No. 14/795,676, filed on Jul. 9, 2015, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/023,692, filed on Jul. 11, 2014, U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/058,569, filed on Oct. 1, 2014, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/118,377 filed on Feb. 19, 2015, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTIONThis application relates generally to compounds and pharmaceutical compositions which selectively modulate toll-like receptors (such as TLR7) and methods of using such compounds in the treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infections.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThe innate immune system provides the body with a first line defense against invading pathogens. In an innate immune response, an invading pathogen is recognized by a germline-encoded receptor, the activation of which initiates a signaling cascade that leads to the induction of cytokine expression. Innate immune system receptors have broad specificity, recognizing molecular structures that are highly conserved among different pathogens. One family of these receptors is known as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), due to their homology with receptors that were first identified and named in Drosophila, and are present in cells such as macrophages, dendritic cells, and epithelial cells.
There are at least ten different TLRs in mammals. Ligands and corresponding signaling cascades have been identified for some of these receptors. For example, TLR2 is activated by the lipoprotein of bacteria (e.g., E. coli.), TLR3 is activated by double-stranded RNA, TLR4 is activated by lipopolysaccharide (i.e., LPS or endotoxin) of Gram-negative bacteria (e.g., Salmonella and E. coli O157:H7), TLRS is activated by flagellin of motile bacteria (e.g., Listeria), TLR7 recognizes and responds to imiquimod and TLR9 is activated by unmethylated CpG sequences of pathogen DNA. The stimulation of each of these receptors leads to activation of the transcription factor NF-κB, and other signaling molecules that are involved in regulating the expression of cytokine genes, including those encoding tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and certain chemokines. Agonists of TLR7 are immunostimulants and induce the production of endogenous interferon-α in vivo.
There are a number of diseases, disorders, and conditions linked to TLRs such that therapies using a TLR agonist are believed promising, including but not limited to melanoma, non-small cell lung carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, myeloma, allergic rhinitis, asthma, COPD, ulcerative colitis, hepatic fibrosis, and viral infections.
TLR7 modulating compounds include the TLR7 agonist compounds of U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,367,670; 8,629,142; and 8,809,527, demonstrated through IFN-α Minimum Effective Concentration (MEC). The activity of TLR7 agonist GS-9620 has been discussed in the articles by Lanford et al., Gastroenterology 2013 June; 144(7):1508-17 and the article by Roethle et al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Volume 56, Issue 18, Pages 7324-7333, discusses the TLR7 agonist activity of compounds of in U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,367,670; 8,629,142; and 8,809,527, including those of Examples 4, 49, 89, 99, and 105.
U.S. Pat. No. 8,507,507 discloses TLR7 agonist compounds, including 4-amino-6-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1-((4′-(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl)methyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2(3H)-one. U.S. Pat. No. 7,968,544 teaches TLR7 agonist compounds, including 6-amino-2-butoxy-9-(3-(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl)benzyl)-9H-purin-8-ol.
Around the world more than thirty million people are infected by the HIV virus. Numerous drugs and combination therapies have been developed for the treatment of HIV infections in humans. While combination antiretroviral therapies (cART) and highly active antiretroviral therapies (HAART) have been able to reduce HIV viral activation, often below 50 copies of HIV RNA/ml of plasma, no therapy has provided elimination of HIV infected cells which are not actively replicating HIV, commonly referred to as a patient's latent reservoir of HIV. Strategies have been sought for “kick and kill” methods of treating HIV in which the cells of the latent reservoir are to “kick” the HIV-infected cells into inducing transcription of the quiescent, replication-competent HIV proviruses, creating a state of transient viremia and making the activated cells susceptible to the “kill” from antiretroviral therapies. “Kick” programs have tested various agents, including histone deacetylase inhibitors, disulfiram, PD-1 antibodies, and HIV vaccines, as noted in Prospects for Treatment of Latent HIV, Barton et al., Clin. Pharm. & Therap., Vol. 93, Issue 1, pp. 46-56; Neutralizing the HIV Reservoir, Marsden et al., Cell, 158, Aug. 28, 2014, pp. 971-972; HIV-1 Latency: An Update of Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies, Battistini et al., Viruses 2014, 6, 1715-1758; and Quantification of HIV-1 latency reversal in resting CD4+ T cells from patients on suppressive antiretroviral therapy, Cillo et al., PNAS, May 13 2014, Vol. 111, No. 19, pp. 7078-7083.
There remains a need for new agents and therapies capable of assisting in the activation of the latent HIV-infected cells to enhance the activity of antiretroviral therapies and immune responses.

When moieties such as “alkyl”, “aryl”, “heterocyclyl”, etc. are referred to herein as “substituted” or are shown diagrammatically to be substituted (or optionally substituted, e.g., when the number of substituents ranges from zero to a positive integer), then the terms “alkyl”, “aryl”, “heterocyclyl”, etc. are understood to be interchangeable with “alkylene”, “arylene”, “heterocyclylene”, etc.
“Heteroalkyl” refers to an alkyl group where one or more carbon atoms have been replaced with a heteroatom, such as, O, N, or S. For example, if the carbon atom of the alkyl group which is attached to the parent molecule is replaced with a heteroatom (e.g., O, N, or S) the resulting heteroalkyl groups are, respectively, an alkoxy group (e.g., —OCH3, etc.), an amine (e.g., —NHCH3, —N(CH3)2, and the like), or a thioalkyl group (e.g., —SCH3). If a non-terminal carbon atom of the alkyl group which is not attached to the parent molecule is replaced with a heteroatom (e.g., O, N, or S) and the resulting heteroalkyl groups are, respectively, an alkyl ether (e.g., —CH2CH2—O—CHs, etc.), an alkyl amine (e.g., —CH2NHCH3, —CH2N(CH3)2, and the like), or a thioalkyl ether (e.g., —CH2—S—CH3). If a terminal carbon atom of the alkyl group is replaced with a heteroatom (e.g., O, N, or S), the resulting heteroalkyl groups are, respectively, a hydroxyalkyl group (e.g., —CH2CH2—OH), an aminoalkyl group (e.g., —CH2NH2), or an alkyl thiol group (e.g., —CH2CH2—SH). A heteroalkyl group can have, for example, 1 to 20 carbon atoms, 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or 1 to 6 carbon atoms. A C1-C6 heteroalkyl group means a heteroalkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.

