Definitions

  • the present invention relates to vinylpyrimidine-2-one derivatives, the use of the vinylpyrimidine-2-one derivatives as pharmaceutically active agents, especially for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of infectious diseases including opportunistic infections, cell proliferation disorders, cardiovascular disorders, immunological diseases, inflammatory diseases, neuroimmunological diseases, autoimmune diseases, as well as compositions containing at least one vinylpyrimidine-2-one derivative and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and methods for preventing and/or treating such diseases. Furthermore, a process for preparing said vinylpyrimidine-2-one derivatives is disclosed using the corresponding diketones as starting materials.
  • HCMV Human Cytomegalovirus
  • HCMV infection is associated with high mortality rates (80-90% for untreated HCMV pneumonia).
  • Current approaches to develop therapeutics against Cytomegalovirus (CMV) have focused on antiviral agents per se; for example viral polymerase inhibitors. In fact, high mortality rates have been dramatically reduced by new antiviral agents.
  • Current CMV therapeutics possess severe drawbacks, however. For example, Fomivirsen (Vitravene, formerly ISIS 2922) is typically administered by injection directly into the eye every 2 or 4 weeks.
  • Ganciclovir is available for intravenous (Cytovene) or oral administration, and as an implant in the case of retinitis; unfortunately, toxic complications including leukopenia and thrombocytopenia frequently develop.
  • Foscarnet (Foscavir; phosphonoformic acid), another antiviral agent, exhibits considerable renal toxicities and is only available in intravenous form (which is also true for Cidofovir (Vistide), another CMV therapeutic).
  • CMV replication resumes soon after Ganciclovir and Foscarnet treatment is halted.
  • Ganciclovir- and Foscarnet-resistant strains of CMV are emerging.
  • Cytokines serve as messengers that bind to receptors on the surface of a target cell. As a result of the binding, the receptors activate a cascade of downstream signaling molecules, thereby transmitting the message from the exterior of the cell to its nucleus. Signal transduction to the nucleus modulates specific gene expression (i.e., transcription and translation), which results in either the upregulation or downregulation of specific proteins that carry out a particular biological function.
  • Viral infection disrupts normal signal transduction, which leads to cellular malfunctioning resulting in a disease state.
  • interference of HCMV with relevant human primary cells is necessary for the virus to create an environment that allows it to grow and replicate, and in turn cause disease in the infected individual.
  • Current research efforts have failed to elucidate all the specific intracellular signal pathways affected by HCMV infection, however. Discovery of the signal transduction pathways and specific intracellular signal transduction molecules affected by CMV infection would represent a tremendous advance in the understanding of the induction and progression of CMV infection processes and provide new avenues for the development of a novel class of effective therapeutics for the treatment of CMV.

  • Such latent infections are subject to reactivation whereby infectious virus can be recovered in peripheral tissue enervated by the latently infected neurons following a specific physiological stress.
  • a major factor in these "switches” from lytic to latent infection and back involves the interaction between viral promoters, the viral genome, and cellular transcriptional machinery.
  • Herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 are generally associated with mucocutaneous facial infection (herpes labialis), genital infection (herpes genitalis), ophthalmic infection (herpes keratitis) and neonatal infection. The lesions are generally self-healing, but the infection remains, with the virus establishing latent infection in the neurons.
  • HSV-1 In immunocompromised hosts, recurrence of HSV-1 may cause progressive fulminant lesions that are refractory to current antiviral therapy. Neonatal infection is usually systematically spread and may lead to encephalitis. Current antiviral therapy like Acyclovir does not eliminate viral infection. New therapies are needed to either eliminate latent virus or to suppress lesion development over the long term.
  • Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)
  • Epstein-Barr virus is a member of the herpesvirus family and one of the most common human viruses. The virus occurs worldwide, and most people become infected with EBV sometime during their lives. In the United States, as many as 95% of adults between 35 and 40 years of age have been infected. Infants become susceptible to EBV as soon as maternal antibody protection (present at birth) disappears. In the United States and in other developed countries, many persons are not infected with EBV in their childhood years. When infection with EBV occurs during adolescence or young adulthood, it causes infectious mononucleosis 35% to 50% of the time.
  • Symptoms of infectious mononucleosis are fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph glands. Sometimes, a swollen spleen or liver involvement may develop. Heart problems or involvement of the central nervous system occurs only rarely, and infectious mononucleosis is almost never fatal. There are no known associations between active EBV infection and problems during pregnancy, such as miscarriages or birth defects. Although the symptoms of infectious mononucleosis usually resolve in 1 or 2 months, EBV remains dormant or latent in a few cells in the throat and blood for the rest of the person's life. Periodically, the virus can reactivate and is commonly found in the saliva of infected persons. This reactivation usually occurs without symptoms of illness.
  • EBV also establishes a lifelong dormant infection in some cells of the body's immune system.
  • a late event in a very few carriers of this virus is the emergence of Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, two rare cancers that are not normally found in the United States.
  • EBV appears to play an important role in these malignancies, but is probably not the sole cause of disease. No antiviral drugs or vaccines for EBV except Ganciclovir are available.
  • HHV8 Human herpesvirus 8
  • KSHV Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus
  • KSHV is a virus belonging to the family of herpesviruses. KSHV was discovered in 1994. The virus has two names that are commonly used: KSHV which is its descriptive name and HHV8 which is its formal name. Both names are essentially interchangeable. KSHV causes a blood vessel cancer called Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), a lymphoma (a cancer of the lymphocyte) called body cavity-based lymphoma and some forms of severe lymph node enlargement, called Castleman's disease. The rates of KSHV infection in the general population of Mediterranean countries (Italy, Greece, Israel, Saudi Arabia) are higher than in North America and Northern Europe. Adult populations in some portions of Africa have very infection rates (>50%). This virus can be transmitted through sexual contact.
  • KS Kaposi's sarcoma
  • lymphoma a cancer of the lymphocyte
  • Castleman's disease some forms of severe lymph node enlargement
  • KSHV is also probably transmitted to some extent through nonsexual routes, perhaps from oral contact (kissing). Once exposed to KSHV, infection is probably life-long and the immune system of healthy adults keeps the virus in check at extremely low levels.
  • the real problem with KSHV occurs when an infected person becomes immunosuppressed. This occurs among transplant patients and patients receiving chemotherapy. There is good evidence that if someone is infected with KSHV and becomes immunosuppressed, then their chances of developing clinically detectable disease due to KSHV is higher than for other common viral infections. Infection with KSHV is diagnosed by a blood test.
  • VZV Varicella-zoster virus
  • Chicken pox is an infection that is caused by the Varicella-zoster virus (VZV). VZV spreads in nasal discharge and in fluid from inside the chicken pox blisters. Chicken pox is very contagious, and 90% of people who are not immune will catch it when they are exposed. Epidemics are most common in the late winter and early spring, and children between ages 5 and 9 account for half of all cases.
  • VZV Varicella-zoster virus
  • chicken pox is a mild illness, but it can cause serious complications, including pneumonia, encephalitis, and serious bacterial infections of chicken pox blisters.
  • VZV remains in the body. It lies dormant in nerve cells and may be reactivated later in life to cause shingles. Children (and others) who develop varicella and have weakened immune systems may be treated with Acyclovir.
