Level 26 239 George Street Brisbane Qld 4000 Invention Title: Sulfonamide Inhibitors Protease of Aspartyl Details of Original Application: No. 2004200636 The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it, known to us: la O 0 00 r" SULFONAMIDE INHIBITORS OF ASPARTYL PROTEASE Cl TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION CA The present invention relates to a novel class of sulfonamides which are aspartyl protease inhibitors. In one embodiment, this invention relates to a novel class of HIV aspartyl protease inhibitors characterized by specific structural and physicochemical features. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of this invention are particularly well suited for inhibiting HIV-1 and HIV-2 protease activity and consequently, may be advantageously used as anti-viral agents against the HIV-1 and HIV-2 viruses. This invention also relates to methods for inhibiting the activity of HIV aspartyl protease using the compounds of this invention and methods for screening compounds for anti-HIV activity.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The human immunodeficiency virus is the causative agent for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome ("AIDS") a disease characterized by the destruction of the immune system, particularly of CD4' T-cells, with attendant susceptibility to opportunistic infections and its precursor AIDS-related complex a syndrome characterized by symptoms such as persistent generalized lymphadenopathy, fever and weight loss.

2 As in the case of several other retroviruses, HIV O encodes the production of a protease which carries out posttranslational cleavage of precursor polypeptides in a CI process necessary for the formation of infectious virions Crawford et al., "A Deletion Mutation in the 5' Part of 00 0 the pol Gene of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus Blocks Proteolytic Processing of the gag and pol Polyproteins", J.

SVirol., 53, p. 899 (1985)). These gene products include pol, which encodes the virion RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (reverse transcriptase), an endonuclease, HIV protease, and gag, which encodes the core-proteins of the virion Toh et al., "Close Structural Resemblance Between Putative Polymerase of a Drosophila Transposable Genetic Element 17.6 and pol gene product of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus", EMBO 4, p. 1267 (1985); L.H. Pearl et al., "A Structural Model for the Retroviral Proteases", Nature, pp. 329-351 (1987); M.D. Power et al., "Nucleotide Sequence of SRV-1, a Type D Simian Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome Retrovirus", Science, 231, p. 1567 (1986)) A number of synthetic anti-viral agents have been designed to target various stages in the replication cycle of HIV. These agents include compounds which block viral binding to CD4' T-lymphocytes (for example, soluble CD4), and compounds which interfere with viral replication by inhibiting viral reverse transcriptase (for example, didanosine and zidovudine (AZT)) and inhibit .integration of viral DNA into cellular DNA Hirsh and R.T. D'Aqulia, "Therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection", New Eng. J. Med., 328, p. 1686 (1993)). However, such agents, which are directed primarily to early stages of viral replication, do not prevent the production of infectious virions in chronically infected cells. Furthermore, administration of some of these agents in effective amounts 3 Cl has led to cell-toxicity and unwanted side effects, such as O anemia and bone marrow suppression.

Z More recently, the focus of anti-viral drug design C has been to create compounds which inhibit the formation of infectious virions by interfering with the processing of 00 viral polyprotein precursors. Processing of these precursor V) proteins requires the action of virus-encoded proteases m which are essential for replication (Kohl, N.E. et al.

s "Active HIV Protease is Required for Viral Infectivity" S 1 0 Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85, p. 4686 (1988)). The antiviral potential of HIV protease inhibition has been demonstrated using peptidal inhibitors. Such peptidal compounds, however, are typically large and complex molecules that tend to exhibit poor bioavailability and are not generally consistent with oral administration.

Accordingly, the need still exists for compounds that can effectively inhibit the action of viral proteases, for use as agents for preventing and treating chronic and acute viral infections.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a novel class of compounds, and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof, that are useful as inhibitors of aspartyl proteases, in particular, HIV aspartyl protease. These compounds can be used alone or in combination with other therapeutic or prophylactic agents, such as anti-virals, antibiotics, immunomodulators or vaccines, for the treatment or prophylaxis of viral infection.

According to a preferred embodiment, the compounds of this invention are capable of inhibiting HIV viral replication in human CD 4 T-cells. These compounds are useful as therapeutic and prophylactic agents to treat or prevent infection by HIV-1 and related viruses which may 4 result in asymptomatic infection, AIDS-related complex O acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or similar disease of the immune system.

C-i It is a principal object of this invention to provide a novel class of sulfonamides which are aspartyl 00 protease inhibitors, and particularly, HIV aspartyl protease tt inhibitors. The novel sulfonamides of this invention are C those of formula I:

Path 1 Step 1: Amine of formula is reacted with a sulfonyl chloride of formula to produce sulfonamide of formula

(II'

Step 2: Sulfonamide of formula is reacted with intermediate of formula which bears an amine protecting 48 group P, such as t-butoxycarbonyl, to produce compound of O formula Suitable amine protecting groups are described in numerous references, including T. W. Greene and CI P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2d Ed., John Wiley and Sons (1991); L. Fieser and M. Fieser, Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, John Wiley and Sons (1994); and L. Paquette, ed.