A compound of the formulas herein and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts may exist as different polymorphs or pseudopolymorphs. As used herein, crystalline polymorphism means the ability of a crystalline compound to exist in different crystal structures. Polymorphism generally can occur as a response to changes in temperature, pressure, or both. Polymorphism can also result from variations in the crystallization process. Polymorphs can be distinguished by various physical characteristics known in the art such as x-ray diffraction patterns, solubility, and melting point. The crystalline polymorphism may result from differences in crystal packing (packing polymorphism) or differences in packing between different conformers of the same molecule (conformational polymorphism). As used herein, crystalline pseudopolymorphism means the ability of a hydrate or solvate of a compound to exist in different crystal structures. The pseudopolymorphs of the instant invention may exist due to differences in crystal packing (packing pseudopolymorphism) or due to differences in packing between different conformers of the same molecule (conformational pseudopolymorphism). The instant invention comprises all polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs of the compounds of Formula I-II and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts.
A compound of the formulas herein and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts may also exist as an amorphous solid.

The term “chiral” refers to molecules which have the property of non-superimposability of the mirror image partner, while the term “achiral” refers to molecules which are superimposable on their mirror image partner. The term “stereoisomers” refers to compounds which have identical chemical constitution, but differ with regard to the arrangement of the atoms or groups in space. “Diastereomer” refers to a stereoisomer with two or more centers of chirality and whose molecules are not mirror images of one another. Diastereomers have different physical properties, e.g., melting points, boiling points, spectral properties, and reactivities. Mixtures of diastereomers may separate under high resolution analytical procedures such as electrophoresis and chromatography. “Enantiomers” refer to two stereoisomers of a compound which are non-superimposable mirror images of one another.
Stereochemical definitions and conventions used herein generally follow S. P. Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (1984) McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; and Eliel, E. and Wilen, S., Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds (1994) John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York. Many organic compounds exist in optically active forms, i.e., they have the ability to rotate the plane of plane-polarized light. In describing an optically active compound, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule about its chiral center(s). The prefixes d and I or (+) and (−) are employed to designate the sign of rotation of plane-polarized light by the compound, with (−) or 1 meaning that the compound is levorotatory. A compound prefixed with (+) or d is dextrorotatory. For a given chemical structure, these stereoisomers are identical except that they are mirror images of one another. A specific stereoisomer may also be referred to as an enantiomer, and a mixture of such isomers is often called an enantiomeric mixture. A 50:50 mixture of enantiomers is referred to as a racemic mixture or a racemate, which may occur where there has been no stereoselection or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process. The terms “racemic mixture” and “racemate” refer to an equimolar mixture of two enantiomeric species, devoid of optical activity.
The present invention includes a salt or solvate of the compounds herein described, including combinations thereof such as a solvate of a salt. The compounds of the present invention may exist in solvated, for example hydrated, as well as unsolvated forms, and the present invention encompasses all such forms.
Typically, but not absolutely, the salts of the present invention are pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Salts encompassed within the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refer to non-toxic salts of the compounds of this invention.
Examples of suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts include inorganic acid addition salts such as chloride, bromide, sulfate, phosphate, and nitrate; organic acid addition salts such as acetate, galactarate, propionate, succinate, lactate, glycolate, malate, tartrate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, methanesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate, and ascorbate; salts with acidic amino acid such as aspartate and glutamate; alkali metal salts such as sodium salt and potassium salt; alkaline earth metal salts such as magnesium salt and calcium salt; ammonium salt; organic basic salts such as trimethylamine salt, triethylamine salt, pyridine salt, picoline salt, dicyclohexylamine salt, and N,N′-dibenzylethylenediamine salt; and salts with basic amino acid such as lysine salt and arginine salt. The salts may be in some cases hydrates or ethanol solvates.
Any formula or structure given herein, including the compounds of Formula II and the specific examples of compounds herein, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, is also intended to represent unlabeled forms as well as isotopically labeled forms of the compounds, or salts thereof. Isotopically labeled compounds or salts thereof have structures depicted by the formulas given herein except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine and chlorine, such as, but not limited to 2H (deuterium, D), 3H (tritium), 11C, 13C, 14C, 15N, 18F, 31P, 32P, 35S, 36Cl and 125I. Various isotopically labeled compounds or salts thereof of the present disclosure, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as 3H, 13C and 14C are incorporated. Such isotopically labeled compounds or salts thereof may be useful in metabolic studies, reaction kinetic studies, detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays or in radioactive treatment of subjects (e.g. humans).
The disclosure also includes the compound of formula I and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, in which from 1 to n hydrogens attached to a carbon atom is/are replaced by deuterium, in which n is the number of hydrogens in the molecule. Such compounds may exhibit increased resistance to metabolism and are thus useful for increasing the half-life of the compounds herein, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof when administered to a mammal. See, for example, Foster, “Deuterium Isotope Effects in Studies of Drug Metabolism”, Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 5(12):524-527 (1984). Such compounds are synthesized by means well known in the art, for example by employing starting materials in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by deuterium.
Deuterium labeled or substituted therapeutic compounds of the disclosure may have improved DMPK (drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics) properties, relating to distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME). Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life, reduced dosage requirements and/or an improvement in therapeutic index. An 18F labeled compound may be useful for PET or SPECT studies. Isotopically labeled compounds of this disclosure and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the schemes or in the examples and preparations described below by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. It is understood that deuterium in this context is regarded as a substituent in the compounds disclosed herein and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The concentration of such a heavier isotope, specifically deuterium, may be defined by an isotopic enrichment factor. In the compounds of this disclosure any atom not specifically designated as a particular isotope is meant to represent any stable isotope of that atom. Unless otherwise stated, when a position is designated specifically as “H” or “hydrogen”, the position is understood to have hydrogen at its natural abundance isotopic composition. Accordingly, in the compounds or salts thereof of this disclosure any atom specifically designated as a deuterium (D) is meant to represent deuterium.
