Description:
ADVANTAGEOUS ANTI-HCV COMBINATION THERAPY CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of provisional U.S. Application No.63/212,047 filed June 17, 2021. The entirety of this application is hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a pharmaceutical combination of a specific NS5B polymerase inhibitor and a specific NS5A inhibitor for advantageous and synergistic HCV therapy. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Hepatitis C (HCV) is an RNA single-stranded virus and member of the Hepacivirus genus. It is estimated that the majority of all cases of liver disease are caused by HCV. HCV infection can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer, and if left to progress, liver failure that may require a liver transplant. RNA polymerase is a key target for drug development against RNA single stranded viruses. The HCV non-structural protein NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a key enzyme responsible for initiating and catalyzing viral RNA synthesis. There are two major subclasses of NS5B inhibitors: nucleoside analogs and non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNIs). Nucleoside analogs are anabolized to active triphosphates that act as alternative substrates for the polymerase. Non- nucleoside inhibitors (NNIs) bind to allosteric regions on the protein. Nucleoside or nucleotide inhibitors mimic natural polymerase substrates and act as chain terminators. They inhibit the initiation of RNA transcription and/or elongation of a nascent RNA chain. In addition to targeting RNA polymerase, other RNA viral proteins may also be targeted for treatment. Examples of HCV proteins that are additional targets for therapeutic approaches are NS3/4A (a serine protease) and NS5A (a non-structural protein that is an essential component of HCV replicase and exerts a range of effects on cellular pathways). In December 2013, the first nucleoside NS5B polymerase inhibitor sofosbuvir (Sovaldi ® , Gilead Sciences) was approved. Sovaldi ® is a uridine phosphoramidate prodrug that is taken up by hepatocytes and undergoes intracellular activation to afford the active metabolite, 2’-deoxy-2’- α-fluoro-β-C-methyluridine-5’-triphosphate.

2’-D hosphate Sovaldi ® is the first drug that demonstrated safety and efficacy to treat certain types of HCV infection without the need for co-administration of interferon. Sovaldi ® is the third drug with breakthrough therapy designation to receive FDA approval. A number of fixed-dose drug combinations have been approved for the treatment of HCV. In 2014, the U.S. FDA approved Harvoni ® (ledispasvir, a NS5A inhibitor, and sofosbuvir) to treat chronic hepatitis C virus Genotype 1 infection. Harvoni ® is the first combination pill approved to treat chronic HCV Genotype 1 infection. It is also the first approved regimen that does not require administration with interferon or ribavirin. In addition, the FDA approved simeprevir (Olysio TM ) in combination with sofosbuvir (Sovaldi ® ) as a once-daily, all oral, interferon and ribavirin-free treatment for adults with Genotype 1 HCV infection. The U.S. FDA also approved AbbVie’s VIEKIRA Pak TM in 2014, a multi-pill pack containing dasabuvir (a non-nucleoside NS5B polymerase inhibitor), ombitasvir (a NS5A inhibitor), paritaprevir (a NS3/4A inhibitor), and ritonavir. The VIEKIRA Pak TM can be used with or without ribavirin to treat Genotype 1 HCV infected patients including patients with compensated cirrhosis. VIEKIRA Pak TM does not require interferon co-therapy. In July 2015, the U.S. FDA approved Technivie TM and Daklinza TM for the treatment of HCV genotype 4 and HCV Genotype 3, respectively. Technivie TM (Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir) was approved for use in combination with ribavirin for the treatment of HCV genotype 4 in patients without scarring and cirrhosis and is the first option for HCV-4 infected patients who do not require co-administration with interferon. Daklinza TM was approved for use with Sovaldi ® to treat HCV genotype 3 infections. Daklinza TM is the first drug that demonstrated safety and efficacy in treating HCV Genotype 3 without the need for co- administration of interferon or ribavirin. In October 2015, the U.S. FDA warned that HCV treatments Viekira Pak and Technivie can cause serious liver injury primarily in patients with underlying advanced liver disease and required that additional information about safety be added to the label. In August 2017, Mavyret ® (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir) was approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of patients with all major genotypes of HCV (genotypes 1-6). The treatment was also approved for patients without cirrhosis or with mild cirrhosis, those on dialysis, and those with a genotype 1 infection who have been previously treated with a regimen containing an NS5A or an NS3/4A inhibitor. Mavyret ® is taken as an 8-week course in non-cirrhotic patients who have not been previously treated. In 2019, the FDA approved an 8-week course in patients who have compensated cirrhosis and have not been previously treated. Along with Mavyret ® , Epclusa ® is another therapeutic for HCV treatment. Epclusa was developed by Gilead and is a fixed-dose combination therapy containing sofosbuvir (an NS5B inhibitor) and velpatasvir (an NS5A inhibitor). Epclusa ® was approved in 2016 for the treatment of adults with chronic HCV infection of all major genotypes of HCV (genotypes 1-6) and is prescribed for a 12-week course in patients without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis. For patients with decompensated cirrhosis, Epclusa ® is approved for use in combination with ribavirin. Other approved therapies for HCV include interferon alpha-2b or pegylated interferon alpha-2b (Pegintron ® ), which can be administered with ribavirin (Rebetol ® ), NS3/4A telaprevir (Incivek ® , Vertex and Johnson & Johnson), boceprevir (Victrelis TM , Merck), simeprevir (Olysio TM , Johnson & Johnson), paritaprevir (AbbVie), Ombitasvir (AbbVie), and the NNI Dasabuvir (ABT-333).

Elbasvir is an HCV NS5A inhibitor approved by the FDA in 2016 as a component of a fixed-dose combination with grazoprevir, an NS3/4A protease inhibitor. The combination (Zepatier ® ) is approved for treatment of naïve and previously treated patients and a normal course is 12 weeks. However, in patients with an HCV genotype 1a carrying mutations at positions 28, 30, 31, and/or 93, Zepatier ® must be administered for 16 weeks with ribavirin to be effective. Ribavirin carries several FDA boxed warnings, including the risk of hemolytic anemia and teratogenicity. Ruzasvir (MK-8408) is an oral, pan genotypic NS5A inhibitor that has been clinically evaluated for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. Ruzasvir has a sub- to low-picomolar affinity for HCV NS5A, across a wide range of HCV genotypes and common clinical mutants, including HCV genotype 1 with Y93H, Q30R, L31V, and Y93C mutations. (Tong et al. “Discovery of Ruzasvir (MK-8408): A Potent, Pan-Genotype HCV NS5A Inhibitor with Optimized Activity against Common Resistance-Associated Polymorphisms” J. Med. Chem. 2017, 60, 290-306). WO 2014/110705 and U.S. Patent No. 9,555,038 assigned to Merck and Company disclose ruzasvir, pharmaceutical compositions comprising ruzasvir and their methods of use.

In 2015, Merck, Sharp & Dohme sponsored clinical trials to determine the efficacy of grazoprevir and uprifosbuvir in combination with elbasvir or rusazvir against patients with a range of HCV genotypes. This three-drug regimen achieved sustained virological response after 12 weeks in 85-100% of patients infected with a range of HCV genotypes. (See, for example, NCT02332707, NCT02332720, Lawitz, E. “Safety and efficacy of a fixed-dose combination regimen of grazoprevir, ruzasvir and uprifosbuvir with or without ribavirin in participants with and without cirrhosis with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1, 2, or 3 infection (C-CREST-1 and C-CREST-2, part B): two randomized, phase 2, open-label trials” 2017, Lancet Gastroenterol Hepatol, doi:10.1016/S2468-1253(17)30163-2). Grazoprevir, one component of the three-drug regimen, is a NS3/4A protease inhibitor. This class of therapeutics can cause drug-drug interactions and elevated hepatic transaminase levels. In 2016, Merck initiated Phase II open-label clinical trials of ruzasvir and the NS5B inhibitor uprifosbuvir, in a two-drug regimen without the NS3/4A inhibitor. At the studied dose of 60 mg ruzasvir and 450 mg uprifosbuvir per day, the combination was well tolerated but suboptimal efficacy was observed, and the clinical trial was terminated (C-BREEZE 1; NCT02759315). The same combination but in higher doses (180 mg ruzasvir, 450 mg uprifozbuvir), achieved sustained virological responses of over 90% in participants infected with HCV GT1, GT2, GT4, GT5, and GT6. However, the response in participants infected with GT3 was only 73.8%. Furthermore, over 30% of trial participants experienced a drug-related adverse event (C-BREEZE 2; NCT02956629; Lawitz, E. “Efficacy and Safety of Two-Drug Direct-Acting Antiviral Agent Regimen Ruzasvir 180 mg and Uprifosbuvir 450 mg for 12 Weeks in Adults with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6” 2019, J. Viral Hepat.26, 9, 1127-1138). The second, higher dose trial was also terminated. Atea Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has discovered advantageous nucleotide phosphoramidates of the structure β-D-2'-deoxy-2'-α-fluoro-2'-β-C-substituted-2-modified-N 6 -(mono- and di-methyl) purine nucleosides for the treatment of HCV. (U.S Patent Nos. 9,828,410; 10,000,523; 10,005,811; 10,239,911; 10,519,186; 10,815,266; 10,870,672; 10,870,673; 10,875,885; 10,894,804; and 10,906,928 and US Applications US 2021-0015841; US 2020-0179415). In particular, isopropyl ((S)-(((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-(methylamino)-9H-purin-9-y l)-4- fluoro-3-hydroxy-4-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl) methoxy) (phenoxy)phosphoryl)-L-alaninate hemisulfate (AT-527, bemnifosbuvir) has surprising benefits such as high bioavailability, target organ selectivity, and high potency against all genotypes of HCV including GT3 (WO2018/144640). ) In the ir reduced viral load by 4.5 log10 IU/mL in non-cirrhotic participants and 4.6 log10 IU/mL in cirrhotic participants. In the cirrhotic patient group, it was equally effective against a range of genotypes, including the hard to treat GT3 (GT1b: 4.0, 4.0, 4.5; GT2: 5.0; GT3: 4.8, 5.2) (NCT03219957; Berliba, E. et al. “Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Antiviral Activity of AT-527, a Novel Purine Nucleotide Prodrug, in Hepatitis C Virus-Infected Subjects with or without Cirrhosis” 2019, Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 63 (12): e01201-19). In a combination trial of bemnifosbuvir and a first-generation HCV NS5A inhibitor daclatasvir, all ten subjects reached HCV RNA below the lower limit of quantification. 90% of subjects experienced sustained undetectable viral load 12 weeks after treatment (SVR12). The one subject who did not experience SVR12 had a series of resistance-associated variants (NS5A: R30Q, NS5B: L159F/A218S/C316N) (NCT04019717; Mungur, O. et al. “A combination of AT- 527, a potent pan-genotypic guanosine nucleotide prodrug and daclatasvir was well-tolerated and effective in HCV-infected subjects”, 2020, poster THU438 at The International Liver Congress meeting). However, this trial was terminated. There remains a strong medical need to develop anti-HCV therapies that are safe, effective and well-tolerated. The need is accentuated by potential drug resistance. The HCV RNA polymerase exhibits a high rate of replication that contributes to the production of potentially resistant single and double point mutations throughout the genome and the maintenance of viral quasispecies. Resistance mutations have been identified both in vitro and in vivo upon treatment with nearly all monotherapies. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, methods, and dosage forms to treat and/or prevent infections of HCV. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides the highly synergistic combination of Compound 1, which is a potent pan-genotypic NS5B polymerase inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., AT-527, bemnifosbuvir), and Compound 2, which is an NS5A inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (ruzasvir, MK-8408), for treatment of a hepatitis C infection in a host, typically a human. Compound 1 is isopropyl((S)-(((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-(methylamino)-9H- purin-9- yl)-4-fluoro-3-hydroxy-4-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methoxy) (phenoxy)phosphoryl)-L- alaninate: Compound 1 was previously described in U.S. Patent Nos. 9,828,410; 10,000,523; 10,005,811; 10,239,911; 10,815,266; 10,80,672; 10,870,673; 10,875,885; and PCT Applications WO 2016/21276 and WO 2019/200005 assigned to Atea Pharmaceuticals. The hemisulfate salt of Compound 1 is shown below as Compound 1-A: Compound 1-A is disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos.10,519,186; 10,906,928; 10,894,804; and PCT Applications WO 2018/144640 and WO 2019/200005 assigned to Atea Pharmaceuticals. Compound 2 is ruzasvir (dimethyl N,N′-([(6S)-6-(2-Cyclopropyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-1- fluoro-6H-indolo[1,2-c][1,3]benzoxazine-3,10-diyl]bis{1H-imi dazole-5,2-diyl-(2S)-pyrrolidine- 2,1-diyl[(2S)-3-methyl-1-oxobutane-1,2-diyl]})dicarbamate): In one embodiment, Compound 2 is an amorphous solid. In yet another embodiment, Compound 2 is a crystalline solid. In one embodiment, Compound 2 is administered as the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Compound 2 is disclosed in WO 2014/110705 and U.S. Patent No.9,555,038. Previous clinical trials of ruzasvir in combination with the NS5B inhibitor uprifosbuvir were terminated due to lack of efficacy. With this background, it was discovered that the combination of Compound 1 (e.g., AT-527) and ruzasvir are highly synergistic when tested at multiple doses (see Example 30 and Figure 34). At each combination dose, the expected additive antiviral protection was subtracted from the experimentally observed antiviral activity resulting in a positive value for synergy, a zero value for additive or a negative value for antagonistic. Synergy volumes of -50 to 50 μM 2 % are considered additive, 50 to 100 μM 2 % indicate slight synergy and volumes greater than 100 μM 2 % are considered highly synergistic. The combination of Compound 1 and Compound 2 was evaluated at a range of doses and demonstrates high synergy. A plot of synergy versus dose of each compound is shown in FIG.34. At 40 nM Compound 1 and 0.008 nM Compound 2, the synergy volume is 255 μM 2 %, more than five times the cutoff for synergistic effects and in the category of highly synergystic. This synergistic combination of two anti-HCV agents acting together with distinct mechanisms can be provided systemically, for example, orally, as two or more separate dosage forms or a combined dosage form. If administered separately, the medications should be provided in a manner that the host receives the benefit of both active agents acting in a concerted biological manner, for example, in a manner that achieves an overlapping pharmacokinetic, plasma and/or AUC exposure. In addition to effectively treating the virus, the combination drug therapy is especially advantageous in limiting the emergence of drug resistance. In one nonlimiting embodiment, Compound 1 is provided as a hemisulfate salt. In one embodiment, this fixed-dose combination is intended to achieve a sustained viral response in about or less than 12 weeks, for example about or less than 10 weeks, 8 weeks or 6 weeks or less. In addition to effectively treating the virus, the combination drug therapy is helpful in limiting the emergence of drug resistance. The weight of active compound in the dosage form described herein is with respect to either the free form or the salt form of the compound unless otherwise specifically indicated. For example, 600 mg of Compound 1-A is the equivalent of 550 mg of Compound 1. In a typical embodiment, Compound 1 is administered in a dosage of between about 300 and 1000 mg (with or without regard to the weight of the salt), more typically between 400 or 500 and 600 or 800 mg, or between 500 and 750 mg. In certain embodiments, Compound 1 is administered in a dosage of between about 500 and about 1,500 mg. In one example 550 mg of Compound 1 is administered as a dosage of about 600 mg of Compound 1-A. In an alternative embodiment, 1,100 mg of Compound 1 is administered as a dosage of about 1,200 mg Compound 1-A. In a typical embodiment, Compound 2 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt is administered in a dosage of about between 20 and 500 mg, more typically between 40 and 250 mg, for example, including but not limited to at least 60, 70, 75, 100, 125, 150, 180, 200, 225, 250, 270, 300, 350 or 400 mg in the dosage form. In certain embodiments, Compound 2 is administered in a dosage form that includes about at least 90, 180, 270 or 360 mg. In certain embodiments, the combination includes 550 mg of Compound 1-A and about at least 90, 180, 270 or 360 mg of Compound 2 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt (for example 180 mg). In certain embodiments, this combination is provided once, twice or three times a day. The combined therapeutic can be administered once, twice or three times or more a day, as recommended by the healthcare practitioner. In certain embodiments, the combined therapeutic is provided once a day. In other embodiments, the combined therapeutic is provided twice a day. In yet another embodiment, the combined therapeutic is provided three times a day. In certain embodiments, Compound 1-A is provided in a solid dosage of 600 mg per day and Compound 2 is provided in the combined or a separate dosage form at 180 mg/day, which together can be given 1, 2, or 3 times a day. In various aspects, Compound 1 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt and Compound 2 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt are formulated together in a single dosage form or provided in several dosage forms (e.g., two or more dosages, each of which has both actives or wherein one dosage has one active agent and the other dosage has the other active agent). In an alternative embodiment, Compound 1 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt and Compound 2 or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, are provided in separate dosage forms but in a manner that they can act in concert, for example, synergistically, in the host. For example, the separate dosage forms can be administered such that there is an overlapping AUC, or other pharmacokinetic parameter that indicates that the actives are working together against the virus. In one aspect of the present invention, Compound 1 and Compound 2 are provided in separate pills and are administered at approximately the same time, or simultaneously, over the course of a day. The combination of Compound 1 (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A) and Compound 2 (or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) can also be used to treat related conditions such as anti-HCV antibody positive and antigen positive conditions, viral-based chronic liver inflammation, liver cancer resulting from advanced hepatitis C (hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)), cirrhosis, chronic or acute hepatitis C, fulminant hepatitis C, chronic persistent hepatitis C and anti-HCV-based fatigue. In certain embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered for up to 24 weeks, up to 12 weeks, for up to 10 weeks, for up to 8 weeks, for up to 6 weeks, or for up to 4 weeks. In alternative embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered for at least 4 weeks, for at least 6 weeks, for at least 8 weeks, for at least 10 weeks, for at least 12 weeks, or for at least 24 weeks. In certain embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered at least once a day or every other day. In alternative embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered twice a day. In alternative embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered three times a day or more. In certain embodiments, the patient is non-cirrhotic. In certain embodiments, the patient is cirrhotic. In a further embodiment, the cirrhotic host has compensated cirrhosis. In an alternative embodiment, the cirrhotic host has decompensated cirrhosis. In one embodiment, the host has Child-Pugh A cirrhosis. In an alternative embodiment, the host has Child-Pugh B or Child-Pugh C cirrhosis. The above combinations can also be used to treat the range of HCV genotypes. At least six distinct genotypes of HCV, each of which have multiple subtypes, have been identified globally. Genotypes 1-3 are prevalent worldwide and Genotypes 4, 5, and 6 are more limited geographically. Genotype 4 is common in the Middle East and Africa. Genotype 5 is mostly found in South Africa. Genotype 6 predominately exists in Southeast Asia. Although the most common genotype in the United States is Genotype 1, defining the genotype and subtype can assist in treatment type and duration. For example, different genotypes respond differently to different medications. Optimal treatment times vary depending on the genotype infection. Within genotypes, subtypes, such as Genotype 1a and Genotype 1b, may respond differently to treatment as well. Infection with one type of genotype does not preclude a later infection with a different genotype. In one embodiment, a combination of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 1, HCV Genotype 2, HCV Genotype 3, HCV Genotype 4, HCV Genotype 5, or HCV Genotype 6. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 1a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 1b. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 2a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 2b. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 3a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 3b. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 4a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 4d. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 5a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 6a. In one embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are used to treat HCV Genotype 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e, 6f, 6g, 6h, 6i, 6j, 6k, 6l, 6m, 6n, 6o, 6p, 6q, 6r, 6s, 6t, or 6u. The invention also includes the specific combination and dosage forms wherein Compound 1-A may be in the form of an amorphous or crystalline salt and, independently, Compound 2 may be crystalline or amorphous. The present invention thus includes at least the following embodiments: (a) An effective anti-HCV combination of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) An effective solid dosage form of a combination of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (c) Embodiment (a) or (b) wherein Compound 1 is Compound 1-A; (d) Embodiments (a)-(c), wherein a third anti-HCV effective agent is used in the combination; (e) Embodiment (d) wherein the third anti-HCV effective agent acts through a different mechanism than Compound 1, Compound 1-A, or Compound 2; (f) A pharmaceutical composition comprising the combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(e) in a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. (g) Embodiment (f) wherein the combination is in the form of a combined pharmaceutical composition form; (h) Embodiment (f) wherein the combination is in the form of separate pharmaceutical dosage forms for each active agent, for use in a concerted fashion; (i) The pharmaceutical dosage forms of (f)-(h) which are suitable for oral delivery; (j) The dosage form of (i) that is in the form of a pill, tablet, or gel; (k) The pharmaceutical dosage forms of (f)-(h) which are suitable for parental delivery; (l) The pharmaceutical dosage forms of (f)-(h) which are suitable for intravenous delivery; (m) Use of an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l) in the manufacture of a medicament for treatment of a hepatitis C virus infection in a patient in need thereof; (n) A method for manufacturing a medicament intended for the therapeutic use for treating a hepatitis C virus infection in a patient in need thereof, characterized in that an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l) is used in the manufacture; (o) A method for treating a hepatitis C virus infection comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l); (p) A method for curing a hepatitis C virus infection comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l); (q) A method for prophylactically treating a patient at risk of a hepatitis C virus infection comprising administering to the patient in need thereof an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l); (r) A method for treating conditions related to a hepatitis C viral infection selected from viral-based chronic liver inflammation, liver cancer resulting from advanced hepatitis C (hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)), cirrhosis, chronic or acute hepatitis C, fulminant hepatitis C, chronic persistent hepatitis C and anti-HCV-based fatigue comprising administering to the patient in a patient in need thereof an effective combination of any one of embodiments (a)-(l); (s) Any of embodiments (m)-(r) wherein the patient is cirrhotic.

