FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a method for treating a thrombotic or an inflammatory disorder administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound of Formula (I) or Formula (V):




or a stereoisomer or pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate form thereof, wherein the variables A, L, Z, R3, R4, R6, R11, X1, X2, and X3 are as defined herein. The compounds of Formula (I) are useful as selective inhibitors of serine protease enzymes of the coagulation cascade and/or contact activation system; for example thrombin, factor Xa, factor XIa, factor IXa, factor VIIa and/or plasma kallikrein.

This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and methods of using the same.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Factor XIa is a plasma serine protease involved in the regulation of blood coagulation. While blood coagulation is a necessary and important part of the regulation of an organism's homeostasis, abnormal blood coagulation can also have deleterious effects. For instance, thrombosis is the formation or presence of a blood clot inside a blood vessel or cavity of the heart. Such a blood clot can lodge in a blood vessel blocking circulation and inducing a heart attack or stroke. Thromboembolic disorders are the largest cause of mortality and disability in the industrialized world.
Blood coagulation is initiated in vivo by the binding of tissue factor (TF) to Factor VII (FVII) to generate Factor VIIa (FVIIa). The resulting TF:FVIIa complex activates Factor IX (FIX) and Factor X (FX) which leads to the production of Factor Xa (FXa). The FXa that is generated catalyzes the transformation of prothrombin into small amounts of thrombin before this pathway is shut down by tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). The process of coagulation is then further propagated via the feedback activation of Factors V, VIII and XI by catalytic amounts of thrombin. (Walsh, P. N. Thromb. Haemostasis. 1999, 82, 234-242.) Factor XIa plays a key role in propagating this amplification loop and is thus an attractive target for anti-thrombotic therapy.
An alternative way of initiation of coagulation is operative when blood is exposed to artificial surfaces (e.g., during hemodialysis, ‘on-pump’ cardiovascular surgery, vessel grafts, bacterial sepsis). This process is also termed contact activation. Surface absorption of factor XII leads to a conformational change in the factor XII molecule, thereby facilitating activation to proteolytic active factor XII molecules (factor XIIa and factor XIIf). Factor XIIa (or XIIf) has a number of target proteins, including plasma prekallikrein and factor XI. Active plasma kallikrein further activates factor XII, leading to an amplification of contact activation. Contact activation is a surface mediated process responsible in part for the regulation of thrombosis and inflammation, and is mediated, at least in part, by fibrinolytic-, complement-, kininogen/kinin-, and other humoral and cellular pathways (for review, Coleman, R. Contact Activation Pathway, pages 103-122 in Hemostasis and Thrombosis, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins 2001; Schmaier A. H. Contact Activation, pages 105-128 in Thrombosis and Hemorrhage, 1998).
Factor XI is a zymogen of a trypsin-like serine protease and is present in plasma at a relatively low concentration. Proteolytic activation at an internal R369-I370 bond yields a heavy chain (369 amino acids) and a light chain (238 amino acids). The latter contains a typical trypsin-like catalytic triad (H413, D464, and S557).
Activation of factor XI by thrombin is believed to occur on negatively charged surfaces, most likely on the surface of activated platelets. Platelets contain high affinity (0.8 nM) specific sites (130-500/platelet) for activated factor XI. After activation, factor XIa remains surface bound and recognizes factor IX as its normal macromolecular substrate. (Galiani, D. Trends Cardiovasc. Med. 2000, 10, 198-204.)
In addition to the feedback activation mechanisms described above, thrombin activates thrombin activated fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), a plasma carboxypeptidase that cleaves C-terminal lysine and arginine residues on fibrin, reducing the ability of fibrin to enhance tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) dependent plasminogen activation. In the presence of antibodies to FXIa, clot lysis can occur more rapidly independent of plasma TAFI concentration. (Bouma, B. N. et al. Thromb. Res. 2001, 101, 329-354.) Thus, inhibitors of factor XIa are expected to be anticoagulant and profibrinolytic.
Genetic evidence indicates that factor XI is not required for normal homeostasis, implying a superior safety profile of the factor XI mechanism compared to competing antithrombotic mechanisms. In contrast to hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency) or hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency), mutations of the factor XI gene causing factor XI deficiency (hemophilia C) result in only a mild to moderate bleeding diathesis characterized primarily by postoperative or posttraumatic, but rarely spontaneous hemorrhage. Postoperative bleeding occurs mostly in tissue with high concentrations of endogenous fibrinolytic activity (e.g., oral cavity, and urogenital system). The majority of the cases are fortuitously identified by preoperative prolongation of APTT (intrinsic system) without any prior bleeding history.
The increased safety of inhibition of XIa as an anticoagulation therapy is further supported by the fact that Factor XI knock-out mice, which have no detectable factor XI protein, undergo normal development, and have a normal life span. No evidence for spontaneous bleeding has been noted. The APTT (intrinsic system) is prolonged in a gene dose-dependent fashion. Interestingly, even after severe stimulation of the coagulation system (tail transection), the bleeding time is not significantly prolonged compared to wild-type and heterozygous litter mates. (Gailiani, D. Frontiers in Bioscience 2001, 6, 201-207; Gailiani, D. et al. Blood Coagulation and Fibrinolysis 1997, 8, 134-144.) Taken together, these observations suggest that high levels of inhibition of factor XIa should be well tolerated. This is in contrast to gene targeting experiments with other coagulation factors.
In vivo activation of factor XI can be determined by complex formation with either C1 inhibitor or alpha 1 antitrypsin. In a study of 50 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), approximately 25% of the patients had values above the upper normal range of the complex ELISA. This study can be viewed as evidence that at least in a subpopulation of patients with AMI, factor XI activation contributes to thrombin formation (Minnema, M. C. et al. Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol. 2000, 20, 2489-2493). A second study establishes a positive correlation between the extent of coronary arteriosclerosis and factor XIa in complex with alpha 1 antitrypsin (Murakami, T. et al. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol 1995, 15, 1107-1113.). In another study, Factor XI levels above the 90th percentile in patients were associated with a 2.2-fold increased risk for venous thrombosis (Meijers, J. C. M. et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2000, 342, 696-701.).
Plasma kallikrein is a zymogen of a trypsin-like serine protease and is present in plasma at 35 to 50 μg/mL. The gene structure is similar to that of factor XI, overall, the amino acid sequence of plasma kallikrein has 58% homology to factor XI. Proteolytic activation by factor XIIa at an internal I 389-R390 bond yields a heavy chain (371 amino acids) and a light chain (248 amino acids). The active site of kallikrein is contained in the light chain. The light chain of plasma kallikrein reacts with protease inhibitors, including alpha 2 macroglobulin and C1-inhibitor. Interestingly, heparin significantly accelerates the inhibition of plasma kallikrein by antithrombin III in the presence of high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK). In blood, the majority of plasma kallikrein circulates in complex with HMWK. Kallikrein cleaves HMWK to liberate bradykinin. Bradykinin release results in increase of vascular permeability and vasodilation (for review, Coleman, R. Contact Activation Pathway, pages 103-122 in Hemostasis and Thrombosis, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins 2001; Schmaier A. H. Contact Activation, pages 105-128 in Thrombosis and Hemorrhage, 1998).
Proteins or peptides that reportedly inhibit Factor XIa are disclosed in WO 01/27079. There are advantages in using small organic compounds, however, in preparing pharmaceuticals, e.g., small compounds generally have better oral bioavailability and compatibility in making formulations to aid in delivery of the drug as compared with large proteins or peptides. Small molecule inhibitors of Factor XIa are disclosed in U.S. patent application Publication US20040235847A1 and U.S. patent application Publication US20040220206A1.
Moreover, it is also desirable to find new compounds with improved pharmacological characteristics compared with known serine protease inhibitors. For example, it is preferred to find new compounds with improved factor XIa inhibitory activity and selectivity for factor XIa versus other serine proteases. Also, it is preferred to find new compounds with improved plasma kallikrein inhibitory activity and selectivity for plasma kallikrein versus other serine proteases. It is also desirable and preferable to find compounds with advantageous and improved characteristics in one or more of the following categories, but are not limited to: (a) pharmaceutical properties; (b) dosage requirements; (c) factors which decrease blood concentration peak-to-trough characteristics; (d) factors that increase the concentration of active drug at the receptor; (e) factors that decrease the liability for clinical drug-drug interactions; (f) factors that decrease the potential for adverse side-effects; and (g) factors that improve manufacturing costs or feasibility.

