Fomivirsen sodium is a novel and potent antisense 21 mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide with antiviral activity. As an antiviral agent, it can be used for cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMV). Fomivirsen sodium acts by binding to and degrading the mRNAs encoding CMV immediate-early 2 protein (required for viral replication), thus providing bioactive effects for CMV retinitis by inhibition of virus proliferation.