In the present invention, Compound 1-A can be provided in the synergistic combination therapy as a crystalline form, or alternatively, a crystalline form can be used in a spray dry manufacturing procedure. Figures 1-15 depict the characterization of the physical form of Compound 1-A by XRPD, DSC, and TGA. Compound 1-A can be isolated in a crystalline form which may facilitate synthesis and processing. The pharmacokinetics of Compound 1-A are important to the success of the combination therapy. Figure 16 depicts the advantageous biodistribution properties of Compound 1-A. The compound concentrates in the liver, the target organ for HCV infection, over the heart. Because the liver concentration is high, it is advantageous for liver combination therapy. Likewise, Figures 17, 18, and 21-23 depict the pharmacokinetic properties of Compound 1-A and major metabolites. Although Compound 1-A is metabolized within 8 hours, active metabolites are present for up to 24 hours. During the 24 hour period in which the metabolites are present, a suppression of HCV viral RNA is observed. At doses of 300 mg, the plasma concentrations of Compound 1-A metabolites are higher than the EC95 of HCV GT1b. These pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics assist with successful combination therapy. Figures 19 and 20 demonstrate the pan genotypic potency of Compound 1-A. Pan- genotypic activity in this combination therapy can prevent the development of resistant HCV mutants. Figures 25-31 depict Compound 1 metabolite and HCV viral RNA levels in cirrhotic hosts who were administered Compound 1. Figure 27 highlights that in the hosts, Compound 1 is equally effective in cirrhotic patients as in non-cirrhotic patients. The combination of Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and Compound 2, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be used to treat HCV in both cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic patients. The pharmaceutical composition comprising Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be formulated as an oral dosage form. Figure 32 depicts an example process by which tablets for oral dosing may be prepared. Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are combined together, sieved, blended and tableted to provide the combination as an oral dosage form.

As described in Example 30, effects of the drug combination are calculated based on the activity of the two compounds when tested alone. The expected additive antiviral protection is subtracted from the experimentally determined antiviral activity at each combination concentration resulting in a positive value (synergy, or potentiation), a negative value (antagonism), or zero (additivity). The results of the combination assays are presented three dimensionally at each combination concentration, yielding a surface of activity extending above (synergy) or below (antagonism) the plane of additivity. The combination of Compound 1 and Compound 2 is synergistic over a wide range of concentrations of both Compound 1 and Compound 2. From about 0.156 to about 1 and 2.5 to 40 or more nM of Compound 1, synergy is observed. From about 0.001 nM to about 0.008 nM Compound 2 is the range of Compound 2 in which the most synergy is observed. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a highly active synergistic combination of a specific NS5B polymerase inhibitor and a specific NS5A inhibitor for the advantageous treatment of a hepatitis C infection in a host, typically a human. The anti-HCV compounds used in this combination therapy are: 1) the NS5B inhibitor isopropyl((S)-(((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-(methylamino)-9H- purin-9-yl)-4-fluoro-3-hydroxy- 4-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methoxy)(phenoxy)phosphoryl)-L- alaninate (Compound 1), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and 2) the NS5A inhibitior Ruzasvir (dimethyl N,N′- ([(6S)-6-(2-cyclopropyl-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)-1-fluoro-6H-indolo [1,2-c][1,3]benzoxazine-3,10- diyl]bis{1H-imidazole-5,2-diyl-(2S)-pyrrolidine-2,1-diyl[(2S )-3-methyl-1-oxobutane-1,2- diyl]})dicarbamate) (Compound 2) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In a typical embodiment, Compound 1 is administered as the hemi-sulfate salt derivative (Compound 1-A). In one embodiment, the combination of drugs are administered in a fixed-dose dosage form, such as a pill or tablet. In an alternative embodiment, the two compounds are administered in a manner that the host in need thereof receives the benefit of the both compounds in a concerted fashion, as measured by standard pharmacokinetics. Compound 1 and Compound 1-A Compound 1 (isopropyl((S)-(((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-(methylamino)-9H -purin-9- yl)-4-fluoro-3-hydroxy-4-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methoxy) (phenoxy)phosphoryl)-L- alaninate) was previously described in U.S. Patent Nos.9,828,410; 10,000,523; 10,005,811; and, 10,239,911 and PCT Applications WO 2016/21276 and WO 2019/200005 assigned to Atea Pharmaceuticals. The synthesis of Compound 1 is described in Example 1 below. Compound 1-A was previously disclosed in US 2018-0215776 and PCT Applications WO 2018/144640 and WO 2019/200005 assigned to Atea Pharmaceuticals. The synthesis of Compound 1-A (the hemi-sulfate salt of isopropyl((S)-(((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6- (methylamino)-9H-purin-9-yl)-4-fluoro-3-hydroxy-4-methyltetr ahydrofuran-2- yl)methoxy)(phenoxy)phosphoryl)-L-alaninate) is described in Example 4 below. In one embodiment Compound 1-A is provided in a pharmaceutically acceptable composition or solid dosage form thereof. In another embodiment, Compound 1-A is an amorphous solid. In one embodiment, Compound 1-A is a crystalline solid. Figures 1-15 depict the characterization of the physical form of Compound 1-A by XRPD, DSC, and TGA. As described above, Compound 1-A has completed a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial for patients infected with HCV. The multiple part study evaluated the effect of single and multiple doses of Compound 1-A in healthy subjects, non-cirrhotic HCV-infected patients, and cirrhotic HCV- infected patients. Compound 1-A induced significant antiviral reduction when administered to all HCV-infected cohorts tested. Compound 1-A was administered once daily (QD) over the course of seven days, and potent antiviral activity was observed. In non-cirrhotic HCV-infected patients who were given 600 mg QD of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1), the mean maximum HCV RNA reduction was 4.4 log10 IU/mL in HCV GT1-infected patients and 4.6 log10 IU/mL in HCV GT3-infected patients. The effect of Compound 1-A on antiviral reduction also extended to the difficult-to-treat cirrhotic patients. In a cohort of HCV GT1 or HCV GT3-infected patients with CPA cirrhosis, the mean maximum HCV RNA reduction was 4.4 log10 IU/mL when administered QD for seven days (Zhou, X. et al. “AT-527, a pan-genotypic purine nucleotide prodrug, exhibits potent antiviral activity in subjects with chronic hepatitis C” presented at The International Liver Congress 2018; April 13, 2018; Paris, France). Figures 25-31 depict Compound 1 metabolite and HCV viral RNA levels in cirrhotic patients who were administered Compound 1. Figure 27 highlights that Compound 1 is equally effective in cirrhotic patients as it is in non- cirrhotic patients. Unless otherwise specified, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example, Compound 1-A, is provided in the β-D-configuration. In an alternative embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, can be provided in a β-L-configuration. The phosphoramidate of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, can be provided as an R or S chiral phosphorus derivative or a mixture thereof, including a racemic or a diastereomeric mixture. All of the combinations of these stereoconfigurations are alternative embodiments in the invention described herein. These alternative configurations include, but are not limited to: An additional alternative configuration includes . In one embodiment, ceutically acceptable salt thereof is used as Compound 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in any aspect of the present invention herein. In another embodiment any one of the above stereoisomers or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is used as Compound 1-A in any aspect of the present invention herein. In an alternative embodiment, Compound 1-A is provided as the hemisulfate salt of a phosphoramidate other than the specific phosphoramidate described in the compound illustration. In another alternative embodiment, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is provided as a phosphoramidate other than the specific phosphoramidate described in the compound illustration. A wide range of phosphoramidates are known to those skilled in the art which can be selected as desired to provide an active compound as described herein. For example, the phosphoramidate of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof includes a compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof of Formula A: wherein: R 7 is hydrogen, C 1 - 6 alkyl (including methyl, ethyl, propyl, and isopropyl), C 3 - 7 cycloalkyl, or aryl (including phenyl and napthyl); R 8 is hydrogen or C1-6alkyl (including methyl, ethyl, propyl, and isopropyl); R 9a and R 9b are independently selected from hydrogen, C 1 - 6 alkyl (including methyl, ethyl, propyl, and isopropyl), or C3-7cycloalkyl; and R 10 is hydrogen, C1-6alkyl (including methyl, ethyl, propyl, and isopropyl), C1-6haloalkyl, or C 3 - 7 cycloalkyl. In alternative non-limiting embodiments, the present invention includes Compound 1 as an oxalate salt (Compound 1-B), an HCl salt (Compound 1-C), or a sulfate salt (Compound 1-D). monophosphate and the subsequent anabolism of the N 6 -methyl-2,6-diaminopurine base (1-3) to generate ((2R,3R,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-oxo-1,6-dihydro-9H-purin-9-yl)-4 -fluoro-3-hydroxy-4- methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methyl dihydrogen phosphate (1-4) as the 5’-monophosphate. The monophosphate is then further anabolized to the active triphosphate species: the 5’-triphosphate (1-6). The 5’-triphosphate can be further metabolized to generate 2-amino-9-((2R,3R,4R,5R)-3- fluoro-4-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methyltetrahydrofuran-2 -yl)-1,9-dihydro-6H-purin-6-one (1-7). Figures 17-24 depict the pharmacokinetic properties of Compound 1-A and major metabolites. Although Compound 1-A is metabolized within 8 hours, active metabolites are present for up to 24 hours. During the 24 hour period in which the metabolites are present, a suppression of HCV viral RNA is observed. At doses of 300 mg, the plasma concentrations of Compound 1-A metabolites are higher than the EC95 of HCV GT1b. Figure 16 depicts the advantageous biodistribution properties of Compound 1-A. The compound concentrates in the liver, the target organ for HCV infection, over the heart. Because the liver concentration is high, a lower dose may be used. The effect is not species specific and was observed in three different preclinical species. Figure 24 shows a comparison of the EC95 for Compound 1 and sofosbuvir against various HCV genotypes. Sofosbuvir has variable EC95s based on the genotype, the EC95 for Compound 1 has little variation based on genotype. Alternatively, 5’-monophophate 1-2 can be metabolized to generate the purine base 1-8.

