Abstract
A facile and direct intramolecular indolinone-quinolone rearrangement was developed for the synthesis of quinolino[3,4-b]quinoxalin-6-ones from spiro[indoline-3,2'-quinoxaline]-2,3'-diones, which are readily available with use of isatines, malononitrile, and 1,2-phenylenediamines under quite mild conditions. This efficient approach provides excellent yields and could potentially be used for the construction of a diverse library of quinolino[3,4-b]quinoxalin-6-ones for high-throughput screening in medicinal chemistry. The reaction mechanism is explored by extensive DFT calculations.

Abstract
In order to discover new therapeutically active agents a series of novel copper(II) complexes with 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinoxalinones were synthesized. All complexes were characterized by IR and EPR spectroscopic techniques and examined for their cytotoxic effect on human cancer cell lines HeLa, LS174, A549 and normal fibroblasts (MRC-5). For further examination of the cytotoxic mechanisms of novel complexes, three of them were chosen for analysing their effects on the distribution of HeLa cells in the cell cycle phases. The results of the flow cytometry analysis suggest that tested complexes lead to time-dependent accumulation of the cells in S and G2/M phases. The strongest accumulation effect showed complex 2d after 48 h of incubation. Competitive experiments with ethidium bromide (EB) indicated that tested compound 2d have affinity to displace EB from the EB-DNA complex through intercalation. Also, the binding parameters values for 2d-BSA complex showed that a reversible 2d-BSA complex is formed and ligand 2d can be stored and carried by BSA.

Abstract
The effect of food on the bioavailability of GW420867X, a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, was investigated in 15 young, healthy, male volunteers. A single oral dose of GW420867X 100 mg was administered in the fasted state, after a high-fat meal, and after a meal of normal fat composition. Tolerability and pharmacokinetic sampling were assessed at baseline and up to 600 hours. The median concentration-time plots for each treatment group were essentially superimposable. Neither the rate nor the extent of absorption of GW420867X was significantly affected by food. The median time to peak plasma concentration was 3 to 4 hours, irrespective of treatment. Pairwise comparisons using the fasted treatment as the comparator showed no impact of food on GW420867X pharmacokinetics. GW420867X was well tolerated. There were no serious or treatment-limiting adverse events; all episodes reported were rated as mild to moderate. The bioavailability of GW420867X was unaffected by food. GW420867X may be administered independently of food and fat intake.

