The in vitro susceptibilities of human herpesvirus 6 to foscarnet; the guanosine analogs acyclovir, ganciclovir, and two isomers of 9-[4-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)butyl]guanine; and the thymidine analogs 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine and 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-E-5-(2-bromovinyl)uracil were investigated. All compounds except 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine and 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-E-5-(2-bromovinyl)uracil inhibited human herpesvirus 6 replication. The highest in vitro selectivity was obtained for 9-[4-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)butyl]guanine.
