Mono- or di-substituted indole dérivatives as dengue viral réplication înhlbitors
The présent invention relates to mono- or di-substituted indole compounds, methods to prevent or treat dengue viral infections by using said compounds and 5 also relates to said compounds for use as a medicine, more preferably for use as a medicine to treat or prevent dengue viral infections. The présent invention furthermore relates to pharmaceutical compositions or combination préparations of the compounds, to the compositions or préparations for use as a medicine, more preferably for the prévention or treatment of dengue viral infections. The invention 10 also relates to processes for préparation of the compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Flaviviruses, which are transmitted by mosquitoes orticks, cause life-threatening infections in man, such as encephalitis and hémorrhagie fever. Four distinct, but closely related serotypes of the flavivirus dengue are known, so-calied is DENV-1, -2, -3, and -4. Dengue is endemic in most tropical and sub-tropical régions around theworld, predominantly in urban and semi-urban areas. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 2.5 billion people of which 1 billion children are at risk of DENV infection (WHO, 2002). An estimated 50 to 100 million cases of dengue fever [DF], half a million cases of severe dengue disease (i.e. dengue hémorrhagie fever [DHF] and dengue shock syndrome [DSS]), and more than 20,000 deaths occur worldwide each year. DHF has become a leading cause of hospitalization and death amongst children in endemic régions. Altogether, dengue represents the most common cause of arboviral disease. Because of recent large outbreaks in countries situated in Latin America, 25 South-East Asia and the Western Pacific (including Brazil, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand), numbers of dengue cases hâve risen dramatically over the past years. Not only is the number of dengue cases increasing as the disease is spreading to new areas, but the outbreaks tend to be more severe.
To prevent and/or control the disease associated with dengue viral infection, the only available methods at présent are mosquito éradication strategies to control the vector. Atthough progress is being made in the development of vaccines against dengue, many difficulties are encountered. These include the existence of a phenomenon referred to as antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). Recovery 35 from an infection by one serotype provides lifelong immunity against that serotype but confers only partial and transient protection against a subséquent infection by
-2one of the other three serotypes. Following infection with another serotype, preexisting heterologous antibodies form complexes with the newly infecting dengue virus serotype but do not neuiralize the pathogen. Instead, virus entry into cells is believed to be facilitated, resulting in uncontrolled virus réplication and higher peak viral titers. in both primary and secondary infections, higher viral titers are associated with more severe dengue disease. Since maternai antibodies can easiiy pass on to infants by breastfeeding, this might be one of the reasons that children are more affected by severe dengue disease than adults.
In locations with two or more serotypes circulating simultaneously, also referred to as hyper endemic régions, the risk of serious dengue disease is significantly higher due to an increased risk of experiencing a secondary, more severe infection. Moreover, in a situation of hyper-endemicity, the probabilîty ofthe emergence of more virulent strains is increased, which in turn augments the probabilîty of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock syndrome.
The mosquitoes that carry dengue, including Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (tiger mosquito), are moving north on the globe. According to the United States (US) Centers for Disease Control and Prévention (CDC), both mosquitoes are currently omniprésent in Southern Texas. The spread north of dengue-carrying mosquitoes is not confined to the US, but has also been observed in Europe.
Recently (December 2015), the dengue vaccine produced by Sanofi Pasteur was first approved ïn Mexico. The vaccine has also been approved in Brazil, The Philippines and El Salvador. Regulatory review processes are continuing in other countries where dengue is a public health priority. Nevertheless, the vaccine leaves considérable room for improvement due to limited efficacy, especially against DENV-1 and -2, low efficacy in flavivirus-naïve subjects and the lengthy dosing schedule.
Despite these shortcomings, the vaccine is a game changer in endemic settings as it will offer protection to a large part of the population, but likely not to very young infants, who beat the largest burden of dengue. In addition, the dosing schedule and very limited efficacy in flavivirus-naïve subjects make it unsuitable and likely not worthwhile/cost-effective for travelers from non-endemic areas to dengue-endemic areas. The above mentioned shortcomings ofthe dengue vaccines are the reason why there is a need for a pre-exposure prophylactic dengue antiviral.
