Abstract

The disclosed invention provides compositions and methods of treating a Flaviviridae infection, including hepatitis C virus, West Nile Virus, yellow fever virus, and a rhinovirus infection in a host, including animals, and especially humans, using a (2′R)-2′-deoxy-2′-fluoro-2′-C-methyl nucleosides, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof.

Claims

1. A method for the treatment of hepatitis C infection, which comprises:

providing to a human subject in need thereof an antivirally effective amount of a (2′

R)-2′

-deoxy-2′

-fluoro-2′

-C-methyl nucleoside (β

-D) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the structure;
