Technical Field

The present disclosure relates generally to inhibitors of influenza virus replication, and methods of treating or preventing influenza infection by administering the inhibitors to a patient in need of treatment.

Background

Influenza spreads worldwide in a seasonal fashion, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths per year, with millions in pandemic years. For example, three influenza pandemics occurred in the 20 th century, and killed tens of millions of people, with each pandemic being caused by the emergence of novel strains of human viruses. Typically, these novel strains arise as a result of transmission of existing influenza viruses from other animal species to humans.

Influenza is transmitted from person to person primarily via larger virus-carrying droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes; these larger droplets may then settle on the mucosal surfaces of the upper respiratory tract of susceptible individuals in the vicinity of (e.g., within about 6 feet of) an infected person. Transmission can also occur via direct contact or indirect contact with respiratory secretions (such as touching a surface contaminated with influenza virus and then touching the eyes, nose or mouth). Adults may transmit influenza to others within 1 day before symptoms appear to about 5 days after symptoms begin. Young children and people with weak immune systems may remain contagious 10 or more days after the onset of symptoms.

Influenza viruses are RNA viruses of the orthomyxoviridae family, which includes five genera: influenza A virus, influenza B virus, influenza C virus, infectious salmon anemia virus (Isavirus) and Togao virus (Thogoto virus).

Influenza a viruses can cause seasonal influenza and pandemic influenza epidemics. It has one species, influenza a virus, and wild waterfowl is the natural host for many influenza a viruses. Occasionally, the virus spreads to other species and can then cause destructive outbreaks in poultry or produce human influenza pandemics. Type a viruses are the most virulent human pathogens of the three influenza types and cause the most serious diseases. Influenza a viruses can be subdivided into different serotypes based on antibody responses to these viruses. Among the serotypes identified in humans, ranked by the number of known human pandemic deaths, are: H1N1 (which caused spanish influenza in 1918), H2N2 (which caused asian influenza in 1957), H3N2 (which caused hong kong influenza in 1968), H5N1 (pandemic threat in influenza season between 2007 and 2008), H7N7 (which is a potential pandemic threat), H1N2 (endemic disease present in humans and pigs), H9N2, H7N2, H7N3 and H10N 7.

Influenza B virus can cause seasonal influenza and has one species, influenza B virus. Influenza B almost completely infects humans and is less prevalent than influenza a. The only other animal known to be susceptible to influenza B infection is seal. This type of influenza mutates at a rate 2 to 3 times slower than type a and is therefore less genetically diverse, having only one influenza B serotype. Due to this lack of antigenic diversity, a certain degree of immunity to influenza B is usually obtained early. However, influenza B is sufficiently mutated that sustained immunity is not possible. This reduced rate of antigenic change, combined with its restricted host range (inhibition of cross species antigen transfer), ensures that a pandemic of influenza B does not occur.

Influenza C virus has one species, influenza C virus, which infects humans and pigs and can cause severe disease and local epidemics. However, influenza C is less prevalent than other types and appears to often cause mild disease in children.

The structures of influenza viruses of each serotype and genus are very similar. The influenza genome consists of eight single-stranded RNAs packaged into rod-like structures of different sizes, called ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs). Each RNP contains a unique viral RNA, multiple copies of backbone nucleoproteins, and a heterologous trimeric viral polymerase consisting of PA, PB1, and PB2 subunits, which catalyzes transcription and replication of the viral genome. Recent biochemical and structural studies of the influenza polymerase complex provide insight into the mechanistic understanding of cap-robbing (cap-snatching) and RNA synthesis by influenza polymerase. Briefly, the PB2 end cap binding domain first binds to its 5' end cap to isolate the host precursor mRNA. PA, endonuclease subunit, followed by decomposition of 10-13 nucleotides of captured pre-mRNA downstream of the end cap. The PB2 subunit was then spun about 700 to direct the capping primer into the PB1 polymerase active site. The PB1 subunit interacts directly with the PB2 and PA subunits. These subunits contain highly conserved domains in different influenza strains and are attracted as attractive anti-influenza drug targets. In addition to the polymerase complex, the influenza genome encodes its own Neuraminidase (NA), Hemagglutinin (HA), Nucleoprotein (NP), matrix proteins M1 and M2 and nonstructural proteins NS1 and NS 2. NA is the target of the antiviral drugs oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (zanamivir) (renenza). These drugs are sialic acid analogs that inhibit the enzymatic activity of NA, thereby slowing the release of progeny virus from infected cells.

Influenza incurs direct costs due to lost productivity and related medical treatments, and indirect costs due to preventive measures. In the united states, influenza costs a total of over 100 billion dollars per year, while it is estimated that future pandemics can cause direct and indirect costs in the billions of dollars. The cost of control is also high. Governments worldwide have spent billions of dollars in preparing and planning for a potential H5N1 avian influenza pandemic, with costs associated with purchasing medications and vaccines and conducting disaster maneuvers and developing strategies for improved border control.

Current treatment options for influenza include vaccination and chemotherapy or chemoprevention using antiviral drugs. Vaccination against influenza with influenza vaccines is generally recommended for high risk groups such as children and the elderly, or people with asthma, diabetes or heart disease. However, it is possible that influenza still develops after vaccination. The vaccine is re-formulated for several specific influenza virus strains each season, but may not contain all the strains that effectively infect people worldwide during that season. Manufacturers spend about six months making up and producing millions of doses needed to handle seasonal behavior; occasionally, new or overlooked virus strains become prominent during that period and infect already vaccinated people (e.g. H3N2 fujian influenza in the 2003 to 2004 flu season). It may also happen to be infected just before vaccination and with the particular viral strain that the vaccine should prevent, since it takes about two weeks for the vaccine to be effective.

Furthermore, the effectiveness of these influenza vaccines is variable. Because of the high mutation rate of viruses, certain influenza vaccines typically provide protection for no more than a few years. A vaccine formulated for one year may not be effective in the next year because influenza viruses change rapidly over time and different virus strains become dominant.

Due to the absence of RNA-correcting enzymes, the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of influenza vRNA generates a nucleotide insertion error approximately every ten thousand nucleotides (which is approximately the length of influenza vRNA). Thus, almost every newly manufactured influenza virus has a mutant antigen drift. The separation of the genome into eight separate segments of vRNA allows for mixing or reassortment of vRNA when more than one strain infects a single cell. The resulting rapid changes in viral genetics produce antigen transfer and allow the virus to infect novel host species and rapidly overcome protective immunity.

Antiviral drugs may also be used to treat influenza, where NA inhibitors are particularly effective, but the virus may develop resistance to approved NA antiviral drugs. Furthermore, the emergence of multi-drug resistant pandemic influenza a virus has been well documented. Drug resistant pandemic influenza a becomes a significant public health threat. In addition to resistant influenza a viruses, NA inhibitors are approved for the treatment of early stage influenza infection (within 48 hours of onset of influenza symptoms).

Thus, there remains a need for drugs for treating influenza infections, such as drugs with an extended therapeutic window and/or reduced sensitivity to viral titers.

TABLE A

Application method

The compounds described herein, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can be used to reduce viral titer in a biological sample (e.g., infected cell culture) or in a human (e.g., pulmonary viral titer in a patient).

As used herein, the terms "influenza virus-mediated symptom," "influenza infection," or "influenza" are used interchangeably to mean a disease caused by an influenza virus infection.

Influenza is an infectious disease caused by influenza virus that affects birds and mammals. Influenza viruses are RNA viruses of the orthomyxoviridae family, which includes five genera: influenza A virus, influenza B virus, influenza C virus, infectious salmon anemia virus and Togavirus. Influenza a virus genus has one species, influenza a virus, which can be subdivided into different serotypes based on antibody responses to these viruses: H1N1, H2N2, H3N2, H5N1, H7N7, H1N2, H9N2, H7N2, H7N3, H7N9, and H10N 7. Influenza B virus has one species, influenza B virus. Influenza B almost completely infects humans and is less prevalent than influenza a. Influenza C virus has one species, influenza C virus, which infects humans and pigs and can cause severe disease and local epidemics. However, influenza C viruses are less prevalent than other types and appear to often cause mild disease in children.

In some embodiments, the influenza or influenza virus is associated with an influenza a or B virus. In some embodiments, the influenza or influenza virus is associated with influenza a virus. In some particular embodiments, the influenza a virus is H1N1, H2N2, H3N2, H7N9, or H5N 1.

