Abstract
The present invention features compounds of Formula (I) and (Ia), pharmaceutical compositions and use in the treatment of viral disease:
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to compounds useful as anti-viral agents. Specifically, the present invention involves novel inhibitors of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) replication.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Infection with HCV is a major cause of human liver disease throughout the world. Although only 30% of acute infections are symptomatic, greater than 85% of infected individuals develop chronic, persistent infection. In the US, an estimated 4.5 million Americans are chronically infected with HCV. Treatment costs for HCV infection have been estimated at $5.46 billion for the US in 1997. Worldwide over 200 million people are estimated to be infected chronically. HCV infection is responsible for 40-60% of all chronic liver disease and 30% of all liver transplants. Chronic HCV infection accounts for 30% of all cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and liver cancer in the U.S.


Alpha-interferon (alone or in combination with ribavirin) has been widely used since its approval for treatment of chronic HCV infection. However, adverse side effects are commonly associated with this treatment: flu-like symptoms, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, depression from interferon, as well as anemia induced by ribavirin (Lindsay, (1997) Hepatology, 26 (suppl 1): 71S-77S).


The HCV NS3-4A protease is considered to be essential for replication of hepatitis C virus (Kolykhalov et al., (2000) Journal of Virology, 74, 2046-2051). Therefore, the use of protease inhibitors, in particular those that are selective HCV serine protease inhibitors have potential in treating HIV infections by inhibiting HCV replication.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention features macrocyclic compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and use of the compounds in treating viral infection, especially HCV infection.

    and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.


The compounds of the present invention may be in the form of their free base or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutically acceptable solvates (including pharmaceutically acceptable solvates of salts) or pharmaceutically acceptable esters thereof.


The present invention also provides a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia).


Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds according to the invention include those derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of suitable acids include hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, nitric, perchloric, fumaric, maleic, phosphoric, glycollic, lactic, salicyclic, succinic, toluene-p-sulfonic, tartaric, acetic, citric, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, formic, benzoic, malonic, naphthalene-2-sulfonic and benzenesulfonic acids. Other acids, such as oxalic, while not in themselves pharmaceutically acceptable, may be employed in the preparation of salts useful as intermediates in obtaining the compounds of the invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts.


Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal (e.g. sodium), alkaline earth metal (e.g., magnesium), ammonium, NW4+ (wherein W is C1-4 alkyl) and other amine salts. Physiologically acceptable salts of a hydrogen atom or an amino group include salts or organic carboxylic acids such as acetic, lactic, tartaric, malic, isethionic, lactobionic and succinic acids; organic sulfonic acids such as methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic and p-toluenesulfonic acids and inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric and sulfamic acids. Physiologically acceptable salts of a compound with a hydroxy group include the anion of said compound in combination with a suitable cation such as Na+, NH4+, and NW4+ (wherein W is a C1-4alkyl group). Preferred salts include sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, choline, meglumine, hydrochloride, and quaternary ammonium.


The invention includes within its scope all possible stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric forms of the salts of the compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia).


The salts of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) may be prepared by contacting appropriate stoichiometric amounts of the free acid with the appropriate base in a suitable solvent. The free acid of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) may for example be in solution with the appropriate base added as a solid or both the free acid of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) and the appropriate acid may independently be in solution.


Suitable solvents for solubilising a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) free acid include for example alcohols such as isopropanol; ketones such as acetone; acetonitrile or toluene. If the base is to be added as a solution in a solvent, the solvent used may include acetone, methanol or water.


The salts of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) may be isolated in solid form by conventional means from a solution thereof obtained as above. For example, a non-crystalline salt may be prepared by precipitation from solution, spray drying or freeze drying of solutions, evaporating a solution to a glass, or vacuum drying of oils, or solidification of melts obtained from reaction of the free base and the acid.