The heterocyclic rings described herein may be substituted on carbon or on a nitrogen atom if the resulting compound is stable. A nitrogen in the heterocycle may optionally be quatermized. It is preferred that when the total number of S and O atoms in the heterocycle exceeds 1, then these heteroatoms are not adjacent to one another. It is preferred that the total number of S and O atoms in the heterocycle is not more than 1. When the term “heterocycle” is used, it is intended to include heteroaryl.
Examples of heterocycles include, but are not limited to, acridinyl, azocinyl, benzimidazolyl, benzofuranyl, benzothiofuranyl, benzoxazolyl, benzoxazolinyl, benzthiazolyl, benztriazolyl, benztetrazolyl, benzisoxazolyl, benzisothiazolyl, benzirnidazolinyl, carbazolyl, 4aH-carbazolyl, carbolinyl, chromanyl, chromenyl, cinnolinyl, decahydroquinolinyl, 2H,6H-1,5,2-dithiazinyl, dihydrofuro[2,3-b]tetrahydrofuran, furanyl, furazanyl, imidazolidinyl, imidazolinyl, imidazolyl, 1H-indazolyl, indolenyl, indolinyl, indolizinyl, indolyl, 3H-indolyl, isatinoyl, isobenzofuranyl, isochromanyl, isoindazolyl, isoindolinyl, isoindolyl, isoquinolinyl, isothiazolyl, isothiazolopyridinyl, isoxazolyl, isoxazolopyridinyl, methylenedioxyphenyl, morpholinyl, naphthyridinyl, octahydroisoquinolinyl, oxadiazolyl, 1,2,3-oxadiazolyl, 1,2,4-oxadiazolyl, 1,2,5-oxadiazolyl, 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl, oxazolidinyl, oxazolyl, oxindolyl, pyrimidinyl, phenanthridinyl, phenanthrolinyl, phenazinyl, phenothiazinyl, phenoxathinyl, phenoxazinyl, phthalazinyl, piperazinyl, piperidinyl, piperidonyl, 4-piperidonyl, piperonyl, pteridinyl, purinyl, pyranyl, pyrazinyl, pyrazolidinyl, pyrazolinyl, pyrazolyl, pyridazinyl, pyridooxazole, pyridoimidazole, pyridothiazole, pyridinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrrolidinyl, pyrrolinyl, 2-pyrrolidonyl, 2H-pyrrolyl, pyrrolyl, quinazolinyl, quinolinyl, 4H-quinolizinyl, quinoxalinyl, quinuclidinyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, tetrahydroisoquinolinyl, tetrahydroquinolinyl, tetrazolyl, 6H-1,2,5-thiadiazinyl, 1,2,3-thiadiazolyl, 1,2,4-thiadiazolyl, 1,2,5-thiadiazolyl, 1,3,4-thiadiazolyl, thianthrenyl, thiazolyl, thienyl, thienothiazolyl, thienooxazolyl, thienoimidazolyl, thiophenyl, triazinyl, 1,2,3-triazolyl, 1,2,4-triazolyl, 1,2,5-triazolyl, 1,3,4-triazolyl, and xanthenyl. Also included are fused ring and spiro compounds containing, for example, the above heterocycles.
Preferred 5- to 10-membered heterocycles include, but are not limited to, pyridinyl, fuiranyl, thienyl, pyrrolyl, pyrazolyl, pyrazinyl, piperazinyl, piperidinyl, imidazolyl, imidazolidinyl, indolyl, tetrazolyl, isoxazolyl, morpholinyl, oxazolyl, oxazolidinyl, tetrahydrofuranyl, thiadiazinyl, thiadiazolyl, thiazolyl, triazinyl, triazolyl, benzimidazolyl, 1H-indazolyl, benzofuranyl, benzothiofuranyl, benztetrazolyl, benzotriazolyl, benzisoxazolyl, benzoxazolyl, oxindolyl, benzoxazolinyl, benzthiazolyl, benzisothiazolyl, isatinoyl, isoquinolinyl, octahydroisoquinolinyl, tetrahydroisoquinolinyl, tetrahydroquinolinyl, isoxazolopyridinyl, quinazolinyl, quinolinyl, isothiazolopyridinyl, thiazolopyridinyl, oxazolopyridinyl, imidazolopyridinyl, and pyrazolopyridinyl.