In humans, common symptoms of influenza are chills, fever, pharyngitis, muscle aches, severe headaches, coughing, weakness and general malaise. In more severe cases, influenza causes pneumonia, which can be fatal, especially for young children and the elderly. Although it is often confused with the cold, influenza is a much more serious disease and is caused by different virus types. Influenza can cause nausea and vomiting, particularly in children, but these symptoms are more characteristic of unrelated gastroenteritis, sometimes referred to as "gastric flu" or "24 hour flu".

Symptoms of influenza can appear quite suddenly one to two days after infection. Typically, the first symptom is chills or intolerance of cold, but fever is also common early in the infection, with body temperatures ranging from 38 ℃ to 39 ℃ (about 100 ° f to 103 ° f). Many people are so ill that they are bedridden for several days with general pain and discomfort that is severe in their backs and legs. Symptoms of influenza may include: general pain (especially in joints and throat), extreme cold and fever, weakness, headache, eye irritation tearing, eye redness, skin (especially facial) redness, mouth redness, throat redness and nasal redness, abdominal pain (children with influenza type B). Symptoms of influenza are not specific, but are superimposed on many pathogens ("influenza-like diseases"). Often, laboratory data is required to confirm the diagnosis.

The terms "disease," "disorder," and "symptom" are used interchangeably herein to refer to an influenza virus-mediated medical or pathological condition.

As used herein, the terms "individual" and "patient" are used interchangeably. The terms "subject" and "patient" refer to an animal (e.g., a bird such as a chicken, quail or turkey, or a mammal), specifically, "mammal" includes non-primates (e.g., cows, pigs, horses, sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, cats, dogs, and mice) and primates (e.g., monkeys, chimpanzees, and humans), and more specifically, humans. In some embodiments, the subject is a non-human animal, such as a farm animal (e.g., a horse, cow, pig, or sheep), or a pet (e.g., a dog, cat, guinea pig, or rabbit). In a preferred embodiment, the subject is a "human".

As used herein, the term "biological sample" includes, but is not limited to, cell cultures or extracts thereof; biopsy material obtained from a mammal or an extract thereof; blood, saliva, urine, feces, semen, tears, or other body fluids or extracts thereof.

As used herein, the term "inhibiting replication of influenza virus" encompasses both reducing the amount of viral replication (e.g., by at least 10%) and completely inhibiting viral replication (i.e., 100% reducing the amount of viral replication). In some embodiments, replication of the influenza virus is inhibited by at least 50%, at least 65%, at least 75%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95%.

Influenza virus replication can be measured by any suitable method known in the art. For example, the influenza virus titer of a biological sample (e.g., infected cell culture) or a human (e.g., a patient's lung virus titer) can be measured. More specifically, for cell-based assays, in each case where cells are cultured in vitro, virus is added to the culture in the presence or absence of the test agent, and the virus-dependent endpoints are assessed after a suitable length of time. For a typical assay, Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK) and standard tissue cultures appropriate for the influenza strain A/Puerto Rico/8/34 can be used. The first type of cell analysis that can be used depends on the death of the infected target cells, a process known as cytopathic effect (CPE), where viral infection causes depletion of the cellular source and eventual lysis of the cells. In the first type of cell assay, a small fraction of the cells in the wells of a microtiter plate are infected (typically 1/10-1/1000), the virus is subjected to several rounds of replication in 48-72 hours, and the amount of cell death is then measured using a reduction in cellular ATP content compared to uninfected controls. The second type of cellular analysis that can be used depends on the proliferation of virus-specific RNA molecules in the infected cells, where the RNA content is directly measured using the branched-chain DNA hybridization method (bDNA). In the second type of cell analysis, a lower number of cells are initially infected in the wells of a microtiter plate, the virus is replicated in the infected cells and spread to additional rounds of cells, which are then lysed and the viral RNA content is measured. This assay is usually stopped early after 18 to 36 hours, when all target cells are still viable. Viral RNA is quantified by hybridizing to specific oligonucleotide probes immobilized to the wells of the assay plate, followed by amplification of the signal by hybridization with additional probes linked to a reporter enzyme.

As used herein, "viral titer" or "titer" is a measure of viral concentration.Titer testing can employ serial dilutions to obtain approximate quantitative information from analytical procedures that themselves only evaluate as positive or negative. Titer corresponds to the highest dilution factor that still produced a positive reading; for example, positive reads in the first 8 serial two-fold dilutions converted to titers of 1: 256. A specific example is virus titer. To determine titre, several dilutions will be made, e.g. 10-1、10-2、10-3、……、10-8. The lowest concentration of virus that still infects cells is the virus titer.

As used herein, the term "treatment" refers to both therapeutic and prophylactic treatment. For example, therapeutic treatment includes reducing or ameliorating the progression, severity, and/or duration of an influenza virus-mediated condition, or ameliorating one or more symptoms (in particular, one or more discernible symptoms) of an influenza virus-mediated condition, by administering one or more therapies (e.g., one or more therapeutic agents, such as a compound or composition of the invention). In particular embodiments, the therapeutic treatment comprises ameliorating at least one measurable physical parameter of an influenza virus-mediated condition. In other embodiments, the therapeutic treatment comprises physically inhibiting the progression of the influenza virus-mediated condition, for example, by stabilizing a discernible symptom, physiologically, for example, by stabilizing a physical parameter, or both. In other embodiments, the therapeutic treatment comprises reducing or stabilizing an influenza virus-mediated infection. Antiviral drugs can be used in the community setting to treat people already with influenza, to reduce the severity of symptoms and to reduce their days of illness.

The term "chemotherapy" refers to the treatment of a disorder or disease with a drug, such as a small molecule drug (rather than a "vaccine").

As used herein, the terms "prevention", "prophylactic use" and "prophylactic treatment" refer to any medical or public health procedure aimed at preventing, rather than treating or curing, a disease. As used herein, the term "preventing" refers to reducing the risk of developing or manifesting an established condition, or reducing or inhibiting the recurrence of or the condition in an individual who is not ill but who has become or may be near to becoming a patient-carrying person. The term "chemoprevention" refers to the treatment of a disorder or disease with a drug, such as a small molecule drug (rather than a "vaccine").

As used herein, prophylactic use includes use in situations where outbreaks have been detected to prevent contagious infection or spread in locations where a large number of people in close contact with each other, such as hospital wards, day care centers, prisons, nursing centers, etc., are at high risk of serious influenza complications. It also includes use in people who need protection from influenza, but do not obtain protection after vaccination (e.g. due to a weaker immune system), or when the vaccine is not available for it or when it is not available due to side effects. It also encompasses use within two weeks after vaccination or during any period after vaccination but before the vaccine is effective. Prophylactic use may also include treating persons who are not suffering from influenza or are not considered to have a high risk of complications, to reduce the chance of contracting the influenza and transmitting it to persons at high risk of being in close contact therewith (e.g., healthcare workers, nursing center workers, etc.).

As used herein and in accordance with the american centers for Disease Control (US CDC), an influenza "outbreak" is defined as a sharp increase in the Acute Febrile Respiratory Illness (AFRI) occurring within a period of 48 to 72 hours in a population in close proximity to each other (e.g., in the same area of a assisted living facility, in the same household, etc.) relative to the normal prior art rate or when any individual in the population analyzed tests positive for influenza. One instance of influenza identified by any test method is considered an outbreak.

As used herein, "index case", "primary case" or "patient zero" is the first patient in the population sample of the epidemiological study. The indicated case was the first patient to indicate the presence of an outbreak. Earlier cases may be found and labeled as primary, secondary, tertiary, etc.

In some embodiments, the methods of the invention are prophylactic or preventative measures against patients (particularly humans) susceptible to complications caused by infection with influenza virus. The prophylactic methods described herein can be used in situations where it is confirmed that an indication of a case or outbreak is present to prevent the spread of infection in the rest of the community or population.

In some embodiments, the methods of the invention are applied as a prophylactic measure to members of a community or population, particularly humans, to prevent the spread of infection.

As used herein, "effective amount" refers to an amount sufficient to elicit a desired biological response. In the present invention, the desired biological response is to inhibit replication of influenza virus, to reduce the amount of influenza virus or to reduce or ameliorate the severity, duration, progression or onset of influenza virus infection, to prevent the acceleration of influenza virus infection, to prevent the recurrence, manifestation, onset or progression of symptoms associated with influenza virus infection, or to enhance or improve the prophylactic or therapeutic effect of another therapy used against influenza infection. The precise amount of the compound to be administered to an individual will depend on the mode of administration, the type and severity of the infection and the characteristics of the individual, such as general health, age, sex, weight and tolerance to drugs. One skilled in the art will be able to determine the appropriate dosage based on these and other factors. When co-administered with other antiviral agents, for example when co-administered with an anti-influenza drug, the effective amount of the second agent will depend on the type of drug used. A safe amount is an amount with minimal side effects, as can be readily determined by one skilled in the art. Suitable dosages for approved agents are known and can be adjusted by one of skill in the art depending on the condition of the individual, the type of condition being treated, and the amount of the compound described herein used. In the case where the amount is not explicitly labeled, a safe and effective amount should be assumed. For example, a compound described herein may be administered to a subject for therapeutic or prophylactic treatment at a dosage range of between about 0.01 and 100 mg/kg body weight/day.