Metabolites of the Compounds of the InventionAlso falling within the scope of this invention are the in vivo metabolic products of the compounds described herein. Such products may result for example from the oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, esterification and the like of the administered compound, primarily due to enzymatic processes. Accordingly, the invention includes compounds produced by a process comprising contacting a compound of this invention with a mammal for a period of time sufficient to yield a metabolic product thereof. Such products typically are identified by preparing a radiolabelled (e.g., C14 or H3) compound of the invention, administering it parenterally in a detectable dose (e.g., greater than about 0.5 mg/kg) to an animal such as rat, mouse, guinea pig, monkey, or to man, allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur (typically about 30 seconds to 30 hours) and isolating its conversion products from the urine, blood or other biological samples. These products are easily isolated since they are labeled (others are isolated by the use of antibodies capable of binding epitopes surviving in the metabolite). The metabolite structures are determined in conventional fashion, e.g., by MS or NMR analysis. In general, analysis of metabolites is done in the same way as conventional drug metabolism studies well-known to those skilled in the art. The conversion products, so long as they are not otherwise found in vivo, are useful in diagnostic assays for therapeutic dosing of the compounds of the invention even if they possess no anti-infective activity of their own.
The definitions and substituents for various generic and subgeneric groups of the present compounds are described and illustrated herein. It should be understood by one skilled in the art that any combination of the definitions and substituents described above should not result in an inoperable species or compound. “Inoperable species or compounds” means compound structures that violates relevant scientific principles (such as, for example, a carbon atom connecting to more than four covalent bonds) or compounds too unstable to permit isolation and formulation into pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms.
Pharmaceutical FormulationsThe compounds of this invention are formulated with conventional carriers and excipients, which will be selected in accord with ordinary practice. Tablets will contain excipients, glidants, fillers, binders and the like. Aqueous formulations are prepared in sterile form, and when intended for delivery by other than oral administration generally will be isotonic. All formulations will optionally contain excipients such as those set forth in the Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients (1986), herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. Excipients include ascorbic acid and other antioxidants, chelating agents such as EDTA, carbohydrates such as dextrin, hydroxyalkylcellulose, hydroxyalkylmethylcellulose, stearic acid and the like. The pH of the formulations ranges from about 3 to about 11, but is ordinarily about 7 to 10.
While it is possible for the active ingredients to be administered alone it may be preferable to present them as pharmaceutical formulations. The formulations of the invention, both for veterinary and for human use, comprise at least one active ingredient, together with one or more acceptable carriers and optionally other therapeutic ingredients. The carrier(s) must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and physiologically innocuous to the recipient thereof.
The formulations include those suitable for the foregoing administration routes. The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the art of pharmacy. Techniques and formulations generally are found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa.), herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. Such methods include the step of bringing into association the active ingredient with the carrier which constitutes one or more accessory ingredients. In general the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association the active ingredient with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.
Formulations of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be presented as discrete units such as capsules, cachets or tablets each containing a predetermined amount of the active ingredient; 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 administered as a bolus, electuary or paste.
Pharmaceutical formulations according to the present invention comprise one or more compounds of the invention together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients and optionally other therapeutic agents. Pharmaceutical formulations containing the active ingredient may be in any form suitable for the intended method of administration. When used for oral use for example, tablets, troches, lozenges, aqueous or oil suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsions, hard or soft capsules, syrups or elixirs may be prepared. Compositions intended for oral use may be prepared according to any method known to the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions and such compositions may contain one or more agents including sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents, in order to provide a palatable preparation. Tablets containing the active ingredient in admixture with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipient which are suitable for manufacture of tablets are acceptable. These excipients may be, for example, inert diluents, such as calcium or sodium carbonate, lactose, lactose monohydrate, croscarmellose sodium, povidone, calcium or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents, such as maize starch, or alginic acid; binding agents, such as cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, starch, gelatin or acacia; and lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. Tablets may be uncoated or may be coated by known techniques including microencapsulation to delay disintegration and adsorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax may be employed.
The effective dose of an active ingredient depends at least on the nature of the condition being treated, toxicity, whether the compound is being used prophylactically (lower doses) or against an active disease or condition, the method of delivery, and the pharmaceutical formulation, and will be determined by the clinician using conventional dose escalation studies. The effective dose can be expected to be from about 0.0001 to about 10 mg/kg body weight per day, typically from about 0.001 to about 1 mg/kg body weight per day, more typically from about 0.01 to about 1 mg/kg body weight per day, even more typically from about 0.05 to about 0.5 mg/kg body weight per day. For example, the daily candidate dose for an adult human of approximately 70 kg body weight will range from about 0.05 mg to about 100 mg, or between about 0.1 mg and about 25 mg, or between about 0.4 mg and about 6 mg, and may take the form of single or multiple doses.
In yet another embodiment, the present application discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of Formula I or II or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient.
Routes of AdministrationOne or more compounds of the invention (herein referred to as the active ingredients) are administered by any route appropriate to the condition to be treated. Suitable routes include oral, rectal, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), vaginal and parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intradermal, intrathecal and epidural), and the like. It will be appreciated that the preferred route may vary with for example the condition of the recipient. An advantage of the compounds of this invention is that they are orally bioavailable and can be dosed orally.

In yet another embodiment, the present application discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising a TLR7 modulating compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in combination with at least one additional active agent, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. In yet another embodiment, the present application provides a combination pharmaceutical agent with two or more therapeutic agents in a unitary dosage form. Thus, it is also possible to combine any compound of the invention with one or more other active agents in a unitary dosage form.
The combination therapy may be administered as a simultaneous or sequential regimen. When administered sequentially, the combination may be administered in two or more administrations.
Co-administration of a compound of the invention with one or more other active agents generally refers to simultaneous or sequential administration of a compound of the invention and one or more other active agents, such that therapeutically effective amounts of the compound of the invention and one or more other active agents are both present in the body of the patient.
Co-administration includes administration of unit dosages of the compounds of the invention before or after administration of unit dosages of one or more other active agents, for example, administration of the compounds of the invention within seconds, minutes, or hours of the administration of one or more other active agents. For example, a unit dose of a compound of the invention can be administered first, followed within seconds or minutes by administration of a unit dose of one or more other active agents. Alternatively, a unit dose of one or more other active agents can be administered first, followed by administration of a unit dose of a compound of the invention within seconds or minutes. In some cases, it may be desirable to administer a unit dose of a compound of the invention first, followed, after a period of hours (e.g., 1-12 hours), by administration of a unit dose of one or more other active agents. In other cases, it may be desirable to administer a unit dose of one or more other active agents first, followed, after a period of hours (e.g., 1-12 hours), by administration of a unit dose of a compound of the invention.
