Abstract
A previously disclosed series of non-nucleoside allosteric inhibitors of the NS5B polymerase of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) was optimized to yield novel compounds with improved physicochemical properties and activity in cell-based assays. Replacement of ionizable carboxylic acids with neutral substituents in lead compounds produced inhibitors with cellular permeability and antiviral activity in a cell-based assay of subgenomic HCV RNA replication (replicon EC(50) as low as 1.7 microM). The improvement in potency in this ex vivo model of HCV RNA replication validates, in part, the mechanism by which this class of allosteric benzimidazole derivatives inhibits the polymerase and represents a significant step forward in the discovery of novel HCV therapeutics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
