Glecaprevir was identified as a potent HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitor, and an enabling synthesis was required to support the preclinical evaluation and subsequent Phase I clinical trials. The enabling route to glecaprevir was established through further development of the medicinal chemistry route. The key steps in the synthesis involved a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction to form the 18-membered macrocycle and a challenging fluorination step to form a key amino acid. The enabling route was successfully used to produce 41 kg of glecaprevir, sufficient to support the preclinical evaluation and early clinical development.
