Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to novel compounds and a method for the treatment or prevention of Flavivirus infections using novel compounds.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Hepatitis is a disease occurring throughout the world. It is generally of viral nature, although there are other causes known. Viral hepatitis is by far the most common form of hepatitis. Nearly 750,000 Americans are affected by hepatitis each year, and out of those, more than 150,000 are infected with the hepatitis C virus (“HCV”).

HCV is a positive-stranded RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family and has closest relationship to the pestiviruses that include hog cholera virus and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). HCV is believed to replicate through the production of a complementary negative-strand RNA template. Due to the lack of efficient culture replication system for the virus, HCV particles were isolated from pooled human plasma and shown, by electron microscopy, to have a diameter of about 50-60 nm. The HCV genome is a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA of about 9,600 bp coding for a polyprotein of 3009-3030 amino-acids, which is cleaved co and post-translationally by cellular and two viral proteinases into mature viral proteins (core, E1, E2, p7, NS2, NS3, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, NS5B). It is believed that the structural proteins, E1 and E2, the major glycoproteins are embedded into a viral lipid envelope and form stable heterodimers. It is also believed that the structural core protein interacts with the viral RNA genome to form the nucleocapsid. The nonstructural proteins designated NS2 to NS5 include proteins with enzymatic functions involved in virus replication and protein processing including a polymerase, protease and helicase.

The main source of contamination with HCV is blood. The magnitude of the HCV infection as a health problem is illustrated by the prevalence among high-risk groups. For example, 60% to 90% of hemophiliacs and more than 80% of intravenous drug abusers in western countries are chronically infected with HCV. For intravenous drug abusers, the prevalence varies from about 28% to 70% depending on the population studied. The proportion of new HCV infections associated with post-transfusion has been markedly reduced lately due to advances in diagnostic tools used to screen blood donors.

The only treatment currently available for HCV infection is interferon-α (IFN-α). However, according to different clinical studies, only 70% of treated patients normalize alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels in the serum and after discontinuation of IFN, 35% to 45% of these responders relapse. In general, only 20% to 25% of patients have long-term responses to IFN. Clinical studies have shown that combination treatment with IFN and ribavirin (RIBA) results in a superior clinical response than IFN alone. Different genotypes of HCV respond differently to IFN therapy, genotype 1b is more resistant to IFN therapy than type 2 and 3.

There is therefore a great need for the development of anti-viral agents.

Compounds were evaluated using an in vitro polymerase assay containing purified recombinant HCV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (NS5B protein). HCV NS5B was expressed in insect cells using a recombinant baculovirus as vector. The experimental procedures used for the cloning, expression and purification of the HCV NS5B protein are described below. Follows, are details of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase assays used to test the compounds.

Expression of the HCV NS5B Protein in Insect Cells:

The cDNA encoding the entire NS5B protein of HCV-Bk strain, genotype 1b, was amplified by PCR using the primers NS5Nhe5′ (5′-GCTAGCGCTAGCTCAATGTCCTACACATGG-3′) and XhoNS53′ (5′-CTCGAGCTCGAGCGTCCATCGGTTGGGGAG-3′) and the plasmid pCD 3.8-9.4 as template (Tomei et al, 1993). NS5Nhe5′ and XhoNS53′ contain two NheI and XhoI sites (underlined sequences), respectively, at their 5′ end. The amplified DNA fragment was cloned in the bacterial expression plasmid pET-21b (Novagen) between the restriction sites NheI and XhoI, to generate the plasmid pET/NS5B. This plasmid was later used as template to PCR-amplify the NS5B coding region, using the primers NS5B-H9 (5′-ATACATATGGCTAGCATGTCAATGTCCTACACATGG-3′) and NS5B-R4 (5′-GGATCCGGATCCCGTTCATCGGTTGGGGAG-3′). NS5B-H9 spans a region of 15 nucleotides in the plasmid pET-21b followed by the translation initiation codon (ATG) and 8 nucleotides corresponding to the 5′ end of the NS5B coding region (nt. 7590-7607 in the HCV sequence with the accession number M58335). NS5B-R4 contains two BamHI sites (underlined) followed by 18 nucleotides corresponding to the region around the stop codon in the HCV genome (nt. 9365-9347). The amplified sequence, of 1.8 kb, was digested with NheI and BamHI and ligated to a predigested pBlueBacII plasmid (Invitrogen). The resulting recombinant plasmid was designated pBac/NS5B. Sf9 cells were co-transfected with 3 μg of pBac/NS5B, together with 1 μg of linearized baculovirus DNA (Invitrogen), as described in the manufacturer's protocol. Following two rounds of plaque purification, an NS5B-recombinant baculovirus, BacNS5B, was isolated. The presence of the recombinant NS5B protein was determined by western blot analysis (Harlow and Lane, 1988) of BacNS5B-infected Sf9 cells, using a rabbit polyclonal antiserum (anti-NS5B) raised against a His-tagged version of the NS5B protein expressed in E. coli. Infections of Sf9 cells with this plaque purified virus were performed in one-liter spinner flasks at a cell density of 1.2×10⁶cells/ml and a multiplicity of infection of 5.

