PCT designated stageWO2025207435A1Group 5/15 element organic compoundsAntiviralsPurinePhosphoramidate
2'-Fluoro-6'-methylene-carbocyclic adenosine (FMCA, 21) and its phosphoramidate prodrug (FMCAP, 31) have demonstrated potential anti-HBV activity against both adefovir- resistant as well as lamivudine-resistant double (rtL180M / rtM204V) mutant hepatitis B virus (HBV). In addition, in vitro, these molecules have reinstated a significant activity against lamivudine / entecavir triple mutants (L180M+S202G+M204V). This invention is directed to compounds, pharmaceuticals and methods of treating HBV infections, especially including infections caused by resistant and multiple resistant HBV. Pursuant to the present invention, a complete structure-activity relationship (SAR) of 2'-fluoro-6'-methylene-carbocyclic derived nucleos(t)ides has been evaluated and that analysis is presented herein. Pursuant to the present invention, the synthesis and antiviral evaluation of purine and pyrimidine-derived nucleosides have been reported against wild-type and various HBV mutants. Guanosine analog (FMCG, 25) demonstrated an EC50 value of 0.217μM and cytosine analog (FMCC, 41) expressed a potent EC50 value of 0.0025 μM compared to entecavir (EC50 = 0.0029) against wild-type HBV. Additionally, FMCC (41) maintains its antiviral potency against various HBV mutants. Furthermore, chiral pure FMCAP Sp (34) isomer demonstrated an EC50 value of 1.3 nM and was more potent against several HBV mutants than entecavir.
