Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of inhibiting a retrovirus in a human cell infected with said retrovirus which comprises treating said cell with an effective amount of a retroviral proteinase inhibitory compound of formula I.

  • AZT zidovudine
  • U.S. Patent 4,724,232 claims a method of treating humans having acquired immunodeficiency syndrome utilizing 3'-azido-3'-deoxy-thymidine (azidothymidine, AZT).
  • HIV Human immunodeficiency virus
  • infective and non-infective HIV-isolates Sequence analysis of the complete genomes from several infective and non-infective HIV-isolates has shed considerable light on the make-up of the virus and the types of molecules that are essential for its replication and maturation to an infective species (L. Ratner, et al., Nature, 313:277-284 (1985)). HIV exhibits the same gag/pol/env organization seen in other retroviruses (L.
  • Reverse transcriptase is an enzyme unique to retroviruses that catalyzes the conversion of viral RNA into double stranded DNA. Blockage at any point during the transcription process, by AZT or any other aberrant deoxynucleoside triphosphate incapable of elongation, should have dramatic consequences relative to viral replication. Much work on the RT target is in progress based, in large measure, upon the fact that nucleosides like AZT are easily delivered to cells. However, the inefficiency of phosphorylation steps to the triphosphate, and the lack of specificity and consequent toxicity, constitute major drawbacks to use of ACT and similar nucleosides having a blocked, or missing, 3'hydroxyl group.
  • the T4 cell receptor for HTV has also been targeted as an intervention point in AIDS therapy ( R.A. Fisher, et al. , Nature, 331:76-78 (1988); R.E. Hussey, et al., Nature, 331:78-81 (1988); and K.C. Deen, et al., Nature, 331:82- 84 (1988)).

  • CD4 based therapy the molecules can neutralize HTV by interfering with viral attachment to T4, and other cells which express CD4 on their surfaces.
  • a variant on this theme is to attach cell toxins to CD4 for specific binding and delivery to infected cells which display glycoprotein gp-120 on their surfaces ( M.A. Till, et al., Science, 242:1166-1168 (1988); and V.K. Chaudhary, et al., Nature, 335:369-372 (1988)).
  • Another therapeutic target in AIDS involves inhibition of the viral protease (or proteinase) that is essential for processing HIV-fusion polypeptide precursors.
  • the proteolytic maturation of the gag and gag/pol fusion polypeptides (a process indispensable for generation of infective viral particles) has been shown to be mediated by a protease that is, itself, encoded by the pol region of the viral genome (Y. Yoshinaka, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 82:1618-1622 (1985); Y. Yoshinaka, et al., J. Virol., 55:870-873 (1985); Y. Yoshinaka, et al., J. Virol., 57:826- 832 (1986); and K. von der Helm, Proc.
