Benefits of technology

"The patent describes compounds, methods, and compositions for treating hepatitis C infection. The compounds include β-D or β-L nucleosides, phosphates, acyl, alkyl, sulfonate esters, and other pharmaceutically acceptable forms. The patent also describes methods of using these compounds to treat hepatitis C infection. The technical effects of the patent include providing new compounds and methods for treating hepatitis C infection, which can help to improve the effectiveness and safety of treatment."

Problems solved by technology

Thus, Ribavirin alone is not effective in reducing viral RNA levels.
Additionally, Ribavirin has significant toxicity and is known to induce anemia.
Unfortunately, the effects of IFN are temporary and a sustained response occurs in only 8%-9% of patients chronically infected with HCV (Gary L. Davis. Gastroenterology 18:S104-S114, 2000).
Side effects of combination therapy include hemolysis, flu-like symptoms, anemia, and fatigue.

Abstract

A method and composition for treating a host infected with hepatitis C comprising administering an effective hepatitis C treatment amount of a described 1′, 2′ or 3′-modified nucleoside or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof, is provided.

Description

[0001] This invention is in the area of pharmaceutical chemistry, and is in particular, is a compound, method and composition for the treatment of hepatitis C virus. This application claims priority to U.S. provisional application No. 60 / 206,585, filed on May 23, 2000.FIELD OF THE INVENTION BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. (Boyer, N. et al. J. Hepatol. 32:98-112, 2000). HCV causes a slow growing viral infection and is the major cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (Di Besceglie, A. M. and Bacon, B. R., Scientific American, October: 80-85, (1999); Boyer, N. et al. J Hepatol. 32:98-112, 2000). An estimated 170 million persons are infected with HCV worldwide. (Boyer, N. et al. J. Hepatol. 32:98-112, 2000). Cirrhosis caused by chronic hepatitis C infection accounts for 8,000-12,000 deaths per year in the United States, and HCV infection is the leading indication for liver transplant. [0003]...