-3Furthermore, today, spécifie antiviral drugs for the treatment or prévention of dengue fever virus infection are not available. Clearly, there is still a great unmet medical need for therapeutics for the prévention or treatment of viral infections in animais, more in particular in humans and especially for viral infections caused by 5 Flaviviruses, more in particular Dengue virus. Compounds with good anti-viral potency, no or low levels of side-effects, a broad spectrum activity against multiple Dengue virus serotypes, a low toxicity and/or good pharmacokinetic or -dynamic properties are highly needed.
The présent invention now provides compounds, mono- or di-substituted indole 10 dérivatives, which show high potent activity against ali four (4) serotypes ofthe
Dengue virus. Also the compounds according to the invention possess a good pharmacokinetic profile and surprisingly these spécifie compounds show an improved chiral stability.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The présent invention is based on the unexpected finding that at least one of the above-mentioned problems can be solved by the current compounds of the invention.
The présent invention provides compounds which hâve been shown to possess potent antiviral activity against ail four (4) serotypes currently known. The présent 20 invention furthermore demonstrates that these compounds efficiently inhibit prolifération of Dengue virus (DENV).

Part of the current invention is also a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I) or a stereo- isomeric form , a pharmaceutically acceptable sait, solvaté or polymorph thereof together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, diluents or carriers.
Pharmaceutically acceptable saits of the compounds of formula (!) include the acid addition and base salts thereof. Suitable acid addition salts are formed from acids which form non-toxic salts. Suitable base salts are formed from bases which form non-toxic salts.
The compounds of the invention may also exist in un-solvated and solvated forms. The term “solvaté” is used herein to describe a molecular complex comprising the compound of the invention and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molécules, for example, éthanol.
The term “polymorph” refers to the ability of the compound of the invention to exist in more than one form or crystal structure.
The compounds ofthe présent invention may be administered as crystalline or amorphous products. They may be obtained for example as solid plugs, powders, or films by methods such as précipitation, crystallization, freeze drying, spray drying, or evaporative drying. They may be administered alone or in combination with one or more other compounds ofthe invention or in combination with one or io more other drugs. Generally, they will be administered as a formulation in association with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The term “excipient” is used herein to describe any ingrédient other than the compound(s) of the invention. The choice of excipient dépends largely on factors such as the particular mode of administration, the effect ofthe excipient on solubility and stability, and the nature of the dosage form.
The compounds of the présent invention or any subgroup thereof may be formulated into various pharmaceutical forms for administration purposes. As appropriate compositions there may be cited ail compositions usually employed for systemically administering drugs. To préparé the pharmaceutical compositions of 20 this invention, an effective amount of the particular compound, optionally in addition sait form, as the active ingrédient is combined in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of préparation desired for administration. These pharmaceutical compositions are desirably in unitary dosage form suitable, for 25 example, for oral or rectal administration. For example, in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usua! pharmaceutical media may be employed such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid préparations such as suspensions, syrups, élixirs, émulsions, and solutions; or solid carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, diluents, 30 lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules, and tablets. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit forms, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. Also included are solid form préparations that can be converted, shortly before use, to liquid forms.
It is especially advantageous to formulate the aforementioned pharmaceutical compositions in unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of
-8dosage. Unit dosage form as used herein refers to physically discrète units suitabîe as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingrédient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such unit 5 dosage forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, suppositories, injectable solutions or suspensions and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.
Those of skill in the treatment of infectious diseases will be able to détermine the effective amount from the test results presented hereinafter. In general it is contemplated that an effective daily amount would be from 0.01 mg/kg to mg/kg body weight, more preferably from 0.1 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg body weight. It may be appropriate to administer the required dose as two, three, four or more sub-doses at appropriate intervals throughout the day. Said sub-doses may be formulated as unit dosage forms, for example, containing 1 to 1000 mg, and in 15 particular 5 to 200 mg of active ingrédient per unit dosage form.
The exact dosage and frequency of administration dépends on the particular compound of formula (I) used, the particular condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated, the âge, weight and general physical condition of the particular patient as well as other médication the individual may be taking, as 20 is well known to those skilled in the art. Furthermore, it is évident that the effective amount may be lowered or increased depending on the response of the treated subject and/or depending on the évaluation of the physician prescribing the compounds of the instant invention. The effective amount ranges mentioned above are therefore only guidelines and are not intended to limit the scope or use 25 of the invention to any extent.
