Ciclopirox inhibits Hepatitis B Virus secretion by blocking capsid assembly
Current treatments for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are not curative. Here, the authors show that an antifungal drug, ciclopirox, inhibits HBV capsid assembly and synergizes with nucleoside/nucleotide analogs to prevent HBV replication in cells and in a humanized liver mouse model.
