Description

1H-PYRROL-1-YL AND 1H-INDOL-1-YL ARYL SULPHONES, PROCESSES FOR THEIR PREPARAΗON AND USE FOR THE THERAPY OF HIV -1 INFECTIONS.
TECHNICAL HELD
This invention relates to new 1H-Pyrrol-1-yl and 1H-Indol-1-yl Aryl Sulphones that may be usefull in the medical therapy of retrovirus infections and in particular of H3V-1 infections.
BACKGROUND ART
Viral infections represent health problems whose solution depends on the development of vaccines and/or selective antiviral drags, i.e. drags that inhibit the multiplication of viruses without interfering with the growth of normal cells.
Among viral infections, the AIDS pandemic has rised widespread concern and, following the identification of human retroviruses as its causative agents, several targets susceptible of selective inhibition have been identified in the multiplication cycle of human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV). One of these targets is the reverse transcriptase (RT), a virus-coded enzyme that can be inhibited by two different groups of compounds. The first group consists of nucleoside analogues such as 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT), 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (ddl), 2',3'-dideoxycytidine (ddC), 2',3'-didehydro- 2'.3'-dideoxythymidine (D4T) which, upon activation by cellular kinases, compete with natural substrates and efficiently inhibit the reverse transcription of both HIV-1 and HIV-2. Compounds of this group have been described by Mitsuya et al., PNAS 82, 7096-7100, 1985; Yarchoan et al, Science 245, 412-415, 1989; Mitsuya et al, PNAS 83, 1911-1915, 1986; Lin. et al., Biochem.Pharmacol.36, 2713-2718, 1987.
The second group comprises non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTI) such as 1-[(2- hydroxy-ethoxy) methyl]-6-phenylthio)thymine (HEPT), tetrahydroimidazo-[4,5,1- jk]-[1-4]-benzodiazepine-2(lH)-one and thione (TTBO), 6,11-dihydro-11- cyclopropyl-4-methyldipyrido-[2-3-b:2',3'-e]-[1,4]-diazepin-6-one (neviparine), bis-heteroaryl-piperazine (BΗAP), which do not need activation by cellular enzymes, do not compete for the dNTP substrate site and specifically inhibit the multiplication of ΗTV-1 but neither of HIV-2 nor of other retro, RNA or DNA viruses. Compounds of this group have been described by Miyasaka et al, J. Med. Chem. 32, 2507-2509. 1989; Pauwels et al, Nature 343, 470-474, 1990; Merluzzi et al, Science, 250, 1411-1413,
1990; Romero et al, PNAS, 88, 8806-8810, 1991.
The development of toxicity, which is a major problem with the nucleoside analogues, and the emergence of resistant mutants, which is of major concern with the NNRTI, are the most significant clinical limits of the above RT inhibitors. For this reason, the search for new antiviral compounds and the development of suitable therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing toxicity and preventing drug resistance is still a priority in the fight against AIDS.