As used herein, a "safe and effective amount" of a compound or composition described herein is an effective amount of the compound or composition that does not cause excessive or harmful side effects in a patient.

In general, the dosing regimen may be selected based on a variety of factors including: the condition being treated and the severity of the condition; the activity of the particular compound employed; the particular composition employed; the age, weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion of the particular compound employed; the renal and hepatic function of the individual; and the particular compound or salt employed, the duration of treatment; drugs used in combination or concomitantly with the particular compound employed; and similar factors well known in the medical arts. A safe and effective amount of a compound described herein needed for treating, preventing, inhibiting (in whole or in part), or arresting the progression of a disease can be readily determined and established by those skilled in the art.

The dosage of the compounds described herein may range between about 0.01 to about 100 mg/kg body weight/day, about 0.01 to about 50 mg/kg body weight/day, about 0.1 to about 50 mg/kg body weight/day, or about 1 to about 25 mg/kg body weight/day. It is understood that the total amount per day may be administered in a single dose, or may be administered in multiple doses, such as twice a day (e.g., every 12 hours), three times a day (e.g., every 8 hours), or four times a day (e.g., every 6 hours).

For therapeutic treatment, a compound described herein can be administered to a patient within, e.g., 48 hours (or within 40 hours, or less than 2 days, or less than 1.5 days or 24 hours) of the onset of symptoms (e.g., nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, pain, weakness, headache, and cold/night sweats). The therapeutic treatment may be for any suitable duration, e.g., for 5 days, 7 days, 10 days, 14 days, etc. For prophylactic treatment during a community outbreak, the compounds described herein can be administered to a patient, for example, within 2 days of the onset of symptoms in the indicated case, and can last for any suitable duration, e.g., for 7 days, 10 days, 14 days, 20 days, 28 days, 35 days, 42 days, etc.

Combination therapy

The compounds described herein, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can be administered alone or in combination with additional suitable therapeutic agents, such as antiviral agents or vaccines. When combination therapy is employed, a safe and effective amount may be obtained using a first amount of a compound as disclosed herein, e.g., any of the compounds of formula A, B or C or any of formulae 1 to 13, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a second amount of an additional suitable therapeutic agent (e.g., an antiviral agent or vaccine).

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and the additional therapeutic agent are each administered in a safe and effective amount (i.e., each in an amount that is therapeutically effective if administered alone). In some embodiments, the compound and additional therapeutic agent are each administered in an amount that alone does not provide a therapeutic effect (lower than the therapeutic dose). In some embodiments, the compound may be administered in a safe and effective amount, while the additional therapeutic agent is administered at a lower than therapeutic dose. In some embodiments, the compound may be administered at a lower therapeutic dose while the additional therapeutic agent, e.g., a suitable cancer therapeutic agent, is administered in a safe and effective amount.

As used herein, the terms "combination therapy," "combination," and "co-administration" or "co-administration" are used interchangeably to refer to the use of more than one therapy (e.g., one or more prophylactic and/or therapeutic agents). The use of the terms does not limit the order of therapy (e.g., prophylactic and/or therapeutic) administered to an individual.

Co-administration may encompass administering the combined first and second amounts of the compound in a substantially simultaneous manner, such as in a single pharmaceutical composition, e.g., a capsule or tablet having a fixed ratio of the first and second amounts, or in a plurality of respective individual capsules or tablets. In addition, such co-administration may also encompass the use of each compound in a sequential manner, in either order.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a combination therapy for a method of inhibiting influenza virus replication or treating or preventing influenza virus infection in a patient using a compound or pharmaceutical composition of the invention in a biological sample or patient. Accordingly, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein also include those comprising an inhibitor of influenza virus replication as described herein in combination with an antiviral compound that exhibits anti-influenza virus activity.

Methods of use also include combinations of chemotherapy with a compound described herein or with a compound disclosed herein in combination with other antiviral agents and vaccination with an influenza vaccine.

Where co-administration involves administering a first amount of a compound as described herein and a second amount of an additional therapeutic agent separately, the compound and agent are administered in sufficient proximity to have the desired therapeutic effect. For example, the period of time between administrations that can produce a desired therapeutic effect can range from minutes to hours, and can be determined taking into account the characteristics of each compound (e.g., potency, solubility, bioavailability, plasma half-life, and kinetic profile). For example, a compound and a second therapeutic agent as described herein can be administered in any order within about 24 hours of each other, within about 16 hours of each other, within about 8 hours of each other, within about 4 hours of each other, within about 1 hour of each other, or within about 30 minutes of each other.

More specifically, a first therapy (e.g., a prophylactic or therapeutic agent, such as a compound of the invention) can be administered prior to (e.g., 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 96 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 5 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, or 12 weeks before), concurrently with, or after (e.g., 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 96 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 5 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, or 12 weeks after) administration of an additional therapeutic agent (e.g., an antiviral agent or an influenza vaccine) to a subject.

It is understood that a method of co-administering a first amount of a compound as described herein and a second amount of an additional therapeutic agent may produce an enhanced or synergistic therapeutic effect, where the combined effect is greater than the additive effect produced by the individual administration of the first amount of the compound as described herein and the second amount of the additional therapeutic agent.

As used herein, the term "synergistic" refers to a combination of a compound of the invention and another therapy (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic agent) that is more effective than the additive effects of the therapies. The synergistic effect of a combination of therapies (e.g., a combination of prophylactic or therapeutic agents) may allow for the use of lower doses of one or more of the therapies and/or less frequent administration of the therapies to an individual. Being able to utilize lower doses of therapy (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic agents) and/or less frequently administering the therapy can reduce the toxicity associated with administering the therapy to an individual without reducing the efficacy of the therapy in preventing, treating, or treating a condition. In addition, the synergistic effect may result in an improved efficacy of the agent in preventing, treating or treating the condition. Finally, the synergistic effect of a combination of therapies (e.g., a combination of prophylactic or therapeutic agents) can avoid or reduce adverse or undesirable side effects associated with the use of either therapy alone.

When combination therapy using the compounds of the present invention is combined with an influenza vaccine, the two therapeutic agents may be administered such that the period between administrations may be longer (e.g., days, weeks, or months).

The presence of a synergistic effect may be determined using suitable methods for assessing drug interactions. Suitable methods include, for example, the Sigmoid-Emax equation (Holford, N.H.G. and Scheiner, L.B., "clinical pharmacokinetics (Clin. Pharmacokinet) 6:429-453(1981)), the Loewe addition equation (Loewe, S and Muischnek, H.," Experimental pathology and pharmacology archives (Arch. Exp. Pathol. Pharmacol.) 114:313-326(1926)) and the efficacy equation (Chou, T.C. and Talalay, P., "Adv. enzyme Regulation progress (adv. enzyme Regul.)) 22:27-55 (1984)). The above mentioned programs can be applied to experimental data to generate corresponding charts that help assess the effect of drug combinations. The corresponding graphs associated with the above mentioned equations are the concentration-effect curve, the isobologram curve and the combined index curve, respectively.

Vaccine against influenza

The compounds described herein may be administered prophylactically in conjunction with an anti-influenza vaccine. These vaccines can be administered, for example, via subcutaneous or intranasal administration. Vaccination via subcutaneous injection typically induces IgG antibodies in serum with neutralizing activity and is extremely effective in preventing the progression of disease states to more severe disease states such as pneumonia and the like. IgA, however, is the major prophylactic component in the upper respiratory mucosa as the site of infection. IgA is also may be advantageous for administration of vaccines via the intranasal route, as it is not induced by subcutaneous administration.

Antiviral inhibitors

Various other compounds may be used in combination with the compounds described herein to treat or prevent influenza infection. Approved compounds include Neuraminidase (NA) inhibitors, ion channel (M2) inhibitors, polymerase (PB1) inhibitors, and other influenza antiviral agents.