The combination therapy may provide “synergy” and “synergistic effect”, i.e. the effect achieved when the active ingredients used together is greater than the sum of the effects that results from using the compounds separately. A synergistic effect may be attained when the active ingredients are: (1) co-formulated and administered or delivered simultaneously in a combined formulation; (2) delivered by alternation or in parallel as separate formulations; or (3) by some other regimen. When delivered in alternation therapy, a synergistic effect may be attained when the compounds are administered or delivered sequentially, e.g., in separate tablets, pills or capsules, or by different injections in separate syringes. In general, during alternation therapy, an effective dosage of each active ingredient is administered sequentially, i.e. serially, whereas in combination therapy, effective dosages of two or more active ingredients are administered together.
Methods of TreatmentAs used herein, an “agonist” is a substance that stimulates its binding partner, typically a receptor. Stimulation is defined in the context of the particular assay, or may be apparent in the literature from a discussion herein that makes a comparison to a factor or substance that is accepted as an “agonist” or an “antagonist” of the particular binding partner under substantially similar circumstances as appreciated by those of skill in the art. Stimulation may be defined with respect to an increase in a particular effect or function that is induced by interaction of the agonist or partial agonist with a binding partner and can include allosteric effects.
As used herein, an “antagonist” is a substance that inhibits its binding partner, typically a receptor. Inhibition is defined in the context of the particular assay, or may be apparent in the literature from a discussion herein that makes a comparison to a factor or substance that is accepted as an “agonist” or an “antagonist” of the particular binding partner under substantially similar circumstances as appreciated by those of skill in the art. Inhibition may be defined with respect to a decrease in a particular effect or function that is induced by interaction of the antagonist with a binding partner, and can include allosteric effects.
As used herein, a “partial agonist” or a “partial antagonist” is a substance that provides a level of stimulation or inhibition, respectively, to its binding partner that is not fully or completely agonistic or antagonistic, respectively. It will be recognized that stimulation, and hence, inhibition is defined intrinsically for any substance or category of substances to be defined as agonists, antagonists, or partial agonists.
As used herein, “intrinsic activity” or “efficacy” relates to some measure of biological effectiveness of the binding partner complex. With regard to receptor pharmacology, the context in which intrinsic activity or efficacy should be defined will depend on the context of the binding partner (e.g., receptor/ligand) complex and the consideration of an activity relevant to a particular biological outcome. For example, in some circumstances, intrinsic activity may vary depending on the particular second messenger system involved. Where such contextually specific evaluations are relevant, and how they might be relevant in the context of the present invention, will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art.
As used herein, modulation of a receptor includes agonism, partial agonism, antagonism, partial antagonism, or inverse agonism of a receptor. A TLR7 modulating compound may also be referred to as a TLR7 modulating agent, a TLR7 modulator, a compound which modulates TLR7 activity, or the like.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, when treating a viral infection such as HIV, such treatment may be characterized in a variety of ways and measured by a variety of endpoints. The scope of the present invention is intended to encompass all such characterizations.
In one embodiment, the method can be used to induce an immune response against multiple epitopes of a viral infection in a human. Induction of an immune response against viral infection can be assessed using any technique that is known by those of skill in the art for determining whether an immune response has occurred. Suitable methods of detecting an immune response for the present invention include, among others, detecting a decrease in viral load or antigen in a subject's serum, detection of IFN-gamma-secreting antigen specific T cells, and detection of elevated levels of one or more liver enzymes, such as alanine transferase (ALT) and aspartate transferase (AST). In one embodiment, the detection of IFN-gamma-secreting antigen specific T cells is accomplished using an ELISPOT assay or FACS analysis. Another embodiment includes reducing the viral load associated with HIV infection, including a reduction as measured by PCR testing.
A TLR7 modulating compound as described herein can be administered by any useful route and means, such as by oral or parenteral (e.g., intravenous) administration. Therapeutically effective amounts of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein are from about 0.00001 mg/kg body weight per day to about 10 mg/kg body weight per day, such as from about 0.0001 mg/kg body weight per day to about 10 mg/kg body weight per day, or such as from about 0.001 mg/kg body weight per day to about 1 mg/kg body weight per day, or such as from about 0.01 mg/kg body weight per day to about 1 mg/kg body weight per day, or such as from about 0.05 mg/kg body weight per day to about 0.5 mg/kg body weight per day, or such as from about 0.3 μg to about 30 mg per day, or such as from about 30 μg to about 300 μg per day.
The frequency of dosage of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein will be determined by the needs of the individual patient and can be, for example, once per day or twice, or more times, per day. Administration of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein continues for as long as necessary to treat the HIV infection. For example, a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein can be administered to a human being infected with HIV for a period of from 20 days to 180 days or, for example, for a period of from 20 days to 90 days or, for example, for a period of from 30 days to 60 days.
Administration can be intermittent, with a period of one or more days during which a patient receives a daily dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein, followed by a period of several or more days during which a patient does not receive a daily dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein. For example, a patient can receive a dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein every other day, or three times per week, once per week (every 7 days), once every other week (every 14 days), once per month, or once every other month. Again by way of example, a patient can receive a dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein each day for a period of from 1 to 14 days, followed by a period of 7 to 30 days during which the patient does not receive a dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein, followed by a subsequent period (e.g., from 1 to 14 days) during which the patient again receives a daily dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein. For other examples, in separate embodiments, a patient can receive an initial single dose of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein, followed by sequential doses every other day, or three times per week, once per week (every 7 days), once every other week (every 14 days), once per month, or once every other month. Alternating periods of administration of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein, followed by non-administration of a TLR7 modulating compound as described herein, can be repeated as clinically required to treat the patient.

Biological ExamplesAlthough specific embodiments of the present invention are herein illustrated and described in detail, the invention is not limited thereto. The above detailed descriptions are provided as exemplary of the present invention and should not be construed as constituting any limitation of the invention. Modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and all modifications that do not depart from the spirit of the invention are intended to be included with the scope of the appended claims.
EXAMPLES Example 201. Formulation of Example 4A sterile formulation of Example 4 suitable for oral dosing was prepared. Initially, a vehicle solution was prepared by dissolving propyl gallate in 0.001N HCl (pH 3.0) to obtain a final concentration of propyl gallate of 0.005% (w/v). Three solution formulations the compound of Example 4 were prepared by dissolving a sufficient amount of the compound of Example 4 in the 0.005% propyl gallate vehicle solution, to arrive at final concentrations of 0.1 mg/mL, 0.2 mg/mL, and 0.3 mg/mL Compound 4. These compositions were frozen at −20° C. until time of use.
