The (S)-desferrithiocin (DFT) skeleton is shown to be a useful pharmacophore on which to design orally effective iron chelators. While the study clearly indicates that formal reduction of the desazadesmethyldesferrithiocin thiazoline to a thiazolidine (6), expansion of the desmethyldesferrithiocin thiazoline to a thiazine (7), or substitution of the thiazoline sulfur of desazadesmethyldesferrithiocin by an oxygen (8 and 9) lead to a substantial loss of activity, conversion of (S)-desmethyldesferrithiocin (1) to an N-methylhydroxamate (4) or to the hexacoordinate dihydroxamate ligand (5) results in active compounds. This investigation thus demonstrates which structural components of the siderophore are required for iron clearance after oral administration and suggests the use of the desferrithiocin platform as a vector for other chelators.

The present invention provides methods using a compound capable of chelating a metal (e.g., iron) for treating and/or preventing infectious diseases. In particular, the metal chelators are desferrithiocin analogs, desazadesfemthiocin analogs, and HBED analogs of Formula (I-A)-(III-A). The invention further provides methods useful in inhibiting biofilm formation. The provided methods also include combination therapies comprising a metal chelator with another therapeutic agent (e.g., antibiotic). The infectious diseases and/or biofilm formation may occur in a subject diagnosed with cystic fibrosis.