Preparation of a Soluble Recombinant NS5B Protein

Sf9 cells were infected as described above. Sixty hours post-infection, cells were harvested then washed twice with phosphate buffer saline (PBS). Total proteins were solubilized as described in Lohmann et al. (1997) with some modifications. In brief, proteins were extracted in three steps, S1, S2, S3, using lysis buffers (LB) I, LB II and LB III (Lohmann et al, 1997). The composition of LBII was modified to contain 0.1% triton X-100 and 150 mM NaCl to reduce the amount of solubilized NS5B protein at this step. In addition, sonication of cell extracts was avoided throughout the protocol to preserve the integrity of the protein structure.

Purification of Recombinant NS5B Using Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography (FPLC):

Soluble NS5B protein in the S3 fraction was diluted to lower the NaCl concentration to 300 mM, then it incubated batchwise with DEAE sepharose beads (Amersham-Pharmacia) for 2 hrs at 4° C., as described by Behrens et al. (1996). Unbound material was cleared by centrifugation for 15 min at 4° C., at 25 000 rpm using a SW41 rotor (Beckman). The supernatant was further diluted to lower the NaCl concentration to 200 mM and subsequently loaded, with a flow rate of 1 ml/min, on a 5 ml HiTrap® heparin column (Amersham-Pharmacia) connected to an FPLC® system (Amersham-Pharmacia). Bound proteins were eluted in 1 ml fractions, using a continuous NaCl gradient of 0.2 to 1 M, over a 25 ml volume. NS5B-containing fractions were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by western blotting using the anti-NS5B antiserum at a dilution of 1:2000. Positive fractions were pooled and the elution buffer was exchanged against a 50 mM NaPO₄pH 7.0, 20% glycerol, 0.5% triton X-100 and 10 mM DTT, using a PD-10 column (Amersham-Pharmacia). The sample was then loaded onto a 1 ml HiTrap® SP column (Amersham-Pharmacia), with a flow rate of 0.1 ml/min. Bound proteins were eluted using a continuous 0 to 1 M NaCl gradient over a 15 ml volume. Eluted fractions were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting. Alternatively, proteins were visualized, following SDS-PAGE, by silver staining using the Silver Stain Plus kit (BioRad) as described by the manufacturer. Positive fractions were tested for RdRp activity (see below) and the most active ones were pooled, and stored as a 40% glycerol solution at −70° C.

In Vitro HCV RdRp Flashplate Scintillation Proximity Assay (STREP-FLASH ASSAY) Used to Evaluate Analogues:

This assay consists on measuring the incorporation of [³H] radiolabelled UTP in a polyrA/biotinylated-oligo dT template-primer, captured on the surface of streptavidin-coated scintillant-embeded microtiter Flashplates™ (NEN Life Science Products inc, MA, USA, SMP 103A). In brief, a 400 ng/μl polyrA solution (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) was mixed volume-to-volume with 5′ biotin-oligo dT₁₅at 20 pmol/μl. The template and primers were denatured at 95 C for 5 minutes then incubated at 37 C for 10 minutes. Annealed template-primers were subsequently diluted in a Tris-HCl containing buffer and allowed to bind to streptavidin-coated flashplates overnight. Unbound material was discarded, compounds were added in a 10 μl solution followed by a 10 μl of a solution containing 50 mM MgCl₂, 100 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 250 mM NaCl and 5 mM DTT. The enzymatic reaction was initiated upon addition of a 30 μl solution containing the enzyme and substrate to obtain the following concentrations: 25 μM UTP, 1 μCi [³H] UTP and 100 nM recombinant HCV NS5B. RdRp reactions were allowed to proceed for 2 hrs at room temperature after which wells were washed three times with a 250 L of 0.15 M NaCl solution, air dried at 37 C, and counted using a liquid scintillation counter (Wallac Microbeta Trilex, Perkin-Elmer, Mass., USA). Results are shown in Table 1.