The présent disclosure is also intended to include any isotopes of atoms présent in the compounds ofthe invention. For example, isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium and isotopes of carbon include C-13 and C-14.
The présent compounds used in the current invention may also exist in their so stereo-chemically isomeric form, defining al! possible compounds made up of the same atoms bonded by the same sequence of bonds but having different threedimensional structures, which are not interchangeable. Unless otherwise mentioned or indicated, the Chemical désignation of compounds encompasses the mixture of ail possible stereo-chemically isomeric forms, which said compounds 35 might possess.
Said mixture may contaîn ail dia-stereomers and/or enantiomers of the basic molecular structure of said compound. Ail stereo-chemically isomeric forms of the compounds used in the présent invention either in pure form or in admixture with each other are intended to be embraced within the scope ofthe présent invention 5 including any racemic mixtures or racemates.
Pure stereoisomeric forms ofthe compounds and intermediates as mentioned herein are defined as isomers substantially free of other enantiomeric or diastereomeric forms of the same basic molecular structure of said compounds or io intermediates. In particular, the term 'stereoisomerically pure' concerns compounds or intermediates having a stereoisomeric excess of at least 80% (i. e. minimum 90% of one isomer and maximum 10% of the other possible isomers) up to a stereoisomeric excess of 100% (i.e. 100% of one isomer and none of the other), more in particular, compounds or intermediates having a stereoisomeric is excess of 90% up to 100%, even more in particular having a stereoisomeric excess of 94% up to 100% and most in particular having a stereoisomeric excess of 97% up to 100%. The terms 'enantiomerically pure' and 'diastereomerically pure' should be understood in a similar way, but then having regard to the enantiomeric excess, respectively the diastereomeric excess of the mixture in 20 question.
Pure stereoisomeric forms of compounds and intermediates used in this invention may be obtained by the application of art-known procedures. For instance, enantiomers may be separated from each other by the sélective crystallization of 25 their diastereomeric salts with optically active acids or bases. Examples thereof are tartaric acid, dibenzoyltartaric acid, ditoluoyltartaric acid and camphosulfonic acid. Altematively, enantiomers may be separated by chromatographie techniques using chiral stationary phases. Said pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be derived from the corresponding pure stereochemically isomeric forms of 30 the appropriate starting materials, provided that the reaction occurs stereospecifically. Preferably, if a spécifie stereoisomer is desired, said compound will be synthesized by stereospecific methods of préparation. These methods will advantageously employ enantiomerically pure starting materials.
35 General synthetic approaches
The synthesis of compounds of general formula I can be performed as outlined in Scheme 1.2-(4-Chloro-2-methoxyphenyl)acetic acid (II) can be converted to the corresponding 2-(4-chloro-2-methoxyphenyl)acetyl chloride (III) with a chlorination
-10reagent like for example thionyl chloride. The Friedel-Crafts réaction of the acid chloride III with a substituted indole of general formula IV can be performed using a Lewis acid reagent like for example Et2AICI or TiCI4 in a suitable solvent like for example CH2CI3 or 1,2-dichloroethane, and under suitable reaction conditions that s typically (but not exclusively) involve cooling, to provide the 3-acylated indole of general formula V. The introduction of an aniline moiety in alpha position to the carbonyl moiety of the compounds of general formula V can be accomplished by a reaction sequence that involves for example bromination οΐ V with a reagent like for example phenyltrimethylammonium tribromide in a suitable solvent like for io example THF, to provide the compounds of general formula VI, and subséquent reaction of the compounds of general formula VI with 3-methoxy-5-(methylsulfonyl)aniline (VII) in a suitable solvent like for example CH3CN, and typically using a base like for example TEA or DIPEA, to provide the compounds of general formula I as racemic mixtures. Chiral séparation of the compounds of general formula I can be performed by for example chiral chromatography to provide the Enantiomers A and B of general formula I.
