β-D-2′-C-methyl-2,6-diaminopurine ribonucleoside phosphoramidates are potent and selective inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and are bioconverted intracellularly to bioactive 2,6-diaminopurine and guanosine 5′-triphosphate forms

The conversion of selected β-d-2,6-diaminopurine nucleosides (DAPNs) to their phosphoramidate prodrug (PD) substantially blocks the conversion to the G-analog allowing for the generation of two bioactive nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) in human hepatocytes. A variety of 2′-C-methyl DAPN-PDs were prepared and evaluated for inhibition of HCV viral replication in Huh-7 cells, cytotoxicity in various cell lines, and cellular pharmacology in both Huh-7 and primary human liver cells. The DAPN-PDs were pan-genotypic, effective against various HCV resistant mutants, and resistant variants could not be selected. 2′-C-Me-DAPN-TP and 2′-C-Me-GTP were chain terminators for genotype 1b HCV-pol, and single nucleotide incorporation assays revealed that 2′-C-Me-DAPN-TP was incorporated opposite U. No cytotoxicity was observed with our DAPN-PD when tested up to 50 μM. A novel, DAPN-PD, 15c, has been selected for further evaluation because of its good virologic and toxicologic profile and its ability to deliver two active metabolites, potentially simplifying HCV treatment.

The present invention is directed to compounds, compositions and methods for treating or preventing viral infections using nucleoside analog monophosphate prodrugs. More specifically, HCV, Norovirus, Saporovirus, Dengue virus, Chikungunya virus and Yellow fever in human patients or other animal hosts. The compounds are certain 2,6-diamino 2-C-methyl purine nucleoside monophosphate prodrugs and modified prodrug analogs, and pharmaceutically acceptable, salts, prodrugs, and other derivatives thereof. In particular, the compounds show potent antiviral activity against HCV, Norovirus, Saporovirus, Dengue virus, Chikungunya virus and Yellow fever. This invention teaches how to modify the metabolic pathway of 2,6-diamino 2'-C-methyl purine and deliver nucleotide triphosphate(s) to polymerases at heretofore unobtainable therapeutically-relevant concentrations.