The salts of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) may be prepared by directly crystallising from a solvent in which the salt has limited solubility, or by triturating or otherwise crystallising a non-crystalline salt. For example, organic solvents such as acetone, acetonitrile, butanone, 1-butanol, ethanol, 1-propanol or tetrahydrofuran or mixtures of such solvents may be used. An improved yield of the salts may be obtained by the evaporation of some or all of the solvent or by crystallisation at elevated temperature followed by controlled cooling, for example in stages. Careful control of the precipitation temperature and seeding may be used to improve the reproducibility of the production process and the particle size distribution and form of the product.


Those skilled in the art of organic chemistry will appreciate that many organic compounds can form complexes with solvents in which they are reacted or from which they are precipitated or crystallized. These complexes are known as “solvates”. For example, a complex with water is known as a “hydrate”. Solvates of the compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) are within the scope of the invention. Therefore, the present invention also relates to solvates of the compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia), for example hydrates.


Salts and solvates of compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia) which are suitable for use in medicine are those wherein the counterion or associated solvent is pharmaceutically acceptable. However, salts and solvates having non-pharmaceutically acceptable counterions or associated solvents are within the scope of the present invention, for example, for use as intermediates in the preparation of other compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia) or salts, solvates or esters thereof and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates.


Furthermore, some of the crystalline forms of the compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia) or salts and solvates thereof may exist in one or more polymorphic form, which are included in the present invention.


It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that certain protected derivatives of compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia), which may be made prior to a final deprotection stage, may not possess pharmacological activity as such, but may, in certain instances, be administered orally or parenterally and thereafter metabolised in the body to form compounds defined in the first aspect which are pharmacologically active. Such derivatives may therefore be described as “prodrugs”. All protected derivatives and prodrugs of compounds defined in the first aspect are included within the scope of the invention. Examples of suitable pro-drugs for the compounds of the present invention are described in Drugs of Today, Volume 19, Number 9, 1983, pp 499-538 and in Topics in Chemistry, Chapter 31, pp 306-316 and in “Design of Prodrugs” by H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985, Chapter 1 (the disclosures in which documents are incorporated herein by reference). It will further be appreciated by those skilled in the art, that certain moieties, known to those skilled in the art as “pro-moieties”, for example as described by H. Bundgaard in “Design of Prodrugs” (the disclosure in which document is incorporated herein by reference) may be placed on appropriate functionalities when such functionalities are present within the compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia). Suitable prodrugs for compounds of Formula (I) or


(la) or salts, solvates or esters thereof include: esters, carbonate esters, hemi-esters, phosphate esters, nitro esters, sulfate esters, sulfoxides, amides, carbamates, azo-compounds, phosphamides, glycosides, ethers, acetals and ketals.


The present invention features a pharmaceutically acceptable ester of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia).


Esters of the compounds of the present invention are independently selected from the following groups: (1) carboxylic acid esters obtained by esterification of the hydroxy groups, in which the non-carbonyl moiety of the carboxylic acid portion of the ester grouping is selected from straight or branched chain alkyl (for example, acetyl, n-propyl, t-butyl, or n-butyl), alkoxyalkyl (for example, methoxymethyl), aralkyl (for example, benzyl), aryloxyalkyl (for example, phenoxymethyl), aryl (for example, phenyl optionally substituted by, for example, halogen, C1-4alkyl, or C1-4alkoxy or amino); (2) sulfonate esters, such as alkyl- or aralkylsulfonyl (for example, methanesulfonyl); (3) amino acid esters (for example, L-valyl or L-isoleucyl); (4) phosphonate esters and (5) mono-, di- or triphosphate esters. The phosphate esters may be further esterified by, for example, a C1-20 alcohol or reactive derivative thereof, or by a 2,3-di (C6-24)acyl glycerol.


In such esters, unless otherwise specified, any alkyl moiety present advantageously contains from 1 to 18 carbon atoms, particularly from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, more particularly from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Any cycloalkyl moiety present in such esters advantageously contains from 3 to 6 carbon atoms. Any aryl moiety present in such esters advantageously comprises a phenyl group.


