Discovery of Adamantane Carboxamides as Ebola Virus Cell Entry and Glycoprotein Inhibitors.


ABSTRACT: We identified and explored the structure-activity-relationship (SAR) of an adamantane carboxamide chemical series of Ebola virus (EBOV) inhibitors. Selected analogs exhibited half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (EC50 values) of ∼10-15 nM in vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) pseudotyped EBOV (pEBOV) infectivity assays, low hundred nanomolar EC50 activity against wild type EBOV, aqueous solubility >20 mg/mL, and attractive metabolic stability in human and nonhuman liver microsomes. X-ray cocrystallographic characterizations of a lead compound with the EBOV glycoprotein (GP) established the EBOV GP as a target for direct compound inhibitory activity and further provided relevant structural models that may assist in identifying optimized therapeutic candidates.
