Herein, we report the discovery of several NS5A inhibitors with potency against HCV genotype 1b in the picomolar range. Compounds (15, 33) were of extremely high potency against HCV genotype 1b (EC50 ≈ 1 pM), improved activity against genotype 3a (GT 3a) and good metabolic stability. We studied the impact of changing the cap conformation relative to the diphenylethyne core and/or compound symmetry on both potency and metabolic stability. The analogs obtained exhibited improved potency against HCV genotypes 1a, 1b, 3a and 4a compared to the clinically approved candidate daclatasvir with EC50 values in the low picomolar range and SI50s > 7 orders of magnitude. Compound 15, a symmetrically m-, m’-substituted diphenyl ethyne analog, was 150-fold more potent than daclatasvir against GT 3a, while compound 33, an asymmetrically m-, p-substituted diphenyl ethyne analog, was 35-fold more potent than daclatasvir against GT 3a. In addition, compound 15 exhibited a higher resistance barrier than daclatasvir against genotype 1b.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an international challenge. Since the discovery of NS5A direct-acting antivirals, researchers turned their attention to pursue novel NS5A inhibitors with optimized design and structure. Herein we explore highly potent hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5A inhibitors; the novel analogs share a common symmetrical prolinamide 2,7-diaminofluorene scaffold. Modification of the 2,7-diaminofluorene backbone included the use of (S)-prolinamide or its isostere (S,R)-piperidine-3-caboxamide, both bearing different amino acid residues with terminal carbamate groups. Compound 26 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against HCV genotype (GT) 1b (effective concentration (EC50) = 36 pM and a selectivity index of >2.78 × 106). Compound 26 showed high selectivity on GT 1b versus GT 4a. Interestingly, it showed a significant antiviral effect against GT 3a (EC50 = 1.2 nM). The structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that picomolar inhibitory activity was attained with the use of S-prolinamide capped with R- isoleucine or R-phenylglycine residues bearing a terminal alkyl carbamate group.

Novel symmetric molecules, bearing a benzidine prolinamide core, two terminal carbamate caps of variable sizes and nature, including natural and unnatural amino acids were developed. Several terminal N-carbamate substituents of the core structure, ranging from linear methyl, ethyl and butyl groups to branching isobutyl group; and an aromatic substituent were also synthesized. Series 1 has hydrophobic AA residues, namely S and R phenylglycine and a terminal carbamate capping group, whereas Series 2 bears sulphur containing amino acids, specifically S and R methionine and the natural R methylcysteine. The novel compounds were tested for their inhibitory activity (EC50) and their cytotoxicity (CC50), using an HCV 1b (Con1) reporter replicon cell line. Compound 4 with the unnatural capping residue, bearing D-Phenylglycine amino acid residue and N-isobutyloxycarbonyl capping group, was the most active within the two series, with EC50 = 0.0067 nM. Moreover, it showed high SI50 > 14788524 and was not cytotoxic at the highest tested concentration (100 μΜ), indicating its safety profile. Compound 4 also inhibited HCV genotypes 2a, 3a and 4a. Compared to the clinically approved NS5A inhibitor Daclatasvir, compound 4 shows higher activity against genotypes 1b and 3a, as well as improved safety profile.

A medicinal chemistry program based on the small-molecule HCV NS5A inhibitor daclatasvir has led to the discovery of dimeric phenylthiazole compound 8, a novel and potent HCV NS5A inhibitor. The subsequent SAR studies and optimization revealed that the cycloalkyl amide derivatives 27a-29a exhibited superior potency against GT1b with GT1b EC50 values at picomolar concentration. Interestingly, high diastereospecificity for HCV inhibition was observed in this class with the (1R,2S,1′R,2′S) diastereomer displaying the highest GT1b inhibitory activity. The best inhibitor 27a was found to be 3-fold more potent (GT1b EC50 = 0.003 nM) than daclatasvir (GT1b EC50 = 0.009 nM) against GT1b, and no detectable in vitro cytotoxicity was observed (CC50 > 50 μM). Pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated that compound 27a had an excellent pharmacokinetic profiles with a superior oral exposure and desired bioavailability after oral administration in both rats and dogs, and therefore it was selected as a developmental candidate for the treatment of HCV infection.