While it is possible for the active ingredient to be administered alone, it is preferable to present it as a pharmaceutical composition. The compositions of the present invention comprise at least one active ingredient, as defined above, together with one or more acceptable carriers thereof and optionally other therapeutic agents. Each carrier must be acceptable in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the composition and not injurious to the patient.


Pharmaceutical compositions include those suitable for oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including transdermal, buccal and sublingual), vaginal or parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intradermal, and intravitreal) administration. The compositions may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any methods well known in the art of pharmacy. Such methods represent a further feature of the present invention and include the step of bringing into association the active ingredients with the carrier, which constitutes one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the compositions are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association the active ingredients with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both, and then if necessary shaping the product.


The present invention further includes a pharmaceutical composition as hereinbefore defined wherein a compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and another therapeutic agent are presented separately from one another as a kit of parts.


Compositions suitable for transdermal administration may be presented as discrete patches adapted to remain in intimate contact with the epidermis of the recipient for a prolonged period of time. Such patches suitably contain the active compound 1) in an optionally buffered, aqueous solution or 2) dissolved and/or dispersed in an adhesive or 3) dispersed in a polymer. A suitable concentration of the active compound is about 1% to 25%, preferably about 3% to 15%. As one particular possibility, the active compound may be delivered from the patch by electrotransport or iontophoresis as generally described in Pharmaceutical Research 3(6), 318 (1986).


Pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be presented as discrete units such as capsules, caplets, cachets or tablets each containing a predetermined amount of the active ingredients; as a powder or granules; as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous or non-aqueous liquid; or as an oil-in-water liquid emulsion or a water-in-oil liquid emulsion. The active ingredient may also be presented as a bolus, electuary or paste.


A tablet may be made by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets may be prepared by compressing in a suitable machine the active ingredients in a free-flowing form such as a powder or granules, optionally mixed with a binder (e.g. povidone, gelatin, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose), lubricant, inert diluent, preservative, disintegrant (e.g. sodium starch glycollate, cross-linked povidone, cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose) surface-active or dispersing agent. Molded tablets may be made by molding a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent in a suitable machine. The tablets may optionally be coated or scored and may be formulated so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredients therein using, for example, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose in varying proportions to provide the desired release profile. Tablets may optionally be provided with an enteric coating, to provide release in parts of the gut other than the stomach.


Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for topical administration in the mouth include lozenges comprising the active ingredients in a flavored base, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth; pastilles comprising the active ingredient in an inert basis such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia; and mouthwashes comprising the active ingredient in a suitable liquid carrier.


Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for vaginal administration may be presented as pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or spray. Pharmaceutical compositions may contain in addition to the active ingredient such carriers as are known in the art to be appropriate.


Pharmaceutical compositions for rectal administration may be presented as a suppository with a suitable carrier comprising, for example, cocoa butter or a salicylate or other materials commonly used in the art. The suppositories may be conveniently formed by admixture of the active combination with the softened or melted carrier(s) followed by chilling and shaping in molds.


Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for parenteral administration include aqueous and nonaqueous isotonic sterile injection solutions which may contain anti-oxidants, buffers, bacteriostats and solutes which render the pharmaceutical composition isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient; and aqueous and non-aqueous sterile suspensions which may include suspending agents and thickening agents; and liposomes or other microparticulate systems which are designed to target the compound to blood components or one or more organs. The pharmaceutical compositions may be presented in unit-dose or multi-dose sealed containers, for example, ampoules and vials, and may be stored in a freeze-dried (lyophilized) condition requiring only the addition of the sterile liquid carrier, for example water for injection, immediately prior to use. Extemporaneous injection solutions and suspensions may be prepared from sterile powders, granules and tablets of the kind previously described.


Unit dosage pharmaceutical compositions include those containing a daily dose or daily subdose of the active ingredients, as hereinbefore recited, or an appropriate fraction thereof.


