[0249] In Vitro Activity
[0250] Viruses and Cells:
[0251] HSV (HSV-1 Walki, HSV-1F or HSV-2G) was cultivated on Vero cells (ATCC CCL-81) under the following conditions: The cells were grown in M199 medium (5% foetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine, 100 IU/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin) in cell culture bottles at 37° C. and 5% CO2. The cells were splitted twice per week, in each case 1:4. For the infection, the medium was removed, the cells were washed with Hank's solution, detached using 0.05% trypsin, 0.02% EDTA (Seromed L2143) and incubated at a density of 4×105 cells per ml under the abovementioned conditions for 24 hours. The medium was then removed and the virus solution was added at an m.o.i of <0.05 in a volume of 2 ml per 175 cm2 of surface. The medium was incubated under the conditions mentioned for one hour and then made up to a volume of 50 ml per 175 cm2 bottle. 3 days after the infection, the cultures showed clear signs of a cytopathic effect. The virus was released by freezing (−80° C.) and thawing (37° C.) the cultures twice. Cell debris was removed by centrifugation (300 g, 10 min, 4° C.) and the supernatant was frozen down in aliquots at −80° C.
[0252] The virus titre was determined using a plaque assay. To this end, Vero cells were seeded in 24-well plates at a density of 4×105 cells per well and, after 24 hours of incubation (37° C., 5% CO2) infected with dilutions of the virus stock of from 10−2 to 10−12 (100 μl of inoculum). 1 hour after the infection, the medium was removed and the cells were covered with 1 ml of overlay medium (0.5% methylcellulose, 0.22% sodium bicarbonate, 2 mM glutamine, 100 IU/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 5% foetal calf serum in MEM-Eagle medium with Earl's salt) and incubated for 3 days. The cells were then fixated using 4% formaline for 1 hour, washed with water, stained with Giemsa (Merck) for 30 min and then washed and dried. Using a plaque viewer, the virus titre was determined. The virus stocks used for the experiments had a titre of 1×106/ml-1×108/ml.
[0253] The anti-HSV action was determined in a screening test system in 96-well microtitre plates using various cell lines of neuronal, lymphoid and epithelial origin, such as, for example, Vero (kidney cell line of the green monkey), MEF (murine embryonal fibroblasts), HELF (humane embryonal fibroblasts), NT2 (humane neuronal cell line) or Jurkat (humane lymphoid T-cell line). The effect of the substances on the spreading of the cytopathogenic effect was determined in comparison to the reference substance acyclovir-sodium (ZoviraxR), a clinically approved anti-herpes chemotherapeutic.
[0254] The substances (50 mM), dissolved in DMSO (dimethyl sulphoxide), are examined on microtitre plates (for example 96-well MTP) in final concentrations of 250-0.5 μM (micromolar) in two replications (4 substances/plate). In the case of potent substances, the dilutions are continued for several plates up to 0.5 pM (picomolar). Also examined are toxic and cytostatic effects of the substances. After an appropriate dilution of the substances (1:2) on the microtitre plate in medium, a suspension of cells (1×104 cells per well) such as, for example, of Vero cells in M199 (medium 199) with 5% foetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine and optionally 100 IU/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin or of MEF cells in EMEM (Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium) with 10% foetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine and optionally 100 IU/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin, or of HELF cells in EMEM with 10% foetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine and optionally 100 IU/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin, or of NT2- and Jurkat cells in DMEM (4.5 mg/l glucose plus pyridoxin) with 10% foetal calf serum, 2 mM glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, non-essential amino acids and optionally 100 IU/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin is added to each well and the cells in the relevant wells are infected with an appropriate amount of virus (HSV-1 F or HSV-2 G having an m.o.i (multiplicity of infection) of 0.0025 for HELF, Vero and MEF cells and an m.o.i of 0.1 for NT2 and Jurkat cells). The plates are then incubated at 37° C. in a CO2 incubator (5% CO2) for several days. After this time, the cell lawn of, for example, Vero cells in the substance-free virus controls, starting from 25 infection centres, is completely destroyed or lysed by the cytopathogenic effect of the HSV viruses (100% CPE). The plates are initially evaluated visually using a microscope and then analysed using a fluorescent dye. To this end, the cell supernatant of all wells of the MTP is aspirated and the wells are filled with 200 μl of PBS wash solution. The PBS is then aspirated and all the wells are filled with 200 μl of fluorescent dye solution (fluorescein diacetate, 10 μg/ml in PBS). After an incubation time of 30-90 min, the test plates are read in a fluorescence detector at an excitation wavelength of 485 nm and an emission wavelength of 538 nm.
