Synthesis, Structure–Activity Relationships, and In Vivo Evaluation of Novel C‑17 Amine Derivatives Based on GSK3640254 as HIV‑1 Maturation Inhibitors with Broad Spectrum Activity

An investigation of the structure–activity relationships of a series of HIV-1 maturation inhibitors (MIs) based on GSK3640254 (4) was conducted by incorporating novel C-17 amine substituents to reduce the overall basicity of the resultant analogues. We found that replacement of the distal amine on t...

Summary:An investigation of the structure–activity relationships of a series of HIV-1 maturation inhibitors (MIs) based on GSK3640254 (4) was conducted by incorporating novel C-17 amine substituents to reduce the overall basicity of the resultant analogues. We found that replacement of the distal amine on the C-17 sidechain present in 4 with a tertiary alcohol in combination with either a heterocyclic ring system or a cyclohexyl ring substituted with polar groups provided potent wild-type HIV-1 MIs that also retained excellent potency against a T332S/V362I/prR41G variant, a laboratory strain that served as a surrogate to assess HIV-1 polymorphic virus coverage. Compound 26 exhibited broad-spectrum HIV-1 activity against an expanded panel of clinically relevant Gag polymorphic viruses and had the most desirable overall profile in this series of compounds. In pharmacokinetic studies, 26 had low clearance and exhibited 24 and 31% oral bioavailability in rats and dogs, respectively.