It should be understood that in addition to the ingredients particularly mentioned above the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may include other agents conventional in the art having regard to the type of pharmaceutical composition in question, for example, those suitable for oral administration may include such further agents as sweeteners, thickeners and flavoring agents.


The present invention features a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for use in human or veterinary medical therapy, particularly in the treatment of viral infection, particularly flavivirus infection, for example HCV infection.


It will further be appreciated that references herein to treatment or prophylaxis of HCV infection include treatment or prophylaxis of HCV-associated disease such as liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.


The present invention also features a method for the treatment of an animal subject, for example a human subject, with viral infection, particularly HCV infection, which method comprises administering to said subject an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.


The present invention also features the use of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of viral infection, particularly HCV infection.


In general a suitable dose for each of the above-mentioned conditions will be in the range of 0.01 to 250 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient (e.g. a human) per day, preferably in the range of 0.1 to 100 mg per kilogram body weight per day and most preferably in the range 0.5 to 30 mg per kilogram body weight per day and particularly in the range 1.0 to 20 mg per kilogram body weight per day. Unless otherwise indicated, all weights of active ingredient are calculated as the parent compound of formula (I) or (Ia); for salts or esters thereof, the weights would be increased proportionally. The desired dose may be presented as one, two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day. In some cases the desired dose may be given on alternative days. These sub-doses may be administered in unit dosage forms, for example, containing 10 to 1000 mg or 50 to 500 mg, preferably 20 to 500 mg, and most preferably 50 to 400 mg of active ingredient per unit dosage form.


Compounds of the present invention are useful as inhibitors of HCV NS3-4A protease. One aspect of the instant invention relates to methods of treating or preventing viral infection, for example an HCV infection, in a biological sample comprising contacting the biological sample with a compound of formula (I) or (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

The active ingredient(s) and pharmaceutically active agents may be administered simultaneously (i.e., concurrently) in either the same or different pharmaceutical compositions or sequentially in any order. The amounts of the active ingredient(s) and pharmaceutically active agent(s) and the relative timings of administration will be selected in order to achieve the desired combined therapeutic effect.


When a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is used in combination with a second therapeutic agent active against the same disease state, the dose of each compound may differ from that when the compound is used alone. Appropriate doses will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art. It will be appreciated that the amount of a compound of Formula (I) or (Ia) or a salt thereof required for use in treatment will vary with the nature of the condition being treated and the age and the condition of the patient and will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant physician or veterinarian. The pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may also be used in combination with other therapeutic agents, for example immune therapies [e.g. interferon, such as interferon alfa-2a (ROFERON®-A; Hoffmann-La Roche), interferon alpha-2b (INTRON®-A; Schering-Plough), interferon alfacon-1 (1NFERGEN®; Intermune), peginterferon alpha-2b (PEGINTRON™; Schering-Plough) or peginterferon alpha-2a (PEGASYS®; Hoffmann-La Roche)], therapeutic vaccines, antifibrotic agents, anti-inflammatory agents [such as corticosteroids or NSAIDs], bronchodilators [such as beta-2 adrenergic agonists and xanthines (e.g. theophylline)], mucolytic agents, anti-muscarinics, anti-leukotrienes, inhibitors of cell adhesion [e.g. ICAM antagonists], anti-oxidants [e.g. N-acetylcysteine], cytokine agonists, cytokine antagonists, lung surfactants and/or antimicrobial, anti-viral agents [e.g. nitazoxanide, ribavirin and amantidine], and anti-HCV agents [for example HCV NS3 protease inhibitors, e.g. TMC435350 (Medivir; Tibotec), BI201335 (Boehringer-Ingelheim), MK-7009 (Merck), VX950 (telapravir; Vertex), SCH503034 (Schering Plough) or ITMN191 (Intermune)], or HCV NS5b polymerase inhibitors [for example, VCH-759 (Virochem) or R7128 (Pharmasset/Roche)], HCV NS5A antagonists [e.g. BMS-790052], RNAi agents or cyclophilin inhibitors (for example DEBIO-025). The compositions according to the invention may also be used in combination with gene replacement therapy.