Non-limiting examples of synthetic methods that can be used to synthesize Compound 2 include those shown in Example 29 and reported in WO 2016/196932 assigned to Merck. Definitions The term "D-configuration" as used in the context of the present invention refers to the principle configuration which mimics the natural configuration of sugar moieties as opposed to the unnatural occurring nucleosides or "L" configuration. The term "β" or "β anomer" is used with reference to nucleoside analogs in which the nucleoside base is configured (disposed) above the plane of the furanose moiety in the nucleoside analog. The terms "coadminister" and "coadministration" or combination therapy are used to describe the administration of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof according to the present invention in combination with Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In certain embodiments, Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are administered with at least one other active agent, for example where appropriate at least one additional anti-HCV agent. The timing of the coadministration is best determined by the medical specialist treating the patient. It is sometimes preferred that the agents be administered at the same time or at least in a manner that allows for an overlapping pharmacologic effect of the two drugs in the treated patient. Alternatively, the drugs selected for combination therapy may be administered at different times to the patient. Of course, when more than one viral or other infection or other condition is present, the present compounds may be combined with other agents to treat that other infection or condition as required. The term "host", as used herein, refers to a unicellular or multicellular organism in which a HCV virus can replicate, including cell lines and animals, and typically a human. The term host specifically refers to infected cells, cells transfected with all or part of a HCV genome, and animals, in particular, primates (including chimpanzees) and humans which bear the HCV genome or a part thereof capable of treatment with the combination described herein. In most animal applications of the present invention, the host is a human patient which includes, but is not limited to a dosage regime with overlapping pharmacokinetics. Veterinary applications, in certain indications, however, are clearly anticipated by the present invention (such as chimpanzees). The host can be for example, bovine, equine, avian, canine, feline, etc., which is capable of hosting the virus. A “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” is a derivative of the disclosed compound in which the parent compound is modified to an inorganic and organic, acid or base addition salt thereof without undue toxicity. The salts of the present compounds can be synthesized from the parent compound with a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting free acid forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base (such as Na, Ca, Mg, or K hydroxide, carbonate, bicarbonate, or the like), or by reacting free base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate acid. Such reactions are typically carried out in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two. Generally, non-aqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are typical, where practicable. Salts of the present compounds may optionally be provided in the form of a solvate. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional salts and the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from inorganic or organic acids that are not unduly toxic. For example, conventional acid salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, nitric and the like; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, mesylic, esylic, besylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, isethionic, HOOC-(CH2)n- COOH where n is 0-4, and the like, or using a different acid that produces the same counterion. Lists of additional suitable salts may be found, e.g., in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., p.1418 (1985). The compound can be delivered in any molar ratio that delivers the desired result. For example, the compound can be provided with less than a molar equivalent of a counter ion, such as in the form of a hemi-sulfate salt. Alternatively, the compound can be provided with more than molar equivalent of counter ion, such as in the form of a di-sulfate salt. Non-limiting examples of molar ratios of the compound to the counter ion include 1 : 0.25, 1 : 0.5, 1 : 1, and 1 : 2. Isotopic Substitution The present invention includes combinations of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein one or both of the compounds has desired isotopic substitutions of atoms at amounts above the natural abundance of the isotope, i.e., enriched. Isotopes are atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers, i.e., the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. By way of general example and without limitation, isotopes of hydrogen, for example, deuterium ( 2 H) and tritium ( 3 H) may be used anywhere in described structures. Alternatively or in addition, isotopes of carbon, e.g., 13 C and 14 C, may be used. A preferred isotopic substitution is deuterium for hydrogen at one or more locations on the molecule to improve the performance of the drug. The deuterium can be bound in a location of bond breakage during metabolism (an α-deuterium kinetic isotope effect) or next to or near the site of bond breakage (a β-deuterium kinetic isotope effect). Achillion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (WO/2014/169278 and WO/2014/169280) describes deuteration of nucleotides to improve their pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic, including at the 5-position of the molecule. Substitution with isotopes such as deuterium can afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, such as, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements. Substitution of deuterium for hydrogen at a site of metabolic break- down can reduce the rate of or eliminate the metabolism at that bond. At any position of the compound that a hydrogen atom may be present, the hydrogen atom can be any isotope of hydrogen, including protium ( 1 H), deuterium ( 2 H) and tritium ( 3 H). Thus, reference herein to a compound encompasses all potential isotopic forms unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term "isotopically-labeled" analog refers to an analog that is a "deuterated analog", a " 13 C-labeled analog," or a "deuterated/ 13 C-labeled analog." The term "deuterated analog" means a compound described herein, whereby a H-isotope, i.e., hydrogen/protium ( 1 H), is substituted by a H-isotope, i.e., deuterium ( 2 H). Deuterium substitution can be partial or complete. Partial deuterium substitution means that at least one hydrogen is substituted by at least one deuterium. In certain embodiments, the isotope is 90, 95 or 99% or more enriched in an isotope at any location of interest. In some embodiments it is deuterium that is 90, 95 or 99% enriched at a desired location. Unless indicated to the contrary, the deuteration is at least 80% at the selected location. Deuteration of the nucleoside can occur at any replaceable hydrogen that provides the desired results. Methods of Treatment Treatment, as used herein, refers to the administration of the combination of the present invention in an effective amount to a host, for example a human that is or may become infected with an HCV virus. In one embodiment the method of treatment comprises administration of an effective amount of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a host, for example a human that is or may become infected with a HCV virus. In another embodiment the method of treatment comprises administration of Compound 1-A and Compound 2 to a host, for example a human that is or may become infected with a HCV virus. The term “prophylactic” or preventative, when used, refers to the administration of a combination of the present invention to prevent or reduce the likelihood of an occurrence of the viral disorder. The present invention includes in an alternative embodiment, treatment and prophylactic or preventative therapies. In one embodiment, the combination is administered to a host who has been exposed to and thus is at risk of infection by a hepatitis C virus infection. The invention includes a method of treatment of a hepatitis C virus, by administering an effective amount of the synergistic combination of Compound 1 (such as 1-A) and Compound 2 including drug resistant and multidrug resistant forms of HCV and related disease states, conditions, or complications of an HCV infection, including cirrhosis and related hepatotoxicities, as well as other conditions that are secondary to an HCV infection, such as weakness, loss of appetite, weight loss, breast enlargement (especially in men), rash (especially on the palms), difficulty with clotting of blood, spider-like blood vessels on the skin, confusion, coma (encephalopathy), buildup of fluid in the abdominal cavity (ascites), esophageal varices, portal hypertension, kidney failure, enlarged spleen, decrease in blood cells, anemia, thrombocytopenia, jaundice, and hepatocellular cancer, among others. The method comprises administering to a host in need thereof, typically a human, an effective amount of the combination described herein, optionally in combination with at least one additional bioactive agent, for example, an additional anti-HCV agent, further optionally in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier additive and/or excipient. In another embodiment the method comprises administering to a patient at risk of an HCV infection, an effective amount of a combination of the present invention. In another embodiment the combination as described above is used with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive, or excipient, optionally in combination with a third anti-HCV agent. In another embodiment, the combination of the present invention can be administered to a patient after a hepatitis-related liver transplantation to protect the new organ. The combination therapy and dosage forms can also be used to treat conditions related to or occurring as a result of an HCV viral exposure. For example, the active compound can be used to treat HCV antibody-positive and HCV antigen-positive conditions, viral-based chronic liver inflammation, liver cancer resulting from advanced hepatitis C (e.g., hepatocellular carcinoma), cirrhosis, acute hepatitis C, fulminant hepatitis C, chronic persistent hepatitis C, and anti-HCV- based fatigue. The combination can also be used prophylactically to prevent or restrict the progression of clinical illness in individuals who are anti-HCV antibody- or antigen-positive or who have been exposed to hepatitis C. Pharmaceutical Compositions and Dosage Forms Administration of Compound 1 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be carried out using any desired form, including but not limited to oral, topical, parenteral, intramuscular, intravenous, sub-cutaneous, transdermal (which may include a penetration enhancement agent), buccal, and suppository administration, among other routes of administration. In one embodiment, the active compound or combination of compounds are provided in solid dosage forms which are well known in the art and described further below. Enteric coated oral tablets may also be used to enhance bioavailability of the compounds for an oral route of administration. The most effective dosage form will depend upon the bioavailability/pharmacokinetic of the particular agents chosen as well as the severity of disease in the patient. Oral dosage forms are particularly preferred, because of ease of administration and prospective favorable patient compliance. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention comprise an anti-HCV virus effective amount of each separately or a combined form of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as described herein, optionally in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, additive, or excipient, further optionally in combination or alternation with at least one other active compound. In one embodiment, the combination includes a solid dosage form of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example, Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. This pharmaceutical composition may contain both Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or alternatively the compounds may be in separate dosage forms that are administered in a manner that the host receives the benefit of both compounds in a concerted fashion as measured by standard pharmacokinetics. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that a therapeutically effective amount will vary with the infection or condition to be treated, its severity, the treatment regimen to be employed, the pharmacokinetic of the agent used, as well as the patient or subject (animal or human) to be treated, and such therapeutic amount can be determined by the attending physician or specialist. Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can be formulated as one or more mixtures with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. In general, it is preferable to administer the one or more pharmaceutical composition in orally-administrable form, and in particular, one or more solid dosage forms such as a pill or tablet. Certain formulations may be administered via a parenteral, intravenous, intramuscular, topical, transdermal, buccal, subcutaneous, suppository, or other route, including intranasal spray. Intravenous and intramuscular formulations are often administered in sterile saline. One of ordinary skill in the art may modify the formulations to render them more soluble in water or another vehicle, for example, this can be easily accomplished by minor modifications (salt formulation, esterification, etc.) that are well within the ordinary skill in the art. It is also well within the routineers’ skill to modify the route of administration and dosage regimen of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in order to manage the pharmacokinetic of the present compounds for maximum beneficial effect in patients. In certain pharmaceutical dosage forms, the prodrug form of the compounds, including acylated (acetylated or other), and ether (alkyl and related) derivatives, phosphate esters, thiophosphoramidates, phosphoramidates, and various salt forms of the present compounds, may be used to achieve the desired effect. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize how to readily modify the present compounds to prodrug forms to facilitate delivery of active compounds to a targeted site within the host organism or patient. The person of ordinary skill in the art also will take advantage of favorable pharmacokinetic parameters of the prodrug forms, where applicable, in delivering the present compounds to a targeted site within the host organism or patient to maximize the intended effect of the compound. Amounts mentioned in this disclosure typically refer to the free form (i.e., non-salt, hydrate or solvate form). The typically values described herein represent free-form equivalents, i.e., quantities as if the free form would be administered. If salts are administered the amounts need to be calculated in function of the molecular weight ratio between the salt and the free form. The amount of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof included within the therapeutically active formulation according to the present invention is an effective amount to achieve the desired outcome according to the present invention, for example, for treating the HCV infection, reducing the likelihood of a HCV infection or the inhibition, reduction, and/or abolition of HCV or its secondary effects, including disease states, conditions, and/or complications which occur secondary to HCV. In general, a therapeutically effective amount of the present compounds in a pharmaceutical dosage form may range, for example, from about 0.001 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg per day or more. Compound 1 or Compound 1-A may for example be administered in amounts ranging from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 15 mg/kg per day of the patient, depending upon the pharmacokinetics of the agent in the patient.

