PSI-6130 is an experimental treatment for hepatitis C. It is a member of a class of antiviral drugs known as nucleoside polymerase inhibitors that was created by chemist Jeremy L. Clark [1];specifically, telaprevir inhibits the hepatitis C virus NS3.4A serine protease.[2]

PSI-6130 is currently being developed by Hoffmann–La Roche as a diisobutyrl ester prodrug, R7128.[3]
