     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Bcl-2 is a critical regulator of programmed cell death (apoptosis). Bcl-2 belongs to the B cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) a family of proteins, which includes both pro-apoptotic proteins (such as Bak, Bax, Bim, Bid, tBid, Bad, Bik, PUMA, Bnip-1, Hrk, Bmf and Noxa) and anti-apoptotic proteins (such as Bcl-2, Bcl-X L , Bcl-W, Mcl-1 and Bcl-2A1). For example, under normal conditions, Bcl-2 inhibits apoptosis in part by preventing activation of Bak and Bax. Activation of the intrinsic apoptosis pathway (e.g., by cellular stress) inhibits Bcl-2, thus activating Bak and Bax. These proteins facilitate mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, releasing cytochrome c and Smac. This initiates the caspase signaling pathway, ultimately resulting in cell death. Dysregulation of Bcl-2 leads to sequestration of cell-death-promoting proteins, leading to evasion of apoptosis. This process contributes to malignancy, and facilitates cell survival under other disadvantageous conditions, such as during viral infection. For example, transcriptionally active HIV can incidentally generate a caspase protein fragment. This fragment binds to and activates the pro-apoptotic Bak. However, this fragment also binds to, and is sequestered by, Bcl-2 reducing its effectiveness at inducing cell death. Inhibition of Bcl-2 disrupts sequestration of pro-apoptotic proteins, restoring apoptotic signaling, and promoting damaged cells to undergo programmed cell death. Therefore, Bcl-2 inhibition has the potential to ameliorate or treat cancers and tumors, as well as ameliorate or treat certain viral infections in combination with other agents. 
     Definitions 
     Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. All patents, applications, published applications and other publications referenced herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety unless stated otherwise. In the event that there are a plurality of definitions for a term herein, those in this section prevail unless stated otherwise. 
     Whenever a group is described as being “optionally substituted” that group may be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more of the indicated substituents. Likewise, when a group is described as being “unsubstituted or substituted” if substituted, the substituent(s) may be selected from one or more the indicated substituents. If no substituents are indicated, it is meant that the indicated “optionally substituted” or “substituted” group may be substituted with one or more group(s) individually and independently selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl, aryl(alkyl), cycloalkyl(alkyl), heteroaryl(alkyl), heterocyclyl(alkyl), hydroxy, alkoxy, acyl, cyano, halogen, thiocarbonyl, O-carbamyl, N-carbamyl, O-thiocarbamyl, N-thiocarbamyl, C-amido, N-amido, S-sulfonamido, N-sulfonamido, C-carboxy, O-carboxy, nitro, sulfenyl, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, an amino, a mono-substituted amine group, a di-substituted amine group, a mono-substituted amine(alkyl) and a di-substituted amine(alkyl). 
     As used herein, “C a  to C b ” in which “a” and “b” are integers refer to the number of carbon atoms in a group. The indicated group can contain from “a” to “b”, inclusive, carbon atoms. Thus, for example, a “C 1  to C 4  alkyl” group refers to all alkyl groups having from 1 to 4 carbons, that is, CH 3 —, CH 3 CH 2 —, CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 —, (CH 3 ) 2 CH—, CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 —, CH 3 CH 2 CH(CH 3 )— and (CH 3 ) 3 C—. If no “a” and “b” are designated, the broadest range described in these definitions is to be assumed. 
     If two “R” groups are described as being “taken together” the R groups and the atoms they are attached to can form a cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl or heterocycle. For example, without limitation, if R a  and R b  of an NR a R b  group are indicated to be “taken together,” it means that they are covalently bonded to one another to form a ring:

     Pharmaceutical Compositions 
     Some embodiments described herein relate to a pharmaceutical composition, that can include an effective amount of one or more compounds described herein (for example, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof) and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, excipient or combination thereof. 
     The term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a mixture of one or more compounds and/or salts disclosed herein with other chemical components, such as diluents or carriers. The pharmaceutical composition facilitates administration of the compound to an organism. Pharmaceutical compositions can also be obtained by reacting compounds with inorganic or organic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid and salicylic acid. Pharmaceutical compositions will generally be tailored to the specific intended route of administration. 
