This pUblication contains the Review Lectures presented at a joint
NATO Advanced Study Institute and FEES Advanced Study Course held
at Les Arcs, Bourg-8aint-Maurice, France, from the 19th June - 2nd
July 1983. The Course, entitled "Targets for the Design of
Antiviral Agents" was in some ways a sequel to the NATO-FEES Course
held at SOGESTA (near Urbino), Italy from the 7th - 18th May 1979
and published as volume A26 in this series. During the subsequent
four years, we have witnessed the first of the "new generation" of
antiviral compounds, which are more efficacious and less toxic than
the "classical" antiviral drugs, reach the clinic and we felt that
it w s the right time to assess the future prospects of this verY
important and exciting field. The vast majority of the drugs
developed recently have proved active against various members of
the herpesvirus family and elsewhere in this publication we learn
that the cure for only rather few viral diseases, such as the
common cold, influenza and herpes, promises the return on
investment required by the pharmaceutical industry. However, the
aim of this Course was for eminent virologists to identify possible
targets among the various virus classes against which the chemists
could then design suitable therapeutic agents. Recent advances with
antiherpesvirus drugs have shown that a far greater selectivity and
therapeutic index can be obtained than was previously thought to be
possible.