Also included are fused ring and spiro compounds containing, for example, the above heterocycles.
As used herein, the term “aromatic heterocyclic group” or “heteroaryl” is intended to mean a stable monocyclic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that include at least one heteroatom ring member such as sulfur, oxygen, or nitrogen. Heteroaryl groups include, without limitation, pyridyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrazinyl, pyridazinyl, triazinyl, fuiryl, quinolyl, isoquinolyl, thienyl, imidazolyl, thiazolyl, indolyl, pyrroyl, oxazolyl, benzofuryl, benzothienyl, benzthiazolyl, isoxazolyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, tetrazolyl, indazolyl, 1,2,4-thiadiazolyl, isothiazolyl, purinyl, carbazolyl, benzimidazolyl, indolinyl, benzodioxolanyl, benzodioxane, and the like. Heteroaryl groups can be substituted or unsubstituted. The nitrogen atom may be substituted or unsubstituted (i.e., N or NR wherein R is H or another substituent, if defined). The nitrogen and sulfur heteroatoms may optionally be oxidized (i.e., N→O and S(O)p). It is to be noted that total number of S and O atoms in the aromatic heterocycle is not more than 1. Bridged rings are also included in the definition of heterocycle. A bridged ring occurs when one or more atoms (i.e., C, O, N, or S) link two non-adjacent carbon or nitrogen atoms. Preferred bridges include, but are not limited to, one carbon atom, two carbon atoms, one nitrogen atom, two nitrogen atoms, and a carbon-nitrogen group. It is noted that a bridge always converts a monocyclic ring into a tricyclic ring. When a ring is bridged, the substituents recited for the ring may also be present on the bridge.
The term “counterion” is used to represent a small, negatively charged species such as chloride, bromide, hydroxide, acetate, and sulfate.
As referred to herein, the term “substituted” means that one or more hydrogen atoms is replaced with a non-hydrogen group, provided that normal valencies are maintained and that the substitution results in a stable compound. When a substituent is keto (i.e., ═O), then 2 hydrogens on the atom are replaced. Keto substituents are not present on aromatic moieties. When a ring system (e.g., carbocyclic or heterocyclic) is said to be substituted with a carbonyl group or a double bond, it is intended that the carbonyl group or double bond be part (i.e., within) of the ring.
When any variable (e.g., R2a, R2b, etc.) occurs more than one time in any constituent or formula for a compound, its definition at each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence. Thus, for example, if a group is shown to be substituted with 0-3 R2b, then said group may optionally be substituted with up to three R2b groups and R2b at each occurrence is selected independently from the definition of R2b. Also, combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.
When a bond to a substituent is shown to cross a bond connecting two atoms in a ring, then such substituent may be bonded to any atom on the ring. When a substituent is listed without indicating the atom via which such substituent is bonded to the rest of the compound of a given formula, then such substituent may be bonded via any atom in such substituent. Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.
When a dotted ring is used within a 5- to 8-membered ring structure, this indicates that the ring structure may be saturated, partially saturated or unsaturated.
As used herein, the term “protecting group” for amines means any group known in the art of organic synthesis for the protection of amine groups which is stable to an ester reducing agent, a disubstituted hydrazine, R4-M and R7-M, a nucleophile, a hydrazine reducing agent, an activator, a strong base, a hindered amine base and a cyclizing agent. Such amine protecting groups fitting these criteria include those listed in Greene and Wuts, “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” John Wiley & Sons, New York (1991) and “The Peptides: Analysis, Synthesis, Biology, Vol. 3, Academic Press, New York (1981), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Examples of amine protecting groups include, but are not limited to, the following: (Fmoc); (1) acyl types such as formyl, trifluoroacetyl, phthalyl, and p-toluenesulfonyl; (2) aromatic carbamate types such as benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) and substituted benzyloxycarbonyls, 1-(p-biphenyl)-1-methylethoxycarbonyl, and 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc); (3) aliphatic carbamate types such as tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), ethoxycarbonyl, diisopropylmethoxycarbonyl, and allyloxycarbonyl; (4) cyclic alkyl carbamate types such as cyclopentyloxycarbonyl and adamantyloxycarbonyl; (5) alkyl types such as triphenylmethyl and benzyl; (6) trialkylsilane such as trimethylsilane; (7) thiol containing types such as phenylthiocarbonyl and dithiasuccinoyl; and (8) alkyl types such as triphenylmethyl, methyl, and benzyl; and substituted alkyl types such as 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, 2-phenylethyl, and t-butyl; and trialkylsilane types such as trimethylsilane.
The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable” is employed herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to acid or base salts of the compounds described herein. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the invention can be prepared by reacting the free acid or base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two; generally, nonaqueous media like ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are preferred. Lists of suitable salts are found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, p. 1418, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. Such conventional non-toxic salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, nitric, and the like; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, isethionic, and the like.
In addition, compounds of formula I may have prodrug forms. Any compound that will be converted in vivo to provide the bioactive agent (i.e., a compound of formula I) is a prodrug within the scope and spirit of the invention. Various forms of prodrugs are well known in the art. For examples of such prodrug derivatives, see:

