Abstract

Lersivirine is a potent non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor with exceptional mutant resilience. Here, we compare the pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profile of lersivirine with its pyrazole and imidazole isomers and briefly explore the profile of these series. This work establishes lersivirine as the outstanding molecule in this set.

Abstract

A major problem associated with non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) for the treatment of HIV is their vulnerability to mutations in the allosteric binding site of reverse transcriptase that can result in the development of a resistant virus. Herein we present the optimization of a series of 5-aryloxy imidazoles, which possess a balanced pharmacological profile against both wild-type enzyme and the clinically relevant mutations K103N and Y181C. Subtle structural changes were used to probe structure-activity relationships relating to both potency and metabolic stability, which led to an imidazole derivative with an impressive overall profile.
