Abstract
Description
[0001] IMIDAZONAPHTHYRIDINE COMPOUNDS USEFUL FOR ENHANCING INNATE IMMUNE RESPONSES CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION This application claims benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 609,511, filed December 13, 2023, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. FIELD OF THE INVENTION Provided are compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, methods for their preparation, and methods for their use in treating and / or preventing viral infections, and in particular, to certain compounds that can enhance one or more innate immune responses within a subject. BACKGROUND Antiviral drugs can work by interacting with the virus to reduce its pathogenicity or by targeting the host to improve the host's defense against the virus. Most antiviral drugs on the market (e.g., zanamivir for treating influenza, zidovudine for treating HIV, acyclovir for treating HSV, and entecavir for treating HBV) interact directly with the virus to reduce pathogenicity. However, viruses can mutate and, thereby, develop resistance to these types of antiviral drugs. Consequently, antiviral drugs aimed at directly targeting a virus are prone to decreased efficacy over time. As a result, there is an unmet need for an antiviral drug that targets the host rather than the virus directly. Therapeutic agents that bolster existing host immune mechanisms of viral defense, specifically the host innate immune response to infection, hold potential for treatment of multiple infections with a single agent. Interferon (IFN) is one of the cytokines secreted by immune cells, which activates immune cells and acts on various points in the virus life cycle to suppress the growth of viruses. Currently, injectable pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN) is available for general clinical use. A significant number of patients with Peg-IFN have a therapeutic effect regardless of whether they are HBe antigen positive or negative, and various side effects have been reported. To address these issues, WO2013 / 059559 to Glaxo SmithKline, LLC discloses non-nucleic acid, low- molecular-weight, antiviral therapeutics suitable for oral administration. For example, imidazonaphthyridine compound RO8191 and related compounds are reported as IFN mimetic drugs using HCV replicon cells. WO2018043747 to Kyoto University discloses imidazonaphthyridine compounds for treatment of HBV. There is a long-felt and unmet need for new non-nucleic acid, low-molecular-weight, antiviral therapeutics, that are not only suitable for oral administration, but have increased efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic profiles.

The compounds or pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure are administered in therapeutically effective amounts to treat a disease. Alternatively, a therapeutically effective amount of a compound is the quantity required to achieve a desired therapeutic and / or prophylactic effect. The term “treating” as used herein includes any effect, e.g., lessening, reducing, modulating, or eliminating, a viral infection, that results in the improvement of the disease. The compounds of the disclosure may contain one or more chiral centers and, therefore, exist as stereoisomers. The term “stereoisomers” when used herein consist of all enantiomers or diastereomers. These compounds may be designated by the symbols “(+),” “(-),” “R” or “S,” depending on the configuration of substituents around the stereogenic carb n atom, but the skilled artisan will recognize that a structure may denote a chiral center implicitly. The present disclosure encompasses various stereoisomers of these compounds and mixtures thereof. Mixtures of enantiomers or diastereomers may be designated “(±)” in nomenclature, but the skilled artisan will recognize that a structure may denote a chiral center implicitly. The compounds of the disclosure may contain one or more double bonds and, therefore, exist as geometric isomers resulting from the arrangement of substituents around a carbon- carbon double bond. The symbol denotes a bond that may be a single, double or triple bond as described herein. Substituents around a carbon-carbon double bond are designated as being in the “Z” or “E” configuration wherein the terms “Z” and “E” are used in accordance with IUPAC standards. Unless otherwise specified, structures depicting double bonds encompass both the “E” and “Z” isomers. Substituents around a carbon-carbon double bond alternatively can be referred to as “cis” or “trans,” where “cis” represents substituents on the same side of the double bond and “trans” represents substituents on opposite sides of the double bond. Compounds of the disclosure may contain a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring and therefore, exist as geometric isomers resulting from the arrangement of substituents around the ring. The arrangement of substituents around a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring are designated as being in the “Z” or “E” configuration wherein the terms “Z” and “E” are used in accordance with IUPAC standards. Unless otherwise specified, structures depicting carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings encompass both “Z” and “E” isomers. Substituents around a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring may also be referred to as “cis” or “trans”, where the term “cis” represents substituents on the same side of the plane of the ring and the term “trans” represents substituents on opposite sides of the plane of the ring. Mixtures of compounds wherein the