For purposes of the present invention, a prophylactically or preventive effective amount of the compositions according to the present invention falls within the same concentration range as set forth above for therapeutically effective amount and is usually the same as a therapeutically effective amount. To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention, a therapeutically effective amount of Compound 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example Compound 1-A, and Compound 2 or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof may be intimately admixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques to produce a dose. A carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration, e.g., oral or parenteral. In preparing pharmaceutical compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be used. Thus, for liquid oral preparations such as suspensions, elixirs, and solutions, suitable carriers and additives including water, glycols, oils, alcohols, flavoring agents, preservatives, coloring agents, and the like may be used. For solid oral preparations such as powders, tablets, capsules, and for solid preparations such as suppositories, suitable carriers and additives including starches, sugar carriers, such as dextrose, manifold, lactose, and related carriers, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents, and the like may be used. If desired, the tablets or capsules may be enteric-coated or sustained release by standard techniques. The use of these dosage forms may significantly enhance the bioavailability of the compounds in the patient. For parenteral formulations, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water or aqueous sodium chloride solution, though other ingredients, including those which aid dispersion, also may be included. Of course, where sterile water is to be used and maintained as sterile, the compositions and carriers must also be sterilized. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared, in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents, and the like may be employed. Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to viral antigens) may also be prepared by conventional methods to produce pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. This may be appropriate for the delivery of free nucleosides, acyl/alkyl nucleosides or phosphate ester pro-drug forms of the nucleoside compounds according to the present invention.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other cellulosic polymers, including other alkyl cellulosic polymers, can be substituted for part or all of the ethylcellulose. Other suitable materials that can be used to prepare a functional coating include hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS); cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP); a polyvinylacetate phthalate; neutral or synthetic waxes, fatty alcohols (such as lauryl, myristyl, stearyl, cetyl or specifically cetostearyl alcohol), fatty acids, including fatty acid esters, fatty acid glycerides (mono-, di-, and tri-glycerides), hydrogenated fats, hydrocarbons, normal waxes, stearic acid, stearyl alcohol, hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials having hydrocarbon backbones, or a combination thereof. Suitable waxes include beeswax, glycowax, castor wax, carnauba wax, microcrystalline wax, candelilla, and wax-like substances, e.g., material normally solid at room temperature and having a melting point of from about 30ºC to about 100ºC, or a combination thereof. In other embodiments, a functional coating may include digestible, long chain (e.g., C8- C50, specifically C12-C40), substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbons, such as fatty acids, fatty alcohols, glyceryl esters of fatty acids, mineral and vegetable oils, waxes, or a combination thereof. Hydrocarbons having a melting point of between about 25 ºC and about 90 ºC may be used. Specifically, long chain hydrocarbon materials, fatty (aliphatic) alcohols can be used. The coatings can optionally contain additional pharmaceutically acceptable excipients such as a plasticizer, a stabilizer, a water-soluble component (e.g., pore formers), an anti-tacking agent (e.g., talc), a surfactant, and the like, or a combination thereof. A functional coating may include a release-modifying agent, which affects the release properties of the functional coating. The release-modifying agent can, for example, function as a pore-former or a matrix disrupter. The release-modifying agent can be organic or inorganic, and include materials that can be dissolved, extracted or leached from the coating in the environment of use. The release-modifying agent can comprise one or more hydrophilic polymers including cellulose ethers and other cellulosics, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, methyl cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate phthalate; povidone; polyvinyl alcohol; an acrylic polymer, such as gastric soluble Eudragit FS 30D, pH sensitive Eudragit L30D 55, L 100, S 100, or L 100- 55; or a combination thereof. Other exemplary release-modifying agents include a povidone; a saccharide (e.g., lactose, and the like); a metal stearate; an inorganic salt (e.g., dibasic calcium phosphate, sodium chloride, and the like); a polyethylene glycol (e.g., polyethylene glycol (PEG) 1450, and the like); a sugar alcohol (e.g., sorbitol, mannitol, and the like); an alkali alkyl sulfate (e.g., sodium lauryl sulfate); a polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester (e.g., polysorbate); or a combination thereof. Exemplary matrix disrupters include water insoluble organic or inorganic material. Organic polymers including but not limited to cellulose, cellulose ethers such as ethylcellulose, cellulose esters such as cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate and cellulose acetate propionate; and starch can function as matrix disrupters. Examples or inorganic disrupters include many calcium salts such as mono-, di- and tri calcium phosphate; silica and, talc. The coating may optionally contain a plasticizer to improve the physical properties of the coating. For example, because ethylcellulose has a relatively high glass transition temperature and does not form flexible films under normal coating conditions, it may be advantageous to add plasticizer to the ethylcellulose before using the same as a coating material. Generally, the amount of plasticizer included in a coating solution is based on the concentration of the polymer, e.g., can be from about 1% to about 200% depending on the polymer but is most often from about 1 wt% to about 100 wt% of the polymer. Concentrations of the plasticizer, however, can be determined by routine experimentation. Examples of plasticizers for ethylcellulose and other celluloses include plasticizers such as dibutyl sebacate, diethyl phthalate, triethyl citrate, tributyl citrate, triacetin, or a combination thereof, although it is possible that other water-insoluble plasticizers (such as acetylated monoglycerides, phthalate esters, castor oil, etc.) can be used. Examples of plasticizers for acrylic polymers include citric acid esters such as triethyl citrate NF, tributyl citrate, dibutyl phthalate, 1,2-propylene glycol, polyethylene glycols, propylene glycol, diethyl phthalate, castor oil, triacetin, or a combination thereof, although it is possible that other plasticizers (such as acetylated monoglycerides, phthalate esters, castor oil, etc.) can be used. Suitable methods can be used to apply the coating material to the surface of the dosage form cores. Processes such as simple or complex coacervation, interfacial polymerization, liquid drying, thermal and ionic gelation, spray drying, spray chilling, fluidized bed coating, pan coating, or electrostatic deposition may be used. In certain embodiments, an optional intermediate coating is used between the dosage form core and an exterior coating. Such an intermediate coating can be used to protect the active agent or other component of the core subunit from the material used in the exterior coating or to provide other properties. Exemplary intermediate coatings typically include water-soluble film forming polymers. Such intermediate coatings may include film forming polymers such as hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, polyethylene glycol, polyethylene oxide, and the like, or a combination thereof; and a plasticizer. Plasticizers can be used to reduce brittleness and increase tensile strength and elasticity. Exemplary plasticizers include polyethylene glycol propylene glycol and glycerin. Combination and Alternation Therapy Drug resistance sometimes occurs by mutation of a gene that encodes for an enzyme used in viral replication. The efficacy of a combination therapy against an HCV infection, can be prolonged, augmented, or restored by adding an additional compound to the combination therapy. This further combined therapy may be administered together or in alternation with another, and perhaps even two or three other, antiviral compounds that induce a different mutation or act through a different pathway, from that of the principle combination. Alternatively, the pharmacokinetic, bio-distribution, half-life, or other parameter of the combination can be altered by such combination therapy (which may include alternation therapy if considered concerted). This invention already provides an advantageous combination therapy for the treatment of HCV, or a disorder associated with an HCV infection, by administering a selected NS5B inhibitor with an NS5A inhibitor. Additional therapeutic effects may be achieved by adding a third, fourth, or even fifth active agent either co-formulated or provided separately.

FIG.4A is the XRPD after 14 days at 25 °C / 60% (RH). Amorphous Compound 1 (sample 1-1) remained poorly crystalline, whereas crystalline Compound 1 (sample 1-2) retained its crystallinity, but both compounds were stable after 14 days at 25 °C / 60% (RH). Example 3. Formation of Oxalate Salt Compound 1-B Initially, the oxalate salt of Compound 1, Compound 1-B, was formed by mixing the oxalic salt with solvent (5 vol, 100 μL) and allowing any solution to evaporate at room temperature. Any suspension was matured (room temperature – 50 °C) for 3 hours and crystallinity was accessed. Table 4 shows the different solvents used in the production of Compound 1-B. All solvents except for two (cyclohexane and n-heptane) afforded crystalline products. Despite the high crystallinity and solubility of Compound 1-B, oxalate salts are not acceptable for clinical development due to the potential formation of kidney stones and other salts of compound 1 were explored. Table 4. Formation of Oxalate Compound 1-B S olvent Observation post acid addition at room Observation after Example 4. Salt Compounds of Amorphous Compound 1 Since the oxalate salt Compound 1-B (Example 3) could not be carried forward in clinical trials due to its potential to form kidney stones, amorphous salts of Compound 1 were formed with the counter ions listed in Table 5. Compound 1 was dissolved in t-butanol (20 vol, 6 ml) and the solution was treated with the acid counter-ions (1 equivalent for each sample except sample 1-9 which had 0.5 equivalent of sulfate). The samples were then frozen with the solvent removed by lyophilization. The residual solid in samples 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, 1-7, 1-8, and 1-9 was initially analyzed by XRPD and HPLC. Table 5.

The samples were then subjected to storage at 25 °C / 60% relative humidity (RH) for 14 days with analysis by HPLC and XRPD after 7 (FIG. 4B) and 14 days (FIG. 5A). All prepared salts remained amorphous and the observations are shown in Table 6. The mono sulfate (sample 1-5) and succinate salts (sample 1-8) were found to be physically unstable and deliquesced or became a gum during the course of the study. Both the fumarate (sample 1-6) and benzoate salts (sample 1-7) were found to be glassy solids. The HCl salt (sample 1-4) was found to retain its physical appearance. Surprisingly, the hemi-sulfate salt (sample 1-9) also retained its physical appearance as a white solid in contrast to mono-sulfate compound (sample 1-5), which was a sticky gum. Results are shown in Table 6. The mono HCl salt (sample 1-4) and the hemi-sulfate salt (sample 1-9) were found to be physically and chemically stable after 2 weeks storage at 25 °C / 60% relative humidity (RH). Although both salts were stable over the two weeks, the hemi-sulfate salt was superior to the HCl salt because the HCl salt was hygroscopic, rendering it less useful compared to the hemi-sulfate salt for long-term storage or use.

Crystallization of Amorphous Compound 1-A Since the hemi-sulfate salt was found to remain as a solid after the 14-day stability study as shown in Table 6, preliminary tests studying crystallization conditions using 11 different solvents was conducted. Amorphous Compound 1-A was suspended in 5 volumes of solvent at 25 °C (sample 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, 2-8, 2-9, 2-10, and 2-11). To those samples that were not free flowing (2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, 2-8, and 2-10), an additional 5 volumes of solvent was added. The samples were then matured at 25 – 50 °C (1 °C/min between temperatures and 4 hour at each temperature) for 6 days except for sample 2-1, which was observed to be a clear solution after 1 day and was allowed to evaporate under ambient conditions. The results are shown in Table 9. Crystalline patterns resulted from crystallization with isobutanol (sample 2-1), acetone (sample 2-2), EtOAc (sample 2-6), and iPrOAc (sample 2-7). Two poorly crystalline samples were also identified from crystallization with MEK (sample 2-4) and MIBK (sample 2-5). The XRPD patterns are shown in FIG.7A. Table 9.

Failure to Crystallize Amorphous Malonate Salt (Compound 1-B) As shown in Example 3, a crystalline oxalate salt was identified when determining appropriate salts for Compound 1, but oxalate salt Compound 1-B could not be carried forward in clinical trials due to its potential for causing kidney stones. Therefore, crystallization of the chemically related malonate salt (Compound 1-E) was attempted using the same 11 solvents as for the hemi-sulfate salt. Compound 1 (12 × 50 mg, samples 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, 3-7, 3- 8, 3-9, 3-10, 3-11, and 3-12) was dissolved in t-butanol (20 vol) and the solutions were then treated with 1 equivalence of a malonic acid stock solution (1 M in THF). The samples were then frozen with the solvent removed by lyophilisation. To samples 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, 3-7, 3-8, 3-9, 3-10, and 3-11, relevant solvent (5 volumes) was added at room temperature. Any resulting solutions were allowed to evaporate under ambient conditions, while gums or solids were matured at 25 – 50 °C (1 °C/min between temperatures and 4 hour at each temperature) for 5 days. The solids were analyzed by XRPD (FIG. 12B), but all samples were found to either form a gum or were amorphous (FIG. 12B). Results are shown in Table 11. The one solid (amorphous) sample (3-12) was analyzed by 1H-NMR and HPLC, and was found to contain around 1 equivalents of malonic acid (peaks overlap) as well as 0.6 eq. t-BuOH. The compound was 99.2% pure (FIG.13A). FIG.12A is an XRDP of sample 3-12 and FIG.13A is the HPLC chromatograph of sample 3-12.

Failure of Adequate Salt Formation using Liquid Assisted Grinding (LAG) A liquid assisted grinding (LAG) study to determine appropriate salts other than hemi- sulfate was performed using the 14 acidic counter ions in Table 12. Table 12. Counter-ion stock solutions used in LAG Crystallization Counter-ion Solvent (1 M) Pamoic DMSO Compound 1 (30 mg) was placed in HPLC vials with two 3 mm ball bearings. The materials were wetted with solvent (15 µl ethanol, sample 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, 4-6, 4-7, 4-8, 4-9, 4-10, 4-11, 4-12, 4-13, and 4-14) and 1 equivalence of the acid counter-ion was added. The samples were then ground for 2 hours at 650 rpm using a Fritsch milling system with an Automaxion adapter. Most of the samples after grinding were found to be clear gums and were not analyzed further (Table 13). Those that were observed to contain solid were analyzed by XRPD and, in all cases, the patterns obtained were found to match those of the crystalline acid counter ion with no additional peaks (FIG.13B). Table 13. Observations and XRPD Results from LAG of Compounds 1 Sample Acid Observation after grinding XRPD ID Example 9. Failure to Obtain Adequate Salt Formation using Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) was next utilized as a solvent to study appropriate salts other than the hemi-sulfate salt. Using the 14 acidic counter ions in Table 12, the study was performed by dissolving Compound 1 (50 mg) in MEK (20 vol) at room temperature. The solutions were treated with 1 equivalence of the selected counter-ions (Table 12). The samples were then cooled down to 5 °C at 0.1 °C/min and stirred at this temperature overnight. All samples were allowed to evaporate under ambient conditions and any solids observed were analyzed by XRPD. This evaporation mainly produced gums, with the exception of the samples with steric acid (sample 4-12) and palmitic acid (sample 5-13), which afforded glassy solvents. These solids were amorphous by XRPD, but no crystalline forms of the salt were obtained. Results are shown in Table 14. Table 14. Results from dissolving Compound 1 in MEK (20 volumes) Sample Acid Solvent Observation Observation Observation ID for acid at upon acid upon coolin upon p w y y g v p u p p u p u Since all samples were amorphous, all samples were redissolved in MEK (5 vol) and cyclohexane was added (20 vol antisolvent) at room temperature followed by 1 hour of stirring at 25 °C. The samples were then matured between 50 – 5 °C (1 °C/min between temperatures, 4 hours at each temperature) for 2 days before the cycle was changed to 50 - 25 °C for a further 4 days. The samples were observed by eye following maturation. Results are shown in Table 15. Following the maturation, all samples except 5-1 (with pamoic acid) were found to be gums. Sample 5-1, a yellow solid, was analyzed by XRPD, and the pattern was found to match the known form of pamoic acid (FIG. 14B), and therefore no crystalline forms of the salt were obtained. Table 15.