Example 202. cART FormulationA cART formulation containing 20 mg/mL tenofovir (TFV, GMP grade), 50 mg/mL emtricitabine (FTC, GMP grade), and 2.5 mg/mL dolutegravir (DTG, 95% purity) was prepared in a solvent containing a final concentration of 25% (v/v) polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG-400, Spectrum Chemical New Brunswick, N.J.), 15% (w/v) Captisol (Ligand Pharmaceuticals, LA Jolla, Calif.) and 0.075N sodium hydroxide (NaOH, Spectrum Chemical, New Brunswick, N.J.) in water. This formulation was prepared by mixing DTG stock solution (10 mg/mL of DTG in PEG-400), TFV and FTC stock solution (80 mg/mL of TFV and 200 mg/mL of FTC in 0.3 N NaOH), and 30% (w/w) captosil solution at a 1:1:2 (v:v:v) ratio. The final solution was clear with a pH ˜6. It was sterile filtered, then aliquoted into sterile glass and frozen at −20° C. until used.
Example 203. TLR7 Modulating Compound in SIV+ Viremic Rhesus at Chronic Set PointFive chronically infected, SIV+rhesus macaques were either treated with the compound of Example 4 (n=3 animals) or with dosing vehicle (placebo, n=2 animals) in a multiple-dose, dose escalation, placebo controlled study. The macaques were infected with simian immunodeficiency virus for sufficient period of time to establish a chronic set point (i.e., a state of persistent viremia, i.e., post-peak viremia where host immunological control of virus replication is established, although this does not lead to complete viral suppression) prior to dosing with the compound of Example 4. The animals were not administered combination antiretroviral therapy during any part of the study.
The animals were dosed once weekly by oral gavage (via nasogastric tube) with either the compound of Example 4 or placebo. Three animals were administered the compound of Example 4, prepared as described in Example 201. The first week, 1 mL/kg of the 0.1 mg/mL formulation was administered, corresponding to a dose of 0.1 mg/kg. The second week, 1 mL/kg of the 0.2 mg/mL formulation was administered, corresponding to a dose of 0.2 mg/kg. On weeks three through five, 1 mL/kg of the 0.3 mg/mL formulation was administered, corresponding to a dose of 0.3 mg/kg. Each week, two animals (placebo group) were administered the dosing vehicle as described in Example 201 at 1 mL/kg.
Each formulation of Example 201 or dosing vehicle only (placebo) was used fresh and thawed to room temperature prior to dosing. Plasma viral loads (expressed as SIV RNA copies per mL of plasma) were determined by quantitative RT-PCR of the SIV RNA measuring the gag gene transcripts at various times throughout the study for animals administered the compound of Example 4 and the placebo animals. The data are shown in
In
As shown in
The animal that initiated the study with the lowest viral load (lowest chronic set point) maintained a plasma viral load that was undetectable (<50 RNA copies/mL) for at least 100 days following the last dose of the compound of Example 4 as shown in
A group of 10 Indian rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) were treated with the compound of Example 4 or dosing vehicle of Example 201 (placebo group) in a multiple dose, dose escalation study. The macaques were infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIVmac251) by repeat low-dose rectal mucosal challenge. Beginning on day 65 post-infection, after establishment of peak viremia and an early viral chronic set point, the animals were treated with a the cART by sub-cutaneous injection at 1 mL/kg, the administration of which was for approximately one year. During the time of cART administration plasma viral loads decreased to undetectable levels (SIV gag RNA<50 copies/mL) by Day 168 post-infection, and were maintained for approximately 5 months prior to administration of the compound of Example 4 by use of daily cART. In addition, animals were maintained on the same cART regimen when dosed with the compound of Example 4. The amount of antiretrovirals administered to each animal, on a daily basis, in the cART formulation were 20 mg/kg tenofovir, 50 mg/kg emtricitibine (FTC), and 2.5 mg/kg dolutegravir. The animals were administered cART daily from approximately day 65 post-infection, through viral suppression and administration of the compound of Example 4 until approximately two weeks post-last dose of the compound from Example 4 at which time cART was stopped to monitor plasma viral load rebound kinetics.
Beginning on Day 317 post-infection, the animals were dosed once every other week with either the compound of Example 4 or dosing vehicle of Example 201 (placebo group). Four animals were dosed with the compound of Example 4, prepared as described in Example 201. The first week, 1 mL/kg of the 0.1 mg/mL formulation was dosed, corresponding to a dose of 0.1 mg/kg. The third week, 1 mL/kg of the 0.2 mg/mL formulation was dosed, corresponding to a dose of 0.2 mg/kg. On weeks five through thirteen, 1 mL/kg of the 0.3 mg/mL formulation was dosed, corresponding to a dose of 0.3 mg/kg (seven doses in total). The other six animals were controls, of which three were given seven doses of saline by oral gavage once every two weeks; the other three animals were left untreated. Approximately two weeks following the last dose of the compound of Example 4, cART was stopped in the three saline-dosed placebo animals and the four animals who had received the compound of Example 4. Approximately one month later, cART was stopped in the three untreated control animals. Following cART cessation viral loads were monitored for a period of six months.
Each formulation of the compound of Example 4 or dosing vehicle of Example 201 was thawed at room temperature prior to dosing. Animals were dosed by oral gavage via nasogastric tube.
Plasma viral loads (expressed as SIV RNA copies per mL of plasma) were determined by quantitative RT-PCR of the SIV RNA measuring the gag gene transcripts at various times throughout the study. Viral loads for animals administered the compound of Example 4 and placebo group are shown in Table 1 and in
As shown in Table 1 and
The data from this portion of the dose-escalation study demonstrates that the compound of Example 4 reproducibly induced transient plasma viremia in the presence of cART followed by a return to full plasma SIV RNA suppression. The transient increases in detectable plasma virus occurred after 4 to 5 doses of the compound of Example 4 administered orally once every 14 days.
After two weeks following the last dose of study drug, cART therapy was also stopped in all dosed (placebo dosed included) animals. In the untreated control group of animals, cART was stopped 30 days later. Table 2 denotes the average viral load chronic set point from day 42-81 following cessation of cART for each of the animals in the study. As shown in Table 2, all animals experienced plasma viral rebound within 7 to 14 days after cART cessation. However, when comparing the pre-cART plasma SIV RNA chronic set point to the post-cART cessation chronic set point within the animals administered the compound of Example 4th is was approximately ˜0.5 logo lower (mean change for all animals treated with the compound of Example 4) than the change observed in those animals in the placebo group (mean change for all animals administered dosing vehicle of Example 201).