substituents are disposed on both the same and opposite sides of plane of the ring are designated “cis / trans.” Individual enantiomers and diastereomers of compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials that contain asymmetric or stereogenic centers, or by preparation of racemic mixtures followed by resolution methods well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. These methods of resolution are exemplified by (1) attachment of a mixture of enantiomers to a chiral auxiliary, separation of the resulting mixture of diastereomers by recrystallization or chromatography and liberation of the optically pure product from the auxiliary, (2) salt formation employing an optically active resolving agent, (3) direct separation of the mixture of optical enantiomers on chiral liquid chromatographic columns or (4) kinetic resolution using stereoselective chemical or enzymatic reagents. Racemic mixtures can also be resolved into their component enantiomers by well-known methods, such as chiral- phase liquid chromatography or crystallizing the compound in a chiral solvent. Stereoselective syntheses, a chemical or enzymatic reaction in which a single reactant forms an unequal mixture of stereoisomers during the creation of a new stereocenter or during the transformation of a pre- existing one, are well known in the art. Stereoselective syntheses encompass both enantiomeric and diastereoselective transformations and may involve the use of chiral auxiliaries. For examples, see Carreira and Kvaerno, Classics in Stereoselective Synthesis, Wiley-VCH: Weinheim, 2009. The compounds disclosed herein can exist in solvated as well as unsolvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like, and it is intended that the disclosure embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms. In one embodiment, the compound is amorphous. In one embodiment, the compound is a single polymorph. In another embodiment, the compound is a mixture of polymorphs. In another embodiment, the compound is in a crystalline form. The disclosure also embraces isotopically labeled compounds of the disclosure which are identical to those recited herein, except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine and chlorine, such as2H,3H,13C,14C,15N,18O,17O,31P,32P,35S,18F, and36Cl, respectively. For example, a compound of the disclosure may have one or more H atom replaced with deuterium. Certain isotopically-labeled disclosed compounds (e.g., those labeled with3H and14C) are useful in compound and / or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e.,3H) and carbon- 14 (i.e.,14C) isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,2H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of the disclosure can generally be prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed in the examples herein by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.

Methods of Use Without being bound by any theory, since the compounds of the present disclosure behave as interferon mimicking agents (IFN mimetic agents), it is believed that may exhibit their antiviral activity through a variety of mechanisms. One such mechanism involves modulating the expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) through the janus kinase / signal transducer and activator (JAK / STAT) pathway, a common target for attack by a variety of viruses (Fleming, 2016, herein incorporated by reference with regard to such background teaching). Like other antiviral agents – the compounds of the present disclosure may also function as protease or polymerase inhibitors, disrupt the viral replication machinery or have general anti-viral activity against viral components. The presence of these mechanisms in a broad group of viruses suggest the compounds disclosed herein may provide therapeutic anti-viral activity against a diverse group of viruses. Thus, one aspect described herein is a method of treating a hepatitis B infection (HBV) in a patient in need thereof is provided, comprising administering to a subject or patient an effective amount of a disclosed compound, and / or administering a first disclosed compound and optionally, an additional, different disclosed compound(s). In another embodiment, a method for treating a hepatitis B infection in a patient in need thereof is provided, comprising administering to a subject or patient a therapeutically effective amount of a disclosed pharmaceutical composition or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a disclosed compound, or two or more disclosed compounds, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. With regard to HBV / hepatitis D (HDV) coinfection or superinfection, HDV encodes HDAg, the HDV protein responsible for HDV RNA replication. HDV infection is facilitated by the interaction of HDAg with HBV viral envelope protein HBsAg, for both entry into the hepatocytes and assembly and release of the HDV virions (Negro, 2014). Thus, because HDV infection is dependent on the presence of an existing HBV infection, strategies for treating HBV / HDV coinfection may focus on targeting HBV alone, HDV alone or both viruses together. Thus, the present disclosure also contemplates a method of treating an HBV or HDV infection, or HBV / HDV coinfection, in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to a subject or patient an effective amount of a disclosed compound, and / or administering a first disclosed compound and optionally, an additional, different disclosed compound(s). In another embodiment, a method for treating an HBV or HDV infection or HBV / HDV coinfection in a patient in need thereof is provided, comprising administering to a subject or patient a therapeutically effective amount of a disclosed pharmaceutical composition or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a disclosed compound, or two or more disclosed compounds, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are preferred. The salt may precipitate from solution and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by evaporation of the solvent. The degree of ionization in the salt may vary from completely ionized to almost non-ionized. Lists of suitable salts are found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences. 