The combinations referred to above may conveniently be presented for use in the form of a pharmaceutical formulation and thus pharmaceutical formulations comprising a combination as defined herein together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier thereof represent a further aspect of the invention.


The individual components of such combinations may be administered either sequentially or simultaneously in separate or combined pharmaceutical formulations. Appropriate doses of known therapeutic agents will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art.


The present invention further includes the use of a compound according to the invention in the manufacture of a medicament for simultaneous or sequential administration with at least another therapeutic agent, such as those defined hereinbefore.


Compounds of the present invention may be administered with an agent known to inhibit or reduce the metabolism of compounds, for example ritonavir. Accordingly, the present invention features a method for the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease as hereinbefore described by administration of a compound of the present invention in combination with a metabolic inhibitor. Such combination may be administered simultaneously or sequentially. In general a suitable dose for each of the above-mentioned conditions will be in the range of 0.01 to 250 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient (e.g. a human) per day, preferably in the range of 0.1 to 100 mg per kilogram body weight per day and most preferably in the range 0.5 to 30 mg per kilogram body weight per day and particularly in the range 1.0 to 20 mg per kilogram body weight per day. Unless otherwise indicated, all weights of active ingredient are calculated as the parent compound of formula (I) or (Ia); for salts or esters thereof, the weights would be increased proportionally. The desired dose may be presented as one, two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day. In some cases the desired dose may be given on alternative days. These sub-doses may be administered in unit dosage forms, for example, containing 1 to 1000 mg or 5 to 500 mg, preferably 2 to 500 mg, and most preferably 1 to 400 mg of active ingredient per unit dosage form.


The compounds of the present invention may be prepared by methods known to one skilled in the art or according to the following reactions schemes and examples, or modifications thereof using readily available starting materials, reagents and conventional synthesis procedures. In these reactions, it is also possible to make use of variants which are known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

Assays

The potential for compounds of Formula (I) or (Ia) or salts thereof to inhibit NS3-4A HCV protease activity was demonstrated, for example, using the following in vitro assay:


Hepatitis C NS3 Protease FRET Assay (RET-S1) Using the HCV Genotype 1a NS3-4A Protease Domain

Compounds were tested as inhibitors of HCV NS3-4A protease domain in 10 μl reactions which contained 50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 20% sucrose, 0.05% NP40, 5 mM DTT, 1 μM 4A peptide (KKGSWIVGRIVLSGKPAIIPKK that served as a cofactor and activated the enzyme in the assay) (prepared by standard synthetic methods), 5 μM RET S1 substrate (Ac-DED(EDANS)EEAbu ψ[COO] ASK(DABCYL)) and 1 nM NS3 protease domain. The RET S1 substrate (Ac-Asp-Glu-Asp(EDANS)-Glu-Glu-Abu-ψ-[COO]-Ala-Ser-Lys(DABCYL)-NH2) was purchased from Anaspec, Inc. (Taliani et. al, 1996, Anal Biochem). “ψ-[COO]” refers to the location of the ester bond within the molecule


Cleavage of the substrate, which is based on the natural NS4A/NS4B junction (DEMEECASHL), was monitored by measuring the increase in fluorescence with 355 nm excitation/495 nm emission in a Molecular Devices SpectraMax Gemini plate reader. Compounds were dissolved in DMSO and tested at 10 μM in duplicate or in dose response curves with usually 10 μM top concentration and 3-fold dilutions. The maximum level of DMSO was 5%. The standard compound in the assay was the compound BILN-2061 (Lamarre at al., (2003) Nature, 426, 186-189).

Protease Domain Compounds of Examples 6-8, 27-28, and 30-36 were found to have an IC50 in the range 0.1-2.0 nM.


