In a high-throughput screen for inhibitors of HPIV3 (a major cause of acute respiratory infection), we identified GHP-88309-a non-nucleoside inhibitor of viral polymerase activity that possesses unusual broad-spectrum activity against diverse paramyxoviruses including respiroviruses (i.e., HPIV1 and HPIV3) and morbilliviruses (i.e., MeV). Resistance profiles of distinct target viruses overlapped spatially, revealing a conserved binding site in the central cavity of the viral polymerase (L) protein that was validated by photoaffinity labeling-based target mapping. Mechanistic characterization through viral RNA profiling and in vitro MeV polymerase assays identified a block in the initiation phase of the viral polymerase. GHP-88309 showed nanomolar potency against HPIV3 isolates in well-differentiated human airway organoid cultures, was well tolerated (selectivity index > 7,111) and orally bioavailable, and provided complete protection against lethal infection in a Sendai virus mouse surrogate model of human HPIV3 disease when administered therapeutically 48 h after infection. Recoverees had acquired robust immunoprotection against reinfection, and viral resistance coincided with severe attenuation. This study provides proof of the feasibility of a well-behaved broad-spectrum allosteric antiviral and describes a chemotype with high therapeutic potential that addresses major obstacles of anti-paramyxovirus drug development.