Failure to Obtain Adequate Salt Formation using Ethyl Acetate Ethyl acetate was next utilized to study appropriate salts other than hemi-sulfate salt. Utilizing the 14 acidic counter ions in Table 12, the study was performed by dissolving Compound 1 (50 mg) in ethyl acetate (20 vol) at 50 °C. The solutions were treated with 1 equivalent of the selected counter-ions (Table 12). The samples were then cooled down to 5 °C at 0.1 °C/min and stirred at this temperature for 4 days. The solutions were allowed to evaporate under ambient conditions while any solids were analyzed by XRPD. The results from the crystallizations using ethyl acetate are in Table 16. In contrast to Example 8 where MEK was the solvent, the majority of samples were observed to be suspensions following cooling of the acid:compound mixture (those that were solutions were allowed to evaporate under ambient conditions). However, the XRPD diffractograms were generally found to match crystalline Compound 1. Samples 6-2, 6-4, and 6-5 have some slight differences (FIG.14A and FIG.15A). No crystalline forms of the salt were obtained. Table 16.

Chemical Purity Determination by HPLC Purity analysis in Example 2 and Example 4 was performed on an Agilent HP1100 series system equipped with a diode array detector and using ChemStation software vB.04.03 using the method shown in Table 17. Table 17. HPLC method for chemical purity determinations Parameter Value Example 12. X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) Techniques The XRPD patterns in Examples 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 were collected on a PANalytical Empyrean diffractometer using Cu Kα radiation (45 kV, 40 mA) in transmission geometry. A 0.5° slit, 4 mm mask and 0.4 rad Soller slits with a focusing mirror were used on the incident beam. A PIXcel3D detector, placed on the diffracted beam, was fitted with a receiving slit and 0.04 rad Soller slits. The instrument is performance checked using silicon powder on a weekly basis. The software used for data collection was X’Pert Data Collector v.5.3 and the data were analyzed and presented using Diffrac Plus EVA v.15.0.0.0 or Highscore Plus v.4.5. Samples were prepared and analyzed in either a metal or Millipore 96 well-plate in transmission mode. X-ray transparent film was used between the metal sheets on the metal well-plate and powders (approximately 1-2 mg) were used as received. The Millipore plate was used to isolate and analyze solids from suspensions by adding a small amount of suspension directly to the plate before filtration under a light vacuum. The scan mode for the metal plate used the gonio scan axis, whereas a 2θ scan was utilized for the Millipore plate. A performance check was carried out using silicon powder (metal well- plate). The details of the data collection were an angular range of 2.5 to 32.0° 2θ, a step size of 0.0130° 2θ, and a total collection time of 2.07 minutes. Samples were also collected on a Bruker D8 diffractometer using Cu Kα radiation (40 kV, 40 mA), θ - 2θ goniometer, and divergence of V4 and receiving slits, a Ge monochromator and a Lynxeye detector. The instrument is performance checked using a certified Corundum standard (NIST 1976). The software used for data collection was DiffracPlus XRD Commander v2.6.1 and the data were analyzed and presented using Diffrac Plus EVA v15.0.0.0. Samples were run under ambient conditions as flat plate specimens using powder as received. The sample was gently packed into a cavity cut into polished, zero-background (510) silicon wafer. The sample was rotated in its own plane during analysis. The details of the data collection were an angular range of 2 to 42° 2θ, a step size of 0.05° 2θ, and collection time of 0.5 s/step. Example 13. Synthesis of Amorphous Compound 1-A A 250 mL flask was charged with MeOH (151 mL) and the solution was cooled to 0-5 °C. A concentrated solution of H 2 SO 4 was added dropwise over 10 minutes. A separate flask was charged with Compound 1 (151 g) and acetone (910 mL), and the H 2 SO 4 /MeOH solution was added dropwise at 25-30 °C over 2.5 hours. A large amount of solid was precipitated. After the solution was stirred for 12-15 hours at 25-30 °C, the mixture was filtered, washed with MeOH/acetone (25 mL/150 mL), and dried at 55-60 °C in vacuum to afford Compound 1-A (121 g, 74%). 1 HNMR: (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 8.41 (br, 1H), 7.97 (s, 1H), 7.36 (t, J = 8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.22 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2H ), 7.17 (t, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.73 (s, 2H), 6.07 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.00 (dd, J = 12.0, 8.0 Hz, 1H), 5.81(br, 1H), 4.84-4.73 (m, 1H), 4.44-4.28 (m, 3H), 4.10 (t, J = 8.0 Hz, 2H), 3.85-3.74 (m, 1H), 2.95 (s, 3H), 1.21 (s, J = 4.0 Hz, 3H), 1.15-1.10 (m, 9H). Analytic Method for Compound 1-A: The purity of Compound 1-A was obtained using an Agilent 1100 HPLC system with a Waters XTerra Phenyl 5 ^m 4.6*250mm column with the following conditions: 1 mL/min flow rate, read at 254 nm, 30 °C column temperature, 10 μL injection volume, and a 30 minute run time. The sample was dissolved in ACN:water (90:10, v/v). The Gradient method for separation is shown below. R t (min) of Compound 1-A was approximately 12.0 minutes.

Characterization of Compound 1-A Compound 1-A was further characterized by eye, 1 HNMR, 13 CNMR, 19 FNMR, MS, HPLC, and XRPD (FIG. 15B). Residual solvent was measured by GC. Water content was measured by Karl Fischer Titration, and the water content was only 0.70%. Data is summarized in Table 18. Table 18. Summary of Additional Characterization Data of Compound 1-A Test Result Residual Solvent by GC Methanol – 57 ppm Example 15. Solubility of Compound 1 and Compound 1-A Compound 1 and Compound 1-A were both tested for solubility in biorelevant test medias, including simulated gastric fluid (SGF), fasted-state simulated gastric fluid (FaSSIF), and fed-state gastric fluid (FeSSIF). Results for Compound 1 are shown in Table 19 and results for Compound 1-A are shown in Table 20. Samples were stirred at room temperature (20 – 25 °C). Compound 1- A was more than 40-fold more soluble than Compound 1 in water at 2 hours and more than 25- fold more soluble at 24 hours. In SGF conditions, Compound 1-A had a solubility of 84.2 mg/mL at 24 hours compared to the solubility of 15.6 mg/mL of Compound 1 at the same time point. Compound 1-A was also more soluble at 2 hours in the SGF conditions than Compound 1, and soluble enough to allow for testing even after 48 hours while testing at 48 hours was not done with Compound 1.

Chemical Stability of Compound 1-A Compound 1-A was tested for chemical stability at 25 and 40 °C over a 6 month time period by monitoring organic purity, water content, 1 HNMR, DSC, and Raman IR. The container closure system for the study was a combination medicinal valve bag with a pharmaceutical laminated film over the pouch and desiccant silica gel between the two layers. Compound 1-A (1 g) was measured into each container. Bags were then stored at 25°C/60%RH (relative humidity) and 40°C/75%RH (relative humidity). Organic purity, water content, 1 HNMR, DSC and Raman were measured at Time 0, Month 1, Month 2, Month 3 and Month 6. The purity of Compound 1-A was obtained using a Shimadzu LC-20AD system with a Waters XTerra Phenyl, 5µm, 4.6x250mm column with the following conditions: 1 mL/min flow rate, read at 254 nm, 35 °C column temperature, and 10 μL injection volume. The sample was dissolved in acetonitrile – water (90:10) (v/v). The gradient method is shown below. Time (min) A% (ACN) B% (water) 0 90 10 The water content of Compound 1-A (250 mg) was determined by a water titration apparatus using the Karl Fischer titration method. Results are shown in Table 21 and Table 22. When Compound 1-A was stored for 6 months at 25 and 40 °C, the rate of degradation was minimal. At 3 months, Compound 1-A was 99.75% percent pure at the 25 °C conditions and 99.58% pure at the 40 °C conditions. At 6 months, Compound 1-A was still 99.74% pure at the 25 °C conditions and 99.30% pure at the 40 °C conditions. At 25 °C, the percent of degradation product increased from 0.03% at Day 0 to 0.08% after 6 months. At 40 °C, the percent of degradation product increased from 0.03% to 0.39%. Over the course of 6 months, the percent of water increased approximately 0.6% at 25 °C and increased approximately 0.7% at 40 °C. Characterization by 1 HNMR, Raman, and DSC of Compound 1-A at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months was the same as the characterization of Compound 1-A on day 0 at both temperature conditions (Table 22), highlighting the long-term stability of Compound 1-A. Table 21. Compound 1-A rate of degradation over 6 months at 25 and 40 °C Percent of Maximum Ti P P Month 2 1.9 99.63 0.15 0.12 Table 22. Characterization of Compound 1-A during degradation study Time 1 HNMR R DSC Additional chemical stability studies of Compound 1-A were measured to determine the impurity and water levels. Three conditions were tested: accelerated stability (40 + 2°C / 75 + 5% RH) over a 6-month time period, ambient stability (25 + 2°C / 60 + 5% RH) over a 9-month period, and stability under refrigerator conditions (5 + 3°C) over a 9-month time period. The results for accelerated stability, ambient stability, and refrigerator conditions are shown in Table 23, Table 24, and Table 25, respectively. Based on the results of these studies, Compound 1-A is very chemically stable. In the accelerated stability study (Table 23), at each time point (1 st month, 3 rd month, and 6 th month) where Compound 1-A was measured, the appearance of Compound 1-A was always a white solid and the IR matched the reference standard. After six months, the total related substance 1 impurities was only 0.08% and there was no detection of related substance 2 and isomers. Table 23. Accelerated Stability (40 + 2°C / 75 + 5% RH) of Compound 1-A Items Specification Testing time point 0 month 1 st month 3 rd month 6 th month In the ambient stability study where the appearance, IR, water and impurity levels were measured for nine months, the appearance of Compound 1-A was always a white solid and the IR always corresponded with the reference sample. The results (Table 24) highlight how chemically stable Compound 1-A is. After 9 months, the percentage of water in the sample was only 0.20% and the total related substance 1 impurities was only 0.02%. Similarly to the accelerated stability studies, related substance 2 and any isomers of Compound 1-A were not detected. Table 24. Ambient stability (25 + 2°C / 60 + 5% RH) of Compound 1-A Testing time point Item Specification 1 st h h The results of measuring the stability under refrigerator conditions are shown in Table 25. The only impurities detected even after 9 months were those from related substance 1 and water. The water content after 9 months was 0.32% and the total impurities of related substance 1 were only 0.01% of the sample. Compound 1-A is very chemically stable under refrigerator conditions.

Plasma Levels of Metabolites following single oral doses of Compound 1-A A single oral dose of Compound 1-A was administered to rats, dogs, and monkeys, and the plasma levels of certain metabolites shown in Scheme 1 were measured. The conversion of Compound 1-A to Compound 1 and metabolite 1-7 are shown in Table 26 and the results for metabolite 1-8 and metabolite 1-2 are shown in Table 27. In rats, low levels of Compound 1 exposure were observed, but high levels of metabolite 1-7, the nucleoside metabolite of the active triphosphate (metabolite 1-6), were observed. In monkeys, roughly dose- proportional exposures of Compound 1 were measured. In dogs, supra-proportional Compound 1 exposures, indicative of first-pass metabolic clearance in the liver, were measured. Throughout the study, significantly more vomiting in dogs (5/5 in high dose group) than in monkeys (1/5 in high dose group) was observed. Table 26.

Tissue Exposure of Active Triphosphate following Compound 1-A Oral Dose Heart and liver tissue levels of the active triphosphate (TP) of Compound 1-A (metabolite 1-6) were measured 4 hours after oral doses of Compound 1-A. Samples of liver and heart were obtained at 4 hours after a single dose of Compound 1-A, flash-frozen, homogenized and analyzed by LC-MS/MS for intracellular levels of the active TP. Tissue levels were measured in rats, dogs, and monkeys as shown in FIG.16A. High levels of the active TP were measured in the liver of all species tested. Relatively low levels of the active TP were measured in the hearts of dogs due to saturation of first-pass hepatic metabolism, and unquantifiable levels of TP were measured in rat and monkey hearts, indicative of liver-specific formation of the active TP. While not shown, compared to Compound 1 dosing, Compound 1-A dosing improved TP distribution. Example 19. Pharmacological Comparison of Compound 1 and Compound 1-A in Dogs A head-to-head comparison of dogs dosed with Compound 1 and Compound 1-A was conducted. The study measured plasma levels of Compound 1 and metabolite 1-7 (from Scheme 1) out to 4 hours after dosing with Compound 1 (25 mg/kg) and Compound 1-A (30 mg/kg) (Table 28), and the AUC(0-4hr) of metabolite 1-7 was twice as great with Compound 1-A compared to Compound 1. Dose-normalized exposures to Compound 1 and metabolite 1-7 are shown in Table 28. Values for AUC (0-4hr) for Compound 1, metabolite 1-7, and the sum of Compound 1 + metabolite 1-7 were greater after dosing with Compound 1-A. Table 28. Comparison of Plasma Levels following dosing with Compound 1 and Compound 1-A Dosed Compound Mean Dose-normalized AUC(0-4hr) a (μM*hr) for: Liver/heart ratio triphosphate concentrations indicate that dosing with Compound 1-A, as compared to Compound 1, increases the selective delivery of the triphosphate to the liver, as shown in Table 29. The AUC(0-4hr) of the active guanine metabolite (1-6) after administration of Compound 1 measured in the heart was 174 μM*hr, while the AUC(0-4hr) of the active guanine metabolite (1-6) after administration of Compound 1-A measured in the heart was 28 μM*hr. The liver/heart ratio for Compound 1-A was 20 compared to a liver/heart ratio of 3.1 for Compound 1. Table 29. Comparison of Liver and Heart Exposure following dosing with Compound 1 and Compound 1-A Dosed Compound Mean Dose-normalized AUC(0-4hr) a (μM*hr) for: bExtrapolated below the lower limit of quantitation of the calibration curve The effect of increased selectivity for the liver over the heart when Compound 1-A was administered compared to Compound 1 is also shown in FIG.16B. The heart and liver tissue levels of the active triphosphate following a dosage of Compound 1-A (30 mg/kg) were compared to the tissue levels of the active triphosphate following a dosage of Compound 1 (25 mg/kg). The concentration of the active TP was higher in the liver than the heart for both Compound 1 and Compound 1-A, but the active TP was more selective for the liver over the heart when Compound 1-A was dosed compared to Compound 1. Example 20. Plasma Profiles of Compound 1-A Metabolites in Rats and Monkeys Male Sprague-Dawley rats and cynomolgus monkeys (3 animals per dose group) were given single oral doses of Compound 1-A. Aliquots of plasma prepared from blood samples treated with Dichlorvos were analyzed by LC-MS/MS for concentrations of Compound 1 and metabolite 1-7 (the nucleoside metabolite of the active triphosphate of Compound 1-A shown in Scheme 1), and pharmacokinetic parameters were determined using WinNonlin. The results for a single 500 mg/kg dose in rats is shown in FIG.17 and the results for a single 30, 100, or 300 mg/kg dose in monkeys is shown in FIG.18. The results are also summarized in Table 30. High plasma levels of metabolite 1-7, the nucleoside metabolite of the active triphosphate (TP) of Compound 1-A, are indicative of formation of high levels of the TP, even in rats where very low plasma levels of parent nucleotide prodrug are observed due to the short half-life of Compound 1 in rat blood (<2 min). Persistent plasma levels of metabolite 1-7 reflect the long half- life of the TP. In monkeys, plasma exposures (AUC) of Compound 1 were roughly dose-proportional, while metabolite 1-7 exposures were somewhat less than dose-proportional, although AUC values for both parent drug and the nucleoside metabolite of the active TP continue to increase up to the highest dose tested (300 mg/kg). Oral administration of Compound 1-A in rats and monkeys produced high and dose- dependent plasma exposures to metabolite 1-7 (the nucleoside metabolite of the intracellular active triphosphate of Compound 1-A); metabolite 1-7 exposures continued to increase up to the highest dose tested, reflecting substantial formation of the active TP in these species. Table 30. Plasma levels of Compounds 1 and 1-7 after single oral dose of Compound 1-A Species Rat a Monkey b Example 21. The Effect of the Active Triphosphate of Compound 1 and Compound 1-A on Mitochondrial Integrity The relative efficiency of incorporation of the active triphosphate (TP) of Compound 1 and Compound 1-A, metabolite 1-6 (Scheme 1), by human mitochondrial RNA polymerase was compared to the relative efficiency of the active TP of sofosbuvir and the active TP of INX-189. Compound 1 and Compound 1-A are not likely to affect mitochondrial integrity since their active triphosphate is poorly incorporated by human mitochondrial RNA polymerase with an efficiency similar to that of the triphosphate of sofosbuvir; the relative efficiency of incorporation of the triphosphate of INX-189 was up to 55-fold greater. Results are shown in Table 31. The incorporation of these analogs by human mitochondrial RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (POLRMT) were determined according to Arnold et al. (Sensitivity of Mitochondrial Transcription and Resistance of RNA Polymerase II Dependent Nuclear Transcription to Antiviral Ribonucleotides. PLoS Pathog., 2012, 8, e1003030). Table 31.