Preparation of prodrugs is well known in the art and described in, for example, Medicinal Chemistry: Principles and Practice, ed. F. D. King, The Royal Society of Chemistry, Cambridge, UK, 1994, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Radiolabelled compounds of the present invention, i.e., wherein one or more of the atoms described are replaced by a radioactive isotope of that atom (e.g., C replaced by 13C or by 14C; and isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium), are also provided herein. Such compounds have a variety of potential uses, e.g., as standards and reagents in determining the ability of a potential pharmaceutical to bind to target proteins or receptors, or for imaging compounds of this invention bound to biological receptors in vivo or in vitro.
Compounds of the present invention are, subsequent to their preparation, preferably isolated and purified to obtain a composition containing an amount by weight equal to or greater than 98%, preferably 99%, compound of the present invention (“substantially pure”), which is then used or formulated as described herein. Such “substantially pure” compounds are also contemplated herein as part of the present invention.
“Stable compound” and “stable structure” are meant to indicate a compound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation to a useful degree of purity from a reaction mixture, and formulation into an efficacious therapeutic agent. It is preferred that compounds of the present invention do not contain a N-halo, S(O)2H, or S(O)H group.
It should further be understood that solvates (e.g., hydrates) of the compounds of the present invention are also with the scope of the present invention. Methods of solvation are generally known in the art.
As used herein, “treating” or “treatment” cover the treatment of a disease-state in a mammal, particularly in a human, and include: (a) preventing the disease-state from occurring in a mammal, in particular, when such mammal is predisposed to the disease-state but has not yet been diagnosed as having it; (b) inhibiting the disease-state, i.e., arresting it development; and/or (c) relieving the disease-state, i.e., causing regression of the disease state.
“Therapeutically effective amount” is intended to include an amount of a compound of the present invention that is effective when administered alone or in combination to inhibit factor XIa and/or plasma kallikrein. “Therapeutically effective amount” is also intended to include an amount of the combination of compounds claimed that is effective to inhibit factor XIa and/or plasma kallikrein. The combination of compounds is preferably a synergistic combination. Synergy, as described, for example, by Chou and Talalay, Adv. Enzyme Regul. 1984, 22:27-55, occurs when the effect (in this case, inhibition of factor XIa and/or plasma kallikrein) of the compounds when administered in combination is greater than the additive effect of the compounds when administered alone as a single agent. In general, a synergistic effect is most clearly demonstrated at sub-optimal concentrations of the compounds. Synergy can be in terms of lower cytotoxicity, increased antithrombotic and/or anti-inflammatory effect, or some other beneficial effect of the combination compared with the individual components.
The present invention further includes compositions comprising one or more compounds of the present invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to media generally accepted in the art for the delivery of biologically active agents to animals, in particular, mammals. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are formulated according to a number of factors well within the purview of those of ordinary skill in the art. These include, without limitation: the type and nature of the active agent being formulated; the subject to which the agent-containing composition is to be administered; the intended route of administration of the composition; and the therapeutic indication being targeted. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include both aqueous and non-aqueous liquid media, as well as a variety of solid and semi-solid dosage forms. Such carriers can include a number of different ingredients and additives in addition to the active agent, such additional ingredients being included in the formulation for a variety of reasons, e.g., stabilization of the active agent, binders, etc., well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Descriptions of suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, and factors involved in their selection, are found in a variety of readily available sources such as, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 1985, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Synthesis
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared in a number of ways known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis. The compounds of the present invention can be synthesized using the methods described below, together with synthetic methods known in the art of synthetic organic chemistry, or by variations thereon as appreciated by those skilled in the art. Preferred methods include, but are not limited to, those described below. The reactions are performed in a solvent appropriate to the reagents and materials employed and suitable for the transformations being effected. It will be understood by those skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on the molecule should be consistent with the transformations proposed. This will sometimes require a judgment to modify the order of the synthetic steps or to select one particular process scheme over another in order to obtain a desired compound of the invention. Also, in the description of the synthetic methods described below, it is to be understood that all proposed reaction conditions, including choice of solvent, reaction atmosphere, reaction temperature, duration of the experiment and workup procedures, are chosen to be the conditions standard for that reaction, which should be readily recognized by one skilled in the art. It is understood by one skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on various portions of the molecule must be compatible with the reagents and reactions proposed. Such restrictions to the substituents that are compatible with the reaction conditions will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art and alternate methods must then be used.
It will also be recognized that another major consideration in the planning of any synthetic route in this field is the judicious choice of the protecting group(s) (PG) used for protection of the reactive functional groups present in the compounds described in this invention. An authoritative account describing the many alternatives to the trained practitioner is Greene and Wuts (Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis, Wiley-Interscience, 3rd Edition, 1999).
All references cited herein are hereby incorporated in their entirety herein by reference.
Imidazole compounds useful for the synthesis of the compounds of this invention may be synthesized according to the general method outlined in Scheme 1 (Con tour-Galcera et al. Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2001, 11(5), 741-745). An appropriately protected or derivatized alpha amino acid [1; Y═R10(PG)N— or Y=AC(O)N(R10)—] or malonic acid derivative [1; Y=alkyl-OC(O)—] is dissolved in an suitable solvent, such as ethanol/water (1:1), and treated with a base, such as cesium carbonate, to form the cesium salt. The salt is isolated and re-suspended in a suitable solvent, such as dimethyl formamide, and combined with an alpha-bromoketone 2 to form the keto ester 3. Alternatively, formation of keto ester 3 (X=aryl or heteroaryl) may be carried out in a single reaction vessel by forming the cesium salt of 1 in the same solvent (e.g., dimethyl formamide) used for the alkylation step.
The imidazole having structure 4 is formed by heating the keto ester 3 to reflux in a suitable solvent, such as xylenes, in the presence of excess ammonium acetate using a Dean-Stark trap to remove water. Formation of the imidazole can also be carried out by combining the keto ester 3 and ammonium acetate in a suitable solvent, such as xylene or ethanol or a combination of solvents such as dimethylforamide and ethanol (1:1), using microwave heating. When Y═R10(PG)N—, the protecting group on the amine is removed in preparation for acylation of the amine, which is outlined in Scheme 18. For example, when the protecting group is a BOC moiety, the amine is de-protected with strong acid, such as trifluoroacetic acid in suitable solvent, such as dichloromethane, to give compound 5, where Y′═R10HN—. When Y═Alk-OCO—, the ester may be hydrolyzed by dissolving it in a suitable solvent such as methanol and treating the ester with a base such as aqueous sodium hydroxide to give 5 where Y═—CO2H.
Further functional group incorporation on to the imidazole ring may be achieved by bromination of the C-5 carbon of the imidazole ring using, for example, bromine or N-bromosuccinimide, in a suitable solvent such as methylene chloride or chloroform to give compounds 6 and 9. Alternatively, the C-5 carbon may be chlorinated with, for example, N-chlorosuccinimide, using a suitable solvent such as methylene chloride, acetonitrile or chloroform to give compounds 7 and 10.
The brominated imidazoles 6 and 9 provide suitable functionality for further elaboration using a wide variety of palladium catalyzed cross coupling procedures known to those skilled in the art such as described by Tsuji (Palladium Reagents and Catalysts: New Perspectives for the 21st Century, John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2004). By way of example, application of a Suzuki coupling protocol using a modified method of Zhong et al. (Org. Lett. 2004, 6, 929-931) and Bellina et al. (Synthesis 2004, 15, 2419-2440), where the bromides 6 or 9 are combined with a boronic acid in the presence of a base, typically tribasic potassium phosphate or sodium carbonate, and a palladium catalyst, typically bis-(tri-t-butylphosphine)palladium (0), tris-(dibenzylidene-acetone)palladium (0), or tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0), in a suitable solvent, such as toluene or 1,4-dioxane heated to between 80-110° C. using conventional or microwave heating, provides structures 8 and 11, where X=aryl or heteroaryl.




An alternate synthesis of the imidazole core is shown in Scheme 2. A suitably protected beta amino aldehyde 12, glyoxal trimeric dihydrate 13 and ammonia are combined in a suitable solvent such as methanol and stirred together at room temperature. The resulting imidazole 14 is dissolved in a suitable solvent such as chloroform and brominated using, for example, N-bromosuccinimide. Other brominating reagents may be employed, such as bromine, and other solvents suitable for bromination conditions, such as methylene chloride or carbon tetrachloride, may be used. The 4,5-dibromo imidazole 15 is treated with a reducing agent such as sodium hydrogen sulfite utilizing a biphasic solvent system consisting of, for example, 1,4-dioxane and water, and a phase transfer catalyst such as tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate. The mono-bromide 16 thus produced may be combined with a suitably functionalized aryl boronic acid or heteroaryl boronic acid in a suitable solvent such as 1,4-dioxane or toluene, and treated at elevated temperature with a reagent combination consisting of, for example, palladium (I) tri-tert-butylphosphine bromide dimer and tribasic potassium phosphate according to a modified procedure of Zhong et al. and Bellini et al. referenced previously. Other reagent combinations that may be utilized for the Suzuki coupling procedure are palladium tris-(dibenzylidene-acetone) palladium (0), tri-(tert-butyl)-phosphonium tetra-fluoroborate, and tribasic potassium phosphate. The protecting group on the amine is removed in preparation for acylation of the amine, which is outlined in Scheme 17. For example, when the protecting group is a BOC moiety, the amine is de-protected with strong acid, such as trifluoroacetic acid, in suitable solvent, such as dichloromethane, to give amine 18 as the bis-TFA salt.




Another alternative method for the synthesis of the imidazole ring is shown in Scheme 3. 3,3-Dibromo-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-one (19) is combined with ammonium acetate in a suitable solvent such as water and heated to 90°, followed by the addition of a suitably protected aldehyde 12. The trifluoromethyl imidazole thus produced provides an intermediate for the synthesis of C-5 trifluoro methyl analogs illustrated by compound 24, where X═CF3. Such compounds may be accessed by methods previously illustrated in Schemes 1 and 2. Alternatively, the trifluoromethyl moiety may be hydrolyzed under strongly basic conditions using, for example sodium methoxide, to provide the ortho ester which is hydrolyzed to the methyl ester 21, where X═—CO2CH3. This intermediate may be utilized using procedures already illustrated in Schemes 1 and 2 to access compounds such as 24, where X═—CO2CH3.




