Dexelvucitabine is a failed experimental agent for the management of HIV infection. Dexelvucitabine is a cytidine nucleoside analog and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. It was found to inhibit HIV-1 replication in vitro and during Phase II clinical trials, it was found to decrease mean viral load in patients with HIV.[medical citation needed]
On April 3, 2006, Pharmasset and Incyte, the pharmaceutical companies developing dexelvucitabine announced the decision to cease further trials and development of the drug due to an increased incidence of grade 4 hyperlipasemia (an excess of the pancreatic enzyme, lipase) in a phase II trial.[citation needed]