There are three FDA-approved influenza antiviral drugs for use against influenza virus, comprising(zanamivir),(oseltamivir phosphate) and(peramivir)) earlier drugs, e.g.(amantadine) andrimantadine is approved for the treatment and prevention of influenza a.

Neuraminidase (NA) inhibitors are a class of drugs that block neuraminidase. It is commonly used as an antiviral drug because it blocks the function of viral neuraminidase of influenza virus by preventing propagation of influenza virus by budding from host cells. Representative neuraminidase inhibitors comprise oseltamivirZanamivirRanina mivirAnd peramivir

M2 inhibitors may also be used. The matrix-2 (M2) protein is a proton-selective ion channel protein and is entirely located in the viral envelope of influenza A virus.

The anti-influenza virus drug amantadine is a specific blocker of the M2H + channel. Amantadine (comprising amantadine and rimantadine) has been widely abandoned because of virus resistance, but combination therapy can mitigate the development of resistance to these agents, as viruses that become resistant to one active agent can still be treated by the other agents in the combination therapy.

Inhibitors of influenza RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) include favipiravir (favipiravir) and the compounds described in PCT WO 2013/138236. Additional compounds disclosed in Muratore et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA (PNAS), 109(16), 6247-:

specific examples of compounds that may be co-administered with the compounds described herein include: neuraminidase inhibitors, e.g. oseltamivirAnd zanamivirBlockers of viral ion channels (M2 protein), e.g. amantadineAnd rimantadineAnd antiviral drugs described in WO 2003/015798, including T-705 in the development of Fushan Chemical of Japan (Toyama Chemical). (see also ruuta et al, Antiviral res.,82:95-102(2009)) in some embodiments, the compounds described herein may be co-administered with a traditional influenza vaccine.

The compounds described herein may be useful as inhibitors of influenza virus replication in biological samples or patients. These compounds may also be useful for reducing the amount of influenza virus (virus titer) in a biological sample or patient. It may also be suitable for the therapeutic and prophylactic treatment of infections caused by influenza viruses in biological samples or patients.

Chiral separation

The compounds described herein may have asymmetric centers and exist as racemates, racemic mixtures, individual diastereomers or enantiomers, with all isomeric forms being embraced by the present invention. The compounds described herein having chiral centers may exist and be isolated in optically active and racemic forms. Some compounds may exhibit polymorphism. The present disclosure encompasses racemic, optically-active, polymorphic, or stereoisomeric forms, or mixtures thereof, of the compounds described herein having useful properties described herein. Optically active forms can be prepared, for example, by resolution of the racemic form by recrystallization techniques, by synthesis from optically active starting materials, by chiral synthesis, or by chromatographic separation using a chiral stationary phase, or by enzymatic resolution. We can purify the corresponding compound, followed by derivatizing the compound to form the compounds described herein or purifying the compound itself.

Optically active forms of the compounds can be prepared using any method known in the art, including, but not limited to, by resolution of the racemic form using recrystallization techniques, by synthesis from optically active starting materials, by chiral synthesis, or by chromatographic separation using a chiral stationary phase.

Examples of the method for obtaining an optically active substance include at least the following.

i)Physical separation of the crystals:techniques whereby the macroscopic crystallization of individual enantiomers is separated manually. This technique can be used if crystals of the respective enantiomers exist, i.e., the substance is an agglomerate and the crystals are visually distinct;

ii)and (3) simultaneous crystallization:the technique of crystallizing individual enantiomers separately from a solution of the racemate is only possible when the racemate is a solid agglomerate;

iii)enzymatic resolution:whereby racemates are partially or completely separated by virtue of the difference in the reaction rate of the enantiomers with the enzyme;

iv)enzymatic asymmetric synthesis:at least one step of the synthesis uses synthetic techniques of enzymatic reactions to obtain enantiomerically pure or enriched synthetic precursors of the desired enantiomer;

v)chemical asymmetric synthesis:synthetic techniques whereby the desired enantiomer is synthesized from an achiral precursor under conditions that produce asymmetry (i.e., chirality) in the product, can be achieved using chiral catalysts or chiral auxiliary agents;

vi)Diastereomer separation:whereby the racemic compound and the individual pairsTechniques for the reaction of enantiomerically pure reagents (chiral auxiliary) for the conversion of enantiomers to diastereomers. The resulting diastereoisomers are then separated by chromatography or crystallization by virtue of their now more pronounced structural differences and subsequent removal of the chiral auxiliary to give the desired enantiomer;

vii)first and second stages of asymmetric transformation:techniques in which diastereoisomeric equilibrium from a racemate is preferentially resolved to give diastereoisomers from a desired enantiomer, or preferential crystallization of diastereoisomers from a desired enantiomer interferes with equilibrium so that ultimately substantially all of the material is converted to a crystalline diastereoisomer from a desired enantiomer. Followed by liberation of the desired enantiomer from the diastereomer;

viii)and (3) kinetic resolution:this technique refers to the partial or complete resolution of racemates (or further resolution of partially resolved compounds) achieved by virtue of the unequal reaction rates of the enantiomers with chiral non-racemic reagents or catalysts under kinetic conditions;

ix)enantiospecific synthesis from non-racemic precursors:synthetic techniques whereby the desired enantiomer is obtained from a non-chiral starting material and wherein the stereochemical integrity is not or only minimally impaired during the synthesis;

x)Chiral liquid chromatography:techniques whereby the enantiomers of a racemate are separated by virtue of their different interactions with a stationary phase, including (but not limited to) via chiral HPLC, in a liquid mobile phase. The stationary phase may be made of a chiral substance or the mobile phase may contain another chiral substance to cause different interactions;

xi)chiral gas chromatography:techniques whereby the racemate is volatilized and the enantiomers are separated by virtue of their different interactions in the gas mobile phase with a column containing a fixed non-racemic chiral adsorbent phase;

xii)extraction with a chiral solvent:whereby the enantiomers are separated by preferential dissolution of one enantiomer in a particular chiral solvent;

xiii)transport across the chiral membrane:thereby contacting the racemate with the film barrier. The barrier typically separates two miscible fluids, one containing the racemate, and the driving force (e.g., concentration or pressure differential) causes preferential transport across the membrane barrier. The separation is carried out by the non-racemic chiral nature of the membrane, which allows only one enantiomer of the racemate to pass through.

In one embodiment, chiral chromatography, including but not limited to simulated moving bed chromatography, is used. A variety of chiral stationary phases are commercially available.

In general, the term "substituted," whether or not preceded by the term "optionally," means that one or more hydrogen groups in a given structure are replaced with a group of a particular substituent. Unless otherwise specified, an optionally substituted group may have a substituent at each substitutable position of the group. When more than one position in a given structure may be substituted with more than one substituent selected from a particular group, the substituents may be the same or different at each position. When the term "optionally substituted" precedes a list, the term refers to all subsequent substitutable groups in the list. If the substituents or structures are not present Identified or defined as "optionally substituted," then the substituent or structure is unsubstituted. For example, if X is optionally substituted C1-C3Alkyl or phenyl; then X may be optionally substituted C1-C3Alkyl or optionally substituted phenyl. Likewise, if the term "optionally substituted" follows a list, the term also refers to all substitutable groups in the previous list, unless otherwise indicated. For example: if X is C1-C3Alkyl or phenyl, wherein X is optionally and independently via JXSubstituted, then C1-C3Alkyl and phenyl groups may optionally be via JXAnd (4) substitution.

The terms "a bond" and "absent" are used interchangeably to indicate that a group is absent.

The compounds described herein are defined herein by their chemical structures and/or chemical names. When a compound is referred to by and conflicts with a chemical name through a chemical structure and a chemical name, the chemical structure determines the identity of the compound.

Pharmaceutically acceptable salts

The compounds described herein may be present in free form or, where appropriate, in the form of a salt. Those salts which are pharmaceutically acceptable are of particular interest as they are suitable for administration of the compounds for medical use described below. Non-pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful in manufacturing processes for isolation and purification purposes, and in some instances, for isolating stereoisomeric forms of the compounds described herein or intermediates thereof.

As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to salts of compounds which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue side effects (such as toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like) commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.

Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, s.m. berge et al, in the journal of medical Sciences (j. pharmaceutical Sciences), 1977,66,1-19, which is incorporated herein by reference, describe in detail pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein include those derived from suitable inorganic acids and bases as well as organic acids and bases. These salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds.

In the case where the compounds described herein contain a base or sufficiently basic bioisostere, the acid addition salts may be prepared by 1) reacting the purified compound in its free base form with a suitable organic or inorganic acid and 2) isolating the salt thus formed. In practice, acid addition salts may be in a more suitable form for use, and the use of such salts is equivalent to the use of the free base form.

Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salts are salts of amino groups with inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid and perchloric acid, or organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid or malonic acid, or by using other methods used in the art such as ion exchange. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include adipates, alginates, ascorbates, aspartates, benzenesulfonates, benzoates, bisulfates, borates, butyrates, camphorates, camphorsulfonates, citrates, cyclopentanepropionates, digluconates, dodecylsulfates, ethanesulfonates, formates, fumarates, glucoheptonates, glycerophosphates, glycolates, gluconates, glycolates, hemisulfates, heptanoates, hexanoates, hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, hydroiodides, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonates, lactobionates, lactates, laurylsulfates, malates, maleates, malonates, methanesulfonates, 2-naphthalenesulfonates, nicotinates, nitrates, oleates, oxalates, palmitates, pamoate, embonate, pamoate, and the like, Pectate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, salicylate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate and the like.

In the case where the compounds described herein contain a carboxyl group or a sufficiently acidic bioisostere, base addition salts can be prepared by 1) reacting the purified compound in its acid form with a suitable organic or inorganic base and 2) isolating the salt thus formed. In practice, the use of base addition salts may be more suitable, and the use of the salt form itself corresponds to the use of the free acid form. Salts derived from suitable bases include alkali metals (e.g., sodium, lithium, and potassium), alkaline earth metals (e.g., magnesium and calcium), ammonium, and N+(C1-4Alkyl radical)4And (3) salt. The present disclosure also contemplates the quaternization of any basic nitrogen-containing group of the compounds disclosed herein. Water-or oil-soluble or dispersible products are obtained by such quaternization.

Base addition salts include pharmaceutically acceptable metal and amine salts. Suitable metal salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, barium, zinc, magnesium and aluminum. Sodium and potassium salts are generally preferred. Other pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, where appropriate, non-toxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium and amine cations formed using counter ions such as halide, hydroxide, carboxylate, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, lower alkyl sulfonate and aryl sulfonate. Suitable inorganic base addition salts are prepared from metal bases including sodium hydride, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, zinc hydroxide, and the like. Suitable amine base addition salts are prepared from amines which are commonly used in pharmaceutical chemistry because of their low toxicity and acceptability for medical use. Ammonia, ethylenediamine, N-methyl-glucamine, lysine, arginine, ornithine, choline, N' -benzhydrylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, diethanolamine, procaine, N-benzylphenethylamine, diethylamine, piperazine, tris (hydroxymethyl) -aminomethane, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, triethylamine, benzhydrylamine, diphenylhydroxymethylamine, dehydroabietylamine, N-ethylpiperidine, benzylamine, tetramethylammonium, tetraethylammonium, methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, ethylamine, basic amino acids, dicyclohexylamine, and the like.

Other acids and bases, when not pharmaceutically acceptable per se, may be used to prepare salts useful as intermediates in obtaining the compounds described herein and pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base addition salts thereof.

It is to be understood that the present disclosure encompasses mixtures/combinations of different pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and also encompasses mixtures/combinations of the compound in free form and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

Pharmaceutical composition

The compounds described herein can be formulated into pharmaceutical compositions further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. In some embodiments, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. In some embodiments, the present disclosure encompasses a pharmaceutical composition comprising a safe and effective amount of a compound described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, adjuvant, or vehicle. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include, for example, pharmaceutical diluents, excipients or carriers appropriately selected with respect to the intended form of administration and in accordance with conventional pharmaceutical practice.

An "effective amount" includes both a "therapeutically effective amount" and a "prophylactically effective amount".

Formulations for pulmonary delivery

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein are suitable for administration directly via the respiratory tract to the lower respiratory tract (e.g., lungs) by inhalation. Compositions for administration by inhalation may be in the form of inhalable powder compositions or liquid or powder sprays and may be administered in standard form using powder inhalation devices or aerosol dispensing devices. Such devices are well known. For administration by inhalation, powdered formulations typically include the active compound in combination with an inert solid powdered diluent, such as lactose or starch. The inhalable dry powder compositions may be presented in capsules and cartridges of gelatin or similar material or blisters of laminated aluminum foil for use in an inhaler or insufflator. Each capsule or cartridge may typically contain, for example, from about 10mg to about 100g of each active compound. Alternatively, the compositions described herein may be presented without excipients.

The inhalable compositions may be packaged for unit-dose or multi-dose delivery. For example, the composition may be packaged for multiple dose delivery in a manner similar to that described in: GB2242134, U.S. patent nos. 6,632,666, 5,860,419, 5,873,360 and 5,590,645 (all describe "Diskus" devices); or GB2i78965, GB2129691, GB2169265, U.S. patent nos. 4,778,054, 4,811,731 and 5,035,237 (which illustrate "Diskhaler" devices); or EP 69715 ("Turbuhaler" device) or GB 2064336 and us 4,353,656 ("Rotahaler" device).

Spray compositions for delivery to the lung via an inhalation surface may be formulated as aqueous solutions or suspensions or as aerosols delivered from pressurised packs, such as Metered Dose Inhalers (MDI), using a suitable liquefied propellant, comprising hydrofluoroalkanes, such as dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane and especially 1,1,1, 2-tetrafluoroethane, 1,1,1,2,3,3, 3-heptafluoro-n-propane and mixtures thereof. Aerosol compositions suitable for inhalation may be presented in the form of a suspension or solution.

Drugs administered by inhalation typically have a control particle size. The optimum particle size for inhalation into the bronchial system is typically from about 1 μm to about 10 μm, and in some embodiments, from about 2 μm to about 5 μm. Particles having a particle size greater than about 20 μm are generally too large to reach the smaller respiratory tract upon inhalation. To achieve these particle sizes, the particles of the active ingredient may be subjected to a particle size reduction process, such as micron sizing. The desired particle size fraction can be separated by air classification or sieving. Preferably, the particles will be crystalline.

Intranasal sprays may be formulated with aqueous or non-aqueous vehicles with the addition of agents such as thickeners, buffer salts or pH adjusting acids or bases, isotonic adjusting agents or antioxidants.

Solutions for inhalation by nebulization can be formulated using aqueous vehicles with the addition of agents such as acids or bases, buffer salts, isotonic adjusting agents or antimicrobial agents. It may be sterilized by filtration or heating in an autoclave, or presented as a non-sterile product. The atomizer supplies the aerosol in the form of a mist generated from the aqueous formulation.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be formulated with supplemental active ingredients.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein are administered from a dry powder inhaler.

In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein are prepared byThe aerosol dispensing device optionally incorporating e.g. aThe suction chamber of the suction chamber.

The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and/or vegetable oils. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the effects of microorganisms in the compositions described herein can be achieved by the addition of antibacterial and antifungal agents, such as parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, sorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, it is preferred to include isotonic agents, for example sugars or sodium chloride. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by the use in the compositions of agents delaying absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be within a matrix that controls the release of the composition. In some embodiments, the matrix may comprise: lipids, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl acetates, polycaprolactones, poly (glycolic acid), poly (lactic acid), polycaprolactones, polylactic acids, polyanhydrides, polylactide-co-glycolides, polyamino acids, polyethylene oxides, acrylic acid-capped polyethylene oxides, polyamides, polyethylene, polyacrylonitrile, polyphosphazenes, poly (orthoesters), Sucrose Acetate Isobutyrate (SAIB), and combinations thereof, as well as other polymers disclosed, for example, in U.S. patent nos. 6,667,371, 6,613,355, 6,596,296, 6,413,536, 5,968,543, 4,079,038, 4,093,709, 4,131,648, 4,138,344, 4,180,646, 4,304,767, 4,946,931, each of which is expressly incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In these embodiments, the matrix provides sustained release of the drug.

The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or diluent may also comprise any solvent, dispersion medium, coating, antibacterial and/or antifungal agent, isotonic and absorption delaying agent, and the like. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in pharmaceutical compositions is contemplated.

The pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be formulated for administration according to conventional techniques. See, e.g., Remington, "The Science and Practice of Pharmacy (20 th edition, 2000). For example, intranasal pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure may be formulated as aerosols (this term includes both liquid and dry powder aerosols). As known to those skilled in the art, aerosols of liquid particles may be generated by any suitable means, such as using a pressure-driven aerosol atomizer or an ultrasonic atomizer. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,501,729. Aerosols of solid particles (e.g., lyophilized, freeze-dried, etc.) may likewise be generated by techniques known in the medical arts using any solid particulate medicament aerosol generator. As another example, a pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure may be formulated in an on-demand soluble form that provides a lyophilized portion of the pharmaceutical composition and a dissolved solution portion of the pharmaceutical composition.

