Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) plays a central role in virus replication. NS5B has no functional equivalent in mammalian cells, and as a consequence is an attractive target for selective inhibition. This paper describes the discovery of a novel family of HCV NS5B non-nucleoside inhibitors inspired by the bioisosterism between sulfonamide and phosphonamide. Systematic structural optimization in this new series led to the identification of IDX375, a potent non-nucleoside inhibitor that is selective for genotypes 1a and 1b. The structure and binding domain of IDX375 were confirmed by X-ray co-crystalisation study.
