Discovery and preclinical evaluation of potent, orally bioavailable, metabolically stable cyclopropylindolobenzazepine acylsulfonamides as thumb site 1 inhibitors of the hepatitis c virus NS5B RNA-dependent, RNA polymerase
文摘
Herein, we describe the synthesis, antiviral structure–activity relationships (SAR), metabolic stability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties for a series of cyclopropylindolobenzazepine acylsulfonamide HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitors. Optimization of SAR, metabolic stability and PK led to the identification of compound 19 which was advanced into pre-IND enabling toxicology studies.