In some embodiments of the invention, the pharmaceutical composition is in the form of an aqueous suspension, which may be prepared from a solution or suspension. For solutions or suspensions, the dosage form may comprise micelles of lipophilic substances, liposomes (phospholipid vesicles/membranes) and/or fatty acids (e.g. palmitic acid). In particular embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is a solution or suspension capable of dissolving in a fluid secreted by the epithelial cell mucosa of the tissue to which the pharmaceutical composition is applied, applied and/or delivered, which desirably enhances absorption.

The pharmaceutical composition may be an aqueous solution, a non-aqueous solution, or a combination of aqueous and non-aqueous solutions.

Suitable aqueous solutions include (but are not limited to): hydrogels, aqueous suspensions, aqueous microsphere dispersions, aqueous liposome dispersions, aqueous micelles of liposomes, aqueous microemulsions and any combination of the foregoing or any other aqueous solution that is soluble in the fluids secreted by the nasal mucosa. Exemplary non-aqueous solutions include (but are not limited to): non-aqueous gels, non-aqueous suspensions, non-aqueous microsphere dispersions, non-aqueous liposome dispersions, non-aqueous emulsions, non-aqueous microemulsions and any combination of the foregoing or any other non-aqueous solution that is soluble or miscible in the fluid secreted by the mucosa.

Examples of powder formulations include, but are not limited to: pure powder mixtures, micronized powders, freeze-dried powders, lyophilized powders, powder microspheres, coated powder microspheres, liposome dispersions, and any combination of the foregoing. The powder microspheres may be formed from a variety of polysaccharides and celluloses, including, but not limited to, starch, methylcellulose, xanthan gum, carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, carbomer, polyvinyl alcohol alginate, acacia, polyglucose, and any combination thereof.

In particular embodiments, the composition is one that is at least partially or even largely (e.g., at least 80%, 90%, 95%, or more) soluble in fluids secreted by the mucosa so as to facilitate absorption. Alternatively or additionally, the composition may be formulated with: carriers and/or other substances that facilitate dissolution of the agent into the secretions include, but are not limited to, fatty acids (e.g., palmitic acid), gangliosides (e.g., GM-1), phospholipids (e.g., phosphatidylserine), and emulsifiers (e.g., polysorbate 80).

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that for intranasal administration or delivery, nasal secretions can alter the pH of the administered dose as the pH range in the nasal cavity can be as broad as 5 to 8, since the volume of pharmaceutical composition administered is generally small. Such changes may affect the concentration of the non-ionized drug available for absorption. Thus, in representative embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises a buffering agent to maintain or adjust pH in situ. Typical buffers include, but are not limited to, ascorbate, acetate, citrate, gluten, carbonate, and phosphate buffers.

In embodiments of the invention, the pH of the pharmaceutical composition is selected such that the internal environment of the mucosal tissue is acidic to neutral after administration, which (1) can provide the active compound in non-dissociated form for absorption, (2) prevents growth of pathogenic bacteria more likely to be present in an alkaline environment, and (3) reduces the likelihood of mucosal irritation.

For liquid and powder sprays or aerosols, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated to have any suitable and desired particle size or droplet size. In illustrative embodiments, the majority and/or average particle size of the particles or droplets ranges from equal to or greater than about 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 15, or 20 microns and/or equal to or less than about 25, 30, 40, 45, 50, 60, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 400, or 425 microns (including all combinations of the foregoing). Representative examples of suitable ranges for the majority and/or average particle size or droplet size include, but are not limited to, about 5 to 100 microns, about 10 to 60 microns, about 175 to 325 microns, and about 220 to 300 microns, which facilitate deposition of a safe and effective amount of the active compound, for example, in the nasal cavity (e.g., in the upper one-third of the nasal cavity, the upper nasal passage, the olfactory region, and/or the sinus region leading to the olfactory nerve pathway). Generally, particles or droplets smaller than about 5 microns will deposit in the trachea or even the lungs, while particles or droplets of about 50 microns or larger generally do not reach the nasal cavity and deposit on the anterior portion of the nose.

International patent publication WO 2005/023335(Kurve Technology, Inc.) describes particles and droplets having a diameter size suitable for practicing representative embodiments of the present disclosure. In particular embodiments, the particles or droplets have an average diameter of about 5 to 30 microns, about 10 to 20 microns, about 10 to 17 microns, about 10 to 15 microns, about 12 to 17 microns, about 10 to 15 microns, or about 10 to 12 microns. The particles may be "substantially" of an average diameter or size as described herein, i.e., at least about 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 95% or more of the particles have the indicated diameter or size range.

The pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be delivered in the form of a nebulized or nebulized liquid having a droplet size as described above.

According to particular embodiments of the present disclosure that include intranasal delivery methods, it may be desirable to prolong the residence time of the pharmaceutical composition in the nasal cavity (e.g., in the upper third of the nasal cavity, the upper nasal passage, the olfactory region, and/or the sinus region), e.g., to enhance absorption. Thus, the pharmaceutical composition may optionally be formulated with: bioadhesive polymers, gums (e.g. xanthan gum), polyglucose (e.g. highly purified cationic polysaccharides), pectin (or any carbohydrate that thickens or emulsifies like a gel when applied to the nasal mucosa), microspheres (e.g. starch, albumin, polydextrose, cyclodextrin), gelatin, liposomes, carbomers, polyvinyl alcohol, alginates, acacia, polyglucose and/or cellulose (e.g. methyl or propyl cellulose; hydroxy or carboxy cellulose; carboxymethyl or hydroxypropyl cellulose), which are agents that increase the residence time in the nasal cavity. As another approach, increasing the viscosity of the formulation may also provide a means of prolonging contact of the agent with the nasal epithelial cells. The pharmaceutical composition may be formulated as a nasal emulsion, ointment or gel, which provides the advantage of topical administration due to its viscosity.

Moist and highly vascularized membranes can contribute to rapid absorption; thus, the pharmaceutical composition may optionally comprise a humectant, especially in the case of gel-based compositions, to ensure sufficient intranasal moisture content. Examples of suitable humectants include, but are not limited to, glycerol (glycerin/glycerol), mineral oil, vegetable oil, membrane regulators, soothing agents, and/or sugar alcohols (e.g., xylitol, sorbitol; and/or mannitol). The concentration of the humectant in the pharmaceutical composition will vary depending on the agent and formulation selected.

The pharmaceutical composition may also optionally comprise absorption enhancers, such as agents that inhibit enzyme activity, reduce viscosity or elasticity of mucus, reduce mucociliary clearance effects, open tight junctions, and/or solubilize the active compound. Chemical enhancers are known in the art and include chelating agents (e.g., EDTA), fatty acids, cholates, surfactants, and/or preservatives. Enhancers for permeation may be particularly useful when formulating compounds that exhibit poor membrane permeability, lack lipophilicity, and/or are degraded by aminopeptidases. The concentration of the absorption enhancer in the pharmaceutical composition will vary depending on the agent selected and the formulation.

Preservatives may optionally be added to the pharmaceutical composition in order to prolong shelf life. Suitable preservatives include, but are not limited to, benzyl alcohol, parabens, thimerosal, chlorobutanol, and benzalkonium chloride, and combinations of the foregoing. The concentration of the preservative will vary depending on the preservative used, the compound formulated, the formulation, and the like. In representative embodiments, the preservative is present in an amount of about 2% by weight or less.

The pharmaceutical compositions described herein may optionally contain an odorant, for example as described in EP 0504263B 1, to provide a sensation of odor in order to facilitate inhalation of the composition, thereby facilitating delivery to the olfactory region and/or triggering transmission by olfactory neurons.

As another option, the composition may include a flavoring agent, for example, to enhance taste and/or individual acceptability of the composition.

Porous particles for pulmonary administration

In some embodiments, the particles are porous such that they have a suitable density to avoid deposition in the back of the throat when administered via an inhaler. The combination of relatively large particle size and relatively low density avoids phagocytosis in the lung, provides for properly targeted delivery, avoids systemic delivery of components and provides for high concentrations of components within the lung.