Phenylalanine analogs bearing substituents on the phenyl ring not commercially available are readily accessed using methods known to those skilled in the art. For an authoritative review of methods for the synthesis of such analogs starting from glycine see Maruoka and Ooi (Chem. Rev. 2003, 103, 3013-3028).
Certain 2-bromoacetophenone analogs that are not commercially available may be synthesized from commercially available starting materials. For example, ethyl 2-(4-(2-bromoacetyl)phenyl)acetate (27: R3a═R3b═H) can be prepared as shown in Scheme 4. 2,4′-dibromoacetophenone (25: R3a═R3b═H), and ethyl bromoacetate (26) are dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofaran, and treated at elevated temperature with a combination of reagents, such as palladium (II) acetate, tris-(1-naphthyl)phosphine and tri-basic potassium phosphate according to the method of Gossen et al (Chem. Commun. 2001, 669-670). The intermediate, ethyl 2-(4-acetylphenyl)acetate (27) is brominated by dissolving in a suitable solvent such as chloroform and treating with a brominating reagent such as bromine to give ethyl 2-(4-(2-bromoacetyl)phenyl)acetate (28). This reaction sequence may also be employed to prepare the other regioisomers and analogs of 28 containing functional groups compatible with the reaction sequence described.




Certain functional groups present in the final structures must, by virtue of incompatibility with the formation of the imidazole shown in Schemes 1-3, be incorporated into the structure after the imidazole ring has been formed. Examples of such functional groups include, but are not limited to, carbamoyl, aminoindazolyl, aminobenzisoxazolyl, and aminoquinazolinoyl (see Schemes 5 and 6).
The carbamoyl group, illustrated in structure 29 in Scheme 5, may be incorporated into the final structure by hydrolysis of a nitrile using, for example, potassium carbonate, hydrogen peroxide, and DMSO as solvent, according to the method of Katritzky et al. (Synthesis 1989, 12, 949-50). When the nitrile is located para to the imidazole ring, magnesium oxide must be added to the reaction mixture. The amidine group, illustrated in structure 31, may be incorporated into the final structure via Pinner reaction followed by ammonolysis. Alternatively, the nitrile 28 may be combined with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine, to give the amidoxime 32, which after acetylation with acetic anhydride is reduced by a variety of methods including, but not limited by, catalytic hydrogenation using, for example, palladium on carbon and hydrogen (Judkins et al. Syn. Comm. 1996, 26, 4351-4367), or by using an active metal such as zinc. By way of illustration, the precursor nitrile group shown in structure 28 in Scheme 5 may be incorporated on to the intermediate structure(s) by using, in separate reactions, 4-(2-bromo-acetyl)-benzonitrile, 3-(2-bromo-acetyl)-benzonitrile, or 2-(2-bromo-acetyl)-benzonitrile for the reagent described as BrCH2C(O)X in Scheme 1.




The aminoindazole, aminobenzisoxazole and aminoquinazoline functional groups may be incorporated into the final structure using a common intermediate containing a phenyl ring bearing an ortho fluoro nitrile as illustrated in structure 33 (Scheme 6). The amino-indazole functional group (34) is produced, for example, by heating 33 with hydrazine monohydrate in a suitable solvent, such as n-butanol. Heating may be done conventially or via microwave irradiation, and the temperature required for conversion of the ortho fluoro nitrile to the aminoindazole depends upon the regioisomeric relationship between the ortho fluoro nitrile and the imidazole ring. Typically, temperatures of 160° C. are required for formation of the amino-indazole when the nitrile is located para to the imidazole ring. The aminoquinazoline (35) is produced by combining the ortho-fluoronitrile (33) with formamidine acetate, or other suitable salt forms, in a suitable solvent such as dimethyl acetamide or dimethyl formamide, and heating to approximately 140° C. Conversion of the ortho-fluoronitrile to the aminobenzisoxazole (36) may be accomplished by combining the fluoro nitrile 33 with acetoxyhydroxamic acid in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate.




A general synthesis of alpha bromoketones containing an ortho fluoro nitrile is illustrated in Scheme 7. A suitably substituted bromo-fluoro-benzoic acid (37) is converted to the corresponding nitrile 38 using, for example, zinc cyanide and palladium (0) tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine) in a suitable solvent, such as dimethyl formamide, and heating to 90° C. The nitrile 38 thus produced is treated sequentially with oxalyl chloride in a suitable solvent, such as dichloromethane, containing a few drops of DMF, then treated with trimethylsilyldiazomethane in a suitable solvent or solvent combination, such as acetonitrile and hexane. The intermediate diazoketone is isolated and treated with hydrobromic acid and acetic acid to provide the alpha bromoketone 39.




Alternatively, the bromoketone 39 may be synthesized from a suitably substituted ortho fluoro nitrile containing a bromide (40 Scheme 8) by treatment sequentially with tributyl-(1-methoxyvinyl)stannane and a palladium catalyst, such as bis-(triphenylphosphine)-dichloro-palladium (II), in a suitable solvent, such as toluene, and heated to reflux, followed by aqueous hydrochloric acid, typically at 5% (w/v) concentration. The resulting methyl ketone 41 is combined with bromine in a suitable solvent, such as chloroform or methylene chloride, to produce the bromoketone 39. Alternate synthetic routes to 39 other than those illustrated in Schemes 7 and 8 may be envisioned by one skilled in the art depending on the regioisomers commercially available for possible combinations of R3a and R3b contained on the carbocylic ring.




A different sequence of chemical transformations provides for the synthesis of a second regioisomer of the imidazoles useful in the preparation of compounds of this invention as shown in Scheme 9. An alpha-bromoketone 42 containing suitable substitution is combined with sodium formate in a suitable solvent, such as ethanol, and heated to reflux. The keto ester 43 thus formed is dissolved in a solvent, for example ethanol, and combined with a suitably substituted amidine 44 (X=aryl or heteroaryl) in the presence of a base, for example sodium bicarbonate. The imidazole 45 thus formed has the opposite regio-configuration compared to the imidazoles illustrated in Schemes 1-3. Removal of the amine protecting group, PG, in preparation for acylation of the amino group is carried out as described previously to give the amino imidazole 46.




Benzimidazole compounds useful for preparing compounds of this invention can be synthesized according to the general procedure shown in Scheme 10. A suitably protected amino acid and a suitably substituted phenyl diamine 22 are dissolved in a solvent, for example pyridine, and treated with an amide bond forming reagent, such as BOP-reagent. The reaction mixture is heated to 80° C. to effect ring closure to the benzimidazole 23. The protecting group on the amine is removed as before in preparation for acylation of the amine, as outlined below in Scheme 17.




A general procedure for the synthesis of oxazoles having substituents in the 2- and 4-positions useful for the synthesis of compounds of this invention is shown in Scheme 6. A suitably protected amino acid 1 and beta-keto amine 50 (X=aryl or heteroaryl) are dissolved in a suitable solvent, for example pyridine, and treated with amide coupling reagent, for example BOP reagent, at room temperature. The keto amide 51 thus formed is dehydrated by dissolving in a suitable solvent such as DMF and treating the solution with phosphorous oxychloride at elevated temperature (Sow et al. J. Org. Chem. 1990, 55, 386). The oxazole 52 is deprotected in preparation for acylation of the amine 53, which is outlined in Scheme 17.