     The term “physiologically acceptable” defines a carrier, diluent or excipient that does not abrogate the biological activity and properties of the compound nor cause appreciable damage or injury to an animal to which delivery of the composition is intended. 
     As used herein, a “carrier” refers to a compound that facilitates the incorporation of a compound into cells or tissues. For example, without limitation, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a commonly utilized carrier that facilitates the uptake of many organic compounds into cells or tissues of a subject. 
     As used herein, a “diluent” refers to an ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition that lacks appreciable pharmacological activity but may be pharmaceutically necessary or desirable. For example, a diluent may be used to increase the bulk of a potent drug whose mass is too small for manufacture and/or administration. It may also be a liquid for the dissolution of a drug to be administered by injection, ingestion or inhalation. A common form of diluent in the art is a buffered aqueous solution such as, without limitation, phosphate buffered saline that mimics the pH and isotonicity of human blood. 
     As used herein, an “excipient” refers to an essentially inert substance that is added to a pharmaceutical composition to provide, without limitation, bulk, consistency, stability, binding ability, lubrication, disintegrating ability etc., to the composition. For example, stabilizers such as anti-oxidants and metal-chelating agents are excipients. In an embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition comprises an anti-oxidant and/or a metal-chelating agent. A “diluent” is a type of excipient. 
     The pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be administered to a human patient per se, or in pharmaceutical compositions where they are mixed with other active ingredients, as in combination therapy, or carriers, diluents, excipients or combinations thereof. Proper formulation is dependent upon the route of administration chosen. Techniques for formulation and administration of the compounds described herein are known to those skilled in the art. 
     The pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein may be manufactured in a manner that is itself known, e.g., by means of conventional mixing, dissolving, granulating, dragee-making, levigating, emulsifying, encapsulating, entrapping or tableting processes. Additionally, the active ingredients are contained in an amount effective to achieve its intended purpose. Many of the compounds used in the pharmaceutical combinations disclosed herein may be provided as salts with pharmaceutically compatible counterions. 
     Multiple techniques of administering a compound, salt and/or composition exist in the art including, but not limited to, oral, rectal, pulmonary, topical, aerosol, injection, infusion and parenteral delivery, including intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramedullary injections, intrathecal, direct intraventricular, intraperitoneal, intranasal and intraocular injections. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be administered orally. 
     One may also administer the compound, salt and/or composition in a local rather than systemic manner, for example, via injection or implantation of the compound directly into the affected area, often in a depot or sustained release formulation. Furthermore, one may administer the compound in a targeted drug delivery system, for example, in a liposome coated with a tissue-specific antibody. The liposomes will be targeted to and taken up selectively by the organ. For example, intranasal or pulmonary delivery to target a respiratory disease or condition may be desirable. 
     The compositions may, if desired, be presented in a pack or dispenser device which may contain one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredient. The pack may for example comprise metal or plastic foil, such as a blister pack. The pack or dispenser device may be accompanied by instructions for administration. The pack or dispenser may also be accompanied with a notice associated with the container in form prescribed by a governmental agency regulating the manufacture, use, or sale of pharmaceuticals, which notice is reflective of approval by the agency of the form of the drug for human or veterinary administration. Such notice, for example, may be the labeling approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for prescription drugs, or the approved product insert. Compositions that can include a compound and/or salt described herein formulated in a compatible pharmaceutical carrier may also be prepared, placed in an appropriate container and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition.

     After a period of time, infectious agents can develop resistance to one or more therapeutic agents. The term “resistance” as used herein refers to a viral strain displaying a delayed, lessened and/or null response to a therapeutic agent(s). In some instances, the virus sometimes mutates or produces variations that are resistant or partially resistant to certain drugs. For example, after treatment with an antiviral agent, the viral load of a subject infected with a resistant virus may be reduced to a lesser degree compared to the amount in viral load reduction exhibited by a subject infected with a non-resistant strain. In some embodiments, a compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be provided to a subject infected with a HIV strain that is resistant to one or more different anti-HIV agents (for example, an agent used in a conventional standard of care). Examples of anti-HIV agents include, but are not limited to, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), protease inhibitors (PIs), fusion/entry inhibitors, integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), HIV vaccines, and combinations thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of any of the aforementioned.