In Vitro HCV RdRp Filtration Assay Used to Evaluate Analogues

RdRp assays were conducted using the homopolymeric template/primer polyA/oligo dT. All RdRp reactions were performed in a total volume of 50 l, and in a basic buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 50 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 0.5 μCi [γ³²P]-UTP (3000 Ci/mmol), 15 μM cold UTP and 20 U RNasin (Promega). Standard HCV RdRp reactions contained 200 ng of purified NS5B protein. PolyA RNAs (Amersham-Pharmacia) was resuspended at 400 ng/l. The primer oligodT₁₅(Canadian life technologies) was diluted to a concentration of 20 μmol/l (7.6 ng/ml). Templates and primers were mixed volume to volume, denatured at 95° C. for 5 min and annealed at 37° C. for 10 min. Following a two hour incubation at 22° C., reactions were stopped by the addition of 100 μg of sonicated salmon sperm DNA (Life Technologies) and 1 ml of 10% trichloroacetic acid-0.5% tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TCA-PPi). Nucleic acids were precipitated at 4° C. for 30 min after which samples were filtered on GF/C glass microfiber filters (Millipore). Membranes were subsequently washed with 25 ml of a 1% TCA-0.1% PPi solution, then air dried. Incorporated radioactivity was quantified using a liquid scintillation counter (1450-Microbeta, Wallac). Results are shown in Table 1.

Example 27 Evaluation of Analogues for measurement of ATPase activity of HCV NS3 helicase

Malachite Green Assay:

The measurement of ATPase activity was performed by measuring the amount of free inorganic phosphate released during the conversion of ATP to ADP by the HCV NS3 ATPase activity. The assay is as follows: In a 96-well microtiter-plate, compounds were dissolved at various concentrations in a final volume of 25 μL of ATPase buffer containing 400 μM ATP. The enzymatic reaction was initiated by the addition of 25 μl of ATPase buffer containing 6 nM of HCV NS3 enzyme without ATP to the wells followed by an incubation of 30 min. at 37 C. Essentially, the final concentration of the ATPase buffer components are as follows: 44 mM MOPS pH 7.0, 8.8 mM NaCl, 2.2 mM MgCl₂, 125 μg/ml poly A, 1% DMSO, 200 μM ATP, and 3 nM HCV NS3 enzyme. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 100 μl of Biomol Green™ reagent (BIOMOL® Research Laboratories Inc., Plymouth Meeting, Pa.). In order to allow the development of the green color, the plate was incubated for 15 min. at room temperature. Then the plate was read on a micro-plate reader at 620 nm. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) for anti-ATPase activity was defined as the concentration of compound that resulted in a 50% reduction of the signal compared to the signal observed in control sample without compound. The signal recorded was also corrected from the background signal obtained with control samples with compound only. The IC₅₀was determined from dose-response curves using six to eight concentrations per compound. Curves were fitted to data points using a non-linear regression analysis, and IC₅₀s were interpolated from the resulting curves using GraphPad Prism software, version 2.0 (GraphPad Software Inc, San Diego, Calif.).

HPLC Assay:

The measurement of HCV NS3 ATPase activity was performed by measuring the amount of ADP produced during the conversion of ATP to ADP by the HCV NS3 enzyme using paired-ion HPLC on a reverse phase column. The assay is as follows: The same protocol as mentioned above was used except that the final concentration of HCV NS3 enzyme was reduced to 1 nM in a 50 μl reaction mixture and that the ATPase reaction was stopped by the addition of 12.5 μl of 0.5 M EDTA. A modular liquid chromatography system (TSP Spectrasystem®, ThermoQuest Corporation, San Diego, USA) using a ChromQuest™ software (ThermoQuest Corporation, San Diego, USA) controlled the autosampling of 25 μl from each reaction. The mobile phase was an isocratic solution of 0.15 M triethylamine, 6% methanol, and phosphoric acid to pH 5.5. ADP and ATP peaks were resolved using the Aqua 5μ, C18, 125 Å, (150×4.6 mm) reverse phase column. The extent of ATP conversion to ADP was evaluated by measuring the area under the ADP peak produced which was detected at 259 nm. The amount of ADP was corrected for the presence of ADP contaminant in the original ATP solution. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) for anti-ATPase activity was defined as the concentration of compound that resulted in a 50% reduction of the ADP peak area compared to the ADP peak area observed in control sample without compound. The IC₅₀was determined from dose-response curves using six to eight concentrations per compound. Curves were fitted to data points using a non-linear regression analysis, and IC₅₀s were interpolated from the resulting curves using GraphPad Prism software, version 2.0 (GraphPad Software Inc, San Diego, Calif.).