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, p.1418, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference only with regards to the lists of suitable salts. In general, the chemical entities provided will be administered in a therapeutically effective amount by any of the accepted modes of administration for agents that serve similar utilities. The actual amount of the chemical entity, i.e., the active ingredient, will depend upon numerous factors such as the severity of the disease to be treated, the age and relative health of the subject, the potency of the chemical entity used, the route and form of administration, and other factors. The drug can be administered more than once a day, such as once or twice or three times a day. Therapeutically effective amounts of the chemical entities described herein may range from approximately 0.01 to 200 mg per kilogram body weight of the recipient per day; such as about 0.01-100 mg / kg / day, for example, from about 0.1 to 50 mg / kg / day. Thus, for administration to a 70 kg person, the dosage range may be about 7-3500 mg per day. In addition, the amount of the chemical entity in a composition can vary within the full range employed by those skilled in the art. Typically, the composition will contain, on a weight percent (wt%) basis, from about 0.01-99.99 wt% of at least one chemical entity described herein based on the total composition, with the balance being one or more suitable pharmaceutical excipients. In certain embodiments, the at least one chemical entity described herein is present at a level of about 1-80 wt%. In certain embodiments, the chemical entities will be administered as pharmaceutical compositions by any one of the following routes: oral, systemic (e.g., transdermal, intranasal or by suppository), sublingually, subcutaneously, topically, intrapulmonarilly, vaginally, rectally, or intraocularly, or parenteral (e.g., intramuscular, intravenous or subcutaneous) administration. In other embodiments, oral administration with a convenient daily dosage regimen that can be adjusted according to the degree of disorder or disease may be used. The choice of administration route and / or formulation depends on various factors such as the mode of drug administration and bioavailability of the drug substance. In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention may be administered topically to the diseased area on the skin or mucous membranes of a subject. In another embodiment, the compounds of the present invention may be administered topically to the diseased area on the skin or mucous membranes of a subject so that the topical administration allows for the compound to penetrate into the subject's skin layer keratinocyte cells. In some embodiments, the compositions are comprised of, in general, at least one chemical entity described herein in combination with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. Acceptable excipients are non-toxic, aid administration, and do not adversely affect the therapeutic benefit of at least one chemical entity described herein. Such excipient may be any solid, liquid, semi-solid or, in the case of an aerosol composition, gaseous excipient that is generally available to one of skill in the art. Solid pharmaceutical excipients include starch, cellulose, talc, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, magnesium stearate, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, sodium chloride, dried skim milk and the like. Liquid and semisolid excipients may be selected from glycerol, propylene glycol, water, ethanol and various oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, e.g., peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil, etc. Liquid carriers, for injectable solutions, include water, saline, aqueous dextrose, and glycols. Pharmaceutical compositions or formulations include solid, semi-solid, liquid and aerosol dosage forms, such as, e.g., tablets, capsules, powders, liquids, suspensions, suppositories, aerosols or the like. The chemical entities can also be administered in sustained or controlled release dosage forms, including depot injections, osmotic pumps, pills, transdermal (including electrotransport) patches, and the like, for prolonged and / or timed, pulsed administration at a predetermined rate. In certain embodiments, the compositions are provided in unit dosage forms suitable for single administration of a precise dose. The chemical entities described herein can be administered either alone or more typically in combination with a conventional pharmaceutical carrier, excipient or the like (e.g., mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharine, talcum, cellulose, sodium crosscarmellose, glucose, gelatin, sucrose, magnesium carbonate, and the like). If desired, the pharmaceutical composition can also contain minor amounts of nontoxic auxiliary substances such as wetting agents, emulsifying agents, solubilizing agents, pH buffering agents and