A whole blood sample, an inguinal lymph node sample, and a colon pinch biopsy sample were taken from the animals dosed with the compound of Example 4 and from the animals dosed with the vehicle of Example 201 (placebo group) in the study described in Example 204. These samples were taken prior to initiation of dosing and two weeks after the last dose; all samples were taken while animals were on cART. Total DNA was isolated from each sample using commercially available blood and tissue DNA extraction kits. Proviral SIV DNA levels were measured by quantitative PCR (qPCR) using probe-primer sets specific to the SIV gag gene and normalization for cellular input by measuring the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) gene levels. In comparing proviral SIV DNA amounts in the pre- and post-treatment PBMC, inguinal lymph node, and colon samples within each animal, there was a clear decrease in proviral DNA content for three of four animals treated with the compound of Example 4 across all tissues. In one of the compound treated animals (166-C8), there was only a noted decrease in the proviral DNA content in the PBMCs, a minor increase in lymph node, and a minor decrease in the colon. In the vehicle-dosed placebo control animals, however, there were slight to moderate increases in two of three animals in proviral SIV DNA in the PBMC and colon samples, and relatively stable levels in lymph node samples.
During the course of treatment with the compound of Example 4 as described in Example 204, peripheral lymphocyte activation was monitored in the groups dosed with the compound of Example 4 or the dosing vehicle of Example 201 (placebo), by measuring the expression of the early activation marker CD69 on various lymphocyte subsets by flow cytometry methodology. This methodology was used to quantify the percentage of immune cell subsets expressing the early activation marker. Standard data acquisition techniques were employed on a flow cytometer and by the use of antibodies conjugated to fluorescent molecules where the antibodies recognize rhesus macaque cell surface proteins on various immune cell subsets. In animals dosed with the compound of Example 4, whole blood samples were collected for each dose at various time points both at pre- and post-administration of compound. Total PBMCs were stained in the whole blood samples using antibodies that were chosen to be reactive to rhesus CD3, CD4, CD8, NKG2A, CD16 and CD56, each conjugated to different fluorescent probes to delineate CD3+CD4+CD8-lymphocytes, CD3+CD4-CD8+ lymphocytes and CD3-CD8+NKG2A+CD16+CD56+NK cells. The flow cytometry data presented herein are from animals treated with the compound of Example 4.
Peripheral CD4 lymphocytes (CD3+CD4+CD8-) demonstrated transient activation in response to the compound of Example 4 dosing based on expression of the early activation marker CD69. The percent change from pre-dose levels in cells expressing CD69 increased at 24 to 72 hours post-dose and returned back to near pre-dose levels one week after dosing. The percent change in of peripheral activated CD4 lymphocytes also increased in magnitude based on dose of the compound of Example 4). At the dose of 0.1 mg/kg Example 4, the mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression at any time point on CD4 lymphocytes was 1.1% (pre-dose range 0.5-1.7%), at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change was 1.5% (pre-dose range 0.5-2%), and at the first dose of 0.3 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change was 2.3% (pre-dose range 0.6-2.5%). However, all subsequent doses did not achieve similar levels of peripheral CD4 lymphocyte activation; mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression was 1.7%.
Peripheral CD8 lymphocytes (CD3+CD8+CD4-) also demonstrated transient activation in response to dosing with the compound of Example 4, based on the expression of CD69. The percent changes from pre-dose levels in CD8 lymphocytes expressing CD69 increased at 24 to 72 hours post-dose and returned back to near pre-dose levels one week after dosing. The percent change in peripheral activated CD8 lymphocytes also increased in magnitude based on dose of the compound of Example 4. At the dose of 0.1 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression at any time point on CD8 lymphocytes was 7.8% (pre-dose range 3.3-12.6%), at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change was 9.5% (pre-dose range 3.0-15.7%), and at the first dose of 0.3 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change was 17.3% (pre-dose range 5.0-14.4%). However, all subsequent 0.3 mg/kg doses did not achieve similar levels of peripheral CD8 lymphocyte activation; mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression was 15.5%.
Total peripheral NK cells (CD3-CD8+NKG2A+CD16+CD56+, which included CD16 low/high and CD56 low/high) also demonstrated transient activation in response to dosing with the compound of Example 4, based on the expression of CD69. The percent changes from pre-dose levels in NK cells expressing CD69 increased by 24 to 72 hours post-dose and generally returned back to or slightly below pre-dose levels one week after dosing. The percent change in peripheral activated NK cells only slightly increased in magnitude based on dose of the compound of Example 4. At the dose of 0.1 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression at any time point on NK cells was 6.5% (pre-dose range 89-95%), at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg the mean maximum percent change was 9.5% (pre-dose range 83-95%), at the first dose of 0.3 mg/kg the mean maximum expression was 8.3% (pre-dose range 84-95%), and at the second dose of 0.3 mg/kg the mean maximum expression was 8.7% (pre-dose range 82-97%). All subsequent 0.3 mg/kg doses achieved similar levels of peripheral NK cell activation; mean maximum percent change in CD69 expression ranged from 6.1 to 9.2%.
ConclusionThe compound of Example 4 is able to induce transient expression of plasma SIV in the rhesus macaque model of HIV-1 infection. The compound of Example 4 reduced the amount of proviral SIV DNA content in PBMCs, inguinal lymph node, and colon tissue which are markers for reduction of the viral reservoir. Further, administration with the compound of Example 4 produced an immunological response that was measureable in the absence of cART, as demonstrated by the lower plasma virus chronic set point (post-cART cessation) after the administration of the compound.
In Vitro TestingThe in vitro testing of the compounds disclosed herein are designed to show similar activation of immune cells in total PBMC cultures from virally suppressed HIV-1 infected donors. Both molecules can also induce HIV-1 replication in cultures of resting PBMCs obtained from virologically suppressed HIV-1 infected patients. In addition, both molecules show direct antiviral affects in cultures of activated PBMCs exogenously infected with HIV-1.
