Abstract
New drugs introduced to the market are privileged structures that have affinities for biological targets implicated in human diseases and conditions. These new chemical entities (NCEs), particularly small molecules and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), provide insight into molecular recognition and simultaneously function as leads for the design of future medicines. This Review is part of a continuing series presenting the most likely process-scale synthetic approaches to 44 new chemical entities approved for the first time anywhere in the world during 2020.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection currently requires lifelong therapy with drugs that are used in combination to control viremia. The indole-3-glyoxamide 6 was discovered as an inhibitor of HIV-1 infectivity using a phenotypic screen and derivatives of this compound were found to interfere with the HIV-1 entry process by stabilizing a conformation of the virus gp120 protein not recognized by the host cell CD4 receptor. An extensive optimization program led to the identification of temsavir (31), which exhibited an improved antiviral and pharmacokinetic profile compared to 6 and was explored in phase 3 clinical trials as the phosphonooxymethyl derivative fostemsavir (35), a prodrug designed to address dissolution- and solubility-limited absorption issues. In this drug annotation, we summarize the structure-activity and structure-liability studies leading to the discovery of 31 and the clinical studies conducted with 35 that entailed the development of an extended release formulation suitable for phase 3 clinical trials.