Replicon Luciferase Cell Based Assay
Method

A 10 mM stock solution in DMSO of each test compound was further diluted in DMSO in the first row of a 384-well, V-bottom microplate, to give 100 times the top concentration of the required dilution series. Dilutions of compound were prepared in 1:3 serial dilutions from the first row onwards robotically. A robot was also used to transfer 0.5 μL volumes from each dilution well into wells of white 384-well assay plates (Nunc #164610). Control wells received 0.5 μL of DMSO alone. Plates were made in duplicate for measuring HCV replication and cytotoxicity in the replicon cell lines.


Suspensions were prepared from cultures of Huh-7 cells stably transfected with sub-genomic HCV NS3—NS5B replicons of either genotype 1b (the ET subline described by Pietschmann, T., Lohmann, V., Kaul, A., Krieger, N., Rinck, G., Rutter, G., Strand, D. & Bartenschlager, R., Journal of Virology, 2002, 76, 4008-4021) or genotype 1a linked to a firefly luciferase reporter gene. Monolayers nearing confluency were stripped from growth flasks with versene-trypsin solution and the cells re-suspended in assay medium comprising DMEM (Invitrogen #11965-092) supplemented with 5% v/v foetal calf serum, 1% v/v non-essential amino acids solution, 100 units/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 2 mM GlutaMAX-1. 50 μL of suspension containing 5,000 cells of either genotype 1b or genotype 1a luciferase replicon were added to all wells, except medium controls, of the assay plate with a Multidrop Combi (Thermo Scientific Corporation) and the plate incubated for 48 hours at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. A solution of Steady-Glo cytolytic buffer/luciferase substrate (Promega #E2550) was prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions, and 20 μL were added to each well with a Multidrop Combi. To measure cytotoxicity, a solution of CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay reagent (Promega #G7573) was prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions, and 20 ul were added to each well with a Multidrop Combi. The plates were then read for luminescence on an Envision Multilabel Reader (Perkin Elmer)


HCV PI Transient Replicon Assay Protocol:

A model system for HCV RNA replication is a cell based assay using subgenomic or genomic HCV replicons containing HCV genes and possibly a selectable and/or screenable marker. The HCV replicon is a self-replicating RNA that does not produce infectious particles. The HCV PI transient replicons assay was derived from two publications (Science 258, 110, 1999; J Virol 75, 12047, 2001). In this assay, the target cells were “ET Cured cells”, a cell line generated by treating ET replicons cells (RebliKon) with Interferon a for several passages until the HCV genome was cleared. Other modifications to the published protocol included 1) cells were transfected in PBS and 2) were treated for 72 hours with compounds. Data from dose responses was analyzed using BioAssay. EC50 values were generated by plotting percent inhibition against compound concentration. The various HCV mutant replicons were generated by standard molecular biology techniques and confirmed by sequencing.


Data Analysis

Toxicity: The luminescence values from all compound-free wells containing cells were averaged to obtain a positive control value. The mean luminescent value from the compound-free wells that had received no cells was used to provide the negative (background) control value. After the subtraction of the mean background from all values, the readings from wells at each compound concentration were expressed as a percentage of the positive control signal. The BioAssay application (CambridgeSoft) and XC50 module were used to plot the curve of percentage inhibition against compound concentration and derive the 50% toxic concentration (CClC50) for the compound.


Potency: The luminescence values from all compound-free wells containing cells were averaged to obtain a positive control value. The mean luminescence value from the compound-free wells that had received no cells was used to provide the negative (background) control value. After the subtraction of the mean background from all values, the readings from wells at each compound concentration were expressed as a percentage of the positive control signal. The quantifiable and specific reduction of luciferase signal in the presence of a drug is a direct measure of replicon inhibition. The BioAssay application and XC50 module were used to plot the curve of percentage inhibition against compound concentration and derive the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) for the compound.