Example 207. In Vitro Lymphocyte Subset Activation in PBMC Cultures from Healthy and HIV-1 Infected DonorsTotal PBMC cultures were derived from Ficoll-purified buffy coats obtained from healthy human donors or leukapheresis samples obtained from HIV-1 infected donors (HIV-1 infected donors were patients on cART and virally suppressed HIV RNA<50 copies/mL for 1 year). Total PBMC cultures were treated with various concentrations of the identified TLR7 modulating compounds (Compounds of Example 4 and Example 49) for 24 hours. At the end of the incubation period, total PBMC were harvested and stained with antibodies conjugated to specific fluorophores to delineate human CD4 lymphocytes (CD3+CD4+CD8-) or CD8 lymphocytes (CD3+CD8+CD4-) and co-expressing the early activation marker CD69. Cells were analyzed by flow cytometry and data collected on an LSR FortessaX20 instrument (BD Biosciences).
The tested TLR7 modulating compounds were able to induce lymphocyte activation in vitro, specifically to cause activation of CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes. The maximum percentage of cells activated was similar for both compounds within each donor.
To assess the ability to activate HIV-1 expression in total PBMC cultures, Ficoll-purified leukapheresis samples obtained from HIV-1 infected donors (HIV-1 infected donors were patients on cART and virally suppressed HIV RNA<50 copies/mL for 1 year) were tested. Isolated PBMCs were treated with various concentrations (0.1, 1, and 10 μM) of the TLR7 modulating compounds (compounds of Example 4 and Example 49) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) treated (vehicle control) for 4 to 5 days. The cultures were maintained in the presence of antivirals (elvitegravir and efavirenz at 100 nM each) to prevent viral spread and amplification in order to measure initial virus production (latency reversal) created by the TLR7 modulating compounds. At the end of the incubation period cell-free culture supernatants were harvested and HIV-1 RNA levels were quantified by the COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TaqMan HIV-1 Test, v2.0 (Roche).
In the absence of any other activation stimuli, treatment with the TLR7 modulating compounds induced the HIV-1 expression in PBMC cultures from all donors tested (Table 6). Two-fold or higher activation over the DMSO control was observed in cultures from 4 of 6, 3 of 6, and 1 of 4 patients following the treatment with the compound of Example 49 at concentrations of 0.1, 1, and 10 μM, respectively. A similar frequency of response was observed following treatment with the compound of Example 4. Two-fold or higher induction of HIV-1 expression was observed in 6 out of 6 donors with at least one TLR-7 agonist (n=2 donors) or both agonists (n=4 donors). Without wishing to be bound by a particular theory it is thought that the lack of consistent dose responsive viral expression to either agonist within the concentration ranges tested across the tested donors may result from a combined net effect induced by the dual capability of the TLR7 modulating compounds to induce virus expression and exert an antiviral effect. While the antiviral effect of the TLR7 modulating compounds was not directly measured in Example 208, other data presented from Example 207 and Example 209 demonstrate these potential antiviral activities. Both of these biological activities may manifest at different compound concentrations in a donor-dependent manner, resulting in the variation in TLR7 modulating compound concentrations at which HIV-1 activation can occur. Overall, these data demonstrate the in vitro induction of HIV-1 expression by the TLR7 modulating agents.
Using the method described above in Example 208, HIV-1 expression in PBMC cultures derived from four additional HIV-1 infected donors on cART were tested in the presence of the compounds of Examples 4, 29, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, resiquimod, and imiquimod.
Antiretroviral activity was assessed by testing the TLR7 modulating compounds (Compounds of Example 4 and Example 49) in total human PBMC cultures that were first treated with mitogen (phytohemogglutinin A) for two days prior to infection with HIV-1 BaL. Infected cells were cultured in the presence of interleukin-2 and various concentrations of the TLR7 modulating compounds or the nucleoside analog HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitor azidothymidine (AZT, positive control) for six days. At the end of the incubation period, cell-free culture supernatants were harvested and antiviral activity determined by measuring production of HIV-1 Gag p24 by commercially available ELISA kits. The TLR7 modulating compounds showed potent and concentration-dependent antiretroviral activity in each of the eight donor cultures tested, with a mean EC50 of 170 nM and 33 nM, respectively (12). The data demonstrate that the TLR7 modulating compounds both have HIV-1 antiviral activity in this assay system.
PBMCs from 18 HIV-infected donors (Donor IDs 152-169) on suppressive cART were isolated, as described previously in Materials and Methods (PBMC Isolation), and immediately added to tissue culture plates pre-equilibrated at 37° C. with media containing DMSO or the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 uM or 1.0 uM. At day 4 after treatment, cell-free culture supernatants were collected and HIV viral RNA was quantitated using the automated COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TagMan® HIV-1 Test, v2.0 system (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, Ind.), as described previously in Materials and Methods (HIV-1 Activation Assay). Geometric mean fold HIV activations from three independent wells for each donor and each condition were expressed as a ratio of HIV-1 RNA copies/ml detected in culture supernatants from TLR7 agonist treated and DMSO treated wells. Fold HIV activation values were plotted using GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad, San Diego, Calif.) and can be seen in

PBMCs from 14 HIV-infected donors (Donor IDs 152-165) on suppressive cART were isolated, as described previously, and immediately added to tissue culture plates pre-equilibrated at 37C with media containing DMSO or the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) from 0.1 nM or 10.0 uM. At day 2 after treatment, cell-free culture supernatants were collected and frozen at −80° C. for subsequent analysis. Frozen supernatants were thawed at room temperature, and the cytokines and chemokines indicated were quantitated with a custom Luminex® kit, as previously described. At day 4 after treatment, cell-free culture supernatants were collected and HIV viral RNA was quantitated using the automated COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TagMan® HIV-1 Test, v2.0 system (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, Ind.). To generate scatter plots, levels of HIV-1 vRNA that were induced at the concentration of GS-9620 that induced peak IP-10 (CXCL10) or I-TAC (CXCL11) levels were plotted as a single data point for each donor. Graphs were generated and Spearman's rank order correlation r and p values were calculated using GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad, San Diego, Calif.), as noted in