• efficacy in suppressing the HIV-1 infection in long-term cultures.
Compounds were solubilized in DMSO at an initial concentration of 100 mM and then were serially diluted in RPMI 1640.
The following cell lines were used in cytotoxicity and antiviral assays: C8166 and MT- 4. human CD4+ T-cell lines purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). Cells were grown in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FCS, 100 units/mL penicillin and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. The cultures were incubated at 37 ºC in a humidified, 5% CO2 atmosphere. The absence of mycoplasma contamination was checked periodically by the Hoechst staining method.
Human immunodeficiency viruses type-1 (HTV-1, IIIB strain) and type 2 (HIV-2, CBL-20 and ROD strains) were obtained from the supernatant of persistently infected
H9/IIIB and CEM cells, respectively. Additional laboratory strains (MN, RF and 105/F, the latter an AZT-resistant strain) and a clinical isolate (CAMAS) were used. The HIV stock solutions were titrated in C8166 cells and kept at -80ºC until use.
Anti-HIV activity, spectrum and mode of action.
The activity of compounds against the HIV-1 multiplication in acutely infected cells was based on inhibition of the virus-induced cytopathogenicity (CPE) in MT-4 cells. Brielfly, 50 μL of culture medium additioned of 10% FCS and containing 1x104 MT-4 cells were added to each well of flat bottomed microtitre trays containing 50 μL of medium without or with serial concentrations of the test compounds. 20 μL of a viral suspension were then added to give 100 CCID50/well. After 4 days incubation at 37ºC, the number of viable MT-4 cells was determined by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)- 2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method (Pauwels R. et al., J. Virol. Meth. 20, 309-321, 1988). Alternatively, cell-free culture supematants were assayed by the HIV- 1 p24 antigen enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA, Abbott). Cytotoxicity of compounds was evaluated in parallel with their antiviral activity and was based on the viability of mock-infected cells, as monitored by the MTT method. As shown in Table 3. representative compounds of the invention were found non-cytotoxic for MT-4 cells at concentrations higher than 100 μM (see CC50 column). Many of them were active against the HIV -1 multiplication at concentrations ranging from 1 to 20 μM (see EC50 column), whereas five compounds turned out highly potent showing EC50 in the submicromolar range.
In order to determine whether these compounds were targeted at the RT, they were tested against theHIV -1 recombinant reverse transcriptase (rRT). Assays were performed at 37º for 30 min. in a 50 μL reaction mixture containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.8), 1 mM dithiothreitol, 80 mM KCl, 6 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mg/mL BSA, 10 mM [3H]-dTTP (1 Ci/mmol), 0.05 OD260 units/mL of Poly(rA)-oligo(dT)ιo and 1.6x10-3 units of enzyme (a unit was defined as the amount of enzyme necessary to incorporate 1 nmol of [3H]-dTMP into the Poly(rA)-oligo(dT)10 template in 1 min. at 37º). 40 μL aliquots were spotted on glass fiber filters (Whatman GF/A) and processed for determination of trichloroacetic acid-insoluble radioactivity. With the exception of 72, 73 and 74 (Table 3), all compounds resulted inhibitory to the rRT at concentrations (see IC50 column) comparable to those active in cell culture-based assays. This confirmed that compounds of formula (I) with R1 = NH2/NO2 interfere with the HIV-1 multiplication by inhibiting the RT activity.

The anti-HIV activity of compounds 41, 42 and 72 was evaluated also against additional HIV-1 laboratory strains (MN, RF), an highly AZT-resistant strain (105/F), a clinical isolate (CAMAS) and two HIV-2 strains (CBL 20, ROD). All the HIV-1 strains resulted sensitive (Table 4), whereas the HIV-2 strains were both unsusceptible to inhibition by compounds of formula (I).

dCompound dose (μM) required to reduce p24 levels by 50%.
The activity of compounds 41, 42 and 72 was evaluated in cultures infected at different multiplicities by measuring p24 antigen levels. Nevirapine, AZT ddl and ddC were used as reference drugs. Interestingly, the compounds of the invention were inhibitory to HIV-1 also in cells acutely infected at high multiplicities of infection (m.o.i.). In this respect they behaved similarly to nevirapine and AZT, but differently from ddl and ddC. In fact, at m.o.i. > 1.0 the later were unable to prevent the viral breakthrough even when used at high concentrations.
Cytotoxicity for normal human cells.
In order to get more insights into the cytotoxic potential of compounds of formula (I), 41, 42 and 72 were tested in vitro against peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from HIV- negative donors and bone marrow granulocyte/monocyte (CFU-GM) precursors from healthy individuals. AZT was used as reference drug. PBL and CFU-GM were obtained by separation on Fycoll-Hypaque gradients. After extensive washings, cells were resuspended (1x106 cells/mL) in RPMI-1640 with 10% FCS and incubated overnight to allow adhesion of the macrophages to the plastic.

aCompound dose (μM) required to reduce the level of p24 antigen by 50% at day 4 post infection. Data represent mean values for two separate experiments. Variation among duplicate samples was less than 15%.
Cytotoxicity of compounds for activated PBL was evaluated by resuspending non- adherent cells at 1x106 cells/mL in growth medium and stimulating with PHA (2.5 μg/mL) for 24 hrs before dilution to 1x105 cells/mL in medium containing PHA (2.5 μg/mL), TL-2 (50 U/mL) and various concentrations of the test compounds. Viable cell numbers were determined six days later. Under these conditions, untreated PBL were able to undergo exponential growth for up to four cell cycles, as determined by viable cell counts. For cytotoxicity evaluations in resting PBL, non-adherent cells were resuspended at high density (1x106 cells/mL) and were treated for 3 days with the test compounds. Then, the cells were extensively washed to remove the inhibitors and were stimulated with PHA for 24 hrs before being diluted to 1x105 cells/mL in medium containing PHA and IL-2. Cell viability was determinee after incubation at 37ºC for six days. CFU/GM (2x105 /mL) were resuspended in Iscove medium containing 0.3% agar and growth factors from the supernatant of 5637 cells. After ten days at 37ºC, colonies (of about 40 cells) were scored under the light microscope.

