The HBV capsid core protein serves a number of important functions in the viral life cycle enabling chronic HBV infection to persist, and therefore is a promising drug target. Interfering with capsid assembly has shown efficacy in clinical trials with small molecule capsid assembly modulators (CAMs). Herein is described the further optimization of a progressive series of diazepinone HBV CAMs.
HBV 衣壳核心蛋白在病毒生命周期中发挥着许多重要功能,使慢性 HBV 感染得以持续存在,因此成为有前途的药物靶点。干扰衣壳组装已在小分子衣壳组装调节剂 (CAM) 的临床试验中显示出疗效。本文描述了对一系列逐步优化的二氮杂环酮 HBV CAM 的进一步优化。