     As used herein, a “subject” refers to an animal that is the object of treatment, observation or experiment. “Animal” includes cold- and warm-blooded vertebrates and invertebrates such as fish, shellfish, reptiles and, in particular, mammals. “Mammal” includes, without limitation, mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, dogs, cats, sheep, goats, cows, horses, primates, such as monkeys, chimpanzees, and apes, and, in particular, humans. In some embodiments, the subject can be human. In some embodiments, the subject can be a child and/or an infant, for example, a child or infant with a fever. In other embodiments, the subject can be an adult. 
     As used herein, the terms “treat,” “treating,” “treatment,” “therapeutic,” and “therapy” do not necessarily mean total cure or abolition of the disease or condition. Any alleviation of any undesired signs or symptoms of the disease or condition, to any extent can be considered treatment and/or therapy. Furthermore, treatment may include acts that may worsen the subject&#39;s overall feeling of well-being or appearance. 
     The terms “therapeutically effective amount” and “effective amount” are used to indicate an amount of an active compound, or pharmaceutical agent, that elicits the biological or medicinal response indicated. For example, a therapeutically effective amount of compound, salt or composition can be the amount needed to prevent, alleviate or ameliorate symptoms of the disease or condition, or prolong the survival of the subject being treated. This response may occur in a tissue, system, animal or human and includes alleviation of the signs or symptoms of the disease or condition being treated. Determination of an effective amount is well within the capability of those skilled in the art, in view of the disclosure provided herein. The therapeutically effective amount of the compounds disclosed herein required as a dose will depend on the route of administration, the type of animal, including human, being treated and the physical characteristics of the specific animal under consideration. The dose can be tailored to achieve a desired effect, but will depend on such factors as weight, diet, concurrent medication and other factors which those skilled in the medical arts will recognize. 
     For example, an effective amount of a compound is the amount that results in: (a) the reduction, alleviation or disappearance of one or more symptoms caused by the cancer, (b) the reduction of tumor size, (c) the elimination of the tumor, and/or (d) long-term disease stabilization (growth arrest) of the tumor. In the treatment of lung cancer (such as non-small cell lung cancer), a therapeutically effective amount is that amount that alleviates or eliminates cough, shortness of breath and/or pain. As another example, an effective amount, or a therapeutically effective amount of a Bcl-2 inhibitor is the amount which results in the reduction in Bcl-2 activity and/or an increase in apoptosis. The reduction in Bcl-2 activity is known to those skilled in the art and can be determined by the analysis of Bcl-2 binding and relatives levels of cells undergoing apoptosis. 
     The amount of the compound of Formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, required for use in treatment will vary not only with the particular compound or salt selected but also with the route of administration, the nature and/or symptoms of the disease or condition being treated and the age and condition of the patient and will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant physician or clinician. In cases of administration of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, dosages may be calculated as the free base. As will be understood by those of skill in the art, in certain situations it may be necessary to administer the compounds disclosed herein in amounts that exceed, or even far exceed, the dosage ranges described herein in order to effectively and aggressively treat particularly aggressive diseases or conditions. 
     In general, however, a suitable dose will often be in the range of from about 0.05 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg. For example, a suitable dose may be in the range from about 0.10 mg/kg to about 7.5 mg/kg of body weight per day, such as about 0.15 mg/kg to about 5.0 mg/kg of body weight of the recipient per day, about 0.2 mg/kg to 4.0 mg/kg of body weight of the recipient per day, or any amount in between. The compound may be administered in unit dosage form; for example, containing 1 to 500 mg, 10 to 100 mg, 5 to 50 mg or any amount in between, of active ingredient per unit dosage form. 
     The desired dose may conveniently be presented in a single dose or as divided doses administered at appropriate intervals, for example, as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day. The sub-dose itself may be further divided, e.g., into a number of discrete loosely spaced administrations. 