As shown in Table 6, 41, 42 and 72 proved non-cytotoxic (CC50 > 100 μM) for both PHA-stimulated and resting PBL, whereas AZT resulted cytotoxic for activated PBL. Moreover, when the cytotoxicity of each compound for myeloid precursor cells was evaluated, compounds of formula (I) resulted non-cytotoxic, whereas AZT showed a CC50 of 2.4 μM.
Efficacy in suppressing the HIV-1 infection.
The long-term anti-HIV-1 activity of compound 42 and AZT, alone and in combination, was evaluated in cultures of MT-4 cells and was based on both evaluation of p24 antigen levels and protection from the HIV-1 -induced CPE, as monitored by the Elisa test and the MTT method, respectively. Briefly, 1x106 MT-4 cells were infected with 1x106 CCID50 (1 CCID50 = 25 -250 infectious virions) at 20 ºC for 1 hr, washed three times, resuspended at 2x105 cells/mL as such (m.o.i. > 1) or after dilution 1:10 (m.o.i. = 0.1) or 1:100 (m.o.i. = 0.01) with medium containing 2x105 uninfected cells/mL. 1x104 cells/well were seeded in 96 multiwell plates and grown at 37ºC in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere in the absence or presence of the drags, alone or in combination. 4 days later, the whole sample (0.1 mL) was resuspended in 0.9 mL of fresh medium containing the given drag concentrations and seeded in 24 multiwell plates. After 4 more days, the whole culture (1.0 mL) was resuspended in 9 mL of fresh medium (containing the given drag concentrations) in a 25-cm2 flask. Starting at day 12, only one-tenth (in 25-cm2 flasks) or one hundreth (in 24 multiwell plates) of each culture was further transplanted. It is worth noting that the above procedure, while settling conditions suitable for continuous exponential growth of the cultures, on the other hand allowed to keep all the cells which were originally infected (or the virus produced by them) up to day 12 post infection (p.i.).
When used alone at 10 μM, 42 delayed up to day 12 the rise of p24 antigen (Fig. 1A) and the development of the virus-induced CPE (Fig. 1B). Under the same conditions, AZT 2.5 μM reduced to very low (although still detectable) levels the p24 antigen, prevented the virus-induced CPE and allowed exponential growth of the culture up to day 32 post infection (p.i.). However, when AZT was removed, the HIV-1 multiplication resumed within few days, as evidenced by the rise of p24 levels, production of infectious virus (1.2x106 CCID50/mL) and cell death. In the experiment of Fig. 1 removal of AZT was carried out 20 days p.i., but analogous results were obtained when AZT was removed as early as 4 days p.i. and as late as 28 days p.i..
On the contrary, when the cells were treated with compound 42, 10 μM, in combination with AZT, 2.5 μM (Fig.1), total lack of both p24 antigen and HIV-1- induced CPE was observed for as long as 32 days. Interestingly, when HIV-1 -infected cultures that had been treated with the above combination for 4 days were further transplanted in drag- free medium, no signs of resumption of viral multiplication became evident up to day 32 p.i..
PCR analyses of the experiment in Fig. 1 were in agreement with the above observations. The HIV-1 DNA was checked (as described by Bagnarelli et al, J. Med. Virol. 34, 89- 95. 1991; Menzo et al, J. Clinical Microbiol. 30, 1752-1757, 1992) by using the set of primers SK38 and SK39, which amplify an internal, highly conserved fragment (115 bp) of the gag gene. The reaction mixture was subjected to 35 cycles of denaturation at 93ºC for 15 seconds, annealing at 60 ºC for 15 seconds, extension at 72 ºC for 30 seconds. The extension step of the last cycle was 10 minutes longer to ensure full completion of the newly synthesized strains. Amplified products were analyzed by electrophoresis on low melting point agarose gel and visualized by ethidium bromide staining.
As shown in Fig.2A, the treatment with AZT 2.5 μM was unable to prevent the synthesis of HIV-1 gag sequences, that could be evidenced from day 4 through day 32, no matter whether p24 antigen was barely detectable and infectious virus was absent. By contrast, the cultures treated with the 42-AZT combination remained free of gag DNA sequences starting from day 8 on. The same was true for the samples from which the drugs were removed by day 4 p.i. (Fig.2B).