Activity of Compound 1 against Replicons Containing the NS5B Sequence A panel of replicons containing the NS5B sequences from various HCV genotypes derived from 6 laboratory reference strains (GT1a, 1b, 2a, 3a, 4a and 5a) (FIG.19) and from 8 HCV patient plasma samples (GT1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a-1, 3a-2, 4a and 4d) (FIG.20) were used to determine the potency of Compound 1 and sofosbuvir. Compound 1 was more potent than sofosbuvir against clinical and laboratory strains of HCV. Compound 1 showed potent pan-genotypic antiviral activity in vitro against wild-type clinical isolates with EC95 < 80 nM, which is 4- to 14-fold more potent than sofosbuvir. As shown in FIG. 20, EC95 values for Compound 1 were 7-33 times lower than sofosbuvir against clinical isolates of all HCV genotypes tested. EC 50 values for Compound 1 were 6-11 times lower than sofosbuvir against laboratory strains of HCV Genotypes 1-5 (FIG.19). Example 23. Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Study of Compound 1-A in Healthy Volunteers (Part A) and GT1-HCV Infected Patients (Part B) Compound 1-A was tested in a single ascending dose (SAD) study to measure its safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic in healthy subjects (Part A). Part A was a randomized, double- blind, placebo-controlled SAD study. Healthy subjects in Part A received a single dose of Compound 1-A or placebo in the fasting state. Subjects were confined to the clinic from Day -1 to Day 6. Dosing in each cohort was staggered such that 2 subjects (1 active:1 placebo) were evaluated for 48 hours after dosing before the remainder of the cohort was dosed. Each cohort received Compound 1-A in ascending order. Dosing of sequential cohorts occurred based on review of available safety data (through Day 5) and plasma pharmacokinetic data (through 24 h) of the prior cohort. Dose escalation proceeded following satisfactory review of these data. As pharmacokinetic and safety data emerged from prior cohorts, doses evaluated in Cohorts 3a-4a were adjusted by increments no more than 100 mg. The total maximum dose evaluated in Part A did not exceed 800 mg. The dosing regimen for Part A is shown in Table 32. Table 32. Dosing Regimen for Compound 1-A Administration Part A of Study Cohort Population N (active: placebo) Compound 1-A (Compound 1)* Healthy volunteers in the Part A portion of the study were male and female subjects between the ages of 18 and 65. Active and placebo recipients were pooled within each Part A cohort to preserve the study blind. Compound 1-A was also tested in a single ascending dose (SAD) study to measure its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and antiviral activity in GT1-HCV infected patients (Part B). Subjects in Part B received a single dose of Compound 1-A in the fasting state. Patients were confined to the clinic from Day -1 to Day 6. Part B was initiated after the safety (through Day 5) and plasma pharmacokinetic (through 24 h) data review from Cohort 3a in Part A. Available safety data (through Day 5) and pharmacokinetic data (through 24 h) was reviewed for the first cohort in Part B (Cohort 1b) before enrolling subsequent Part B cohorts. Subsequent Part B cohorts were only dosed following review of available safety and pharmacokinetic data from the respective doses in Part A as well as available safety (through Day 5) from the prior Part B cohorts. Dose escalation up to 600 mg in HCV-infected patients proceeded following satisfactory review of these data. The dosing regimen for Part B is shown in Table 33. Table 33. Dosing Regimen for Compound 1-A in Part B of Study Cohort Population N (active) Compound 1-A (Compound 1)* . Patients infected with HCV were treatment-naïve, non-cirrhotic GT1-infected subjects with a viral load of > 5 log10 IU/mL. No serious adverse events were recorded and no premature discontinuations were required in either Part A or Part B. All adverse effects were mild to moderate in intensity and no dose- related patterns, including laboratory parameters, vital signs, and ECGs were evident. Example 24. Results of the Single Ascending Dose (SAD) Study of Compound 1-A Pharmacokinetic of Compound 1 and nucleoside metabolite 1-7 were measured following the single dose of Compound 1-A. The C 24 trough plasma concentrations (C 24h ) of metabolite 1-7 in HCV-infected patients following a 600 mg dose of Compound 1-A was 25.8 ng/mL, which is more than double the plasma concentration dose following a 300 mg dose of Compound 1-A. Metabolite 1-7 (shown in Scheme 1) can only be generated via dephosphorylation of the intracellular phosphate metabolite 1-4, metabolite 1-5, and metabolite 1-6, which is the active species. Therefore, metabolite 1-7 can be considered a surrogate of the active species. The pharmacokinetic data for all cohorts is shown in Table 34 and Table 35. Values are reported as mean ± SD, except tor Tmax where median (range) is reported. Pharmacokinetic parameters were comparable in healthy and HCV-infected patients. Table 34.