Suitably functionalized triazoles useful for the synthesis of compounds of this invention can be synthesized according to the procedure outlined in Scheme 12. A suitably protected amino acid 1 and hydrazine are dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as pyridine, and treated with an amide bond forming reagent. The resulting hydrazoic acid 54 is condensed with a suitably substituted imidate 55 (X=aryl or heteroaryl). When the imidate is in the form of a hydrochloride salt, addition of a base such as triethylamine is required. Solvents such as acetonitrile may be employed. The triazole 56 thus formed is deprotected to provide amine 57, which is used in Scheme 17 below. For example, when the protecting group is a BOC moiety, the amine is de-protected with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane to give amine 53 as the bis-TFA salt.




Suitably substituted pyrazoles useful for the synthesis of compounds of this invention may be synthesized using the procedures shown in Scheme 13 (Shunsaku Ohta et al. Chem. Pharm. Bull. 1981, 29 (10), 2762). A suitably substituted β-keto ester 58 (X=aryl or heteroaryl) is dissolved in a suitable solvent and the ester hydrolyzed with, for example, sodium hydroxide. The magnesium salt (60) of the beta keto acid 59 is formed by dissolving the acid in a suitable solvent such as methanol and THF followed by addition of magnesium ethoxide. In a separate reaction sequence, the carboxylic acid of a suitably protected amino acid 1 (Y═R10N(PG)-) is activated with, for example, carbonyl diimidazole to give the activated amino acid 61 (LG=imidazol-1-yl in this illustration). Compound 60 and 61 are combined in a suitable solvent, for example DMF, to give the beta diketone 62. Treatment of 62 with hydrazine at elevated temperatures affords the pyrazole 63. When the amino group of 64 is protected with a CBz moiety, the protecting group may be removed by catalytic hydrogenation using, for example, palladium on carbon and elemental hydrogen to give amine 64.




A general procedure for the formation of substituted triazolones useful for the synthesis of compounds of this invention is shown in Scheme 14. A suitably substituted protected beta-amino nitrile 65 is treated with the sodium salt of an alcohol, for example sodium methoxide, to form the imidate 66. The imidate 66 is reacted with a suitably substituted hydrazine 67 (X=aryl or heteroaryl) to form the amino amidine 68 (Yanagisawa et al. J Med. Chem. 1984, 27(7), 849). Treatment of 68 with a bis-activated carbonyl such as carbonyl diimidazole (LG=imidazol-1-yl) provides the triazolone 69. Deprotection of the amino group of 69 is carried out in preparation for acylation of the nitrogen, which is outlined in Scheme 17. For example, when the amine is protected with a CBz moiety, the protecting group may be removed using catalytic hydrogenation using, for example, palladium on carbon and hydrogen or, alternatively, by treatment with HBr in HOAC or neat TFA to give amine 70.




The synthesis of imidazoles substituted with fused ring heterocycles in the 4-position is shown in Scheme 15. A suitably protected and functionalized 4-trifluoromethyl imidazole 71 is available according to the chemistry outlined in Scheme 3. The imidazole 71 is dissolved in a suitable solvent such as methanol and heated in the presence of a base such as sodium methoxide. The methyl ester 72 thus formed is dissolved in a suitable solvent, for example, tetrahydrofuran, and combined with an aniline 47 substituted in the ortho position with either hydroxy, amino, mono alkyl amino or thiol. The aniline employed may have additional substituents, R3a and R3e, known to those skilled in the art to be compatible with the reaction conditions. The two reactants are treated with a protic acid, for example, para-toluene sulfonic acid, to effect addition of the aniline and subsequent cyclization and dehydration to form the fused heterocycle 74. The amine protecting group is removed in preparation for acylation of the amine, which is outlined in Scheme 17. When the protecting group is a BOC moiety, the amine is de-protected with strong acid such as trifluoroacetic acid or HCl in suitable solvent such as dichloromethane or dioxane to give amine 75 as the bis-TFA salt.




Thiazol-2-yl imidazole derivatives useful for the synthesis of compounds of this invention can be prepared as shown in Scheme 16. A suitably substituted ester 76 and a beta amino thiol such as cysteine methyl ester 77 are combined in a suitable solvent such as tetrahydrofuran and treated with a protic acid such as camphor sulfonic acid. Other beta amino thiols having functional groups compatible with these conditions may be employed in this reaction. The resulting thiazolidine 78 is oxidized to the thiazole 79 using, for example, manganese dioxide. Other suitable oxidants may be employed in this step such as 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone. The amino group of 79 is deprotected in preparation for acylation. For example, when the protecting group is a BOC moiety, the amine is de-protected with strong acid such as trifluoroacetic acid in suitable solvent such as dichloromethane to give amine 80 as the bis-TFA salt.




Each of the aforementioned reaction Schemes 1-3 and 9-16 produce a heterocycle containing an aminoalkyl side chain suitable for reacting with suitably substituted carboxylic acids, for example, N-Boc tranexamic acid or 4-cyanobenzoic acid, under standard amide bond coupling conditions (Scheme 17A). Reagent combinations commonly employed for this transformation may be used and include, but are not limited to: BOP-reagent and pyridine; EDCI, HOAt, N-methyl morpholine; or EDCI, HOBt, N-methyl morpholine. Solvents suitable for this transformation include, but are not limited to, pyridine, THF and dimethylformamide. Solvent combinations may also be used such as dichloromethane and DMF in ratios suitable to achieve solubility of the reagents employed. Alternately, the amines from Schemes 1-3 and 9-16 can be reacted with suitable substituted alkylating agents or sulfonyl halides, using methods known to one skilled in the art. It should be recognized that additional deprotection steps and further functional group manipulations of compounds obtained via Scheme 17 using methods known in the art will then provide additional compounds of this invention.
Alternatively, when the heterocycle contains a aliphatic carboxylic acid containing side chain, amide bond formation may be effected by reaction with a suitably substituted amine or aniline with the reagent combinations described herein (Scheme 17B).




A suitably substituted carboxylic acid (A-CO2H) is used in the amide coupling shown in Scheme 17A. Many of these carboxylic acids are commercially available. In case where the carboxylic acids are not commercially available, they can be prepared from the corresponding bromide 87, alcohol 85, aldehyde 88, or ester 89 as shown in Scheme 18 using methods known in the art. The R1 and R2 groups can be further manipulated using methods known in the art to provide additional compounds of this invention. For example, the cyano group can be used as R1, which can be reduced to give CH2NH2 with a suitable reducing agent or converted to the amidine by reaction with hydroxylamine, and followed by palladium catalyzed hydrogenation using methods described previously.