     As will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, the useful in vivo dosage to be administered and the particular mode of administration will vary depending upon the age, weight, the severity of the affliction, the mammalian species treated, the particular compounds employed and the specific use for which these compounds are employed. The determination of effective dosage levels, that is the dosage levels necessary to achieve the desired result, can be accomplished by one skilled in the art using routine methods, for example, human clinical trials, in vivo studies and in vitro studies. For example, useful dosages of a compound of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, can be determined by comparing their in vitro activity and in vivo activity in animal models. Such comparison can be done by comparison against an established drug, such as cisplatin and/or gemcitabine) 
     Dosage amount and interval may be adjusted individually to provide plasma levels of the active moiety which are sufficient to maintain the modulating effects, or minimal effective concentration (MEC). The MEC will vary for each compound but can be estimated from in vivo and/or in vitro data. Dosages necessary to achieve the MEC will depend on individual characteristics and route of administration. However, HPLC assays or bioassays can be used to determine plasma concentrations. Dosage intervals can also be determined using MEC value. Compositions should be administered using a regimen which maintains plasma levels above the MEC for 10-90% of the time, preferably between 30-90% and most preferably between 50-90%. In cases of local administration or selective uptake, the effective local concentration of the drug may not be related to plasma concentration. 
     It should be noted that the attending physician would know how to and when to terminate, interrupt or adjust administration due to toxicity or organ dysfunctions. Conversely, the attending physician would also know to adjust treatment to higher levels if the clinical response were not adequate (precluding toxicity). The magnitude of an administrated dose in the management of the disorder of interest will vary with the severity of the disease or condition to be treated and to the route of administration. The severity of the disease or condition may, for example, be evaluated, in part, by standard prognostic evaluation methods. Further, the dose and perhaps dose frequency, will also vary according to the age, body weight and response of the individual patient. A program comparable to that discussed above may be used in veterinary medicine. 
     Compounds, salts and compositions disclosed herein can be evaluated for efficacy and toxicity using known methods. For example, the toxicology of a particular compound, or of a subset of the compounds, sharing certain chemical moieties, may be established by determining in vitro toxicity towards a cell line, such as a mammalian, and preferably human, cell line. The results of such studies are often predictive of toxicity in animals, such as mammals, or more specifically, humans. Alternatively, the toxicity of particular compounds in an animal model, such as mice, rats, rabbits, dogs or monkeys, may be determined using known methods. The efficacy of a particular compound may be established using several recognized methods, such as in vitro methods, animal models, or human clinical trials. When selecting a model to determine efficacy, the skilled artisan can be guided by the state of the art to choose an appropriate model, dose, route of administration and/or regime.

     Example A 
     Bcl-2 Protein Family Binding Assay 
     Binding to Bcl-2 proteins Bcl-2, and Bcl-X L  was assessed using the Bcl2scan™ platform: T7 phage strains displaying BCL2 proteins were grown in parallel in 24-well blocks in an  E. coli  host derived from the BL21 strain.  E. coli  were grown to log-phase and infected with T7 phage from a frozen stock (multiplicity of infection=0.4) and incubated with shaking at 32° C. until lysis (90-150 minutes). The lysates were centrifuged (5,000×g) and filtered (0.2 m) to remove cell debris. Streptavidin-coated magnetic beads were treated with biotinylated BIM peptide ligand for 30 minutes at room temperature to generate affinity resins for BCL2 assays. The liganded beads were blocked with excess biotin and washed with blocking buffer (SeaBlock (Pierce), 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween 20, 1 mM DTT) to remove unbound ligand and to reduce non-specific phage binding. Binding reactions were assembled by combining BCL2 proteins, liganded affinity beads, and test compounds in 1× binding buffer (20% SeaBlock, 0.17×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 6 mM DTT). Test compounds were prepared as 100× stocks in 100% DMSO. Kds were determined using an 11-point 3-fold compound dilution series with one DMSO control point. All compounds for Kd measurements were distributed by acoustic transfer in 100% DMSO. The compounds were then diluted directly into the assays such that the final concentration of DMSO was 0.9%. All reactions performed in polypropylene 384-well plates. Each was a final volume of 0.02 ml. