Abstract : SAR exploration from an initial hit, (S)-N-(2-cyclohexenylethyl)-2-fluoro-6-(2-(1-hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-ylamino)-2-oxoethoxy)benzamide (1), identified using our proprietary automated ligand identification system (ALIS),(1) has led to a novel series of selective hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase inhibitors with improved in vitro potency as exemplified by (S)-2-fluoro-6-(2-(1-hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-ylamino)-2-oxoethoxy)-N-isopentyl-N-methylbenzamidecarboxamide (41) (IC(50)=0.5 microM). The crystal structure of an analogue (44) was solved and provided rationalization of the SAR of this series, which binds in a distinct manner in the palm domain of NS5B, consistent with biochemical analysis using enzyme mutant variants. These data warrant further lead optimization efforts on this novel series of non-nucleoside inhibitors targeting the HCV polymerase.

Abstract : Specific inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication that target the NS3/4A protease (e.g., VX-950) or the NS5B polymerase (e.g., R1479/R1626, PSI-6130/R7128, NM107/NM283, and HCV-796) have advanced into clinical development. Treatment of patients with VX-950 or HCV-796 rapidly selected for drug-resistant variants after a 14-day monotherapy treatment period. However, no viral resistance was identified after monotherapy with R1626 (prodrug of R1479) or NM283 (prodrug of NM107) after 14 days of monotherapy. Based upon the rapid selection of resistance to the protease and nonnucleoside inhibitors during clinical trials and the lack of selection of resistance to the nucleoside inhibitors, we used the replicon system to determine whether nucleoside inhibitors demonstrate a higher genetic barrier to resistance than protease and nonnucleoside inhibitors. Treatment of replicon cells with nucleoside inhibitors at 10 and 15 times the 50% effective concentration resulted in clearance of the replicon, while treatment with a nonnucleoside or protease inhibitor selected resistant colonies. In combination, the presence of a nucleoside inhibitor reduced the frequency of colonies resistant to the other classes of inhibitors. These results indicate that the HCV replicon presents a higher barrier to the selection of resistance to nucleoside inhibitors than to nonnucleoside or protease inhibitors. Furthermore, the combination of a nonnucleoside or protease inhibitor with a nucleoside polymerase inhibitor could have a clear clinical benefit through the delay of resistance emergence.

Abstract : To address the need for broad-spectrum antiviral activity characterization of hepatitis C virus (HCV) polymerase inhibitors, we created a panel of intergenotypic chimeric replicons containing nonstructural (NS) protein NS5B sequences from genotype 2b (GT2b), GT3a, GT4a, GT5a, and GT6a HCV isolates. Viral RNA extracted from non-GT1 HCV patient plasma was subjected to reverse transcription. The NS5B region was amplified by nested PCR and introduced into the corresponding region of the GT1b (Con-1) subgenomic reporter replicon by Splicing by Overlap Extension (SOEing) PCR. Stable cell lines were generated with replication-competent chimeras for in vitro antiviral activity determination of HCV nonnucleoside polymerase inhibitors (NNIs) that target different regions of the protein. Compounds that bind to the NNI2 (thiophene carboxylic acid) or NNI3 (benzothiadiazine) allosteric sites showed 8- to >1,280-fold reductions in antiviral activity against non-GT1 NS5B chimeric replicons compared to that against the GT1b subgenomic replicon. Smaller reductions in susceptibility, ranging from 0.2- to 33-fold, were observed for the inhibitor binding to the NNI1 (benzimidazole) site. The inhibitor binding to the NNI4 (benzofuran) site showed broad-spectrum antiviral activity against all chimeric replicons evaluated in this study. In conclusion, evaluation of HCV NNIs against intergenotypic chimeric replicons showed differences in activity spectrum for inhibitors that target different regions of the enzyme, some of which could be associated with specific residues that differ between GT1 and non-GT1 polymerases. Our study demonstrates the utility of chimeric replicons for broad-spectrum activity determination of HCV inhibitors.

Abstract : The hepatitis C virus (HCV) subgenomic replicon is the primary tool for evaluating the activity of anti-HCV compounds in drug discovery research. Despite the prevalence of HCV genotype 1a (approximately 70% of U.S. HCV patients), few genotype 1a reporter replicon cell lines have been described; this is presumably due to the low replication capacity of such constructs in available Huh-7 cells. In this report, we describe the selection of highly permissive Huh-7 cell lines that support robust replication of genotype 1a subgenomic replicons harboring luciferase reporter genes. These novel cell lines support the replication of multiple genotype 1a replicons (including the H77 and SF9 strains), are significantly more permissive to genotype 1a HCV replication than parental Huh7-Lunet cells, and maintain stable genotype 1a replication levels suitable for antiviral screening. We found that the sensitivity of genotype 1a luciferase replicons to known antivirals was highly consistent between individual genotype 1a clonal cell lines but could vary significantly between genotypes 1a and 1b. Sequencing of the nonstructural region of 12 stable replicon cell clones suggested that the enhanced permissivity is likely due to cellular component(s) in these new cell lines rather than the evolution of novel adaptive mutations in the replicons. These new reagents will enhance drug discovery efforts targeting genotype 1a and facilitate the profiling of compound activity among different HCV genotypes and subtypes.

