Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel method for inhibiting the growth, elaboration and/or replication of HIV in human patients and to the prevention and treatment of human acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and other diseases caused by retroviral infection. More particularly, in preferred aspects, the present invention provides a method for the use of a novel class of oligodeoxynucleotides consisting of 4-thio-2'-deoxyuridylate units for the prevention and treatment of both wild type and drug-resistant Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV), the causative pathogen of AIDS.
- HIV Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1
- NRTIs Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
- NRTIs Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
- NRTIs i.e., zidovudine [AZT], lamivudine, didanosine, zalcitabine, stavudine
- ZT zidovudine
- lamivudine didanosine
- zalcitabine stavudine
- stavudine do not carry functional 3'hydroxyl groups.
- NNRTIs i.e., nevirapine [NVP], delaviridine, loviride
- NNP nevirapine
- loviride the enzymes active site
- a new approach toward the development of anti-HIV drugs based on the inhibition of reverse transcriptase involves oligonucleotide and polynucleotides functioning as antitemplates [Bardos et al, Antimicrob. Agents Chemother.36, 108-114 (1992)]. These inhibitors are believed to act by binding to the template site of the polymerase enzyme and thereby displacing the natural viral template [Bardos and Ho, In: New Approaches to the Design of Antineoplastic Agents (Bardos, TJ and Kalman, TI eds.) Elsevier/North Holland, Amsterdam, New York, 315-332 (1982); Vlassov et al, V. Mil. Biol.
- the antigene, or triple-helix forming, oligonucleotides exert their inhibitory activities by interaction with the double helical DNA and thereby inhibiting nucleic acid synthesis [Heider and Bardos, In; Cancer Chemotherapy Agents, American Chemical Society Wash. D.C., 529-565, (1995)].
- the antitemplates which are non-sequence specific and may be entirely homopolymers (i.e., composed from mononucleotide units derived from the same base), represent a unique class of retrovirus inhibitors based on their chemical structure and mode of action.
- a second class of antitemplates was recently prepared by conversion of the 4-amino group of the cytosine bases to the corresponding 4-thio groups in 2'-deoxyoligocytidylates [Tokes and Aradi, FEBS Lett. 396, 43-46 (1996)].
- the resulting 4-thiodeoxy uridylic acids showed competitive inhibition of the reverse transcriptase enzyme of HIV similar to that obtained with the partially 5-thiolated oligocytidylates.
- n 33, i.e., the compound is a 35meric oligonucleotide, which is termed "Suligovir”.
- Figure 2 shows the stability of 4-thio-modified oligodeoxyuridylates determined by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after incubation of each compound for 0, 12 and 24 hours in tissue culture media containing 10% fetal calf serum. Bands of oligonucleotides and their breakdown products were visualized using a silver stain kit.
- Figures 3A and 3B shows the result of experiments to study the chain length dependency of the inhibition of HIV replication by 4-thiolated oligodeoxyuridylates using the 20mer, 30mer and 35mer (Suligovir). Their inhibitory potential were determined in MT4 cells measuring the reverse transcriptase activity in the supernatant of the infected cell cultures. The shorter oligonucleotides were less active against HIV.
- Figure 3A the concentration of oligonucleotides were given on the basis of mass. When the concentrations were 88 nM (corresponding to 1 ⁇ g/ml of Suligovir) the difference in inhibitory activity was even more pronounced ( Figure 3B).
- Figure 4 shows the results of toxicity studies of Suligovir in mammalian cells determined by studying the effects of this drug on the colony formation of human granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells, which are a major target of agents that can damage bone marrow. Cytotoxicity was measured using the an automated tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay as previously described [Pauwels et al, J Virol. Methods, 20, 309-321 (1988); Ikeda et al, Antiviral Res, 29, 163-173 (1996)]. As shown in Figure A, Suligovir did not considerably affect colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells, even at doses as high as 180 ⁇ g/ml.
- the present invention relates to the use of 4-thio-2'-oligodeoxyuridylic acids, preferably ranging in length from 12 to 82 nucleotide units (referred to as 12 mer or 82 mer), preferably 35 nucleotide units (35 mer) for the inhibition of the growth, replication and/or elaboration of HIV in humans, and thereby for the suppression or cure of AIDS and AIDS related symptoms. It further relates to the use of these compounds in topical application for the prevention of AIDS, due to their ability to inhibit the entry of HIV into the cells.
- the research data on which this invention is based demonstrate the activity of these compounds as inhibitors of the replication of both drug-sensitive (wild-type) and drug-resistant HIV, in particular, strains of HIV which are resistant to NRTIs, for example, zidovudine, lamivudine, didanosine, zalcitabine and stavudine, among others and NNTRIs, for example, nevirapine, delaviridine and loridine, among others.

- concentration of modified oligonucleotides was determined measuring the phosphate content of the stock solution [Tokes and Aradi, FEBS Lett. 396, 43-46 (1996)].