Chiral séparation
Enantiomers l(A) and l(B)
Scheme 1
-11In some cases, the synthesis of the intermediate of general formula V via the Friedel-Crafts synthesis approach, benefits from the presence ofa protecting group (PG) at the indole-N during the Friedel-Crafts reaction step, as outlined in Scheme 2. To this end, the substituted indole of general formula IV can be converted first to an N-protected intermediate of general formula VIII, such as for example an N-Tosylated intermediate of general formula VIH (PG = Ts), using a reagent like for example tosyl chloride, in the presence of a base like for example sodium hydride. The Friedel-Crafts reaction of the substituted indole of general formula IV with acid chloride III can be performed using a Lewis acid reagent like 10 for example Et2AICI or TiCU in a suitable solvent like for example CH2CI2 or
1,2-dichloroethane, and under suitable reaction conditions that typically (but not exclusively) involve cooling, to provide the 3-acylated N-protected indole of general formula IX. Removal of the indoie-N protecting group PG of the intermediate of general formula IX can be accomplished with a reagent like for 15 example LIOH (for PG = Ts) in a solvent mixture like for example THF/water an at a suitable reaction température, to provide the 3-acylated indole of general formula V.
Scheme 2
As an alternative approach, the intermediate of general formula V can also be prepared as outlined in Scheme 3: The A/-Boc-protected substituted indole3-carbaldehyde of general formula X can be converted to the corresponding Strecker-type of intermediate of general formula XI by reaction with morpholine in 25 the presence of reagents like for example sodium cyanide and sodium bisulfite and in a suitable solvent like for example a mixture of water and a water-mixable organic solvent like for example dioxane. Alkylation of the compound of general formula XI with 4-chloro-2-methoxy-benzylchloride can be accomplished in the presence of a base like for example potassium hexamethyldisilazane and in a suitable solvent like for example DMF to provide the compound of general formula XII. Submission of the compound of general formula XII to a suitable aqueous
-12acidic hydrolytic condition Iike for example by treatment with an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution at elevated température, provides the intermediate of general formula V.

LC/MS methods
The High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) measurement was performed using a LC pump, a diode-array (DAD) or a UV détecter and a column as specified in the respective methods. If necessary, additional detectors were included (see table of methods below).
Flow from the column was brought te the Mass Spectrometer (MS) which was configured with an atmospheric pressure ion source. It is within the knowledge of the skilled person to set the tune parameters (e.g. scanning range, dwell time...) in order to obtain ions allowing the identification of the compound’s nominal monoisotopic molecular weight (MW). Data acquisition was performed with appropriate software.
Compounds are described by theîr experimental rétention fîmes (Rt) and ions. If not specified differentiy in the table of data, the reported molecular ion corresponds to the [M+H]+ (protonated molécule) and/or [Μ-Ηβ (deprotonated molécule). In case the compound was not directly ionizable the type of adduct is specified (i.e. [M+NH4]+, [M+HCOO]', etc...). For molécules with multiple isotopic
-13patterns (Br, Cl), the reported value is the one obtained for the lowest isotope mass. AH results were obtained with experimental uncertainties that are commonly associated with the method used.

Meltïnq Points
Values are either peak values or melt ranges, and are obtained with experimental uncertainties that are commonly associated with this analytîcal method.
DSC823e (indicated as DSC)
For a number of compounds, melting points were determined with a DSC823e (Metfler-Toledo). Melting points were measured with a température gradient of 10°C/minute. Maximum température was 300°C.
Ootical Rotations:
Optical rotations were measured on a Perkin-Elmer 341 polarimeter with a sodium Iamp and reported as follows: [α]° (λ, c g/100ml, solvent, T°C).
[α]λ τ = (100a) / (/ x c) : where I is the path Iength in dm and c is the concentration in g/100 ml for a sample at a temperature T (°C) and a wavelength λ (in nm). If the wavelength of light used is 589 nm (the sodium D line), then the Symbol D might be used instead. The sign of the rotation (+ or -) should always be given. When using this équation the concentration and solvent are always provided in parenthèses after the rotation. The rotation is reported using degrees and no units of concentration are given (it is assumed to be g/100 ml).