Abstract : In vitro, telaprevir selects subtype-specific resistance pathways for hepatitis C virus GT-1a and GT-1b, as described to have occurred in patients. In GT-1a, the HCV-796 resistance mutation C316Y has low replication capacity (7%) that can be compensated for by the emergence of the mutation L392F or M414T, resulting in an increase in replication levels of > or = 10-fold.

Abstract : HCV-796 is a nonnucleoside inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 5B (NS5B) polymerase, and boceprevir is an inhibitor of the NS3 serine protease. The emergence of replicon variants resistant to the combination of HCV-796 and boceprevir was evaluated. Combining the inhibitors greatly reduced the frequency with which resistant colonies arose; however, some resistant replicon cells could be isolated by the use of low inhibitor concentrations. These replicons were approximately 1,000-fold less susceptible to HCV-796 and 9-fold less susceptible to boceprevir. They also exhibited resistance to anthranilate nonnucleoside inhibitors of NS5B but were fully sensitive to inhibitors of different mechanisms: a pyranoindole, Hsp90 inhibitors, an NS5B nucleoside inhibitor, and pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN). The replicon was cleared from the combination-resistant cells by extended treatment with Peg-IFN. Mutations known to confer resistance to HCV-796 (NS5B C316Y) and boceprevir (NS3 V170A) were present in the combination-resistant replicons. These changes could be selected together and coexist in the same genome. The replicon bearing both changes exhibited reduced sensitivity to inhibition by HCV-796 and boceprevir but had a reduced replicative capacity.

Abstract : Pyridine carboxamide-based inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase were diversified and optimized to a variety of topologically related scaffolds. In particular, the 2-methyl nicotinic acid scaffold was developed into inhibitors with improved biochemical (IC50-GT1b = 0.014 μM) and cell-based HCV replicon potency (EC50-GT1b = 0.7 μM). Biophysical and biochemical characterization identified this novel series of compounds as palm site binders to HCV polymerase.

Abstract : Hepatitis C virus (HCV), like many other flaviviruses, is widely distributed worldwide with estimated chronically infected victims between 170 and 200 million. HCV inherent error-prone RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is an attractive target for medicinal chemists because of the conservative nature of NS5B nucleotide-binding site. In addition, the availability of several crystal structures for HCV RdRp paved the road for conducting rational-based drug design. At the same time, RdRp is responsible for high mutation rate and rapid development of resistance to the clinically-used therapeutics. To improve the viral response, combination therapy is regularly used. The success of co-therapy disciplines depends on targeting two different active sites. This review provides an overview about different scaffolds that target HCV RdPp with insights about their binding modes and possible induced mutant strains.

Abstract : Hepatitis C virus (HCV), like many other flaviviruses, is widely distributed worldwide with estimated chronically infected victims between 170 and 200 million. HCV inherent error-prone RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is an attractive target for medicinal chemists because of the conservative nature of NS5B nucleotide-binding site. In addition, the availability of several crystal structures for HCV RdRp paved the road for conducting rational-based drug design. At the same time, RdRp is responsible for high mutation rate and rapid development of resistance to the clinically-used therapeutics. To improve the viral response, combination therapy is regularly used. The success of co-therapy disciplines depends on targeting two different active sites. This review provides an overview about different scaffolds that target HCV RdPp with insights about their binding modes and possible induced mutant strains.

Abstract : Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a global health challenge, affecting approximately 200 million people worldwide. In this study we developed SAR models with advanced machine learning classifiers Random Forest and k Nearest Neighbor Simulated Annealing for 679 small molecules with measured inhibition activity for NS5B genotype 1b. The activity was expressed as a binary value (active/inactive), where actives were considered molecules with IC50 ≤0.95 μM. We applied our SAR models to various drug-like databases and identified novel chemical scaffolds for NS5B inhibitors. Subsequent in vitro antiviral assays suggested a new activity for an existing prodrug, Candesartan cilexetil, which is currently used to treat hypertension and heart failure but has not been previously tested for anti-HCV activity. We also identified NS5B inhibitors with two novel non-nucleoside chemical motifs.