Abstract
The potent nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor UC781 has been safety tested as a vaginal microbicide gel formulation for prevention of HIV-1 sexual transmission. To investigate whether UC781 retained anti-infective activity following exposure to the female genital tract, we conducted an ex vivo analysis of the UC781 levels and antiviral activity in cervicovaginal lavage (CVL) fluids from 25 Thai women enrolled in a 14-day safety trial of twice-daily vaginal application of two concentrations of the UC781 microbicide gel. CVL samples were collected from women in the 0.1% (n = 5), 0.25% (n = 15), and placebo (n = 5) gel arms following the first application of gel (T(15 min)) and 8 to 24 h after the final application (T(8-24 h)) and separated into cell-free (CVL-s) and pelletable (CVL-p) fractions. As UC781 is highly hydrophobic, there were significantly higher levels of UC781 in the CVL-p samples than in the CVL-s samples for the UC781 gel arms. In T(8-24 h) CVL-p samples, 2/5 and 13/15 samples collected from the 0.1% and 0.25% UC781 gel arms, respectively, efficiently blocked infection with ≥ 4 log(10) 50% tissue culture infective dose (TCID(50)) of a CCR5-tropic CRF01_AE HIV-1 virus stock. Independent of the arm, the 11 CVL-p samples with UC781 levels of ≥ 5 μg/CVL sample reduced infectious HIV by ≥ 4 log(10) TCID(50). Our results suggest that the levels and anti-infective activities of UC781 gel formulations are likely to be associated with a cellular or pelletable component in CVL samples. Therefore, cellular and pelletable fractions should be assayed for drug levels and anti-infective activity in preclinical studies of candidate microbicides.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.Tb) is a bacillus capable of causing a chronic and fatal condition in humans known as tuberculosis (TB). It is estimated that there are 8 million new cases of TB per year and 3.1 million infected people die annually. Thirty-six new amide quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated as potential anti-tubercular agents, obtaining biological values similar to the reference compound, Rifampin (RIF).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects on viral load and assess dose-response relationships, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of lersivirine (UK-453,061), a next-generation nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, in asymptomatic HIV-1-infected patients. DESIGN Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter phase IIa clinical study. METHODS Forty-eight HIV-1-infected patients were enrolled for the study of once-daily or twice-daily lersivirine at total daily doses ranging from 20 to 1000 mg. The primary endpoint was the change in log10 plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load from baseline to day 8. Secondary endpoints related to pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability and potential development of viral resistance and genotyping patterns. RESULTS Patients treated with lersivirine achieved day 8 mean viral load reductions of 0.3, 0.8, 1.3 and 1.6 log10 after receiving 10, 30, 100 and 500 mg twice daily, respectively, and 0.9, 1.7 and 1.8 log10 after receiving 100, 500 and 750 mg once daily, respectively. Mean changes from baseline to day 8 were small in patients receiving placebo. For all dose regimens, plasma exposure increased approximately in line with lersivirine dose. Median plasma concentrations of lersivirine at steady state were above the IC90 for lersivirine at once-daily doses of at least 500 mg and twice-daily doses of at least 100 mg. The most commonly reported treatment-emergent adverse events were headache, fatigue and nausea. CONCLUSION Seven-day monotherapy with lersivirine achieved mean viral load reductions up to 1.8 log10. Lersivirine was safe and well tolerated. Further studies of lersivirine in combination with other antiretroviral drugs to assess long-term durability of antiviral response, safety and tolerability are warranted.

Abstract
Owing to the emergence of resistant virus, next generation non-nucleoside HIV reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) with improved drug resistance profiles have been developed to treat HIV infection. Crystal structures of HIV-1 RT complexed with benzophenones optimized for inhibition of HIV mutants that were resistant to the prototype benzophenone GF128590 indicate factors contributing to the resilience of later compounds in the series (GW4511, GW678248). Meta-substituents on the benzophenone A-ring had the designed effect of inducing better contacts with the conserved W229 while reducing aromatic stacking interactions with the highly mutable Y181 side chain, which unexpectedly adopted a "down" position. Up to four main-chain hydrogen bonds to the inhibitor also appear significant in contributing to resilience. Structures of mutant RTs (K103N, V106A/Y181C) with benzophenones showed only small rearrangements of the NNRTIs relative to wild-type. Hence, adaptation to a mutated NNRTI pocket by inhibitor rearrangement appears less significant for benzophenones than other next-generation NNRTIs.

Abstract
Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) using a hybrid QqToF-MS/MS instrument has aided the structural characterization and differentiation of a novel series of medicinal synthetic 1-N-glycoside-quinoxalinone derivatives. These derivatives 7 and 8 are formed by an amino bond between the cyclic N-1 of the quinoxaline moiety and the C-6 position of a fully protected methyl or allyl alpha-D-mannofuranoside 3 and 4, and subsequent deprotection of the mannopyranoside moiety. In general the novel synthetic quinoxaline derivatives afforded the protonated molecules in ESI. The breakdown routes of the protonated molecules were rationalized by conducting low-energy CID-MS/MS analyses. In addition, re-confirmation of the various established fragmentation routes was achieved by conducting a series of ESI-CID-QqTof-MS/MS product ion scans on various selected precursor ions, which were initiated by CID in the atmospheric pressure/vacuum interface using a higher declustering potential. ESI-QqToF-MS/MS analysis has proven to be a specific and very sensitive method for the structural identification in the gas phase of these novel glycoquinoxalinamine derivatives.

