Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0031] Chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB) is currently managed with interferon-alpha or nucleoside(tide) analog-based therapies that target the HBV encoded polymerase/reverse transcriptase. The effectiveness of interferon-alpha is limited by inadequate long term responses and severe side effects, while entecavir and tenofovir, are generally well-tolerated, possess a high barrier to resistance and potently suppress viral replication. None of the aforementioned frontline therapies are curative, however, and expensive lifelong therapy is required to maintain a virologic response and prevent the complications associated with liver disease. Novel therapies representing different treatment classes are therefore urgently required to improve functional cure rates (i.e. defined as the loss of HBsAg expression) and shorten treatment durations. Modulators of HBV capsid assembly represent one such class of antivirals with the potential to improve outcomes for chronically infected individuals.

Example II: In Vitro Antiviral Assays

[0526] The anti-HBV activity of the Capsid Assembly Modulators (CAMs) was evaluated in a cell based assay utilizing the human hepatoma cell line HepAD38 (Ladner, S K., et al., 1998). HepAD38 cells were derived from the parental line, HepG2, that were stably transfected with a construct containing an HBV genome (genotype D, serotype ayw) under the control of a tetracycline repressible CMV promoter. Upon removal of tetracycline, viral pre-genomic RNA (pgRNA) and mRNAs are expressed and infectious viral particles are assembled and secreted into the culture medium providing a reliable, robust system to measure multiple steps of the HBV life cycle. Disruption of capsid formation results in reduced levels of DNA-containing virus particles that are released into the culture supernatant. To quantify the effect of CAMs on HBV replication, we developed a sensitive QPCR-based assay that measures extracellular HBV DNA levels upon treatment of HepAD38 cells with various concentrations of test compounds.

[0527] HepAD38 cells were maintained in DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% FBS, 400 μg/mL G418 and 0.3 μg/mL tetracycline (tet+ media) to maintain repression of HBV replication. To evaluate each compound, HepAD38 cells were seeded into 24-well collagen coated culture plates (Corning BioCoat) at a density of 200,000 cells per well in 1 mL of medium without tetracycline (tet-media) and allowed to adhere overnight at 37° C., 5% CO.sub.2 in a humidified incubator. The following day, media was refreshed and a dose range of each compound was prepared by performing 1 log.sub.10 serial dilutions in 100% DMSO at 200× the desired assay concentration. Dilutions were then added to the cells resulting in a final dose range of 1 μM to 10 pM and the plates were returned to the incubator. Following 7 days of incubation, culture supernatants were harvested and HBV DNA levels were evaluated by QPCR and compared to the vehicle treated control wells (i.e. DMSO alone).

[0528] To quantify HBV DNA levels, cell culture supernatants were diluted 1:10 in sterile, nuclease-free water (Gibco). The diluted supernatants were subsequently added to a PCR master mix containing 1× Roche Light Cycler Master Mix, 0.5 μM forward primer, 0.5 μM reverse primer (Fwd: 5′-TTGGTGTCTTTCGGAGTGTG (SEQ ID NO 1); Rev: 5′-AGGGGCATTTGGTGGTCTAT (SEQ ID NO 2)), 0.2 μM Roche Universal Probe Library Probe 25. The volume was brought to 20 μL with nuclease-free water and amplification of the HBV target sequence was performed using a Roche LightCycler 480 QPCR instrument. PCR extended out to 45 cycles with each cycle consisting of a denaturation step at 95° C. for 10 sec., followed by an annealing step at 60° C. for 10 sec. and a brief extension step at 72° C. for 1 sec.

[0529] Extracellular HBV DNA levels, expressed in copies/mL, were determined by comparison to a standard curve (10.sup.2-10.sup.9 copies/mL) using the Roche LightCycler analysis software. These values were subsequently converted to percent inhibition of HBV replication by dividing the HBV DNA levels in the experimental samples with those obtained from the vehicle control (˜1-2×105 copies/mL). Potency, expressed as an EC.sub.50 (the effective concentration required to inhibit 50% of HBV replication), was calculated from the dose-response curve using a 4-parameter non-linear regression analysis (GraphPad Prism). The nucleoside analog inhibitor entecavir was used as a positive control to validate each assay run. The EC.sub.50 value of entecavir in the HepAD38 assay was 0.5 nM, as previously reported in the literature.

Example III: In Vitro Cytotoxicity Assays

[0531] To evaluate antiviral selectivity, the cytotoxic activity of each compound was determined using a standard cell viability assay performed on the parental HepG2 cell line. Cell viability was determined by measuring the conversion of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) to the insoluble formazan salt crystal that occurs in live cells. Briefly, HepG2 cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 20,000 cells per well in EMEM+1000 FBS (complete growth medium) and allowed to adhere overnight in a 37° C., 500 CO.sub.2 humidified incubator. The next day, test agents were prepared by performing 8 half-log.sub.10 serial dilutions in 100% DMSO at 200× the final desired concentration in the assay. Compounds were tested over a range of concentrations from 30 μM to 1.0 nM in the assay. HepG2 cells were incubated in the presence of various concentrations of CAMs for 7 days in a 37° C., 500 CO.sub.2 humidified incubator. At the completion of the 7-day incubation period, MTT reagent was added to each well and the mixture was incubated for an additional 3-4 hours. At the completion of the incubation period, all wells were aspirated to remove the culture medium. The formazan crystals were solubilized from the cell monolayers with 100% DMSO. Plates were briefly mixed on an orbital shaker and absorbance was measured at 492 nm using a Perkin-Elmer EnVision multi-label plate reader. All absorbance values were converted to a percentage of the signal obtained from the vehicle treated controls. Absorbance values at 492 nm are directly proportional to the number of viable cells present in the sample. A CC.sub.50 value (cytotoxic concentration that results in loss of 50% cell viability) was calculated from the dose-response curve by 4-parameter, non-linear regression analysis using the GraphPad Prism software. The positive control compound, staurosporine, reduced the viability of HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner (CC.sub.50=100 nM).

[0532] Table 3 summarizes the cytotoxicity assay data in the hepatocyte cell line HepG2 for the example compounds. A: CC.sub.50>30 μM; B: CC.sub.50 values between 5 μM and 30 μM, inclusive; C: CC.sub.50 values between 0.5 μM and 4.99 μM, inclusive; D: CC.sub.50 values<0.5 μM. NT=not tested. NA=not applicable.