[0255] The results for some compounds are summarized in the table below.

[0256] Here, IC50 is the half-maximal fluorescence intensity with respect to the non-infected cell control (100% value). The IC50 value can also be referenced to a suitable active compound control (see description of the assay: infected cells in the presence of suitable concentrations of a substance having anti-herpes action, such as, for example, Zovirax 20 μM). This active compound control reaches fluorescence intensities of about 85 to 95% with respect to the cell control.
[0257] Preference is given to N-[5-(aminosulphonyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]acetamide derivatives according to the invention whose IC50 (HSV-1 F/Vero) in the in-vitro screening test system described above is preferably below 50 μM, more preferably below 25 μM and very particularly preferably below 10 μM.
[0258] The compounds according to the invention are thus useful active compounds for the treatment and prophylaxis of disorders caused by herpes viruses, in particular Herpes simplex viruses. Examples of indication areas which may be mentioned are:
[0259] 1) Treatment and prophylaxis of herpes infections, in particular Herpes simplex infections in patients displaying symptoms such as Herpes labialis, Herpes genitalis, and HSV-related keratitis, encephalitis, pneumonia, hepatitis etc.
[0260] 2) Treatment and prophylaxis of herpes infections, in particular Herpes simplex infections, in patients with a suppressed immune system (for example AIDS patients, cancer patients, patients having a genetic immunodeficiency, transplant patients)
[0261] 3) Treatment and prophylaxis of herpes infections, in particular Herpes simplex infections, in new-born children and infants
[0262] 4) Treatment and prophylaxis of herpes infections, in particular Herpes simplex infections, and in herpes-positive patients, in particular Herpes-simplex-positive patients, for suppressing recurrence (suppression therapy)
[0263] In-Vivo Action
[0264] Animals:
[0265] 6 week-old female mice, BALB/cABom strain were obtained from a commercial breeder (Bomholtgard Breeding and Research Centre Ltd.).
[0266] Infection:
[0267] The animals were anaesthetized with diethyl ether (Merck) in a sealed glass vessel. 50 μl of a dilution of the virus stock (infection dose 5×104 Pfu) were introduced into the nose of the anaesthetized animals using an Eppendorf pipette. In 90-100% of the animals, this infection dose causes death by a generalized infection with prominent respiratory and central-nervous symptoms on average after 5 to 8 days.
[0268] Treatment and Assessment:
[0269] 6 hours after the infection, the animals were treated with doses of 0.1-100 mg/kg of body mass, 3 times per day, at 7 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m., for a period of 5 days. The substances were pre-dissolved in DMSO and resuspended in tylose/PBS (Hoechst) (final concentration 1.5% DMSO, 0.5% tylose in PBS).
[0270] After the last administration, the animals were monitored further and the time of death was determined.
[0271] A comparison of the survival curves showed for the compound of Example 57, for example, an ED50 of about 0.7 mg/kg for HSV-2, where ED50 means that 50% of the animals survive at this dose.
[0272] The novel active compounds can be converted in a known manner into the customary formulations, such as tablets, sugar-coated tablets, pills, granules, aerosols, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions, using inert, nontoxic, pharmaceutically suitable carriers and solvents. Here, the therapeutically active compound should in each case be present in a concentration of about 0.5 to 90% by weight of the total mixture, i.e. in amounts which are sufficient to achieve the dosage range indicated.
[0273] The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifiers and/or dispersants, it being possible, for example, if the diluent used is water, to use, if appropriate, organic solvents as auxiliary solvents.
[0274] Administration is carried out in a customary manner, preferably orally, parenterally or topically, in particular perlingually or intravenously.
[0275] In the case of parenteral administration, solutions of the active compounds using suitable liquid carrier materials can be employed.
[0276] In general, it has proved advantageous in the case of intravenous administration to administer amounts of from approximately 0.001 to 20 mg/kg, preferably approximately 0.01 to 10 mg/kg, of bodyweight to achieve effective results, and in the case of oral administration the dose is approximately 0.01 to 30 mg/kg, preferably 0.1 to 20 mg/kg, of bodyweight.
[0277] In spite of this, it may be necessary, if appropriate, to depart from the amounts mentioned, namely depending on the bodyweight or on the type of administration route, on the individual response to the medicament, the manner of its formulation and the time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be adequate to manage with less than the abovementioned minimum amount, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded. In the case of the administration of relatively large amounts, it may be advisable to divide this into several individual administrations over the course of the day.
[0278] If appropriate, it may be useful to combine the compounds according to the invention with other active substances, in particular antiviral active substances.
