Major peak fractions identified by HPLC fractionation were titrated on wild-type (WT) and resistant (Y93H) replicon cells and tested for antiviral activity and toxicity. Nonfractionated BMS-824 and an HCV protease inhibitor (PI) were included as controls.
Fold resistance = Y93H EC50/WT EC50.
Due to the amount of P1 to P6, the highest concentration used for CC50 determination was 5 μM.