When A is an isoquinoline moiety a modified procedure from U.S. 2004/0077865 is followed. Heating the 2-methyl benzonitrile derivative 90 with 1-(t-butoxy)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylmethanediamine in a suitable solvent such as DMF gives the enamine 91. Condensation of enamine 91 and 2,4-dimethoxybenzylamine in DMPU at elevated temperatures gives the 1-imino-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline skeleton and subsequent hydrolysis provides 92. Debenzylation of 92 with anisole in TFA at elevated temperatures provides 1-amino-isoquinoline 93. When A is a 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinoline moiety a modified procedure of McEachem et al. is followed (J. Org. Chem. 2002, 67, 7890). Acid 92 is converted to the ester 94. Debenzylation of 94 with anisole in TFA at elevated temperatures and acetylation with acetyl chloride and triethylamine yields 95. Hydrogenation over platinum oxide in the presence of TFA provides the 1-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinoline. Saponification of the ester with NaOH and hydrolysis of the amide under acidic conditions gives 96.




When A is a 4-aminoquinazoline moiety, heating an appropriately substituted ortho-fluoro benzonitrile 97 with formamidine acetate or acetamidine acetate in DMA, according to a modified procedure of Lam (Lam, P. Y. S. et al. J. Med. Chem. 2003, 46, 4405.), gives 4-aminoquinazoline 98 and 99. Saponification of the ester under basic conditions provides 100 and 101.

Utility 
The compounds of this invention are inhibitors of factor XIa and are useful as anticoagulants for the treatment or prevention of thromboembolic disorders in mammals (i.e., factor XIa-associated disorders). In general, a thromboembolic disorder is a circulatory disease caused by blood clots (i.e., diseases involving fibrin formation, platelet activation, and/or platelet aggregation). The term “thromboembolic disorders” as used herein includes arterial cardiovascular thromboembolic disorders, venous cardiovascular or cerebovascular thromboembolic disorders, and thromboembolic disorders in the chambers of the heart. The term “thromboembolic disorders” as used herein also includes specific disorders selected from, but not limited to, unstable angina or other acute coronary syndromes, atrial fibrillation, first or recurrent myocardial infarction, ischemic sudden death, transient ischemic attack, stroke, atherosclerosis, peripheral occlusive arterial disease, venous thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, arterial embolism, coronary arterial thrombosis, cerebral arterial thrombosis, cerebral embolism, kidney embolism, pulmonary embolism, and thrombosis resulting from (a) prosthetic valves or other implants, (b) indwelling catheters, (c) stents, (d) cardiopulmonary bypass, (e) hemodialysis, or (f) other procedures in which blood is exposed to an artificial surface that promotes thrombosis. It is noted that thrombosis includes occlusion (e.g., after a bypass) and reocclusion (e.g., during or after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty). The thromboembolic disorders may result from conditions including but not limited to atherosclerosis, surgery or surgical complications, prolonged immobilization, arterial fibrillation, congenital thrombophilia, cancer, diabetes, effects of medications or hormones, and complications of pregnancy. The anticoagulant effect of compounds of the present invention is believed to be due to inhibition of serine proteases involved in the coagulation cascade and/or contact activation system, more specifically, inhibition of the coagulation factors: factor XIa, factor VIIa, factor IXa, factor Xa, plasma kallikrein or thrombin.
The compounds of this invention also are inhibitors of plasma kallikrein and are useful as anti-inflammatory agents for the treatment or prevention of diseases associated with an activation of the contact activation system (i.e., plasma kallikrein associated disorders). In general, a contact activation system disorder is a disease caused by-activation of blood on artificial surfaces, including prosthetic valves or other implants, indwelling catheters, stents, cardiopulmonary bypass, hemodialysis, microorganism (e.g., bacteria, virus), or other procedures in which blood is exposed to an artificial surface that promotes contact activation, blood clots (i.e., diseases involving fibrin formation, platelet activation, and/or platelet aggregation). It also includes systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, hereditary angioedema or other inherited or aquired deficencies of contact activation components or their inhibitors (plasma kallikrein, factor XIIa, high molecular weight kininogen, C1-esterase inhibitor). It may also include acute and chronic inflammations of joints, vessels, or other mammalian organs.
The effectiveness of compounds of the present invention as inhibitors of the coagulation factors XIa, VIIa, IXa, Xa, plasma kallikrein or thrombin, can be determined using a relevant purified serine protease, respectively, and an appropriate synthetic substrate. The rate of hydrolysis of the chromogenic or fluorogenic substrate by the relevant serine protease was measured both in the absence and presence of compounds of the present invention. Hydrolysis of the substrate resulted in the release of pNA (para nitroaniline), which was monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the increase in absorbance at 405 nm, or the release of AMC (amino methylcoumarin, which was monitored spectrofluorometrically by measuring the increase in emission at 460 nm with excitation at 380 nm. A decrease in the rate of absorbance or fluorescence change in the presence of inhibitor is indicative of enzyme inhibition. Such methods are known to one skilled in the art. The results of this assay are expressed as the inhibitory constant, Ki.
Factor XIa determinations were made in 50 mM HEPES buffer at pH 7.4 containing 145 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, and 0.1% PEG 8000 (polyethylene glycol; J T Baker or Fisher Scientific). Determinations were made using purified human Factor XIa at a final concentration of 75-200 pM (Haematologic Technologies) and the synthetic substrate S-2366 (pyroGlu-Pro-Arg-pNA; Chromogenix) at a concentration of 0.0002-0.00025 M. In general, preferred compounds of the present invention, such as the particular compounds disclosed in the above examples, have been identified to be active and exhibit Ki's of equal to or less than 15 μM in the Factor XIa assay, thereby demonstrating the utility of the compounds of the present invention as especially effective inhibitors of coagulation Factor XIa. More preferred compounds have Ki's of equal to or less than 5 μM, preferably equal to or less than 1 μM, more preferably equal to or less than 0.5 μM.
Factor VIIa determinations were made in 0.005 M calcium chloride, 0.15 M sodium chloride, 0.05 M HEPES buffer containing 0.5% PEG 8000 at a pH of 7.4. Determinations were made using purified human Factor VIIa (Haematologic Technologies) or recombinant human Factor VIIa (Novo Nordisk) at a final assay concentration of 2-5 nM, recombinant soluble tissue factor at a concentration of 18-35 nM and the synthetic substrate H-D-Ile-Pro-Arg-pNA (S-2288; Chromogenix or BMPM-2; AnaSpec) at a concentration of 0.001 M. In general, compounds tested in the Factor VIIa assay are considered to be active if they exhibit a Ki of equal to or less than 15 μM.
Factor IXa determinations were made in 0.005 M calcium chloride, 0.1 M sodium chloride, 0.05 M TRIS base and 0.5% PEG 8000 at a pH of 7.4. Determinations were made using purified human Factor IXa (Haematologic Technologies) at a final assay concentration of 20-100 nM and the synthetic substrate PCIXA2100-B (CenterChem) or Pefafluor IXa 3688 (H-D-Leu-Ph′Gly-Arg-AMC; CenterChem) at a concentration of 0.0004-0.0005 M. In general, compounds tested in the Factor IXa assay are considered to be active if they exhibit a Ki of equal to or less than 15 μM.
Factor Xa determinations were made in 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer at a pH of 7.4 containing 0.2 M sodium chloride and 0.5% PEG 8000. Determinations were made using purified human Factor Xa (Haematologic Technologies) at a final assay concentration of 150-1000 pM and the synthetic substrate S-2222 (Bz-Ile-Glu (gamma-OMe, 50%)-Gly-Arg-pNA; Chromogenix) at a concentration of 0.0002-0.0003 M. In general, compounds tested in the Factor Xa assay are considered to be active if they exhibit a Ki of equal to or less than 15 μM.
Plasma kallikrein determinations were made in 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer at a pH of 7.4 containing 0.2 M sodium chloride and 0.5% PEG 8000. Determinations were made using purified human kallikrein (Enzyme Research Laboratories) at a final assay concentration of 200 pM and the synthetic substrate S-2302 (H-(D)-Pro-Phe-Arg-pNA; Chromogenix) at a concentration of 0.00008-0.0004 M. The Km value used for calculation of Ki was 0.00005 to 0.00007 M. In general, Compounds tested in the plasma kallikrein assay are considered to be active if they exhibit a Ki of equal to or less than 15 μM.
Thrombin determinations were made in 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer at a pH of 7.4 containing 0.2 M sodium chloride and 0.5% PEG 8000. Determinations were made using purified human alpha thrombin (Haematologic Technologies or Enzyme Research Laboratories) at a final assay concentration of 200-250 pM and the synthetic substrate S-2366 (pyroGlu-Pro-Arg-pNA; Chromogenix) at a concentration of 0.0002 M. In general, compounds tested in the thrombin assay are considered to be active if they exhibit a Ki of equal to or less than 15 μM.
In general, preferred compounds of the present invention have demonstrated Ki values of equal to or less than 15 μM in at least one of the above assays, thereby confirming the utility of the compounds of the present invention as effective inhibitors of the coagulation cascade and/or contact activation system, and useful as anticoagulants for the prevention or treatment of thromboembolic disorders in mammals and/or as anti-inflammatory agents for the prevention or treatment of inflammatory disorders in mammals.
The Michaelis constant,Km, for substrate hydrolysis by each protease was determined at 25° C. using the method of Lineweaver and Burk. Values of Ki were determined by allowing the protease to react with the substrate in the presence of the inhibitor. Reactions were allowed to go for periods of 20-180 minutes (depending on the protease) and the velocities (rate of absorbance or fluorescence change versus time) were measured. The following relationships were used to calculate Ki values:

