The number of reported cases of Human African Trypanosmiasis (HAT), caused by kinetoplastid protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei, is declining in sub-Saharan Africa. Historically, such declines are generally followed by periods of higher incidence, and one of the lingering public health challenges of HAT is that its drug development pipeline is historically sparse. As a continuation of our work on new antitrypanosomal agents, we found that partially saturated quinoline-based vinyl sulfone compounds selectively inhibit the growth of T. brucei but displayed relatively weak inhibitory activity towards T. brucei's cysteine protease rhodesain. While two nitroaromatic analogues of the quinoline-based vinyl sulfone compounds displayed potent inhibition of T. brucei and rhodesain. The quinoline derivatives and the nitroaromatic-based compounds discovered in this work can serve as leads for ADME-based optimization and pre-clinical investigations.
Oxazolidinones and 2,5-Dihydrofurans via Zinc-Catalyzed Regioselective Allenylation Reactions of l -α-Amino Aldehydes

The simultaneous control of diastereoselectivity and regioselectivity in Zn-catalyzed allenylation reactions of N-protected l-α-amino aldehydes is reported. A reversal in diastereoselectivity could be realized by variation of the α-amino aldehyde protecti

We have prepared a series of cathepsin K inhibitors bearing the keto-1,3,4-oxadiazole warhead capable of forming a hemithioketal complex with the target enzyme. By modifying binding moieties at the P1, P2, and prime side positions of the inhibitors, we have achieved selectivity over cathepsins B, L, and S, and have achieved sub-nanomolar potency against cathepsin K. This series thus represents a promising chemotype that could be used in diseases implicated by imbalances in cathepsin K activity such as osteoporosis.
Methods for treating hepatitis C
-
Page/Page column 540, (2010/11/25)
Methods of treating hepatitis C are provided comprising using a therapeutically effective amount of at least one novel hepatitis C (“HCV”) protease inhibitor or, alternatively, at least one antiviral or immuno-modulating HCV agent, which is not an HCV protease inhibitor, for a first treatment period. Subsequently, a combination of the at least one novel hepatitis C (“HCV”) protease inhibitor and the at least one antiviral or immuno-modulating HCV agent are administered in a therapeutically effective amount for a second treatment period. The methods are provided for treating a wide variety of diseases, disorders and symptoms associated with hepatitis C virus by modulating the activity of HCV protease (for example HCV NS3/NS4a serine protease) in a subject.