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature with shaking for 1 hour and the affinity beads were washed with wash buffer (1×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20). The beads were then re-suspended in elution buffer (1×PBS, 0.05% Tween 20, 2 μM non-biotinylated affinity ligand) and incubated at room temperature with shaking for 30 minutes. The BCL2 concentration in the eluates was measured by qPCR. Binding constants (Kds) were calculated with a standard dose-response curve using the Hill equation:

     Bcl-2/Bcl-X L  Homogeneous Time Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF) Assay 
     Binding to Bcl-2 proteins Bcl-2, and Bcl-X L  was also assessed using an HTRF assay. Background: FAM-Bak/Bad binds to surface pocket of the Bcl-2 protein family. This binding can be monitored by HTRF signals between anti-GST-Tb and FAM-peptide using GST-tagged Bcl proteins. Assay conditions: Bcl-2: 4 nM Bcl-2, 100 nM FAM-Bak peptide, Bcl-X L : 3 nM Bcl-X L , 40 nM FAM-Bad peptide in 20 mM K Phosphate, pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.005% Triton X-100 and 1% DMSO (final). Assay procedure: Compounds were tested in 10-dose IC 50  mode, in singlicate, with 3-fold serial dilution starting at 10 μM or 1 μM. Compound stock solutions were added to protein solution using Acoustic technology. The compounds were then incubated with protein for 10 min at room temperature. The respective FAM labeled peptide was added and incubated for another 10 min and then anti-GST-Tb was added. After 60 min at rt, the HTRF fluorescence signal ratio was measured. Curve fits were performed in GraphPad Prism 4 with “sigmoidal dose-response (variable slope)”; 4 parameters with Hill Slope. The results are shown in Table 2.

     Example C 
     RS4;11 and NCI-H1963 Cell Proliferation Assay 
     Cell proliferation was measured using the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay. The assay involved the addition of a single reagent (CellTiter-Glo® Reagent) directly to cells cultured in serum-supplemented medium. RS4;11 (ATC, CRL-1873) cells were cultured according to ATCC recommendations and were seeded at 50,000 cells per well. NCI-H1963 cells (ATCC CRL-5982) were cultured according to ATCC recommendations and seeded at 12,000 cells per well. 
     Each compound evaluated was prepared as a DMSO stock solution (10 mM). Compounds were tested in duplicate on each plate, with a 10-point serial dilution curve (1:3 dilution). Compound treatment (1.0 μL) was added from the compound dilution plate to the cell plate. The highest compound concentration was 10 μM (final), with a 0.1% final DMSO concentration. Plates were then incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2. After 48 h of compound treatment for RS4;11 or 72 h for NCI-H1963, cell plates were equilibrated at rt for approximately 30 mins. An equi-volume amount of CellTiter-Glo® Reagent (40 μL) was added to each well. Plates were mixed for 2 mins on an orbital shaker to induce cell lysis and then incubated at RT for 10 mins to stabilize the luminescent signal. Luminescence was recorded using a Envision plate reader according to CellTiter-Glo protocol. IC 50  of each compound was calculated using GraphPad Prism by nonlinear regression analysis. IC 50  values are provided in Table 3.

     Example D 
     Measurement of Caspase Release in Mock and HIV-1 (IIIB Strain) Inflected CD4 Cells 
     Primary CD4 T cells were purified by negative selection, using RosetteSep human CD4+ T cell enrichment cocktail (Stemcell Technologies) or an EasySep human CD4+ T cell isolation kit (Stemcell Technologies) as per the manufacturer&#39;s protocol. Primary CD4 T cells were isolated and activated with IL-2 50 IU/mL and phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) 1 μg/mL for 48 hours. Then cells were infected with HIV-1 IIIb  (NIH AIDS Reagent Program) viral stock for 3-6 hours with 6 ug/mL Polybrene (Sigma-Aldrich), washed, and resuspended with complete RPMI and IL-2 for 48 hours. The cells were treated with compounds as 100 μM and 300 μM DMSO stock solutions or DMSO. Cell death was measured using an IncuCyte system (Essen BioScience) and IncuCyte Caspase 3/7 Green Apoptosis Assay Reagent (catalog number 4440, Essen BioScience). Analysis of the data was done using IncuCyte Zoom software (2018A). Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism. Results are depicted as standard error (SE). The fold changes for area under the curve analysis were compared by multiple t-tests. P values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The results of this assay are summarized in  FIG. 5  and indicate that Examples 34 and 36 exhibit selectivity in killing HIV vs. mock infected cells.