Abstract
The HIV/AIDS pandemic has existed for >25 years. Extensive work globally has provided avenues to combat viral infection, but the disease continues to rage on in the human population and infected approximately 4 million people in 2006 alone. In this review, we provide a brief history of HIV/AIDS, followed by analysis of one therapeutic target of HIV-1: its reverse transcriptase (RT). We discuss the biochemical characterization of RT in order to place emphasis on possible avenues of inhibition, which now includes both nucleoside and non-nucleoside modalities. Therapies against RT remain a cornerstone of anti-HIV treatment, but the virus eventually resists inhibition through the selection of drug-resistant RT mutations. Current inhibitors and associated resistance are discussed, with the hopes that new therapeutics can be developed against RT.

Abstract
The selection of drug resistant viruses is a major problem in efforts to combat HIV and AIDS, hence, new compounds are required. We report crystal structures of wild-type and mutant HIV-1 RT with bound non-nucleoside (NNRTI) GW420867X, aimed at investigating the basis for its high potency and improved drug resistance profile compared to the first-generation drug nevirapine. GW420867X occupies a smaller volume than many NNRTIs, yet accesses key regions of the binding pocket. GW420867X has few contacts with Tyr188, hence, explaining the small effect of mutating this residue on inhibitor-binding potency. In a mutated NNRTI pocket, GW420867X either remains in a similar position compared to wild-type (RT(Leu100Ile) and RT(Tyr188Cys)) or rearranges within the pocket (RT(Lys101Glu)). For RT(Leu100Ile), GW420867X does not shift position, in spite of forming different side-chain contacts. The small bulk of GW420867X allows adaptation to a mutated NNRTI binding site by repositioning or readjustment of side-chain contacts with only small reductions in binding affinity.

Abstract
The emergence of HIV/AIDS as a disease spread through sexual intercourse has prompted the search for safe and effective vaginal and rectal microbicides for curbing mucosal viral transmission via semen. Since endogenous reverse transcription is implicated in augmenting the sexual transmission of HIV-1 infection, potential microbicides should have the inherent ability to optimally inhibit both wild-type and drug-escape mutants. The non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), which bind to an allosteric site on RT, are an important arsenal of drugs against HIV-1. The clinical success of NNRTI-based HIV/AIDS therapies has led to extensive structural and molecular modelling studies of enzyme complexes and chemical synthesis of second- and third-generation NNRTIs. Rationally designed NNRTIs deduced from changes in binding pocket size, shape and residue character that result from clinically observed NNRTI resistance-associated mutations exhibit high binding affinity for HIV-1 RT and robust anti-HIV activity against the wild-type and drug-escape mutants without cytotoxicity. Notably, membrane permeable tight binding NNRTIs have the ability to inactivate cell-free as well as cell-associated HIV-1 in semen without metabolic activation. Consequently, NNRTIs currently under development as experimental microbicides include thiourea-PETT (where PETT stands for phenethylthiazolylthiourea) derivatives (PHI-236, PHI-346 and PHI-443), urea-PETT derivatives (MIV-150), oxypyrimidines (S-DABOs), thiocarboxanilides (UC-781) and diarylpyrimidines (TMC-120). Mucoadhesive formulations of these NNRTIs have been studied for safety and efficacy in animal models and some have entered Phase I safety testing in humans. This review focuses on the structural, biological and preclinical studies relevant to the clinical development of these NNRTIs as molecular virucides intended to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV-1.

Abstract
New [2',5'-bis-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-beta-d-ribofuranosyl]-3'-spiro-5' '-(4''-amino-1'',2''-oxathiole-2'',2''-dioxide) (TSAO) derivatives substituted at the 4' '-amino group of the spiro moiety with different carbonyl functionalities have been designed and synthesized. Various synthetic procedures, on the scarcely studied reactivity of the 3'-spiroaminooxathioledioxide moiety, have been explored. The compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effect on both wild-type and TSAO-resistant HIV-1 strains, in cell culture. The presence of a methyl ester (10) or amide groups (12) at the 4''-position conferred the highest anti-HIV-1 activity, while the free oxalyl acid derivative (11) was 10- to 20-fold less active against the virus. In contrast, the presence at this position of (un)substituted ureido or acyl groups markedly diminished or annihilated the anti-HIV-1 activity. Surprisingly, some of the target compounds also showed inhibition of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) replication at subtoxic concentrations. This has never been observed previously for TSAO derivatives. In particular, compound 26 represents the first TSAO derivative with dual anti-HIV-1 and -HCMV activity.

