Drug information:- Raltegravir is an Anti-microbial drug further classified as anti-viral agent of the class integrase inhibitor. It is used either signally or in combination with other drugs for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and further clinical trials are in process.
Raltegravir (RAL, Isentress, formerly MK-0518) is an antiretroviral drug produced by Merck & Co., used to treat HIV infection.[1] It received approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on 12 October 2007, the first of a new class of HIV drugs, the integrase inhibitors, to receive such approval.[2][3]
In December 2011, it received FDA approval for pediatric use in patients ages 2–18, taken in pill form orally twice a day by prescription with two other antiretroviral medications to form the cocktail (most anti-HIV drugs regimens for adults and children use these cocktails). Raltegravir is available in chewable form but- because the two tablet formulations are not interchangeable- the chewable pills are only approved for use in children two to 11. Older adolescents will use the adult formulation.[4]
Raltegravir targets integrase, an HIV enzyme that integrates the viral genetic material into human chromosomes, a critical step in the pathogenesis of HIV. The drug is metabolized away via glucuronidation.[5]



Isentress tablets
Raltegravir is taken orally twice daily.[3] Doses of 200, 400, and 600 mg have been studied.
At the 2007 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections, researchers presented Phase III data showing that 77% of patients taking the 400 mg dose of raltegravir plus other antiretroviral drugs reached HIV viral loads below 400 copies, nearly twice as many compared with a control group.


Raltegravir was initially approved only for use in individuals whose infection has proven resistant to otherHAART drugs.[3] However, in July 2009, the FDA granted expanded approval for Raltegravir for use in all patients.[6] As with any HAART medication, raltegravir is unlikely to show durability if used as monotherapy.


In a study of the drug as part of combination therapy, raltegravir exhibited potent and durable antiretroviral activity similar to that of efavirenz at 24 and 48 weeks but achieved HIV-1 RNA levels below detection at a more rapid rate. After 24 and 48 weeks of treatment, raltegravir did not result in increased serum levels of total cholesterollow-density lipoprotein cholesterol, or triglycerides.[7][8]


Raltegravir significantly alters HIV viral dynamics and decay and further research in this area is ongoing. In clinical trials patients taking raltegravir achieved viral loads less than 50 copies per millitre sooner than those taking similarly potent Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors orProtease Inhibitors. This statistically significant difference in viral load reduction has caused some HIV researchers to begin questioning long held paradigms about HIV viral dynamics and decay.[9] Research into raltegravir's ability to affect latent viral reservoirs and possibly aid in the eradication of HIV is currently ongoing.[10]
Research results were published in the New England Journal of Medicine on July 24, 2008. The authors concluded that "raltegravir plus optimized background therapy provided better viral suppression than optimized background therapy alone for at least 48 weeks." [11]
Research on human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) terminase proteins demonstrated that Raltegravir may block viral replication of the herpesviruses.[12]
In January 2013, a Phase II trial was initiated to evaluate the therapeutic benefit of raltegravir in treating multiple sclerosis (MS).[13] The drug is active against Human Endogenous Retroviruses(HERVs) and possibly Epstein-Barr Virus, which have been suggested in the pathogenesis of relapsing-remitting MS.


Raltegravir was generally well tolerated when used in combination with optimized background therapy regimens in treatment-experienced patients with HIV-1 infection in trials of up to 48 weeks' duration.[14]

preparation of Raltegravir is described in US patent 2006122205A1 and also in WO2006060730. Accordingly, 2-amino-2-methyl-propanenitrile 1 was reacted with benzylchloroformate in presence of N,N-diisopropylethylamine using methyl tert-butyl ether as solvent at ambient temperature to give benzyl N-(1-cyano-1-methyl-ethyl)carbamate 2. Treatment of 2 with hydroxyl amine using water as solvent at elevated temperature give benzyl N-[(2Z)-2-amino-2-hydroxyimino-1,1-dimethyl-ethyl]carbamate 3. The compound 3 was further cyclized with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate using methanol as solvent at higher temperature to give methyl 2-(1-benzyloxycarbonylamino-1-methyl-ethyl)-5-hydroxy-6-oxo-1H-pyrimidine-4-carboxylate 4. Compound 4 was then methylated with methyl iodide in presence of magnesium methoxide as base and dimethyl sulfoxide as solvent at ambient temperature to give methyl 2-(1-benzyloxycarbonylamino-1-methyl-ethyl)-5-hydroxy-1-methyl-6-oxo-pyrimidine-4-carboxylate 5. Compound 5 on condensing with 4-fluorobenzyl amine using ethanol as solvent result in to benzyl N-[1-[4-[(4-fluorophenyl)methylcarbamoyl]-5-hydroxy-1-methyl-6-oxo-pyrimidin-2-yl]-1-methyl-ethyl]carbamate 6, which underwent benzyloxy-decarboxylation on hydrogenating with hydrogen gas in presence of 5% Palladium on carbon catalyst and molybdate sulfuric acid using methanol as solvent to give 2-(1-amino-1-methyl-ethyl)-N-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-5-hydroxy-1-methyl-6-oxo-pyrimidine-4-carboxamide 7. The final step involves condensation of 7 with 5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-carbonylchloride in presence of N-methylmorpholine as base using tetrahydrofuran as solvent at slightly lower temperature to afford N-[1-[4-[(4-fluorophenyl)methylcarbamoyl]-5-hydroxy-1-methyl-6-oxo-pyrimidin-2-yl]-1-methyl-ethyl]-5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-carboxamide also called Raltegravir 8.
The formation of the hydroxypyrimidone core (3.22) of raltegravir deserves further discussion as its unexpected mechanism was only recently fully elucidated in a joint effort between Merck process chemists and the Houk group at UCLA [91]. These studies combined B3LYP density functional theory with labelling studies and revealed that the most likely pathway involves the formation of a tightly bound polar radical pair 3.31 resulting from thermal homolysis of the N–O bond (Scheme 35). This species subsequently recombines under formation of a C–N bond and a C=O double bond (3.32) allowing for the final cyclocondensation to occur with liberation of methanol. Furthermore these studies were able to disprove a potential alternative [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement step by incorporating 15N enriched precursors leading to the formation of pyrimidone 3.22, which is only consistent with a formal [1,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. Subsequent calculations demonstrated the high energy barrier for such a concerted [1,3]-shift, ultimately leading to the finding of the before-mentioned polar radical pair pathway which is about 8 kcal/mol lower in energy. This is consistent with the experimentally observed rate acceleration in case of the Z-isomer of 3.33 over the E-isomer which was also confirmed by calculations showing an energy gap of 3 kcal/mol.
