The 5-substituted 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl (araU) analogues, (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-araU (BrVaraU) and 5-vinyl-araU (VaraU), which can be considered as structural analogues of (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BrVUdR), are potent and selective inhibitors of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) replication in vitro. BrVaraU and VaraU have been compared with BrVUdR for their therapeutic effect on acute HSV-1 keratitis in rabbits. Both araU derivatives applied as 0.1% eyedrops suppressed the development of keratitis as monitored by the reduced number of herpes efflorescences. The healing effect of BrVaraU and VaraU was less pronounced than that of 0.1% BrVUdR eyedrops, the difference between BrVUdR and VaraU being statistically significant at the 10th day of treatment. As a further indication of the healing effect the number of cornea with opacities seen after cessation of drug treatment were 3.3, 7.4, 27.6 and 46.9% for the BrVUdR-BrVaraU-, VaraU- and placebo-treated eyes, respectively.
