Discovery of novel 5-(ethyl or hydroxymethyl) analogs of 2′-'up' fluoro (or hydroxyl) pyrimidine nucleosides as a new class of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium inhibitors

Discovery of novel antimycobacterial compounds that work on distinctive targets and by diverse mechanisms of action is urgently required for the treatment of mycobacterial infections due to the emerging global health threat of tuberculosis. We have identified a new class of 5-ethyl or hydroxy (or methoxy) methyl-substituted pyrimidine nucleosides as potent inhibitors of Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37Ra, H37Rv) and Mycobacterium avium. A series of 2′-'up' fluoro (or hydroxy) nucleosides (1, 2, 4-6, 9, 10, 13, 16, 18, 21, 24) was synthesized and evaluated for antimycobacterial activity. Among 2′-fluorinated compounds, 1-(3-bromo-2,3-dideoxy-2-fluoro- β-d-arabinofuranosyl)-5-ethyluracil (13) exhibited promising activity against M. bovis and Mtb alone, and showed synergism when combined with isoniazid. The most active compound emerging from these studies, 1-(β-d-arabinofuranosyl)-4-thio-5-hydroxymethyluracil (21) inhibited Mtb (H37Ra) (MIC50 = 0.5 μg/mL) and M. bovis (MIC50 = 0.5 μg/mL) at low concentrations, and was ten times more potent against Mtb (H37Ra) than cycloserine (MIC50 = 5.0 μg/mL), a second line drug. It also showed an additive effect when combined with isoniazid. Compound 21 retained sensitivity against a rifampicin-resistant (H37Rv) strain of Mtb (MIC50 = 1 μg/mL) at concentrations similar to that for a rifampicin-sensitive (H37Rv) strain, suggesting that it has no cross-resistance to a first-line anti-TB drug. In addition, the replication of M. avium was also inhibited by 21 (MIC50 = 10 μg/mL). No cellular toxicity of 13 or 21 was observed up to the highest concentration tested (CC50 > 100 μg/mL). These observations offer promise for a new drug treatment regimen to augment and complement the current chemotherapy of TB.

Antiviral activity of various 1-(2′-Deoxy-β- d -lyxofuranosyl), 1-(2′-Fluoro-β- d -xylofuranosyl), 1-(3′-Fluoro-β- d -arabinofuranosyl), and 2′-fluoro-2′,3′-didehydro-2′, 3′-dideoxyribose pyrimidine nucleoside analogues against duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) and human hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication

Despite the existence of successful vaccine and antiviral therapies, infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) continues to be a major global cause of acute and chronic liver disease and high mortality. We synthesized and evaluated several lyxofuranosyl, 2′-fluoroxylofuranosyl, 3′- fluoroarabinofuranosyl, and 2′-fluoro-2′,3′-didehydro- 2′,3′-dideoxyribose pyrimidine nucleoside analogues for antiviral activities against hepatitis B virus. Among the compounds examined, 1-(2-deoxy-β-d-lyxofuranosyl)thymine (23), 1-(2-deoxy-β-d- lyxofuranosyl)-5-trifluoromethyluracil (25), 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-β-d- xylofuranosyl)uracil (38), 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-β-d-xylofuranosyl)thymine (39), 2′,3′-dideoxy-2′,3′-didehydro-2′- fluorothymidine (48), and 2′,3′-dideoxy-2′,3′-didehydro- 2′-fluoro-5-ethyluridine (49) were found to possess significant anti-HBV activity against DHBV in primary duck hepatocytes with EC50 values of 4.1, 3.3, 40.6, 3.8, 0.2, and 39.0 μM, respectively. Compounds 23, 25, 39, 48, and 49 (EC50 = 41.3, 33.7, 19.2, 2.0-4.1, and 39.0 μM, respectively) exhibited significant activity against wild-type human HBV in 2.2.15 cells. Intriguingly, 25, 39, 48, and 49 retained sensitivity against lamivudine-resistant HBV containing a single mutation (M204I) and 48 emerged as an effective inhibitor of drug-resistant HBV with an EC50 of 4.1 μM. In contrast, 50% inhibition could not be achieved by lamivudine at 44 μM concentration in the drug-resistant strain. The compounds investigated did not show cytotoxicity to host cells up to the highest concentrations tested.

NUCLEOSIDES FOR SUPPRESSING OR REDUCING THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESISTANCE IN CYTOSTATIC THERAPY

The invention relates to special nucleosides, for example, a nucleoside of the formula I, wherein R1-R5 are as described herein, and also to drugs which contain these nucleosides. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of such nucleosides in a method for suppressing or reducing the formation of resistance in the case of cytostatic treatment of a cancer patient.