The above synthetic scheme is not intended to comprise a comprehensive list of all means by which compounds described and claimed in this application may be synthesized. Further methods will be evident to those of ordinary skill in the art.

As discussed above, the novel compounds of the present invention are excellent ligands for aspartyl proteases, particularly HIV-1 and HIV-2 proteases.

Accordingly, these compounds are capable of targeting and inhibiting late stage events in HIV replication, the processing of the viral polyproteins by HIV encoded proteases. Such compounds inhibit the proteolytic processing of viral polyprotein precursors by inhibiting aspartyl protease. Because aspartyl protease is essential for the production of mature virions, inhibition of that processing effectively blocks the spread of virus by inhibiting the production of infectious virions, particularly from chronically infected cells. Compounds according to this invention advantageously inhibit the ability of the HIV-1 virus to infect immortalized human T cells over a period of days, as determined by an assay of extracellular p24 antigen a specific marker of viral replication. Other anti-viral assays have confirmed the potency of these compounds.

51- The compounds of this invention may be employed in O a conventional manner for the treatment of viruses, such as HIV and HTLV, which depend on aspartyl proteases for Cl obligatory events in their life cycle. Such methods of treatment, their dosage levels and requirements may be 0 selected by those of ordinary skill in the art from available methods and techniques. For example, a compound of this invention may be combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant for administration to a virally-infected O 10 patient in a pharmaceutically acceptable manner and in an amount effective to lessen the severity of the viral infection.

Alternatively, the compounds of this invention may be used in vaccines and methods for protecting individuals against viral infection over an extended period of time.

The compounds may be employed in such vaccines either alone or together with other compounds of this invention in a manner consistent with the conventional utilization of protease inhibitors in vaccines. For example, a compound of this invention may be combined with pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants conventionally employed in vaccines and administered in prophylactically effective amounts to protect individuals over an extended period time against HIV infection. As such, the novel protease inhibitors of this invention can be administered as agents for treating or preventing HIV infection in a mammal.

The compounds of formula I, especially those having a molecular weight of less than about 700 g/mole, may be readily absorbed by the bloodstream of mammals upon oral administration. Compounds of formula I having a molecular weight of less than about 600 g/mole are most likely to demonstrate oral availability. This surprisingly impressive oral availability makes such compounds excellent agents for 52 C orally-administered treatment and prevention regimens O against HIV infection.

Z The compounds of this invention may be administered to a healthy or HIV-infected patient either as a single agent or in combination with other anti-viral agents which 00 interfere with the replication cycle of HIV. By tVt administering the compounds of this invention with other mS anti-viral agents which target different events in the viral life cycle, the therapeutic effect of these compounds is 0 10 potentiated. For instance, the co-administered anti-viral agent can be one which targets early events in the life cycle of the virus, such as cell entry, reverse transcription and viral DNA integration into cellular DNA.

Anti-HIV agents targeting such early life cycle events include, didanosine (ddl), alcitabine (ddC), d4T, zidovudine (AZT), polysulfated polysaccharides, sT4 (soluble CD4), 3TC, 935U83, 1592U89, 524W91, ganciclovir, dideoxycytidine, trisodium phosphonoformate, eflornithine, ribavirin, acyclovir, alpha interferon and trimenotrexate.

Ribonucleotide reductase inhibitors such as hydroxyurea may also be used. Additionally, non-nucleoside inhibitors of reverse transcriptase, such as TIBO, delavirine (U90) or nevirapine, may be used to potentiate the effect of the compounds of this invention, as may viral uncoating inhibitors, inhibitors of trans-activating proteins such as tat or rev, or inhibitors of the viral integrase.

Combination therapies according to this invention exert a synergistic effect in inhibiting HIV replication because each component agent of the combination acts on a different site of HIV replication. The use of such combinations also advantageously reduces the dosage of a given conventional anti-retroviral agent which would be required for a desired therapeutic or prophylactic effect as compared to when that agent is administered as a -53 CI monotherapy. These combinations may reduce or eliminate the o side effects of conventional single anti-retroviral agent Z therapies while not interfering with the anti-retroviral activity of those agents. These combinations reduce potential of resistance to single agent therapies, while 00 minimizing any associated toxicity. These combinations may also increase the efficacy of the conventional agent without increasing the associated toxicity. In particular, we have discovered that these compounds act synergistically in preventing the replication of HIV in human T cells.

