Definitions

  • the invention relates to compounds useful for inhibiting hepatitis C virus (“HCV”) replication, particularly functions of the non-structural 5B (“NS5B”) protein of HCV.
  • HCV hepatitis C virus
  • NS5B non-structural 5B
  • HCV is a single-stranded RNA virus that is a member of the Flaviviridae family.
  • the virus shows extensive genetic heterogeneity as there are currently seven identified genotypes and more than 50 identified subtypes.
  • viral RNA is translated into a polyprotein that is cleaved into ten individual proteins.
  • structural proteins the core (C) protein and the envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2.
  • E1 and E2. p7, an integral membrane protein, follows E1 and E2.
  • NS5B is the RNA polymerase or replicase of the virus and is responsible for replication of both positive and negative-strand genomic RNA during the viral replicative cycle. NS5B plays an essential and critical role in viral replication, and a functional NS5B replicase is required for HCV replication and infection. Thus, inhibition of NS5B RNA-dependent polymerase activity is believed to be an effective way of treating HCV infection.
  • HCV infection can lead to chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Chronic HCV infection is thus a major worldwide cause of liver-related premature mortality.
  • the current standard of care treatment regimen for HCV infection involves interferon-alpha, alone, or in combination with ribavirin and a protease inhibitor.
  • the treatment is cumbersome and sometimes has debilitating and severe side effects and many patients do not durably respond to treatment New and effective methods of treating HCV infection are urgently needed.
  • the present disclosure describes a class of compounds targeting the NS5B protein and methods of their use to treat HCV infection in humans.
  • the present disclosure describes a class of heterocyclic compounds targeting HCV NS5B polymerase and methods of their use to treat HCV infection in humans.