FIG. 21 is the mean plasma- concentration of Compound 1 following a single dose of Compound 1-A and FIG.22 is the mean plasma-concentration of metabolite 1-7 following a single dose of Compound 1-A. As shown in FIG. 21, Compound 1 was quickly absorbed and rapidly/extensively metabolized in all cohorts from Part B. As shown in FIG.22, metabolite 1-7 was a major metabolite and exhibited sustained plasma concentrations. Plasma exposure of Compound 1 was dose-related while exposure of metabolite 1-7 was dose-proportional. For the HCV-infected subjects of Part B, measurements of HCV RNA quantitation were performed before, during, and after administration of Compound 1-A. Plasma HCV RNA determinations were performed through the use of a validated commercial assay. Baseline was defined as the mean of Day -1 and Day 1 (pre-dose). A single 300 mg dose of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 270 mg of Compound 1) resulted in significant antiviral activity in GT1b-HCV infected subjects. The mean maximum HCV RNA reduction 24 hours post-dose following a single 300 mg dose was 1.7 log 10 IU/mL and this compares to a -2 log10 IU/mL reduction after 1 day of 400 mg of sofosbuvir monotherapy in GT1a HCV-infected subjects. The mean maximum HCV RNA reduction 24 hours post-dose following a single 100 mg dose was 0.8 log10 IU/mL. The mean maximum HCV RNA reduction was 2.2 log 10 IU/mL following a single 400 mg dose. Individual pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analyses for the individual subjects from Part B of the study are shown in FIGS.23A-23F. Metabolite 1-7 concentration is plotted against HCV RNA reduction concentration, and as shown in FIGS. 23A-23F, plasma HCV RNA reduction correlates with plasma metabolite 1-7 exposure. Viral response is sustained with metabolite 1-7 plasma concentrations that are greater than the EC95 value against GT1b. The correlation between plasma concentration and HCV RNA reduction levels indicates that a more profound response will be achievable with higher doses of Compound 1-A. Example 25. Predicted Steady-State Trough Levels of Metabolite 1-7 exceed Compound 1 EC95 Values against Clinical Isolates of HCV GT 1-4 As shown in FIG. 24, the steady-state trough plasma levels (C 24,ss ) of metabolite 1-7 following Compound 1-A dosing in humans (600 mg QD (550 mg free base equivalent) and 450 mg QD (400 mg free base equivalent)) was predicted and compared to the EC95 of Compound 1 in vitro across all tested clinical isolates to determine if the steady state plasma concentration is consistently higher than the EC95, which would result in high efficacy against any or all tested clinical isolates in vivo. The EC95 for Compound 1 is the same as the EC95 of Compound 1-A. For Compound 1-A to be effective, the steady-state trough plasma level of metabolite 1-7 should exceed the EC 95 . As shown in FIG.24, the EC95 of Compound 1-A against all tested clinical isolates ranged from approximately 18 to 24 nM. As shown in FIG.24, Compound 1-A at a dose of 450 mg QD (400 mg free base equivalent) in humans of provides a steady state trough plasma concentration (C24,ss) of approximately 40 ng/mL. Compound 1-A at a dose of 600 mg QD (550 mg free base equivalent) in humans of provides a steady state trough plasma concentration (C 24,ss ) of approximately 50ng/mL. Therefore, the steady state plasma concentration of surrogate metabolite 1-7 is almost double the EC95 against all tested clinical isolates (even the hard to treat GT3a), which indicates superior performance. In contrast, the EC95 of the standard of care nucleotide sofosbuvir ranges from 50 to 265 nM across all tested HCV clinical isolates, with an EC95 less than the predicted steady state concentration at the commercial dosage of 400 mg for only two isolates, GT2a and GT2b. The EC 95 for the commercial dosage of 400 mg of sofosbuvir is greater than the predicted steady state concentration for other clinical isolates, GT1a, GT1b, GT3a, GT4a, and GT4d. The Compound 1-A 450 mg steady state trough plasma concentration (C24,ss) was predicted using the 300 mg steady state trough plasma concentration (C 24,ss ). The mean steady state trough plasma concentration (C24,ss) at 300 mg was 26.4 ng/mL, and therefore the calculation was 26.4*450/300=39.6 ng/mL. The 600 mg steady state trough plasma concentration (C 24,ss ) was predicted using three approaches: 1) the 600 mg Day 1 C 24 mean was 25.8 ng/mL and a 60% increase was assumed for reaching steady state. Therefore the calculation was 25.8*1.6=41.3 ng/mL; 2) the 400 mg day 1 C 24 mean was 22.5 ng/mL and a 60% increase was assumed for reaching steady state. Taking dose proportional PK into account, the calculation was 22.5*1.6*600/400=54 ng/mL; and 3) the 300 mg steady state trough plasma concentration (C24,ss) was 26.4 ng/mL and a proportional PK was assumed. Therefore the calculation was 26.4*2=52.8 ng/mL. The 600 mg steady state trough plasma concentration (C 24,ss ) is the average of the 3 data points ( (41.3+54+52.8)/3=49.3 ng/mL). There is generally about a 60% increase in C24 at steady state compared to C24 following a single dose. The data comparing the efficacy and pharmacokinetic steady state parameters in FIG. 24 clearly demonstrates the unexpected therapeutic importance of Compound 1-A for the treatment of hepatitis C. In fact, the predicted steady-state plasma level after administration of Compound 1- A is predicted to be at least 2-fold higher than the EC95 for all genotypes tested, and is 3- to 5-fold more potent against GT2. This data indicates that Compound 1-A has potent pan-genotypic antiviral activity in humans. As shown in FIG.24, the EC 95 of sofosbuvir at GT1, GT3, and GT4 is greater than 100 ng/mL. Thus surprisingly, Compound 1-A is active against HCV at a dosage form that delivers a lower steady-state trough concentration (40-50 ng/mL) than the steady-state trough concentration (approximately 100 ng/mL) achieved by a similar dosage form of sofosbuvir. Example 26. Three-part study to evaluate safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-viral activity of Compound 1-A A three-part study was conducted with Compound 1-A to evaluate safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-viral activity. The three parts included: 1) the administration of multiple doses of up to 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) once daily (QD) for 7 days in NC (non-cirrhotic) GT1 HCV-infected patients (Part C); 2) the administration of 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) QD for 7 days in NC GT3 HCV-infected patients (Part D); and, 3) the administration of 600 mg of Compound 1- A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) QD for 7 days in a cohort of Child-Pugh A (CPA) cirrhotic patients with either GT1, GT2, or GT3 HCV infections (Part E). Doses were administered as the Compound 1-A salt base. The free base Compound 1 equivalent is often given in parenthesis. Part C was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled MAD study divided into three cohorts. Subjects were given 150 mg, 300 mg, or 600 mg of Compound 1-A or placebo for 7 days in the fasting state. The dose escalation only proceeded following satisfactory review of the data. Part D and Part E were open-labeled studies where patients received a dose of 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) for 7 days in the fasting state. HCV-infected patients were treatment-naïve with HCV RNA > 5 log10 IU/mL. HCV RNA was quantified using COBAS® AmpliPrep TaqMAN® v2.0 with LLQ of 15 IU/mL. Plasma drug levels were measured using LC-MS/MS. Baseline HCV RNA averaged >6 logs in all cohorts of patients administered 500 mg of Compound 1-A. Cirrhosis was confirmed by prior liver biopsy or Fibroscan > 12.5 kPa. The mean baseline Fibroscan was 6.3, 6.8, and 17.6 kPa in patients administered 600 mg equivalent of Compound 1-A in Part C, Part D, and Part E, respectively. Mean ages of enrolled subjects were 44, 39, and 56 years in the non-cirrhotic GT1b 600 mg dose cohort, non-cirrhotic GT3 cohort, and the cirrhotic cohort, respectively. Part A and Part B were previously conducted and described in WO 2018/144640. Part A and Part B were single ascending dose (SAD) studies. In Part A, healthy subjects were given up to 400 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 367 mg of Compound 1) and in Part B, GT1 NC HCV- infected subjects were given single doses of up to 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1). Example 27. Results of Study of Compound 1-A No serious adverse events (AEs), dose-limiting toxicities, or premature discontinuations were reported. Compound 1-A was well tolerated up to the highest doses tested (600 mg salt form) for seven days. The only pattern observed was a higher incidence of mostly low-grade lipid abnormalities (cholesterol and triglyceride increase) in subjects receiving Compound 1-A compared to placebo. However, this observation is consistent with previously published data showing rapid increase in lipids with HCV clearance upon initiation of DAA therapy in HCV- infected subjects. In addition, there were no findings suggestive of liver injury. ALT/AST values decreased over time during the treatment period in subjects receiving Compound 1-A. Finally, there were no other clinically relevant, dose-related patterns upon analysis of AEs, laboratory parameters, ECGs and vital signs. In part B, a single dose of the Compound 1-A equivalent of 92 mg, 275 mg, 368 mg, or 550 mg of Compound 1 was administered to non-cirrhotic GT1b HCV-infected subjects separated into dosing cohorts (n=3 for each cohort) to determine the mean maximum reduction of HCV RNA, the results of which are shown in Figure 25 and Table 36. A single dose of 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) administered to non-cirrhotic GT1b HCV- infected subjects (n=3) resulted in a mean maximum HCV RNA reduction of 2.3 log10 IU/mL, with individual maximum HCV RNA reductions of 2.1, 2.3, and 2.6 log10 IU/mL in this cohort. Table 36. HCV RNA Change from Baseline in GT1b HCV Patients after a Single Dose of Compound 1-A Dosing Cohort Mean (Individual) Max Reduction In Part C, dose-related antiviral activity was observed 7 days after dosing with a mean maximum HCV RNA reduction up to 4.4 log10 IU/mL in non-cirrhotic GT1b HCV-infected subjects (n=6). 50% of subjects achieved HCV RNA < LOQ. Figure 26 is a graph of the mean HCV RNA change from baseline in subjects given placebo, 150 mg, 300 mg, or 600 mg of Compound 2 once daily (QD). The mean maximum reduction was observed following 7 days of dosing in the three cohorts given 150 mg, 300 mg, or 600 mg of Compound 1-A once daily (QD). In Part D, potent antiviral activity was observed in non-cirrhotic GT3 HCV-infected subjects (n=6) with a mean maximum HCV RNA reduction of 4.5 log10 IU/mL. The mean HCV RNA reduction was 2.4 log 10 IU/mL after the first dose of 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) and one subject achieved HCV RNA < LOQ within four days after the first dose. Antiviral activity in the CPA cirrhotic HCV-infected subjects of Part E was similar to non- cirrhotic GT1b and GT3 cohorts. In Part E, the mean maximum HCV RNA reduction of cirrhotic HCV infected patients was 4.6 log10 IU/mL. Mean HCV RNA changes from baseline in these populations are presented in Figure 27. For comparison, the curves for the ascending dose cohorts (Part C, non-cirrhotic GT1b HCV-infected patients) are shown in Figure 26 and the curves for all 600 mg QD cohorts (Parts C/D/E) are included in Figure 27. Metabolite 1-7 antiviral activity observed in each cohort is summarized in Table 39A, Table 39B, and Table 39C. The mean maximum HCV RNA change for Part C, Part D, and Part E is shown in Table 37. Figures 28A-28C are graphs comparing the mean maximum reduction of non-cirrhotic subjects with GT1 HCV infection from Part C, non-cirrhotic subjects with GT3 HCV infection from Part D, and cirrhotic subjects with GT1/GT2/GT3 HCV from Part E. The mean maximum reduction following 7 days of dosing was similar for subjects, regardless of whether the subject was infected with GT1 or GT3 HCV and regardless of whether the subject was cirrhotic or non-cirrhotic. A summary of the antiviral activity among all of these cohorts is shown in Table 37 and Table 38. A profound early viral response in cirrhotic subjects was observed, leading to a 2.4 and 2.2 log 10 HCV RNA reduction for GT1 and GT3 HCV subjects, respectively, within the first 24 hours. Five subjects receiving the 600 mg QD dose of metabolite 1-7 (3 subjects in Part C (50%) and 1 subject each in Parts D and E (17%)) achieved HCV RNA levels below the lower limit of quantitation in the study. Table 37. Maximum HCV RNA Change in Part B, Part C, Part D, and Part E Part C Part D Part E 150 mg/day 300 mg/day 600 mg/day 600 m /da 600 m /da Table 38. Summary of Antiviral Activity of Compound 1-A in Part C, Part D, and Part E for 600 mg of Compound 1-A Mean Reduction Mean (Individual) Max HCV RNA Compound 1, the free base of Compound 1-A, was rapidly and well-absorbed with estimated fraction absorbed approximating 50% based on urine recovery. After repeated QD administrations for seven days in a fasted state, Compound 1 was quickly absorbed followed by rapid metabolic activation. Following daily dosing for 7 days in Part C, Compound 1 exhibited a short half-life and did not accumulate over time. Plasma exposure of Compound 1 was slightly more than dose proportional from 150 mg to 300 mg and mostly dose proportional thereafter. While plasma peak and total exposure of metabolite 1-7 was dose proportional from 150 to 300 mg and less than dose proportional from 300 mg to 600 mg, trough levels of metabolite 1-7 were mostly dose proportional in the studied dose range. Based on metabolite 1-7 trough levels, steady state PK was essentially reached after the third or fourth dose. The formation of metabolite 1-7 peaked at approximately 6 hours after dosing and metabolite 1-7 exhibited a long half-life (~13-30 h) which supports once a day (QD) dosing. The long half-life resulted in the desired higher metabolite 1-7 trough (50%-60%) upon reaching steady state. (Active triphosphate 1-6 is not measurable in plasma since it does not leave the cell, and therefore 1-7, which is measurable is plasma, acts as a surrogate for triphosphate 1-6 and reflects intracellular active triphosphate). Steady state of metabolite 1-7 concentrations was reached by day 3 or 4 in NC subjects and by day 5 in the subjects with cirrhosis. Overall, mild hepatic impairment did not significantly impact the PK of Compound 1-A based on plasma exposures. No food effect on total and trough exposure of metabolite 1-7 was observed. Figure 29 is a graph of the mean plasma concentration-time profile of metabolite 1-7 at steady-state comparing non-cirrhotic subjects with GT1 HCV infection given the Compound 1-A equivalent of 138 mg/d QD of Compound 1, non-cirrhotic subjects with GT1 HCV infection given the Compound 1-A equivalent of 275 mg/d QD of Compound 1, non-cirrhotic subjects with GT3 HCV infection given 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1), and cirrhotic subjects with GT1 or GT3 HCV infections given 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1). Plasma levels of metabolite 1-7 were measured using LC-MS/MS. Tables 39A, 39B, and 39C shows the mean PK results of subjects enrolled in the study. As shown in Tables 39A-39C and Figure 29, the PK of metabolite 1-7 is similar in non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic subjects. Table 39A.

Figures 30A-30D are PK/PD analysis of non-cirrhotic subjects with GT1 HCV infection (Figure 30A), non-cirrhotic subjects with GT3 HCV infection (Figure 30B), the cirrhotic subject with GT1 HCV infection (Figure 30C), and the cirrhotic subject with GT3 HCV infection (Figure 30D). The left y-axis is the mean metabolite 1-7 concentration and the right y-axis is the mean HCV RNA reduction. The dashed horizontal line (-----) represents the EC95 value of Compound 1 and the dots represent Cτ, the steady-state plasma trough level of metabolite 1-7 following 600 mg of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1). As shown in Figures 30A-30D, the steady state plasma trough level of metabolite 1-7 consistently exceeds the EC95 of Compound 1 in inhibiting HCV GT1 and GT3 in non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic subjects. The steady state plasma trough level of metabolite 1-7 in cirrhotic patients is 45.7 ng/mL, and the EC 95 of Compound 1 in HCV GT1, GT2, and GT3 is approximately 21.7 ng/mL, 11.6 ng/mL, and 17.5 ng/mL equivalents of metabolite 1-7, respectively. Figures 30A-30D also demonstrate that antiviral activity correlated with plasma exposure. An E max model, generated by plotting the AUC of metabolite 1-7 against the HCV RNA reduction, was used to predict that metabolite 1-7 exposures of > 2000 ng/mL x h will result in a maximal viral load reduction of at least 4 log units after 7 days of QD dosing with Compound 1- A (Figure 31). A 600 mg dose of Compound 1-A (equivalent to 550 mg of Compound 1) consistently reaches this threshold in non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic subjects, demonstrating that 550 mg QD of Compound 1 (equivalent to 600 mg of Compound 1-A) will result in maximum viral- load reduction. Example 28. Formulation Description and Manufacturing of Compound 1-A A representative non-limiting batch formula for Compound 1-A tablets (50 mg and 100 mg) is presented in Table 40. The tablets were produced from a common blend using a direct compression process as shown in FIG.32.

Table 40. Formulation of 50 mg and 100 mg Compound 1-A Tablets Raw Material % w/w g/batch Mg/unit T l 1 T l Compound 1-A was adjusted based on the as-is assay, with the adjustment made in the percentage of microcrystalline cellulose. Compound 1-A and excipients (microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate, and croscarmellose sodium) were screened, placed into a V- blender (PK Blendmaster, 0.5L bowl) and mixed for 5 minutes at 25 rpm. Magnesium stearate was then screened, added and the blend was mixed for an additional 2 minutes. The common blend was divided for use in producing 50 mg and 100 mg tablets. The lubricated blend was then compressed at a speed of 10 tablets/minutes using a single punch research tablet press (Korsch XP1) and a gravity powder feeder. The 50 mg tablets were produced using round standard concave 6 mm tooling and 3.5 kN forces. The 100 mg tablets were produced using 8 mm round standard concave tooling and 3.9-4.2 kN forces. The specifications of the 50 mg and 100 mg tablets are shown in Table 41. Table 41. Specifications of 50 mg and 100 mg Tablets of Compound 1-A 50 mg Tablets 100 mg Tablets A i h 1 1 2 1 The 50 mg and 100 mg tablets produced as described above were subjected to 6 month stability studies under three conditions: 5°C (refrigeration), 25°C/60% RH (ambient), and 40°C/75% RH (accelerated). Both the 50 mg and 100 mg tablets were chemically stable under all three conditions tested. Under refrigeration conditions (5 °C), both the 50 mg and 100 mg tablets remained white solids that did not change in appearance from T=0 to T=6 months. Throughout the 6-month study, no impurities were reported that were greater than 0.05% for either the 50 mg tablets or the 100 mg tablets. The water content after 6 months was also less than 3.0 % w/w for both tablets. Similar results were reported when the tablets were subjected to ambient conditions (25 °C/60% RH); no impurities that were greater than 0.05% were reported throughout the 6 months for both tablets and the water content did not exceed 3.0 % w/w at the 6-month mark. When the tablets were subjected to accelerated conditions (40 °C/75% RH), the appearance of the 50 mg and 100 mg tablets did not change from a white, round tablet. One impurity was reported after 3 months, but the impurity was only 0.09%. A second impurity was reported after 6 months, but the total impurity percentage was only 0.21% for both the 50 mg and 100 mg tablets. Water content was 3.4 % w/w at 6 months for the 50 mg tablets and 3.2 % w/w for the 100 mg tablets. In a separate study, the stability of 50 mg and 100 mg tablets of Compound 1-A at ambient conditions (25 °C/60% RH) was measured over 9 months. The appearance of the 50 mg and 100 mg tablet did not change from a white round tablet over the course of 9 months. Impurities in the 50 mg tablet were less than 0.10% after 9 months and impurities in the 100 mg tablet were less than 0.05%. The water content of the 50 mg tablet and the 100 mg tablet after 9 months was only 2.7 % w/w and 2.6 % w/w, respectively.