PBMCs from 4 HIV-infected donors (Donor IDs 141-144) on suppressive cART were isolated, as described previously, and treated with DMSO or the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 uM. At day 7 after treatment, non-adherent cells were collected and total CD4 T cells were isolated using the EasySep™ Human T Cell Enrichment Kit (STEMCELL Technologies Inc., Vancouver, BC). CD4 T cells were then stimulated with the protein kinase C (PKC) agonist indolactam at 1 uM for 3 additional days, at which time cell-free culture supernatants were collected and HIV viral RNA was quantitated using the automated COBAS® AmpliPrep/COBAS® TagMan® HIV-1 Test, v2.0 system (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, Ind.). HIV-1 RNA copies/ml were plotted for each donor for DMSO and GS-9620 treatment GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad, San Diego, Calif.), and statistically significant differences were indicated (*p<0.05, **p<0.01 paired t-test), as seen in
PBMCs from 5 HIV-infected donors (Donor IDs 178-180 and 182-183) on suppressive cART were isolated, as described previously, and stained with carboxyfluorescein succinimiyl ester (CFSE). PBMC cultures were treated with DMSO or the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 or 1 uM. Cultures were incubated at 37° C. for 2 days and treated with 500 ng/ml 15-mer peptide pools derived from overlapping HIV gag, pol, nef, and env consensus peptides (JPT Peptide Technologies GmbH). Cells were incubated at 37° C. for 8 days. Cultures were split into duplicate sets and stained in dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (DPBS) with LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain (Life Technologies). The immune recall response was performed as follows. One culture set was treated with the same HIV peptide pools and the other set was treated with 500 ng/ml CMV/EBV/Flu/Tetanus (CEFT) peptides (JPT Peptide Technologies GmbH). After one hour at 37° C., cultures were treated with 0.7 μl GolgiStop (BD Biosciences) containing monensin and 1 μl GolgiPlug (BD Biosciences) containing brefeldin A. Cultures were incubated for 3 additional hours at 37° C. and stained for 15 minutes with anti-CD4-v450, anti-CD3-AlexaFlour 700, and anti CD8-APC-H7 (BD Biosciences). Cultures were fixed with IC Fixation Buffer (eBioscience) and permeabilized with Permeabilization Buffer (eBioscience). Anti-IFN-gamma-APC and anti-TNFalpha-PerCP-Cy5.5 (BD Biosciences) were used to stain intracellular cytokine production. FACS was performed on a LSR Fortessa (BD Biosciences) and data analysis was done with FlowJo software (TreeStar). Response to CEFT peptides were subtracted from the response seen with HIV peptides. Data was plotted and statistical analysis was done with GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad). Treatment with Example 49 at 0.1 uM increased the mean level of polyfunctional proliferating CD8 T cells (CFSE low, IFNg+, TNFa+) by 9.0-fold compared to treatment with DMSO (p<0.05; Student's unpaired, two-tailed t-test). Treatment with Example 49 at 1 uM increased the mean level of polyfunctional proliferating CD8 T cells (CFSE low, IFNg+, TNFa+) by 7.5-fold compared to treatment with DMSO (p<0.005; Student's unpaired, two-tailed t-test), as depicted in
PBMCs from 4 HIV-infected donors (Donor IDs 180-183) on suppressive cART were isolated, as described previously, stained with CFSE, and treated with 500 ng/ml 15-mer peptide pools derived from overlapping HIV gag, pol, nef, and env consensus peptides (JPT Peptide Technologies GmbH). PBMC cultures were treated with DMSO or the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 uM. In some cultures treated with Example 49, the IDO1 small molecule inhibitor, INCB024360, was combined at 2 μM. Cells were incubated at 37° C. for 8 days, then split into duplicate sets and stained in DPBS with LIVE/DEAD Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain (Life Technologies). The immune recall response was performed as previously described. FACS was performed on a LSR Fortessa (BD Biosciences) and data analysis was done with FlowJo software (TreeStar). Data was plotted and statistical analysis was done with GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad). Treatment with Example 49 increased the mean level of polyfunctional proliferating CD8 T cells (CFSE low, IFNg+, TNFa+) by 2.9-fold compared to treatment with DMSO. In this context, inhibition of IDO1 by INCB024360 further increased the mean level of polyfunctional proliferating CD8 T cells by 70% (p=0.05; TLR7 only vs. TLR7+IDO1 using the Student's paired, one-tailed t-test), as depicted in
PBMCs from 2 healthy donors (AllCells: Donor IDs A4593, A4596, A4606) were isolated, as described previously. PBMCs were treated with DMSO or with the compound of Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 uM or 1 uM in replicate culture sets of 8 for 5 days. In parallel, total CD4 T cells were isolated from each donors' PBMCs using the EasySep Human CD4+ T cell Enrichment Kit (Stemcell Technologies). CD4 T cells were infected in bulk with the HIV-1 clinical isolate HT593 (NIH AIDS Reagent Program) using 50-100 ng p24/million CD4 T cells by spinfecting at 1200×g for 2 hours. HIV-infected CD4 T cells were incubated for 5 days at 37° C. in RPMI plus 10% FBS with 30 U/mL IL-2 (Invitrogen). After 5 days in culture, HIV-infected CD4 T cells were washed, counted, and added to PBMCs from the autologous donor at a ratio of 20 PBMCs to 1 CD4 T cell (20:1). To each co-culture replicate, HIV antibody PGT121 (Gilead Sciences, Inc.) was added at concentrations from 6.7e-5 nM to 6.7e2 nM. Co-cultures were incubated with or without HIV antibody for 1 day at 37° C.
Co-cultures were collected and stained with live/dead Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain (Invitrogen) and PE-Cy7-labeled antibody to CD4 (BD Biosciences). Cells were fixed and permeabilized, as described previously, and stained with PE labeled antibody to HIV Gag protein p24 (Beckman Coulter). FACS was performed on a LSR Fortessa (BD Biosciences) and data analysis was done with FlowJo software (TreeStar). Data was plotted and statistical analysis was done with GraphPad Prism software (GraphPad). Killing of HIV-infected CD4 T cells was calculated as a reduction of CD4+p24+ T cells at each PGT121 concentration relative to cultures without PGT121. For the DMSO-treated cultures combined with PGT121, maximal killing was 30% or 40%, and the area under the curve (AUC), an integrative measure of killing potency and maximal killing, was 99 or 108 respectively. Relative to DMSO controls, treatment with Example 49 (GS-9620) at 0.1 uM increased the maximal killing by 30% or 38% and increased the AUC by 32% or 52% respectively. Relative to DMSO controls, treatment with Example 49 (GS-9620) at 1 uM increased the maximal killing by 50% or 48% and increased the AUC by 52% or 73% respectively, as depicted in
