  • This viral enzyme catalyses the integration of viral DNA into host cell chromosomal DNA to form a provirus .
  • This essential step in the viral life cycle proceeds by integrase recognizing and binding to attachment sites located at the ends of linear viral DNA, followed by the cleavage of highly conserved CA dinucleotides from the 5' and 3' long-terminal repeats .
  • This reaction known as 3' -processing, occurs in the cytoplasm and exposes the 3 ' -0H group from the CA unit .
  • This OH group subsequently acts as a nucleophile by attacking the host DNA in a transesterification reaction .
  • strand transfer or integration occurs in the nucleus .
  • HIV integrase is further attractive as a target for the development of anti-HIV drugs because there is apparently no functional equivalent of this enzyme in human cells . It has also been reported that integrase inhibitors in combination with either reverse transcriptase or protease inhibitors are potently synergistic against both wild-type HIV and reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistant viruses (Robinson WE Jr et al Antiviral Res . 1998 , 39, .101-111 ; Beale K et al Antiviral Res 2000 , 46, 223-232 ) .
  • integrase inhibitors A number of integrase inhibitors have been reported, including nucleotide-based inhibitors, DNA binders, catechols , hydrazides, etc (Neamati N : Expert Opin Ther Patents 2002 , 12 , 709-724 ) . Most of these compounds inhibit integrase function in extracellular oligonucleotide assays but often lack inhibitory potency when assayed using fully assembled preintegration complexes or fail to show antiviral effects against HIV-infected cells .
  • a class of diketo- containing int'egrase inhibitors has been found to inhibit viral replication by blocking the strand transfer step of integrase reactions ( Pais GCG & Burke TR Jr : Drugs of the Future, 2002 , 27 , 1101-1111 ) .
  • An inhibitor of this class has been in clinical trials for the treatment of HIV infection (Billich A: Curr . Opin . Investig . Drugs 2003 , 4 , 206-209 ) .

Description

HYDROXYDIHYDROPYRIDOPYRAZINE-1 , 8-DIONES AND METHODS FOR
INHIBITING HIV INTEGRASE
This application claims the benefit of U . S . Provisional Application Serial No . 60/638 , 180 , filed December 23, 2004 , the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference .
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to novel compounds and method for the treatment or prevention of HIV infection/ AIDS .
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION HIV integrase is an attractive therapeutic target for the development of drugs to treat HIV infection
( Pommier Y et al : Antiviral . Chem. Chemother . 1997 , 8 ,
463-83 ; De Clercq, E : Med Res Rev 2002 , 22 , 531-565 ;
Nair V: Rev. Med. Virol . 2002 , Ϊ2 , 179-193) . It is a protein of Mr 32000 encoded at the 3 ' -end of pol gene . This viral enzyme catalyses the integration of viral DNA into host cell chromosomal DNA to form a provirus . This essential step in the viral life cycle proceeds by integrase recognizing and binding to attachment sites located at the ends of linear viral DNA, followed by the cleavage of highly conserved CA dinucleotides from the 5' and 3' long-terminal repeats . This reaction, known as 3' -processing, occurs in the cytoplasm and exposes the 3 ' -0H group from the CA unit . This OH group subsequently acts as a nucleophile by attacking the host DNA in a transesterification reaction . This second
i reaction, referred to as strand transfer or integration, occurs in the nucleus . These reactions are
• adequately represented in vitro using purified integrase, a double-stranded DNA template matching the viral DNA ends as a substrate surrogate along with a divalent metal ion (Mn2+ or Mg2+) cofactor . It has been reported that selective inhibition of strand transfer reaction results in the inhibition of HIV viral replication ( Pais GCG & Burke TR Jr : Drugs of the Future, 2002 , 27 , 1101-1111 ) .
HIV integrase is further attractive as a target for the development of anti-HIV drugs because there is apparently no functional equivalent of this enzyme in human cells . It has also been reported that integrase inhibitors in combination with either reverse transcriptase or protease inhibitors are potently synergistic against both wild-type HIV and reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistant viruses (Robinson WE Jr et al Antiviral Res . 1998 , 39, .101-111 ; Beale K et al Antiviral Res 2000 , 46, 223-232 ) .
A number of integrase inhibitors have been reported, including nucleotide-based inhibitors, DNA binders, catechols , hydrazides, etc (Neamati N : Expert Opin Ther Patents 2002 , 12 , 709-724 ) . Most of these compounds inhibit integrase function in extracellular oligonucleotide assays but often lack inhibitory potency when assayed using fully assembled preintegration complexes or fail to show antiviral effects against HIV-infected cells . A class of diketo- containing int'egrase inhibitors has been found to inhibit viral replication by blocking the strand transfer step of integrase reactions ( Pais GCG & Burke TR Jr : Drugs of the Future, 2002 , 27 , 1101-1111 ) . An inhibitor of this class has been in clinical trials for the treatment of HIV infection (Billich A: Curr . Opin . Investig . Drugs 2003 , 4 , 206-209 ) . However, in spite of their high integrase inhibitory potencies , diketo- containing compounds are electrophilic and they bind covalently to human cellular proteins leading to potential cytotoxicity. In addition, it has been reported recently that some diketo-containing compounds interfere with DNA cleavage and disintegration activities of RAG1/2 which are essential for the development of mammalian immune system (Melek M et al : Proc . Natl . Acad . Sci . USA 2002 , 99, 134-7 ) .
