Our HCV research program investigated novel 2'-dihalogenated nucleoside HCV polymerase inhibitors and identified compound 1, a 5'-phosphoramidate prodrug of 2'-deoxy-2'-α-bromo-β-chloro uridine. Although 1 had a favorable in vitro activity profile in HCV replicons, oral dosing in dog resulted in low levels of the active 5'-triphosphate (TP) in liver. Metabolism studies using human hepatocytes provided a simple assay for screening alternative phosphoramidate prodrug analogs. Compounds that produced high TP concentrations i