Abstract
The antiviral drug 2',3'-didehydro-3'-deoxythymidine (D4T; also know as stavudine and Zerit), which is used against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), causes delayed toxicity (peripheral neuropathy) in long-term use. After examining a series of 2',3'-didehydro-3'-deoxy-4'-substituted thymidine (4'-substituted D4T) analogs, 4'-ethynyl D4T was found to have a fivefold-better antiviral effect and to cause less cellular and mitochondrial toxicity than D4T. The antiviral activity of this compound can be reversed by dThd but not by dCyd. The compound acted synergistically with beta-L-2',3'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (also known as lamivudine) and beta-L-2',3'-dideoxy-2',3'-didehydro-5-fluorocytidine (also known as elvucitabine) and additively with 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (also known as didanosine and Videx) and 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (also known as Retovir and zidovudine) against HIV. 4'-Ethynyl D4T is phosphorylated by purified human thymidine kinase 1 (TK-1) from CEM cells with a faster relative V(max) and a lower K(m) value than D4T. The efficiency of TK-1 in the phosphorylation of 4'-ethynyl D4T is fourfold better than that of D4T. While D4T is broken down by the catabolic enzyme thymidine phosphorylase, the level of breakdown of 4'-ethynyl D4T was below detection. Since 4'-ethynyl D4T has increased anti-HIV activity and decreased toxicity and interacts favorably with other currently used anti-HIV drugs, it should be considered for further development as an anti-HIV drug.

Abstract
The nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors UC-781 and TMC120-R147681 (Dapivirine) effectively prevented human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in cocultures of monocyte-derived dendritic cells and T cells, representing primary targets in sexual transmission. Both drugs had a favorable therapeutic index. A 24-h treatment with 1,000 nM UC-781 or 100 nM TMC120-R147681 prevented cell-free HIV infection, whereas 10-fold-higher concentrations blocked cell-associated HIV.

Abstract
The HIV-2 serotype of HIV is a cause of disease in parts of the West African population, and there is evidence for its spread to Europe and Asia. HIV-2 reverse transcriptase (RT) demonstrates an intrinsic resistance to non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTIs), one of two classes of anti-AIDS drugs that target the viral RT. We report the crystal structure of HIV-2 RT to 2.35 A resolution, which reveals molecular details of the resistance to NNRTIs. HIV-2 RT has a similar overall fold to HIV-1 RT but has structural differences within the "NNRTI pocket" at both conserved and nonconserved residues. The structure points to the role of sequence differences that can give rise to unfavorable inhibitor contacts or destabilization of part of the binding pocket at positions 101, 106, 138, 181, 188, and 190. We also present evidence that the conformation of Ile-181 compared with the HIV-1 Tyr-181 could be a significant contributory factor to this inherent drug resistance of HIV-2 to NNRTIs. The availability of a refined structure of HIV-2 RT will provide a stimulus for the structure-based design of novel non-nucleoside inhibitors that could be used against HIV-2 infection.

