Inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) attachment. 5. An evolution from indole to azaindoles leading to the discovery of 1-(4-benzoylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(4,7-dimethoxy-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-3-yl)ethane-1,2-dione (BMS-488043), a drug candidate that demonstrates antiviral activity in HIV-1-infected subjects.

ABSTRACT
Azaindole derivatives derived from the screening lead 1-(4-benzoylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethane-1,2-dione (1) were prepared and characterized to assess their potential as inhibitors of HIV-1 attachment. Systematic replacement of each of the unfused carbon atoms in the phenyl ring of the indole moiety by a nitrogen atom provided four different azaindole derivatives that displayed a clear SAR for antiviral activity and all of which displayed marked improvements in pharmaceutical properties. Optimization of these azaindole leads resulted in the identification of two compounds that were advanced to clinical studies (R)-1-(4-benzoyl-2-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(4-methoxy-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)ethane-1,2-dione (BMS-377806, 3) and 1-(4-benzoylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(4,7-dimethoxy-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-3-yl)ethane-1,2-dione (BMS-488043, 4). In a preliminary clinical study, 4 administered as monotherapy for 8 days, reduced viremia in HIV-1-infected subjects, providing proof of concept for this mechanistic class.