the like (e.g., sodium acetate, sodium citrate, cyclodextrine derivatives, sorbitan monolaurate, triethanolamine acetate, triethanolamine oleate, and the like). Generally, depending on the intended mode of administration, the pharmaceutical composition will contain about 0.005% to 95%; in certain embodiments, about 0.5% to 50% by weight of a chemical entity. Actual methods of preparing such dosage forms are known, or will be apparent, to those skilled in this art; for example, see Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pennsylvania. In certain embodiments, the compositions will take the form of a pill or tablet and thus the composition will contain, along with the active ingredient, a diluent such as lactose, sucrose, dicalcium phosphate, or the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or the like; and a binder such as starch, gum acacia, polyvinylpyrrolidine, gelatin, cellulose, cellulose derivatives or the like. In another solid dosage form, a powder, marume, solution or suspension (e.g., in propylene carbonate, vegetable oils or triglycerides) is encapsulated in a gelatin capsule. Liquid pharmaceutically administrable compositions can, for example, be prepared by dissolving, dispersing, etc. at least one chemical entity and optional pharmaceutical adjuvants in a carrier (e.g., water, saline, aqueous dextrose, glycerol, glycols, ethanol or the like) to form a solution or suspension. Injectables can be prepared in conventional forms, either as liquid solutions or suspensions, as emulsions, or in solid forms suitable for dissolution or suspension in liquid prior to injection. The percentage of chemical entities contained in such parenteral compositions is highly dependent on the specific nature thereof, as well as the activity of the chemical entities and the needs of the subject. However, percentages of active ingredient of 0.01% to 10% in solution are employable and will be higher if the composition is a solid which will be subsequently diluted to the above percentages. In certain embodiments, the composition will comprise from about 0.2 to 2% of the active agent in solution. In one embodiment, the compounds of the present invention can be formulated into dermatological topical delivery formulations. Pharmaceutical formulations adapted for topical administration may be formulated as ointments, creams, suspensions, lotions, powders, solutions, pastes, gels, sprays, aerosols or oils. For treatments of external tissues, such as skin, the formulations may be applied as a topical ointment or cream. When formulated in an ointment, the active ingredient may be employed with either a paraffinic or a water-miscible ointment base. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be formulated in a cream with an oil- in-water cream base or a water-in-oil base. In addition to the compounds of the present invention, the compositions herein may additionally include an organic solvent, an adhesive, plasticizer, and a water swellable polymer. The organic solvent may be one or more of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), N,N'- dimethylacetamide (DMA), N',N'-dimethylformamide (DMF), dioxane, tetraglycol, or the like. Appropriate adhesives for use in the invention include, but are not limited to, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene oxides, polyethylene glycols of molecular weight 3350 and higher, hydroxypropylcellulose, and povidone. Polyvinyl alcohol is preferred. The adhesive is typically present in an amount from about 10 to 75% by weight, preferably about 45-55% by weight, and most preferably about 50% by weight of the composition. The compositions herein may optionally also include a plasticizer. Suitable plasticizers are typically high-boiling, water-soluble organic compounds containing hydroxyl, amide, or amino groups. Such plasticizers include, but are not limited to, soy, egg or synthetic lecithin, ethylene glycol, tetraethylene, hexamethylene, nonaethylene glycol, formamide, ethanolamine salts, water, glycerin, or combinations thereof. Such plasticizers are well known in the art. A plasticizer is therefore preferably included in the formulation to provide these benefits. The plasticizer is typically present in the composition in an amount ranging from about 0.4-2.0% by weight, with about 1-2% by weight being preferred, and about 0.9% by weight being most preferred. The composition may also include a water swellable polymer which acts as an extender and serves to thicken the composition. Such water swellable polymers are well known in the art and include, but are not limited to, microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, methyl cellulose, methyl ethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, gums, carboxyvinyl polymer, hydroxyethyl cellulose, cornstarch, casein, urea, dextrin, and fume silica. The filler is typically present in an amount from about 1-10% by weight, preferably about 3-6% by weight, with about 4.67% by weight being most preferred. The present invention is further directed to a method of treating warts by applying the pharmaceutical composition(s) topically to the location on the skin where the warts are present. The method of the invention comprises topically applying to a wart on an individual a therapeutically effective amount of the compositions of the invention. The composition may be applied using an applicator, for example, a swab, sponge, finger cot or a toothpick. While some compositions of this invention can be adhesive in and of themselves, in another embodiment of the invention, the method further comprises occluding the