Representative methods for preparing such particles and for delivering such particles are described in the following: for example, U.S. patent No. 7,384,649 entitled "particle compositions for pulmonary delivery"; U.S. patent No. 7,182,961 entitled "particle compositions for pulmonary delivery"; U.S. patent No. 7,146,978 entitled "Inhalation device and method"; U.S. patent No. 7,048,908 entitled "Particles for inhalation having sustained release properties"; U.S. patent No. 6,956,021 entitled "Stable spray-dried protein formulations"; U.S. patent No. 6,766,799 entitled "Inhalation device"; and U.S. patent No. 6,732,732 entitled Inhalation device and method.

Additional patents disclosing such particles include: U.S. patent No. 7,279,182 entitled "Formulation for spray-drying porous large particles"; U.S. Pat. No. 7,252,840 entitled "formation of porous particles using pure amino acids (Use of simple amino acids to form porous particles)"; U.S. patent No. 7,032,593 entitled "Inhalation device and method"; U.S. patent No. 7,008,644 entitled "Method and apparatus for producing dried particles"; U.S. Pat. No. 6,848,197 entitled "Control of Process humidity to Process Large, porous particles"; and U.S. patent No. 6,749,835 entitled "Formulation for spray-drying porous large particles".

U.S. patent No. 7,678,364, entitled "Particles for inhalation having sustained release properties," discloses a method for delivering Particles to the pulmonary system comprising: administering to the respiratory tract of a patient in need of treatment, prevention, or diagnosis a safe and effective amount of a dry powder comprising: a) a polyvalent metal cation complexed with a therapeutic, prophylactic or diagnostic agent, b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and c) a polyvalent metal cation-containing component, wherein the dry powder is spray-dried and has a total amount of polyvalent metal cations of about 10% w/w or more, about 0.4g/cm, based on the total weight of the medicament3Or less, a tap density of about 5 microns to about 30 microns, a median geometric diameter, and an aerodynamic diameter of about 1 to about 5 microns.

The amount of a compound described herein or salt thereof present in the particles can range from about 0.1 wt% to about 95 wt%, although in some cases, can even be as high as 100%. For example, from about 1 to about 50%, such as from about 5 to about 30%. Particles in which the drug is distributed throughout the particle may be preferred.

In some embodiments, the particles comprise a surfactant other than the phospholipids described above. As used herein, the term "surfactant" refers to any agent that preferentially absorbs to the interface between two immiscible phases (e.g., the interface between water and an organic polymer solution, the water/air interface, or the organic solvent/air interface). Surfactants generally have a hydrophilic portion and a lipophilic portion such that, upon absorption into the particle, they tend to bring the portions to an external environment that does not attract particles like the coating, thus reducing particle aggregation. Surfactants may also facilitate the absorption of therapeutic or diagnostic agents and increase the bioavailability of the agents.

Suitable surfactants that may be used in the manufacture of the particles described herein include (but are not limited to): cetyl alcohol; fatty alcohols, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG); polyoxyethylene-9-lauryl ether; surface active fatty acids, such as palmitic acid or oleic acid; glycocholate; surface active peptides (surfactin); poloxamers (poloxamers); sorbitan fatty acid esters, such as sorbitan trioleate (Span 85);80; and tyloxapol (tyloxapol).

The surfactant may be present in the particles in an amount in the range of about 0 to about 5 weight percent. Preferably, it may be present in the particles in an amount in the range of about 0.1 to about 1.0 wt%.

Having a density of less than about 0.4g/cm3Particles of tap density of at least about 5 μm, median diameter of about 1 μm to about 5 μm, or aerodynamic diameter of about 1 μm to about 3 μm are more capable of avoiding inertial and gravitational deposition in the oropharyngeal region and are targeted to the respiratory tract or deep lung. The use of larger, more porous particles is advantageous because it enables more efficient aerosolization than smaller, denser aerosol particles (such as those currently used for inhalation therapy).

Liposome delivery

The compositions described herein are preferably delivered to the lung so as to provide the compound at the site of actual or potential influenza infection. This can be achieved by pulmonary delivery via a metered dose inhaler or other pulmonary delivery device, and also by passing the particles into the microvascular bed surrounding the alveoli in the lung.

Nanocarriers comprising smaller unilamellar vesicles (such as liposomes) exhibit several advantages over other conventional methods for drug delivery to the lung, including prolonged drug release and cell-specific targeted drug delivery. Nanoscale drug carriers may also be advantageous for delivery of drugs that are poorly water soluble, and some of the compounds described herein are poorly water soluble. Additional advantages include its ability to provide controlled release, protection from metabolism and degradation, reduced drug toxicity and targeting ability.

Liposomes (preferably unilamellar vesicles) have a size of less than 200nm as measured by dynamic light scattering and are preferably characterized by comprising a chemically pure synthetic phospholipid composition, most preferably having an aliphatic side chain of at least 16 carbons in length, and containing one or more of the compounds described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof sufficient to deliver (i.e., target) an amount of its compound preferably to the microvascular bed surrounding the alveoli. The vesicle diameter can be measured, for example, by dynamic light scattering using a helium-neon 100mW NEC gas laser and a Malvern K7027 correlator, ideally producing at least two or three measurements at a time for each size determination.

The expression "chemically pure phospholipids" is intended to define phospholipids substantially free of harmful decontaminating moieties and impurities causing the polymerization of Smaller Unilamellar Vesicles (SUV) formed therefrom and having a purity of more than 97%. Preferably, the liposomes are predominantly about 50 to about 160nm in diameter, substantially neutral in charge, and incorporate phospholipids having side chains of 16 to 18 carbon atoms in length. More preferably, the liposomes are prepared from Distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC) and contain cholesterol as a vesicle stabilizer (most preferably, in an amount of 10% to 50% of the total lipids).

It may also be advantageous for the liposomes to have a melting point above body temperature (i.e., greater than 37 ℃). Thus, it may be advantageous to use pure phospholipids, preferably saturated phospholipids, having a carbon chain length of at least 16 carbons, preferably between 16 and 18 carbons. Distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC) is a preferred phospholipid. Cholesterol helps stabilize the liposomes and is preferably added in an amount sufficient to provide liposome stability. Most preferably, the liposome further comprises a pegylated phospholipid, such as dspeg. The methods involve introducing into the bloodstream of a patient an amount of liposomes that are less than 200nm in size (preferably unilamellar vesicles) and are preferably characterized by comprising a chemically pure synthetic phospholipid, most preferably having an aliphatic side chain of at least 16 carbons in length, and containing a compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof sufficient to deliver (i.e., target) an amount of the compound, preferably to the microvascular bed surrounding the alveoli in the lung.

The compounds described herein may be combined with other anti-influenza agents, also as described herein. Such additional agents may also be present in the liposomes, may be present in different liposomes, or may be co-administered via different routes.

The liposomes comprise one or more of the compounds described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and may optionally comprise other anti-influenza agents. The liposome can be prepared by dissolving phospholipid and cholesterol in a suitable organic solvent such as chloroform and evaporating the solvent to form a lipid film. If an ionophore is used to load the compounds described herein into liposomes, the ionophore may be added to the lipid solution prior to evaporation. The dried lipid film is then rehydrated in an appropriate aqueous phase, such as phosphate buffered saline or other physiologically suitable solution. The water soluble drug or therapeutic agent may be contained in the hydration solution, but if remote loading is desired, a loading agent such as a chelating agent as described above may be added to the hydration solution to be encapsulated within the internal aqueous space of the liposome.

Upon addition of the hydration solution, liposomes of different sizes spontaneously form and encapsulate a portion of the aqueous phase. Thereafter, the liposomes and the aqueous suspension solution are subjected to a shearing force such as extrusion, sonic treatment or treatment via a homogenizer according to the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,753,788; to produce vesicles within a specified size.

The liposomes can then be treated to remove undesirable compounds, such as unencapsulated drugs, from the suspension solution, which can be achieved via processes such as gel chromatography or ultrafiltration.

The use of liposomes in dry powder aerosols for targeted Lung delivery is described, for example, in Willis et al, lungs (Lung), 6.2012, 190(3): 251-262. One advantage is that the phospholipids used to prepare the liposomes are similar to endogenous lung surfactants.

Application method

Depending on the severity of the infection being treated, the compounds and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions described above may be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally, intracisternally, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (as powders, ointments, or drops), buccally, as an oral or nasal spray, to the pulmonary system (e.g., by using an inhaler, such as a Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI)), or the like.

Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active compounds, liquid dosage forms may contain: inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents; co-solvents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1, 3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (in detail, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan; and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions can also contain adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.

For example, injectable preparations, such as sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution, suspension or emulsion in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1, 3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, U.S. P, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, nonvolatile oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed, including synthetic mono-or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids (such as oleic acid) are used in the preparation of injectables.

The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions that can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium at the point of use.

