Ebola virus (EBOV) causes a deadly hemorrhagic fever in humans and non-human primates. There is currently no FDA-approved vaccine or medication to counter this disease. Here, we report on the design, synthesis and anti-viral activities of two classes of compounds which show high potency against EBOV in both in vitro cell culture assays and in vivo mouse models Ebola viral disease. These compounds incorporate the structural features of cationic amphiphilic drugs (CAD), i.e they possess both a hydrophobic domain and a hydrophilic domain consisting of an ionizable amine functional group. These structural features enable easily diffusion into cells but once inside an acidic compartment their amine groups became protonated, ionized and remain trapped inside the acidic compartments such as late endosomes and lysosomes. These compounds, by virtue of their lysomotrophic functions, blocked EBOV entry. However, unlike other drugs containing a CAD moiety including chloroquine and amodiaquine, compounds reported in this study display faster kinetics of accumulation in the lysosomes, robust expansion of late endosome/lysosomes, relatively more potent suppression of lysosome fusion with other vesicular compartments and inhibition of cathepsins activities, all of which play a vital role in anti-EBOV activity. Furthermore, the diazachrysene 2 (ZSML08) that showed most potent activity against EBOV in in vitro cell culture assays also showed significant survival benefit with 100% protection in mouse models of Ebola virus disease, at a low dose of 10 mg/kg/day. Lastly, toxicity studies in vivo using zebrafish models suggest no developmental defects or toxicity associated with these compounds. Overall, these studies describe two new pharmacophores that by virtue of being potent lysosomotrophs, display potent anti-EBOV activities both in vitro and in vivo animal models of EBOV disease.

The present invention provides a sulfonamide- or sulfonylurea-containing heterocyclic compounds. Specifically, it provides a heterocyclic compound represented by the formula (I), a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof or a hydrate of them. In the formula, A is hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1-C4 alkyl or alkoxy group which may be substituted with a halogen atom, or cyano group; B is an optionally substituted aryl group or monocyclic heteroaryl group, or: (wherein, the ring Q is an aromatic ring which may have nitrogen atom; and the ring M is a ring sharing a double bond with the ring Q, which ring may have a heteroatom; and the rings Q and M may share nitrogen atom); K is a single bond; T, W, X and Y are the same as or different from each other and each is ═C(D)— (wherein, D is hydrogen or a halogen atom) or nitrogen atom; U and V are the same as or different from each other and each is ═C(D)—, nitrogen atom, —CH2—, oxygen atom or —CO—; Z is a single bond or —CO—NH—; and R1 is hydrogen atom, etc.