- Anti-HIV Activity of the 4-Thiolated Oligodeoxynucleotides Two types of assay systems were used to study the anti-HIV activity of the 4-thiolated oligodeoxynucleotides. All experiments were performed in triplicate at least twice. In some studies, the inhibitory activity of the 4-thiolated oligomers against HIV was determined using a reverse transcriptase assay employing supernatants from the culture media of the Human T cell culture line, MT-4 , infected with HIV-l(IIIB) (Hoffman et al, Virology, 147, 326-335, (1985)]).
- TCID 50 tissue culture infectious doses that establishes a productive infection in 50% of the parallel cultures
- TCID 50 tissue culture infectious doses that establishes a productive infection in 50% of the parallel cultures
- the cells were removed by centrifugation and the reverse transcriptase activity was determined in 50 ml aliquots of the supernatants using poly (A).poly(dT) ⁇ 6 as the template primer and [ 3 H]dTTP as the monomer substrate.
- the radioactive product was collected by filtration and quantified by liquid scintillation counting.
- the oligonucleotide inhibitors were added to the cultures of MT-4 cells 1 hour post infection or as indicated. Appropriate control samples were prepared without inhibitors.
- a syncytium-forming microassay was used to quantify the amount of infectious HIV in supernatant fluid of virus infected Human CEM-SS cell cultures [Nara et al, AIDS Res Hum Retroviruses, 3, 283-302 (1987); Toth et al, J. Virol, 69, 2223- 2232 (1995)].
- Individual wells of a 96-well microtiter plate were coated with 50 ⁇ l of a 50 ⁇ g/ml ploy-L-lysine solution (PLL), allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hour, after which residual PLL was removed by two washes with PBS.
- PLL ploy-L-lysine solution
- CEM-SS cells suspended in complete RPMI 1640 were plated into each well at a final concentration of 5 x 10 4 cells/well. The cells were allowed to attach for 30 min at 37°C. Following this, supernatants were removed from the wells and replaced with 100 1 fresh complete media. The wells were examined for the presence of adherent syncytium-forming units (SFU's) at 4 days post infection. Control CEM-SS cells were always included as a reference source when evaluating syncytium formation.
- SFU's adherent syncytium-forming units
- the 4-thiolated oligodeoxyuridylates are competitive inhibitors of the purified HIV-1 reverse transcriptase with respect to the template primer, fulfilling the requirement for an antitemplate inhibitor, i.e. the inhibitory oligonucleotide interacts with the free enzyme, competing for the template-binding site with its natural counterparts [Tokes and Aradi, FEBS Lett. 396, 43-46 (1996)].
- the inhibitory activity of the 4-thiolated oligodeoxyuridylates on purified reverse transcriptase depended on the chain length. Clearly more of the smaller molecules than of the larger molecules are required to fully occupy the templates site.
- Suligovir is a very potent inhibitor of HIV-1 attachment and entry into target cells (Table 3), 500 times more potent than the standard used in this assay, the polymer California Sky Blue (CSB).
- Suligovir inhibited virus entry (as measured by an attachment assay utilyzing the expression of the ⁇ -galactosidase enzyme measured by chemiluminescence in viral infected HeLa CD4
- Cytotoxicity The toxicity of Suligovir to mammalian cells was determined by studying the effects of this drug on the colony formation of human granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells, which are a major target of agents that can damage bone marrow. Cytotoxicity was measured using the an automated tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay as previously described [Pauwels et al, J. Virol. Methods, 20, 309-321 (1988); Ikeda et al, Antiviral Res, 29, 163-173 (1996)]. As shown in Figure 4, Suligovir did not considerably affect colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells, even at doses as high as 180 ⁇ g/ml.
- NRTI nucleoside-type reverse transcriptase inhibitors
- NRTI non-nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors
- Viral cytopathogencity was determined by Serquest Inc., a Division of Southern Research Institute, Gaithersburg Maryland using the tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay, and the data were analyzed using a program developed by the Southern Research Institute. A number of viruses were used in these studies, which include some that are resistant to both the NNRTIs and NRTIs. None of these viruses was resistant to Suligovir as shown in the summary Tables 4 and 5.
- This series of thiolated oligonucleotides are chemically well-defined molecules that inhibit the replication of HIV by either or both of the following two mechanisms: 1) by inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase at the template binding site; 2) inhibition of the entry of HIV into cells. They show a broad range of activity against various HIV mutants and therefore should be useful in the treatment of drug-resistant AIDS. In addition, they may be used in topical formulations as a prophylactic agent to prevent the spread of AIDS.
- Time of INHIBITION 3 treatment (RT activity: cpnr 5 ;
- CSB Chicago Sky Blue. This is a control compound with a known effect on both virus attachment and fusion.