Preferred combination therapies include the administration of a compound of this invention with AZT, ddl, ddC or d4T.

Alternatively, the compounds of this invention may also be co-administered with other HIV protease inhibitors such as Agenerase (VX-478, Vertex), saquinavir, Ro 31-8959 (Roche), L-735,524 (Merck), XM 323 (Du-Pont Merck) A-80,987 (Abbott), MK 639 (Merck), ABT 538 (A-80538, Abbott), AG 1343(Agouron), XM 412 (Du-Pont Merck), XM 450 (Du-Pont Merck), BMS 186318 (Bristol-Meyers Squibb), ABT 378 (Abbott) and CPG 53,437 (Ciba Geigy) to increase the effect of therapy or prophylaxis against various viral mutants or members of other HIV quasi species.

We prefer administering the compounds of this invention as single agents or in combination with retroviral reverse transcriptase inhibitors, such as derivatives of AZT, or other HIV aspartyl protease inhibitors. We believe that the co-administration of the compounds of this invention with retroviral reverse transcriptase inhibitors or HIV aspartyl protease inhibitors may exert a substantial synergistic effect, thereby preventing, substantially reducing, or completely eliminating viral infectivity and its associated symptoms.

The compounds of this invention can also be administered in combination with immunomodulators 54 bropirimine, anti-human alpha interferon antibody, IL-2, GMo CSF, methionine enkephalin, interferon alpha, Z diethyldithiocarbamate, tumor necrosis factor, naltrexone, tuscarasol and rEPO); and antibiotics pentamidine isethiorate) to prevent or combat infection and disease 00 associated with HIV infections, such as AIDS and ARC.

t When the compounds of this invention are administered Sin combination therapies with other agents, they may be administered sequentially or concurrently to the patient.

O 10 Alternatively, pharmaceutical or prophylactic compositions according to this invention may be comprised of a combination of an aspartyl protease inhibitor of this invention and another therapeutic or prophylactic agent.

Although this invention focuses on the use of the compounds disclosed herein for preventing and treating HIV infection, the compounds of this invention can also be used as inhibitory agents for other viruses which depend on similar aspartyl proteases for obligatory events in their life cycle. These viruses include, as well as other AIDS-like diseases caused by retroviruses, such as simian immunodeficiency viruses, but are not limited to, HTLV-I and HTLV-II. In addition, the compounds of this invention may also be used to inhibit other aspartyl proteases, and in particular, other human aspartyl proteases, including renin and aspartyl proteases that process endothelin precursors.

The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterallyacceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are mannitol, water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, 56 sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent 0 or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil -Z may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides.

Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives are useful in the preparation of injectables, as 00 are natural pharmaceutically-acceptable oils, such as olive Vt) oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated Sversions. These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain a long-chain alcohol diluent or dispersant such as 0 10 Ph. Helv or a similar alcohol.

In the case of tablets for oral use, carriers which are commonly used include lactose and corn starch. Lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, are also typically added. For oral administration in a capsule form, useful diluents include lactose and dried corn starch. When aqueous suspensions are administered orally, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening and/or flavoring and/or coloring agents may be added.

The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may also be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration. These compositions can be prepared by mixing a compound of this invention with a suitable nonirritating excipient which is solid at room temperature but liquid at the rectal temperature and therefore will melt in the rectum to release the active components. Such materials include, but are not limited to, cocoa butter, beeswax and polyethylene glycols.

Cell pellets were resuspended in fresh medium (RPMI 1640, FCS, 20% IL-2, and gentamycin) to a density of 5 x 105 cells/ml. Cell aliquots were infected by the addition of HIV-1 (strain IIIB) diluted to give a viral multiplicity of infection of 100 x TCID50. A similar cell aliquot was diluted with medium to provide a mock-infected control.

Cell infection was allowed to proceed for 1 hr at 37 0 C in a tissue culture incubator with humidified 5% C02 atmosphere.

After the 1 hr incubation the virus/cell suspensions were diluted 6-fold with fresh medium, and 125 pl of the cell suspension was added to each well of the plate containing prediluted compound. Plates were then placed in a tissue 322 CI culture incubator with humidified 5% C02 for 5 days. At the O end of the incubation period, 27 pl of 5% Nonidet-40 was Z added to each well of the incubation plate. After thorough CI mixing with a Costar multitip pipetter, 60 pl of the mixture 5 was transferred to filter-bottomed 96-well plates. The 00 00 plates were analyzed in an automated assay instrument r- 1 (Screen Machine, Idexx Laboratories). The assay makes use of a propidium iodide dye to estimate the DNA content of each well.
