- Structure-activity relationship study on a novel series of cyclopentane-containing macrocyclic inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease leading to the discovery of TMC435350
-
SAR analysis performed with a limited set of cyclopentane-containing macrocycles led to the identification of N-[17-[2-(4-isopropylthiazole-2-yl)-7-methoxy-8-methylquinolin-4-yloxy]- 13-methyl-2,14-dioxo-3,13-diazatricyclo [13.3.0.04,6]octadec-7-ene-4-carbonyl](cyclopropyl)sulfonamid e (TMC435350, 32c) as a potent inhibitor of HCV NS3/4A protease (Ki = 0.36 nM) and viral replication (replicon EC50 = 7.8 nM). TMC435350 also displayed low in vitro clearance and high permeability, which were confirmed by in vivo pharmacokinetic studies. TMC435350 is currently being evaluated in the clinics.

- Discovery of novel potent and selective dipeptide hepatitis C virus NS3/4A serine protease inhibitors
-
Starting from the previously reported HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitor BILN 2061 (1), we have used a fast-follower approach to identify a novel series of HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitors in which (i) the P3 amino moiety and its capping group have been truncated, (ii) a sulfonamide is introduced in the P1 cyclopropyl amino acid, (iii) the position 8 of the quinoline is substituted with a methyl or halo group, and (iv) the ring size of the macrocycle has been reduced to 14 atoms. SAR analysis performed with a limited set of compounds led to the identification of N-{17-[8-chloro-2-(4-isopropylthiazol-2-yl)-7-methoxyquinolin-4-yloxy]-2,14-dioxo-3,15-diazatricyclo [13.3.0.0 [Bartenschlager, R.; Lohmann, V.
