Ritonavir (RTV), an
HIV-1 protease
inhibitor (PI), is also a potent mechanism-based inhibitor of human cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) and has been widely prescribed as a pharmacoenhancer. As a boosting agent for marketed PIs, it reduces pill burden, and improves compliance. Removal of the hydroxyl group from RTV reduces, but does not eliminate HIV PI activity and does not affect CYP3A inhibition. Herein we report the discovery of a novel series of CYP3A inhibitors that are devoid of antiviral activity. The synthesis and evaluation of analogs with extensive modifications of the 1,4-diamine core along with the structure activity relationships with respect to anti-HIV activity, CYP3A inhibitory activity, selectivity against other CYP enzymes and the human
pregnane X receptor
(
PXR
) will be discussed.
