Recently we described a novel class of imidazopyridine compounds that showed exceptional anti-RSV potency in cell culture. However, unfavorable pharmacokinetic (PK) properties and glutathione (GSH) adduct liabilities impeded their further development. In a bid to address the PK and early safety concerns, a small compound library consisting of dozens of scaffold-hopping analogues was designed and synthesized for RSV CPE assay screening, which led to the identification of a new chemical starting point: methylsulfonyl indole compound 8. In this paper, we report the discovery and optimization of a series of methylsulfonyl indazoles as potent RSV fusion inhibitors. In particular, compound 47 was orally efficacious in a RSV mouse model, with 1.6 log unit viral load reduction at 25 mg/kg BID upon oral dosing. The results may have broad implications for the design of new RSV fusion inhibitors, and demonstrate the potential for developing novel therapies for RSV infection.