Abstract : High genetic variability in hepatitis C virus (HCV), emergence of drug resistant viruses and side effects demand the requirement for development of new scaffolds to show an alternate mechanism. Herein, we report discovery of new scaffold I based on 4-hydroxyamino α-pyranone carboxamide as promising anti-HCV agents. A comprehensive structure-activity relationship (SAR) was explored with several newly synthesized compounds. In all promising compounds (17-19, 21-22, 24-25, and 49) with EC50 ranging 0.15 to 0.40 μM, the aryl group at C-6 position of α-pyranone were unsubstituted. In particular, 25 demonstrated potential anti-HCV activity with EC50 of 0.18 μM in cell based HCV replicon system with lower cytotoxicity (CC50 > 20 μM) and provided a new scaffold for anti-HCV drug development. Further investigations, including biochemical characterization, are yet to be performed to elucidate its possible mode of action.

Abstract : This letter describes the discovery of a fused benzofuran scaffold viable for preparing a series of novel potent HCV NS5B polymerase non-nucleoside inhibitors. Designed on the basis of the functionalized benzofuran derivative nesbuvir (HCV-796), these compounds presumably bind similarly to the allosteric binding site in the "palm" domain of HCV NS5B protein. SAR of each potential hydrogen-bonding interaction site of this novel scaffold is discussed along with some preliminary genotypic profile and PK data of several advanced compounds.

Title : Identification of inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 in-vitro cellular toxicity in human (Caco-2) cells using a large scale drug repurposing collection

Authors : Bernhard Ellinger, Denisa Bojkova, Andrea Zaliani, Jindrich Cinatl, Carsten Claussen, Sandra Westhaus, Jeanette Reinshagen, Maria Kuzikov, Markus Wolf, Gerd Geisslinger, Philip Gribbon, Sandra Ciesek
Abstract : To identify possible candidates for progression towards clinical studies against SARS-CoV-2, we screened a well-defined collection of 5632 compounds including 3488 compounds which have undergone clinical investigations (marketed drugs, phases 1 -3, and withdrawn) across 600 indications. Compounds were screened for their inhibition of viral induced cytotoxicity using the human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2 and a SARS-CoV-2 isolate. The primary screen of 5632 compounds gave 271 hits. A total of 64 compounds with IC50 <20 µM were identified, including 19 compounds with IC50 < 1 µM. Of this confirmed hit population, 90% have not yet been previously reported as active against SARS-CoV-2 in-vitro cell assays. Some 37 of the actives are launched drugs, 19 are in phases 1-3 and 10 pre-clinical. Several inhibitors were associated with modulation of host pathways including kinase signaling P53 activation, ubiquitin pathways and PDE activity modulation, with long chain acyl transferases were effective viral inhibitors.

Abstract : Compound repurposing is an important strategy being pursued in the identification of effective treatment against the SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease. In this regard, SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M-Pro), also termed 3CL-Pro, is an attractive drug target as it plays a central role in viral replication by processing the viral polyprotein into 11 non-structural proteins. We report the results of a screening campaign involving ca 8.7 K compounds containing marketed drugs, clinical and preclinical candidates, and chemicals regarded as safe in humans. We confirmed previously reported inhibitors of 3CL-Pro, but we have also identified 68 compounds with IC50 lower than 1 uM and 127 compounds with IC50 lower than 5 uM. Profiling showed 67% of confirmed hits were selective (> 5 fold) against other Cys- and Ser- proteases (Chymotrypsin and Cathepsin-L) and MERS 3CL-Pro. Selected compounds were also analysed in their binding characteristics.

Abstract : Worldwide, there are intensive efforts to identify repurposed drugs as potential therapies against SARS-CoV-2 infection and the associated COVID-19 disease. To date, the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone and (to a lesser extent) the RNA-polymerase inhibitor remdesivir have been shown to be effective in reducing mortality and patient time to recovery, respectively, in patients. Here, we report the results of a phenotypic screening campaign within an EU-funded project (H2020-EXSCALATE4COV) aimed at extending the repertoire of anti-COVID therapeutics through repurposing of available compounds and highlighting compounds with new mechanisms of action against viral infection. We screened 8702 molecules from different repurposing libraries, to reveal 110 compounds with an anti-cytopathic IC50 < 20 µM. From this group, 18 with a safety index greater than 2 are also marketed drugs, making them suitable for further study as potential therapies against COVID-19. Our result supports the idea that a systematic approach to repurposing is a valid strategy to accelerate the necessary drug discovery process.