To prolong the effect of the compounds described herein, it is generally desirable to slow the absorption of the compounds from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be achieved by using liquid suspensions of crystalline or amorphous materials with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the compound depends on its rate of dissolution, which in turn may depend on crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a compound for parenteral administration is achieved by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming a microencapsulated matrix of the compound in a biodegradable polymer such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer used, the rate of release of the compound can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly (orthoesters) and poly (anhydrides). Injectable depot formulations can also be prepared by encapsulating the compounds in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are in particular suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the compounds described herein with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.

Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is mixed with: at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate; and/or a) fillers or extenders, such as starch, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid; b) binders such as carboxymethyl cellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sucrose and acacia; c) humectants, such as glycerol; d) disintegrating agents, such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates and sodium carbonate; e) solution retarding agents, such as paraffin; f) absorption promoters, such as quaternary ammonium compounds; g) wetting agents, such as cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay; and i) lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents.

Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft-filled and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose (lactose/milk sugar) and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like. Solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation. It may optionally contain opacifying agents and may also have a composition that releases the active ingredient only or preferably in a certain part of the intestinal tract, or optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft-filled and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose (lactose/milk sugar) and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.

The active compound may also be in microencapsulated form with one or more excipients as described above. Solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings, release-controlling coatings, and other coatings well known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be mixed with at least one inert diluent (e.g., sucrose, lactose or starch). As in general practice, such dosage forms may also include other substances in addition to inert diluents, such as tableting lubricants and other tableting aids, such as magnesium stearate and microcrystalline cellulose. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. It may optionally contain opacifying agents and may also have a composition that releases the active ingredient only or preferably in a certain part of the intestinal tract, or optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes.

Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of the compounds described herein include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants or patches. The active ingredient is admixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any required preservatives or buffers as may be desired. Ophthalmic formulations, ear drops, and eye drops are also contemplated as falling within the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, the present disclosure contemplates the use of transdermal patches, which have the additional advantage of providing controlled delivery of compounds to the body. Such dosage forms may be prepared by dissolving or dispensing the compound in the appropriate medium. Absorption enhancers may also be used to increase the flux of the compound through the skin. The rate can be controlled by providing a rate controlling membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.

The compositions described herein may be administered orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally, or via an implantable reservoir. As used herein, the term "parenteral" includes, but is not limited to, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarticular, intrasynovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intrahepatic, intralesional and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. In particular, the compositions are administered orally, intraperitoneally, or intravenously.

The sterile injectable form of the compositions described herein can be an aqueous or oleaginous suspension. These suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1, 3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, nonvolatile oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono-or diglycerides. Fatty acids (such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives) are suitable for the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically-acceptable oils (such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated versions). These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain a long chain alcohol diluent or dispersant, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or similar dispersing agents commonly used in formulating pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms, including emulsions and suspensions. Other commonly used surfactants (such as Tween, Span, and other emulsifiers) or bioavailability enhancers commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms may also be used for formulation purposes.

The pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be administered orally in any orally acceptable dosage form including, but not limited to, capsules, tablets, aqueous suspensions or solutions. In the case of tablets for oral use, commonly used carriers include, but are not limited to, lactose and corn starch. Lubricating agents, such as magnesium stearate, are also typically added. For oral administration in capsule form, suitable diluents include lactose and dried corn starch. When aqueous for oral use is desired, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening, flavoring or coloring agents may also be added.

Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration. These suppositories can be prepared by mixing the agent with a suitable non-irritating excipient which is solid at room temperature but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include, but are not limited to, cocoa butter, beeswax and polyethylene glycols.

The pharmaceutical compositions described herein may also be administered topically, particularly when the target of treatment comprises topical administration of an easily accessible area or organ, including diseases of the eye, skin or lower intestinal tract. Suitable surface formulations for each of these regions or organs are readily prepared.

Topical administration for the lower intestinal tract may be achieved in the form of rectal suppository formulations (see above) or in the form of suitable enema formulations. Topical transdermal patches may also be used.

For topical administration, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a suitable ointment containing the active ingredient suspended or dissolved in one or more carriers. Carriers for topical administration of the compounds described herein include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum, propylene glycol, polyethylene oxide, polypropylene oxide compounds, emulsifying wax, and water. Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated in a suitable lotion or cream containing the active ingredient suspended or dissolved in one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Suitable carriers include, but are not limited to, mineral oil, sorbitan monostearate, polysorbate 60, cetyl esters wax, cetearyl alcohol, 2-octyldodecanol, benzyl alcohol and water.

For ophthalmic use, the pharmaceutical composition may be formulated as a micronized suspension in isotonic pH adjusted sterile saline, or rather as a solution in isotonic pH adjusted sterile saline, with or without a preservative (such as benzalkonium chloride). Alternatively, for ocular administration, the pharmaceutical composition may be formulated in an ointment such as petrolatum.

The compounds for use in the methods described herein may be formulated in unit dosage form. The term "unit dosage form" refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for the individual undergoing treatment, wherein each unit contains a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, optionally in association with a suitable pharmaceutical carrier. The unit dosage form can be used in a single daily dose or in one of a plurality of daily doses (e.g., about 1 to 4 or more times per day).

In vitro antiviral assays

Influenza antiviral assay:

inhibition of virus-induced cytopathic effect (CPE) and cell viability after replication of influenza A (strain A/PR/8/34, ATCC VR-95) or influenza B (cell culture adapted strain B/Lee/40, ATCC VR-1535) in MDCK cells (female Care canine kidney epithelial cells, ATCC CCL-34) was measured by XTT dye reduction (Appleyard et al, antibiotic chemotherapy (J antibiotic chemotherapy) 1 (suppl 4):49-53,1975 and Shigeta et al, antibiotic and chemotherapy (antibiotic Agents Chemotherapy) 41(7): 1423-; 1427, 1997.). MDCK cells (1X 10. mu.L per well) were inactivated with 10% heat supplemented Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), 2mM L-glutamine, 100U/mL penicillin, 100. mu.g/mL streptomycin, 1mM sodium pyruvate, and 0.1mM NEAA in Dulbecco's Minimum Essential Medium (DMEM) at 100. mu.L per well volume 4Individual cells) were grown as monolayers in 96-well flat-bottom tissue culture plates. On the day of assay setup, cell monolayers were washed three times with DPBS. Viruses were obtained from ATCC and grown in MDCK cells for the production of virus stocks. Test compounds were diluted to assay culture at twice the desired starting concentrationIn medium (DMEM, 2mM L-glutamine, 100U/mL penicillin, 100. mu.g/mL streptomycin, 50ng/mL TPCK treated trypsin, 0.1mM NEAA and 1mM sodium pyruvate), and serially diluted. Test compounds were added in triplicate at a volume of 100 μ l/well for determining efficacy, in duplicate for determining cytotoxicity, and in single per-well concentration for colorimetric evaluation immediately prior to addition of diluted virus. Ribavirin and oseltamivir carboxylate were evaluated simultaneously as control compounds. A pre-titrated aliquot of the virus was taken from the freezer (-80 ℃) and quickly thawed in the biosafety cabinet. The virus was diluted with assay medium such that the amount of virus added to each well in a volume of 100 μ Ι _ was the amount judged to give a 85% to 95% cell kill rate 4 days after infection. Cell control containing medium only, virus infection control containing medium and virus, cytotoxicity control containing medium, each at 37 deg.C and 5% CO 2Four days after incubation, 4 hours at 37 ℃ followed by passage through the platesDye XTT reduction was measured and inhibition of CPE (increased cell viability) was measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm (reference wavelength 650nm) using Softmax Pro 4.6 software. The percent CPE reduction for virus-infected wells and percent cell viability for uninfected drug-control wells were calculated by four-parameter curve fitting analysis using microsoft Excel XLfit 4.

(2) PB2 binding assays homogeneous, high throughput binding/displacement assays were designed for the determination of IC50 for PB2 inhibitors. The principle of the assay reverts to the competitive displacement of fluorescent probes (m7GTP analogs) from their complexes with PB2 by PB2 inhibitors. Briefly, purified PB2 was incubated with fluorescent m7GTP analog and test inhibitors were added to the reaction mixture. The displacement of fluorescent m7GTP was read using a Perkin Elmer Envision. The properties are reported in table B below: +++++: IC50, <5 μ M; ++++: IC50, 5-25. mu.M; +++: IC50, 25-50. mu.M; ++: IC50, 50-100. mu.M; and +: IC50, > 100. mu.M