Example 29: Synthesis of Compound 2

Synthesis of Compound 2-9 2- bromo-5-chlorophenyl)acetic acid (Compound 2-220.02 g, 80.0 mmol) were mixed with TfOH (91 mL) and heated to 60° C under an nitrogen atmosphere. After stirring at this temperature for 16 hours, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and poured over a 20 minute period into isopropanol (500 mL) that had been cooled in an ice/water bath. The resulting slurry was diluted with water (125 mL), which was added over 10 minutes. After aging for 30 minutes in the ice/water bath, the mixture was filtered, and the collected solid washed with 4:1 isopropanol/water (50 mL). The solid was dried in vacuo to provide Compound 2-3 (20.14 g, 53.3 mmol, 80% yield). Compound 2-3 (2.03 g, 5.37 mmol) was taken up in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (20.3 mL, 10 volumes), and to this solution was added ammonia in methanol (11.51 mL of 7N, 81 mmol, 15 eq.). The resulting solution was aged at room temperature for 16 hours, then concentrated by the removal of 25 mL of solvent and the slurry treated with toluene (70 mL). The resulting solution was then redistilled to remove a further 35 mL of solvent and achieve a final solution of the Compound 2-5 in 20 volumes of toluene. This solution was used without further purification. A 1 L round-bottom flask equipped with an air condenser was charged with Compound 2-5 (25 g, 163 mmol), 4-methoxyaniline (22.1 g, 180 mmol), and isopropanol (250 mL). The resulting slurry was warmed to 50° C. and stirred for 3.5 hours, during which time a precipitate formed. The resulting slurry was cooled to 0° C., aged for 1 hour, and filtered. The flask and pad were rinsed twice with 0°C isopropanol (84 mL), and the solid dried to a constant weight in a vacuum oven at 50°C to provide Compound 2-6. (39.0 g, 93% yield). 1 H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 8.77 (s, 1H), 8.06 (s, 1H), 7.26 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 6.96 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 3.77 (s, 3H), 2.45 (m, 1H), 1.19 (m, 2H), 1.05 (m, 2H)—imine geometry not determined, drawn as (E) for convenience. A 3-neck roundbottom flask equipped with a magnetic stirbar, a temperature probe, and a nitrogen inlet was charged with Compound 2-6 (7.54 g, 29.2 mmol) and a solution of Compound 2-4 in toluene (5.72 wt %, 174.8 g, 26.5 mmol) was added. The resulting suspension was allowed to stir at room temperature until the solid dissolved, and the resulting solution was cooled using an ice/water bath. TFA (2.45 mL, 31.8 mmol) was added while the internal temperature was maintained below 5° C. The resulting solution was allowed to stir in the ice/water bath for 16 hours as it warmed to room temperature. The resulting slurry was filtered, the flask and pad were washed with toluene (27 mL), and the organic solution washed with aqueous NaHCO3 (4 wt %, 54 mL) and water (54 mL). The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo to ˜25 mL, diluted with isopropanol (110 mL), and concentrated in vacuo to ˜50 mL total volume. The resulting slurry was warmed to 40°C, diluted with water (10 mL, added over 30 minutes), aged at 0°C for 1 hour, and filtered. The flask and pad were washed with 4:1 isopropanol/water (25 mL), and the solid dried to a constant weight in a vacuum oven at 50°C to provide Compound 2-7. (10.1 g, 74% yield) To a solution of Pd(OAc)2 (219 mg, 0.98 mmol) and (R)-QuinoxP* (Compound 2-8) (343 mg, 1.03 mmol) in a 100 mL round bottom flask was added degassed toluene (45 mL). The solution was subjected to three cycles of evacuation with vacuum and backfill with nitrogen and then purged with nitrogen above surface for 5 minutes. The catalyst solution was then allowed to age at 20° C. for 2 hours. A 1 L, 3-neck round bottom flask fitted with an overhead stirrer was then charged with Compound 2-7 (25 g, 48.8 mmol) and K 3 PO 4 (41.4 g, 195 mmol) and toluene (700 mL). The mixture was subjected to three cycles of vacuum evacuation and nitrogen backfill and then purged with nitrogen above surface for 5 minutes. Degassed water (0.88 mL, 48.8 mmol) was then added dropwise, after which the premade catalyst solution was added and the resulting reaction heated to 50-55° C and stirred at this temperature for 11 hours. During the first 6 hours of the reaction time, additional water (5.28 mL, 293 mmol) was added in six equal portions, each hour. After a total of 11 hours at 50-55°C, the reaction mixture was cooled to 20°C and charged with 75 mL of water and 5 mL 50% w/v KOH (˜9N). The aqueous layer was cut away and the organic layer washed with 100 mL of water. The organic layer was then filtered and concentrated in vacuo and the resulting residue was purified using flash column chromatography to provide Compound 2-9. The ee was determined using SFC under the following conditions: Column: ChiralCel OJ-3; 4.6 mm×150 mm; 3 μm particle size Temperature: 40° C. Pressure: 200 bar Modifier: IPA with 25 mM isobutyl amine added Flowrate: 3.0 mL·min Conditions: 1% modifier/99% CO 2 to 40% modifier/60% CO 2 over 5 minutes with 1 minute hold at 40% modifier For purified Compound 2-9: (23 mg, 90% yield, in 91% ee). 1 H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz): δ 7.663 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.407 (d, J=0.4 Hz, 1H), 7.200 (dd, J=2.0, 8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.092 (d, J=0.48.4 Hz, 1H), 7.048-7.039 (m, 2H), 6.958-6.910 (m, 2H), 2.194-2.153 (m, 1H), 1.275-1.075 (m, 2H), 1.018- 0.991 (m, 2H). The crude product Compound 2-9 was dissolved in about 50 mL of toluene and 128 mL of iPAC at 45°C. (S)-Camphorsulfonic acid (10.8 g, 46.4 mmol) was added over 2.5 hours in three portions at 45°C. It was cooled to room temperature and additional (S)-camphorsulfonic acid (0.57 g, 2.4 mmol) was added. The mixture was aged at room temperature for 16 hrs, then filtered. The solid was washed with 50 ml 1/2.5 toluene/isopropyl acetate and then 50 ml isopropyl acetate, and dried with vacuum to afford 27.1 g of Compound 2-9 as the camphorsulfonic acid salt in 96 to >99% ee.

Degassed 2-Me-THF (130 mL) and water (0.54 mL) were added. A separate vessel was charged with palladium acetate (0.067 g) and Xphos (2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,4′,6′- triisopropylbiphenyl) (0.293 g) and degassed 2-Me-THF (20 mL) under nitrogen, and the mixture was allowed to stir for 30 minutes then added to the flask Compound 2-9. The mixture was then heated to 75°C and allowed to age at this temperature for 1 hour or until complete conversion, then allowed to cool to room temperature. Water (30 mL) was added to the mixture, and the layers separated. The organic layer was washed with 10% brine (30 mL), then treated with Cuno-3-carbon (1.0 g) for about 15 hours. The mixture was filtered through a Celite-pad to remove carbon. The solution was concentrated in vacuo to about approximately 35 mL mixture. Seed crystals were added to initiate the crystallization. The mixture was allowed to age at room temperature for 10 minutes before acetonitrile (105 mL) was added slowly. The resultant slurry was filtered and the collected solid washed with a mixture of acetonitrile/2-Me-THF (3:7, 30 mL), then dried in a nitrogen stream to provide Compound 2-10.1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz), 8.23 (s, 1H), 7.70 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.50 (s, 1H), 7.31 (d, J=9.6 Hz, 1H), 7.29 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 7.23 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.18 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 7.10 (s, 1H), 2.15-2.10 (m, 1H), 1.39 (s, 6H), 1.37 (s, 3H), 1.37 (s, 3H), 1.06-1.02 (m, 4H), 1.01-0.95 (m, 4H). To a high-pressure vessel was charged with compound 2-10 (10.0 g, 16.28 mmol, 1.0 eq), compound 2-11 (11.5 g, 2.15 eq.), 2-Me-THF (90 mL) and K 2 CO 3 (98 mL, 1 M, 6 eq.). The vessel was degassed. A second reaction vessel was charged with Pd(OAc)2 (0.11 g, 3%) and Xphos (0.58 g, 7.5%), then degassed followed by addition of degassed 2-Me-THF (20 mL). The resulting catalyst/ligand slurry was allowed to age for 2 hours at room temperature under nitrogen atmosphere. It was then transferred to the reaction vessel containing Compound 2-11 and rinsed with degassed 2-Me-THF (10 mL). The resulting reaction mixture was degassed again, and the reaction vessel sealed and heated to 85 to 90°C for about 8 hours until >99.5% conversion was reached. The reaction was cooled down to room temperature, and the organic layer was sequentially washed with 10% NaCl solution (18 mL) and 3% NaCl solution (18 mL). The organic layer was then concentrated in vacuo and azeotropically dried via distillation to provide crude product (14.66 g) The crude product (14.66 g) in 2-Me-THF (135 mL) was added to a solution of tri-n- butylphosphine (2.32 mL) in MeOH (19.4 mL). The mixture was heated to 70°C followed by addition of a solution of (S)-mandelic acid (0.94 g) dissolved in 2-Me-THF (3.87 mL). After aging at 70°C for several hours, the reaction mixture was cooled to 60°C and another portion of (S)-mandelic acid (3.06 g) in 2-Me-THF (12.58 mL) was added. The batch was seeded with the mandelate salt Compound 2-12. A final portion of S-mandelic acid (35.41 g) in 2-Me-THF (22.25 mL) was charged over 4 hours at 60°C. The reaction mixture was gradually cooled to 20°C over 8 hours and aged at 20°C for 1 hour. The slurry was filtered, and rinsed with 2-Me- THF (containing 2% wt (S)-mandelic acid). The collected solid was dried at 60°C to provide the bis-mandelate salt Compound 2-12 as a solid (18.74 g) The bis-mandelate salt Compound 2-12 (6 g) was mixed with ethyl acetate (48 mL) and water (25.7 mL). To the biphasic mixture was added 2M potassium carbonate solution (6 mL, 2.5 equivalents) over 10 minutes, during which a biphasic solution results. The lower aqueous layer was removed, and the organic layer washed sequentially with 8% brine solution (30 mL) and water (2×30 mL). The organic layer was azeotropically dried via distillation (final solution volume=30 mL). Heptane (66 mL) was charged to an inerted flask. The ethyl acetate stream containing product was added to the heptane over a period of 2 hours. After aging for another 2 hours, the product slurry was filtered, and the wet filter cake washed with a mixture of heptane (10.8 mL) and EtOAc (2 mL). The solid was dried in vacuo for about 15 hours at 60°C to provide Compound 2 as the free base.

Example 30: Synergistic Anti-HCV Activity of Compound 1 and Compound 2 Cell Culture - The reporter cell line Huh-luc/neo-ET harbors the persistently replicating 13sgluc-ubi-neo/NS3-3'/ET replicon containing the firefly luciferase gene-ubiquitin-neomycin phosphotransferase fusion protein and EMCV IRES driven NS3-5B HCV coding sequences containing the ET tissue culture adaptive mutations (E1202G, T1208I, and K1846T). A stock culture of the Huh-luc/neo-ET was expanded by culture in DMEM supplemented with 10% FCS, 2 mM glutamine, penicillin (100 IU/ml)/streptomycin (100 µg/ml) and 1 X nonessential amino acids plus 1 mg/ml G418. The cells were split 1:4 and cultured for two passages in the same media plus 250 µg/ml G418. The cells were treated with trypsin and enumerated by staining with trypan blue and seeded into 96-well tissue culture plates at a cell culture density 7.5 x 103 cells per well and incubated at 37 C 5% CO2 for 24 hours. Compound Addition - Following the 24 hour incubation, medium was removed and replaced with the same medium minus the G418 plus the diluted test compounds in triplicate. Six wells in each plate received medium alone as a no-treatment control. The cells were incubated an additional 72 hours at 37°C 5% CO2 then anti-HCV activity was measured by luciferase endpoint. Duplicate plates were treated and incubated in parallel for assessment of cellular toxicity by XTT staining. Cellular Viability - The cell culture monolayers from treated cells were stained with the tetrazolium dye XTT (2,3-bis(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-5-[(phenylamino)ca rbonyl]-2H- tetrazolium hydroxide) following 72 hours incubation to evaluate the cellular viability of the Huh-luc/neo-ET reporter cell line in the presence of the compounds. The cells were stained with the tetrazolium dye XTT. XTT-tetrazolium was metabolized by the mitochondrial enzymes of metabolically active cells to a soluble formazan product, allowing rapid quantitative analysis of the inhibition of virus-induced cell killing by antiviral test substances. XTT solution was prepared daily as a stock of 1 mg/ml in RPMl1640. Phenazine methosulfate (PMS) solution was prepared at 0.15 mg/ml in PBS and stored in the dark at -20°C. XTT/PMS stock was prepared immediately before use by adding 40 µl of PMS per ml of XTT solution. Fifty microliters of XTT/PMS was added to each well of the plate and the plate was reincubated for 4 hours at 37°C. Plates were sealed with adhesive plate sealers and shaken gently or inverted several times to mix the soluble formazan product and the plate was read spectrophotometrically at 450/650 nm with a Molecular Devices Vmax plate reader. Measurement of Virus Replication- HCV replication from the replicon assay system was measured by luciferase activity following 72 hours incubation using the britelite plus luminescence reporter gene kit according to the manufacturer's instructions (Perkin Elmer, Shelton, CT). Briefly, one vial of britelite plus lyophilized substrate was solubilized in 10 ml of britelite reconstitution buffer and mixed gently by inversion. After a 5 minute incubation at room temperature, the britelite plus reagent was added to the 96 well plates at 100 µL per well. The plates were sealed with adhesive film and incubated at room temperature for approximately 10 minutes to lyse the cells. The well contents were transferred to a white 96-well plate and luminescence was measured within 15 minutes using the Wallac 1450 Microbeta Trilux liquid scintillation counter. The data were imported into a customized Microsoft Excel 2010 spreadsheet for determination of the 50% virus inhibition concentration (EC50) for single concentration evaluations. Combination Therapy Assays Compound 2 was evaluated using a high-test concentration of 0.008 nM and four serial twofold dilutions in combination with nine concentrations of Compound 1 in the anti-HCV assay described above. Fifty microliters of each compound at 4 times (4x) the desired concentration was added to the 96 well microtiter plate containing cells in the antiviral assays. Fifty microliters of assay media were added to wells where test compound was being evaluated for antiviral activity as a single compound. Data Analysis - The raw data was collected from Softmax Pro and imported into the Prichard and Shipman MacSynergy II software template (Prichard et al.1993. Antiviral Research 14: 181-206). Effects of the drug combination are calculated based on the activity of the two compounds when tested alone. The expected additive antiviral protection was subtracted from the experimentally determined antiviral activity at each combination concentration resulting in a positive value (synergy, or potentiation), a negative value (antagonism), or zero (additivity). The results of the combination assays are presented three dimensionally at each combination concentration, yielding a surface of activity extending above (synergy) or below (antagonism) the plane of additivity. The volume of the surface was calculated and expressed as a synergy volume (µM 2 %) calculated at the 95% confidence interval. For these studies, synergy was defined as drug combinations yielding synergy volumes greater than 50 µM 2 % at the 95% confidence interval. Slightly synergistic activity and highly synergistic activity have been defined as yielding synergy volumes of 50 to 100 µM 2 % and > 100 µM 2 %, respectively. Synergy volumes between -50 and 50 µM 2 % are considered additive and synergy volumes less than -50 µM 2 % are considered antagonistic. Anti-HCV Combination Therapy Evaluations: Compound 2 was evaluated in combination with Compound 1 for the inhibition of HCV replication in Huh-luc/neo-ET replicon cells. The percent of virus replication inhibition above expected at each concentration for each two-drug combination was calculated at the 95%, 99% and 99.9% confidence interval. The data obtained at the 95% confidence value were plotted three dimensionally and synergy volumes calculated. The synergy volume for the combination at the 95% confidence is summarized in the Table 42 below. Table 42: Combination Anti-HCV Activity Evaluation Compound HCV 1b Replicon employed in the combination antiviral assays, Compound 1 at 20 and 40 nM yielded a synergistic interaction with Compound 2 at concentrations of 0.004 and 0.008 nM. Antagonistic or synergistic toxicity interactions were not observed at the concentrations evaluated. This specification has been described with reference to embodiments of the invention. However, one of ordinary skill in the art appreciates that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the claims below. Accordingly, the specification is to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense, and all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of invention.