wart with an occluding agent to aid the composition's absorption into the wart, protect the composition from rubbing off, and also further keratolytic activity. Many occluding agents are known to those skilled in the art. These include, but are not limited to, bandages, plastic wrap, and adhesive tape, for example, duct tape. The compositions of the invention may further include a variety of substances, including suitable stabilizers, buffers, thickeners, lubricants, wetting, and dissolving agents as well as colorings, moisturizers, preservatives, and fragrances. These minors are added in small amounts and are conventionally known in pharmaceutical formulation work to enhance elegance. Such minors typically comprise less than about 1% of the overall composition. In still other embodiments, the compounds of the present invention can be formulated into dermatological delivery formulations, such as a stick-gel, which can be used to target the delivery of the compound directly onto the site of action. For example, if the compounds of the present invention are intended to be used as a treatment for papillomavirus induced warts, then the compound(s) may be formulated into a stick-gel that can apply the compounds in a formulation directly to the surface of the wart. In still other embodiments, the stick-gel application formulation can be based on a PSAs (Pressure Sensitive Adhesives) concept. PSAs, unlike structural adhesives or sealants, differ in that the adhesive-substrate interface does not resist separation when the adhesive is peeled off. In other words, PSAs are intended to show adhesive failure, especially when skin is the substrate, whereas this would be a major fatal flaw for cement and glue. Developing a suitable PSA-GeI for a targeted adherend to treat a skin common wart, takes the following two critical adhesive attributes into consideration: surface activity and visco-elastic properties. As such, these attributes are associated to the three steps of adhesion process. The first step involves contact between the adhesive and the surface. This dynamic step is known as "bonding or sticking" and is dependent on wetting behavior and quick spreadability of the adhesive composition. The second step "adhering" relies on the capacity of the adhesive to remain in contact with surface. This is important for treating warts where the active should be adherent to the warts long enough to exert its intended action. Flowability and creep resistance are the physical characteristics that contribute to maintain the established bond and stick. During this more static phase, the adhesion will build up if the adhesive-to-surface interactions increase (e.g., interpenetration). The third step "debonding" is also dynamic. It consists in separating the adhesive-stick from the surface by means of a peel release process. The peel adhesion property of the adhesive composition will direct the force required to break the bond in an adhesive failure mode. The formulation composition to achieve all these attributes can comprise suitable hydrophilic polymers incorporated into a gel matrix containing the active drug in solution. Large organic macromolecules that are either natural or synthetic hydrophilic polymers (e.g., hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, etc.) on the other hand, exist as randomly coiled chains that entangle with each other to form the gel structure. The nature of the solvent determines whether the gel is a hydrogel (water based) or an organogel (nonaqueous solvent). For example, gels prepared with hydroxyethyl cellulose containing water are hydrogels, whereas gels prepared with polyethylene-containing mineral oil (PIastibase) are organogels. Another class of gels, called thermally sensitive gels, are prepared from poloxamers. In addition to hydrophilic polymers, silicones are versatile materials permitting the design of various transdermal and topical drug delivery forms. The substantivity to skin can be adjusted from hours to one week in duration. Moreover, the hydrophobic, highly open, and mobile dimethylsiloxane network allows for the preparation of semi-occlusive matrices, permeable to many molecules including the compound(s) of the present invention. In other embodiments of the present invention, there is provided sustained release of certain compounds described herein from silicone pressure sensitive adhesive matrices. This capability can also be expanded to other types of silicone matrices including fillerless or reinforced elastomers. As such, modulation of the release of certain compounds of the present invention could enhance drug targeting and therapeutic effectiveness. The silicone formulations could include a loosely cross-linked fillerless elastomer dispersion (Dow Corning® 9040 Silicone Elastomer Blend), a fully cross-linked fillerless elastomer (Dow Corning® 7-9800 A&B Soft Skin Adhesive), a rubber film-forming dispersion (Dow Corning® 7-5300 Film-In-Place Coating), and / or a visco-elastic system (Dow Corning® PSA 7-4502 and 7-4602 pressure sensitive adhesive. In certain embodiments, the compound(s) of the present invention could be formulated in the different silicone and polymer matrices along with the following excipients: surfactants, citric-sodium bicarbonates, and / or carbomer 974. Pharmaceutical compositions of the chemical entities described herein may also be administered to the respiratory tract as an aerosol or solution for a nebulizer, or as a microfine powder for insufflation, alone or in combination with an inert carrier such as lactose. In such a case, the particles of the pharmaceutical