Abstract
Because prevention of heterosexual HIV transmission is not always possible, it is important to develop effective strategies of postexposure prophylaxis (PEP). Since in vivo comparison of drug potency is difficult, we developed an in vitro model with cells resembling primary targets during sexual transmission: monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MO-DCs), Langerhans cells (MO-LCs), and resting autologous CD4(+) T cells. Nucleoside and nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs and NNRTIs, respectively) were evaluated for their antiviral activity, when added immediately after infection or at a later time point. In parallel, their immune-suppressive effect was examined by measuring inhibition of mixed MO-DC/allogeneic CD4(+) T cell cultures. Most RTIs potently inhibited HIV replication, even if added 24 hr after infection (representing PEP). The sensitivity to antiretroviral drugs was similar in HIV-infected MO-DCs and MO-LCs, but decreased in cocultures with resting autologous CD4(+) T cells. The NNRTIs efavirenz and UC-781 as well as the NRTIs AZT, 3TC, and d4T showed a similar high potency in MO-DC plus autologous CD4(+) T cell cocultures as compared with CEM T cells, whereas their activity in phytohemagglutinin/interleukin 2 (PHA/IL-2)-activated CD4(+) T cells was lower. The dideoxynucleoside RTI abacavir as well as the phosphonates (R)-PMPA and PMEA were more active in infected MO-DCs as compared with either CEM T cells or PHA/IL-2 activated CD4(+) T cells. Infection in cocultures of MO-DCs and autologous CD4(+) T cells could be aborted in a proportion of the cultures, with high concentrations of PMEA and/or efavirenz, but not with AZT. Suppressive activity in mixed leukocyte cultures was observed only at very high concentrations of RTI. Our data suggest that cocultures of MO-DCs and autologous CD4(+) T cells can be used as a possible in vitro model to explore protocols for PEP after sexual HIV transmission.

Abstract
The aim of the current study was to characterize the pharmacokinetics of GW420867X, a new nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, using a single escalating dose protocol in healthy volunteers. Four dose levels were investigated in sequential order: 300, 600, 900, and 1200 mg, with a ratio of 4:1 subjects receiving active or placebo treatment, respectively. Following single-dose administration, GW420867X was readily absorbed with a median time to peak concentration of 3 to 5 hours. GW420867X plasma exposure (AUC) was dose proportional but variable within the 300 to 1200 mg dose range. Less than dose-proportional increases were observed for Cmax. The terminal elimination t(1/2) was 50 hours, which supports once-daily dosing in future studies. Plasma trough concentrations of GW420867X at 24 hours after dosing were many fold greater than the in vitro IC50 HIV-1(HXB2) in MT4 cells. GW420867X was generally well tolerated following single-dose administration up to 900 mg; increased central nervous system-related adverse events were observed at higher doses. GW420867X had a favorable pharmacokinetic and safety profile that would enable this drug to be explored in future clinical studies with HIV-1 infected patients at doses that would provide appropriate safety and efficacy.

Abstract
PURPOSE GW420867X is a nonnucleoside inhibitor of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. The primary objective was to assess the safety of GW420867X in HIV-1-infected patients. The secondary objectives were to assess the effect of GW420867X on plasma HIV-1 RNA and viral genotype and phenotype and to examine the pharmacokinetics of GW420867X in HIV-1-infected patients. METHOD HIV-1-infected patients were randomized to GW420867X 50 mg/day, 100 mg/day, or 200 mg/day from days 1-28 (n = 15 per group). Lamivudine (3TC) plus zidovudine (ZDV) was added from days 8-28. A control group (n = 15) received GW420867X, 3TC, and ZDV placebos. RESULTS Plasma HIV-1 RNA and CD4+ counts improved in the GW420867X groups at days 8 and 28. No significant development of drug resistance was detected. Median observed peak GW420867X concentration (C(max)) generally occurred at 2 hours. The area under the curve over the dosing interval (AUCtau)on day 14 increased less than proportionally to dose, suggesting there was increased clearance and/or decreased absorption. Mean trough GW420867X concentrations were many fold above the in vitro IC(50) in the presence of human serum proteins. Seven of 15 patients on 50 mg GW420867X, 8/15 on 100 mg GW420867X, 12/15 on 200 mg GW420867X, and 8/15 on placebo reported drug-related adverse events. CONCLUSION GW420867X was well tolerated and has potent antiretroviral activity alone and in combination with 3TC plus ZDV.