Example 1.1 : Chiral stability of Enantiomer IA at pH 7.4
The chiral stability of Enantiomer IA (R = OMe) was evaluated by détermination of the enantiomeric excess (ee%) after incubation for 24 h and 48 h in a buffered solution at pH 7.4 at 40°C and 60°C. To assess the influence ofthe methoxysubstituent of Enantiomer 1A (R = OMe) on the stability against racemization, the chiral stability of Enantiomer l’A (R = H) was tested under the same conditions. To this end, 5 μΜ buffered (pH = 7.4) solutions of 1A and TA were prepared by mixing 25 pL of a 100 pM solution of 1A or TA in DMSO with 475 pL aqueous buffer pH 7.4. Samples were taken 24 h and 48 h after incubation at 40°C and 60°C. The analyticai samples were analyzed by Chiral SFC (MS détection) and the chiral purity was expressed as the enantiomeric excess (ee% = %enantiomer A - %enantiomer B). Both Enantiomers 1A and TA had a chiral purity of 100% prior to their incubation.

ANTIVIRAL ACTIVITY OF THE CQMPOUNDS OF THE INVENTION
DENV-2 antiviral assay
The antiviral activity of ail the compounds of the invention was tested against the DENV-2 16681 strain which was labeled with enhanced green fluorescent protein 20 (eGPF; Table 1 ). The culture medium consists of minimal essentiel medium supplemented with 2% of heat-inactivated fêtai calf sérum, 0.04% gentamycin (50mg/mL) and 2mM of L-glutamine. Veto cells, obtained from ECACC, were suspended in culture medium and 25pL was added to 384-well plates (2500 cells/well), which already contain the antiviral compounds. Typically, these 25 plates contain a 5-fold serial dilution of 9 dilution steps of the test compound at 200 times the final concentration in 100% DMSO (200nL). In addition, each compound concentration is tested in quadruplicate (final concentration range: 25μΜ - 0.000064μΜ or 2.5μΜ - 0.0000064μΜ for the most active compounds). Finally, each plate contains wells which are assigned as virus Controls (containing 30 cells and virus in the absence of compound), cell Controls (containing cells in the absence of virus and compound) and medium Controls (containing medium in the absence of cells, virus and compounds). To the wells assigned as medium contrai, 25pL of culture medium was added instead of Vero cells. Once the cells were added to the plates, the plates were incubated for 30 minutes at room température 35 to allow the cells to distribute evenly within the wells. Next, the plates were incubated in a fully humidified incubator (37°C, 5%CO2) until the next day. Then, DENV-2 strain 16681, labeled with eGFP, was added at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 0.5. Therefore, 15 pL of virus suspension was added to ail the wells
contaîning test compound and to the wells assigned as virus control. In parallel, 15pL of culture medium was added to the medium and cell Controls. Next, the plates were incubated for 3 days in a fully humidified incubator (37°C! 5%CO2). At the day of the read out, the eGFP fluorescence was measured using an automated fluorescence microscope at 488 nm (blue laser). Using an in-house LIMS System, inhibition dose response curves for each compound were calculated and the half maximal effective concentration (EC50) was determined. Therefore, the percent inhibition (I) for every test concentration is calculated using the following formula: I = 100*(St-Scc)/(Svg-Scc); St, Sec and Svc are the amount of îo eGFP signal in the test compound, cell control and virus control wells, respectively. The EC5Q represents the concentration of a compound at which the virus réplication is in h i bited with 50%, as measured by a 50% réduction of the eGFP fluorescent intensity compared to the virus control. The EC5o is calculated using linear interpolation.