composition have diameters of less than 50 microns, in certain embodiments, less than 10 microns. For delivery via inhalation the chemical entity can be formulated as liquid solution, suspensions, aerosol propellants or dry powder and loaded into a suitable dispenser for administration. There are several types of pharmaceutical inhalation devices-nebulizer inhalers, metered dose inhalers (MDI) and dry powder inhalers (DPI). Nebulizer devices produce a stream of high velocity air that causes the therapeutic agents (which are formulated in a liquid form) to spray as a mist that is carried into the patient's respiratory tract. MDIs typically are formulation packaged with a compressed gas. Upon actuation, the device discharges a measured amount of therapeutic agent by compressed gas, thus affording a reliable method of administering a set amount of agent. DPI dispenses therapeutic agents in the form of a free- flowing powder that can be dispersed in the patient's inspiratory air stream during breathing by the device. To achieve a free-flowing powder, the therapeutic agent is formulated with an excipient such as lactose. A measured amount of the therapeutic agent is stored in a capsule form and is dispensed with each actuation. Likewise, compressed gases may be used to disperse a chemical entity described herein in aerosol form. Inert gases suitable for this purpose are nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc. Other suitable pharmaceutical excipients and their formulations are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, edited by E. W. Martin (Mack Publishing Company, 18th ed., 1990). Recently, pharmaceutical compositions have been developed for drugs that show poor bioavailability based upon the principle that bioavailability can be increased by increasing the surface area, i.e., decreasing particle size. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,107,288 describes a pharmaceutical formulation having particles in the size range from 10 to 1,000 nm in which the active material is supported on a cross-linked matrix of macromolecules. U.S. Patent No. 5,145,684 describes the production of a pharmaceutical formulation in which the drug substance is pulverized to nanoparticles (average particle size of 400 nm) in the presence of a surface modifier and then dispersed in a liquid medium to give a pharmaceutical formulation that exhibits remarkably high bioavailability. V. Examples The compounds described herein can be prepared in a number of ways based on the teachings contained herein and synthetic procedures known in the art. In the description of the synthetic methods described below, it is to be understood that all proposed reaction conditions, including choice of solvent, reaction atmosphere, reaction temperature, duration of the experiment and workup procedures, can be chosen to be the conditions standard for that reaction, unless otherwise indicated. It is understood by one skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on various portions of the molecule should be compatible with the reagents and reactions proposed.

ISRE reporter was used to measure IFNα pathway induction. Upon IFNα stimulation, pospho-STAT1 and phosphor-STAT2 form a complex with IRF9, named as ISGF3, which translocates to the nucleus and activates the transcription of interferon inducible genes (ISGs) through binding to ISRE in the promoter region of ISGs. The cells were culture in MEM medium (Corning) supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% non- essential amino acids, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1% Penicillin / Streptomycin plus 400 µg / ml of Geneticin. Sub-confluent culture is passaged and split twice a week, not exceeding 30 passages. Cells are detached using 0.05% Trypsin / 0.53mM EDTA solution (Corning). For testing the compound effect on IFNα pathway, HEK293 ISRE reporter cells were seeded in 96-well plate at density of 50,000 cells / well 24 hours before treatment in a black clear bottom plate (Corning). Next day, the cells were treated with compounds in a three-fold serial dilution. The final DMSO concentration in each well is normalized to 0.5%. After 24-hour incubation, the activity of ISRE induction was measured using One-Glo luciferase substrate (Promega) on a Tecan Infinite M1000 Pro plate reader. The fold of induction was calculated by the activity of compound treated cells relative to DMSO treated cells. Cell-based HCV replicon assay HCV 1b replicon (NanoLuc luciferase) cell line was generated in Huh7-Lunet cells. HCV replicon cells were cultured in DMEM medium (Cytiva) supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin / Streptomycin plus 250 µg / ml of Geneticin. Sub-confluent culture of HCV replicon is passaged and split twice a week, not exceeding 40 passages. Cells are detached using 0.25% Trypsin / 2.21 mM EDTA solution (Corning). For testing the antiviral activity of compounds, HCV 1b replicon cells were seeded in DMEM medium supplemented with 5% FBS and 1% % Penicillin / Streptomycin at a density of 5,000 cells / well in a black clear bottom half-well 96-well plate (Corning), following by the addition of compounds in a three-fold serial dilution. The final DMSO concentration in each well is normalized to 1%. After 48-hour incubation, the luciferase activity was measured using Nano- Glo luciferase substrate (Promega) on a Tecan Infinite M1000 Pro plate reader. The antiviral activity of compound was calculated from the percentage of luciferase signals relative to DMSO treated cells. Table 10 provides assay data for exemplified compounds of the invention.
