I've seen some of the data on the TRMS compound. The mechanism seems to be solid, and the data is quite compelling. There are several papers out, primarily from Peter Kim's lab, that provide structural data verifying the mechanism of viral entry. Of course this does not appear to apply for the chemokine co-receptor mechanisms. Of interest is that the TRMS peptide has sufficient stability to to do the job for a significant period of time. The only question is will it only be of use and be cost effective in protease inhibitor resistant patients.