In parallel, the toxicity of the compounds was assessed on the same plates. Once the read-out for the eGFP signal was done, 40pL of ATPIite, a cell viability stain, was added to ail wells of the 384-well plates. ATP is présent in ail metabolically active cells and the concentration déclinés very rapidly when the cells undergo necrosis or apoptosis. The ATPLite assay System is based on the production of light caused by the reaction of ATP with added luciferase and D-luciferin. The plates were incubated for 10 minutes ai room température. Next, the plates were measured on a ViewLux. The half maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC5o) was also determined, defined as the concentration required to reduce the luminescent signal by 50% compared to that of the cell control wells. Finally, the selectivity index (SI) was determined for the compounds, which was calculated as followed: SI = CC50/EC50·

-52Tetravalent reverse transcriptase quantitative-PCR (RT-qPCR) assay: Protocol A. The antiviral activity of the compounds of the invention was tested against DENV-1 strain TC974#666 (NCPV; Table 6), DENV-2 strain 16681 (Table 7), 5 DENV-3 strain H87 (NCPV; Table 8) and DENV-4 strains H241 (NCPV; Table 9A) and SG/06K2270DK1/2005 (Eden; Table 9B) in a RT-qPCR assay. Therefore, Vero cells were infected with either DENV-1, or -2, or -3, or -4 in the presence or absence of test compounds. At day 3 post-infection, the cells were lysed and cell lysâtes were used to préparé cDNA of both a viral target (the 3’UTR of DENV;
ίο Table 2) and a cellular reference gene (β-actin, Table 2). Subsequently, a duplex real time PCR was performed on a Lighlcycler480 instrument. The generated Cp value is inversely proportional to the amount of RNA expression of these targets. Inhibition of DENV réplication by test compound results in a shift of Cp’s for the 3’UTR gene. On the other hand, if a test compound is toxic to the cells, a similar is effect on β-actin expression will be observed. The comparative AACp method is used to calculate EC5o, which is based on the relative gene expression of the target gene (3'UTR) normalized with the cellular housekeeping gene (β-actin).

b The nucléotide sequence of the primers and probes were selected from the conserved région in the 3’UTR région of the dengue virus genome, based on the alignment of 300 nucléotide sequences of the four dengue serotypes deposited in Genbank (Gong et al., 2013, Methods Mol Biol, Chapter 16).
The culture medium consisted of minimal essential medium supplemented with
2% of heat-inactivated fêtai calf sérum, 0.04% gentamycin (50mg/mL) and 2mM of
L-glutamine. Vero cells, obtained from ECACC, were suspended in culture medium and 75pL/well was added in 96-well plates (10000 cells/well), which aiready contain the antiviral compounds. Typically, these plates contain a 5-fold serial dilution of 9 dilution steps of the test compound at 200 times the final concentration in 100% DMSO (500nL; final concentration range: 25μΜ 0.000064μΜ or 2.5μΜ - 0.0000064μΜ for the most active compounds). In addition, each plate contains wells which are assigned as virus contrais (containing cells and virus in the absence of compound) and cell contrais (containing cells in the absence of virus and compound). Once the cells were îo added in the plates, the plates were incubated in a fully humidified incubator (37°C, 5%CO2) until the next day. Dengue viruses serotype-1,2, 3 and 4 were diluted in order to obtain a Cp of -22-24 in the assay. Therefore, 25pL of virus suspension was added to ail the wells containing test compound and to the welis assigned as virus control. In parallei, 25pL of culture medium was added to the cell Controls. Next, the plates were incubated for 3 days in a fully humidified incubator (37°C, 5%CO2). After 3 days, the supernatant was removed from the wells and the ceils were washed twice with ice-cold PBS (-100pL). The cell pellets within the 96-weil plates were stored at -80°C for at least 1 day. Next, RNA was extracted using the Cells-to-CT™ lysis kit, according to the manufacturées guideline (Life Technologies). The cell lysâtes can be stored at -80°C or immediately used in the reverse transcription step.
In préparation of the reverse transcription step, mix A (table 3A) was prepared and 7.57pL/well was dispensed in a 96-well plate. After addition of 5pL of the cell lysâtes, a five minute dénaturation step at 75°C was performed (table 3B).
Afterwards, 7.43pL of mix B was added (table 3C) and the reverse transcription step was initiated (table 3D) to generate cDNA.
Finally, a RT-qPCR mix was prepared, mix C (table 4A), and 22.02 pL/well was dispensed in 96-well LightCycler qPCR plates to which 3pL of cDNA was added and the qPCR was performed according to the conditions in table 4B on a
LightCycler 480.
Using the LightCycler software and an in-house LIMS System, dose response curves for each compound were calculated and the half maximal effective concentration (EC50) and the half maximal cytotoxic concentration (CC5o) were determined.

Tetravalent quantitative reverse transcnptase-PCR (RT-qPCR) assay: Protocol B.
The antivira! activity of the compounds of the invention was tested against
DENV-1 strain Djibouti strain (D1/H/IMTSSA/98/606; Table 6), DENV-2 strain
-56NGC (Table 7), DENV-3 strain H87 (Table 8) and DENV-4 strain SG/06K2270DK1/2005 (Table 9B) in a RT-qPCR assay. Vero-B or Vero-M cells (5 * 104) were seeded in 96-well plates. One day later, culture medium was replaced with 100 pL assay medium containing a 2*, 3* or 5* serial dilution of the 5 compound (concentration range: 50 pg/mL - 0.00038 pg/mL, 50 pg/mL 0.0076 pg/mL, and 50 pg/mL - 0.00013 pg/mL, respectively) and 100 pL of dengue virus inoculum (DENV). Following a 2 hour incubation period, the cell monolayer was washed 3 times with assay medium to remove residual, nonadsorbed virus and cultures were further incubated for either 4 days (DENV-2 îo NGC) or 7 days (DENV-1 Djibouti strain D1/H/IMTSSA/98/606, DENV-3 strain H87 prototype, DENV-4 strain H241 ,and DENV-4 strain EDEN) in the presence ofthe inhibitor. Supernatant was harvested and viral RNA load was determined by realtime quantitative RT-PCR. The 50% effective concentration (ECso), which is defined as the compound concentration that is required to inhibit viral RNA réplication by 50%, was determined using logarithmic interpolation.
RNA was isolated from 100 pL (or in some circumstances 150 pL) supernatant with the NucleoSpin 96 Virus kit (Filter Service, Düren, Germany) as described by the manufacturer. The sequences of the TaqMan primers (DENV-For, DENV-Rev; Table 5) and TaqMan probes (DENV-Probe Table 5) were selected from non20 structural gene 3 (NS3) or NS5, ofthe respective flaviviruses using Primer Express software (version 2.0; Applied Biosystems, Lennik, Belgium). The TaqMan probe was fluorescently labelled with 6-carboxyfluorescein (FAM) at the 5’ end as the reporter dye, and with minor groove binder (MGB) at the 3’ end as the quencher (Table 5). One-step, quantitative RT-PCR was performed in a total volume of 25 pL, containing 13.9375 pL H2O, 6.25 pL master mix (Eurogentec, Seraing, Belgium), 0.375 pLforward primer, 0.375 pL reverse primer, 1 pL probe, 0.0625 pL reverse transcriptase (Eurogentec) and 3 pL sample. RT-PCR was performed using the ABI 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, Branchburg, New Jersey, USA) using the following conditions: 30 min at 48 °C and 10 min at 95 °C, followed by 40 cycles of 15 s at 95 °C and 1 min at 60 °C.
The data was analyzed using the ABI PRISM 7500 SDS software (version 1.3.1 ;
Applied Biosystems). Forabsolute quantification, standard curves were generated using 10-fold dilutions of template préparations of known concentrations.

Cytotoxic âssay
Potential cytotoxic effects of the compounds were evaluated in uninfected quiescent Vera-B or Vero-M cells. Cells were seeded at 5 * 104 cells/well in a 96well plate in the présence of two-, three- or five-fold serial dilutions (ranging from
50 pg/mL - 0.0038 pg/mL, 50 pg/mL - 0.0076 pg/mL, and 50 pg/mL 0.00013 pg/mL, respectively) of compound and incubated for 4 to 7 days. Culture medium was discarded and 100 pL 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium/phenazinemethosulfate (MTS/PMS; Promega, Leiden, The Netherlands) in PBS was added to each well.
Following a 2-hour incubation period at 37 °C, the opfical density was determined at 498 nm. Cytotoxic activity was calculated using the following formula: % cell viability = 100 χ (ODCOmpound/ODcc), where ODCompound and ODCC correspond tothe optical density at 498 nm of the uninfected cell cultures treated with compound and that of uninfected, untreated cell cultures, respectively. The 50% cytotoxic concentration (i.e., the concentration that reduces the total cell number with 50%; CC50) was calculated using linear interpolation.