(vo−vs)/vs=I/(Ki(1+S/Km)) for a competitive inhibitor with one binding site; or

vs/vo=A+((B−A)/1+((IC50/(I)n))) and

Ki=IC50/(1+S/Km) for a competitive inhibitor

    
    
        where:
        vo is the velocity of the control in the absence of inhibitor;
        vs is the velocity in the presence of inhibitor;
        I is the concentration of inhibitor;
        A is the minimum activity remaining (usually locked at zero);
        B is the maximum activity remaining (usually locked at 1.0);
        n is the Hill coefficient, a measure of the number and cooperativity of potential inhibitor binding sites;
        IC50 is the concentration of inhibitor that produces 50% inhibition under the assay conditions;
        Ki is the dissociation constant of the enzyme:inhibitor complex;

The effectiveness of compounds of the present invention as inhibitors of the coagulation factors XIa, VIIa, IXa, Xa, or thrombin, can be determined using relevant in vivo thrombosis models, including In Vivo Electrically-induced Carotid Artery Thrombosis Models and In Vivo Rabbit Arterio-venous Shunt Thrombosis Models.
In Vivo Electrically-induced Carotid Artery Thrombosis Model:
The antithrombotic effect of compounds of the present invention can be demonstrated in the electrically-induced carotid artery thrombosis (ECAT) model in rabbits. In this model, rabbits are anesthetized with a mixture of ketamine (50 mg/kg i.m.) and xylazine (10 mg/kg i.m.). A femoral vein and a femoral artery are isolated and catheterized. The carotid artery is also isolated such that its blood flow can be measured with a calibrated flow probe that is linked to a flowmeter. A stainless steel bipolar hook electrode is placed on the carotid artery and positioned caudally in relationship to the flow probe as a means of applying electrical stimulus. In order to protect the surrounding tissue, a piece of Parafihm is placed under the electrode.
Test compounds are considered to be effective as anticoagulants based on their ability to maintain blood flow in the carotid artery following the induction of thrombosis by an electrical stimulus. A test compound or vehicle is given as continuous intravenous infusion via the femoral vein, starting 1 hour before electrical stimulation and continuing to the end of the test. Thrombosis is induced by applying a direct electrical current of 4 mA for 3 min to the external arterial surface, using a constant current unit and a d.c. stimulator. The carotid blood flow is monitored and the time to occlusion (decrease of blood flow to zero following induction of thrombosis) in minutes is noted. The change in observed blood flow is calculated as a percentage of the blood flow prior to induction of thrombosis and provides a measure of the effect of a test compound when compared to the case where no compound is administered. This information is used to estimate the ED50 value, the dose that increases blood flow to 50% of the control (blood flow prior to induction of thrombosis) and is accomplished by nonlinear least square regression.
In Vivo Rabbit Arterio-venous Shunt Thrombosis Model:
The antithrombotic effect of compounds of the present invention can be demonstrated in a rabbit arterio-venous (AV) shunt thrombosis model. In this model, rabbits weighing 2-3 kg anesthetized with a mixture of xylazine (10 mg/kg i.m.) and ketamine (50 mg/kg i.m.) are used. A saline-filled AV shunt device is connected between the femoral arterial and the femoral venous cannulae. The AV shunt device consists of a piece of 6-cm tygon tubing that contains a piece of silk thread. Blood will flow from the femoral artery via the AV-shunt into the femoral vein. The exposure of flowing blood to a silk thread will induce the formation of a significant thrombus. After forty minutes, the shunt is disconnected and the silk thread covered with thrombus is weighed. Test agents or vehicle will be given (i.v., i.p., s.c., or orally) prior to the opening of the AV shunt. The percentage inhibition of thrombus formation is determined for each treatment group. The ID50 values (dose which produces 50% inhibition of thrombus formation) are estimated by linear regression.
The anti-inflammatory effect of these compounds can be demonstrated in an Evans Blue dye extravasation assay using C1-esterase inhibitor deficient mice. In this model, mice are dosed with a compound of the present invention, Evans Blue is injected via the tail vein, and extravasation of the blue dye is determined by spectrophotometric means from tissue extracts.
The ability of the compounds of the current invention to reduce or prevent the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, for example, as observed during on-pump cardiovascular procedures, can be tested in in vitro perfusion systems, or by on-pump surgical procedures in larger mammals, including dogs and baboons. Read-outs to assess the benefit of the compounds of the present invention include for example reduced platelet loss, reduced platelet/white blood cell complexes, reduced neutrophil elastase levels in plasma, reduced activation of complement factors, and reduced activation and/or consumption of contact activation proteins (plasma kallikrein, factor XII, factor XI, high molecular weight kininogen, C1-esterase inhibitors).
The utility of the compounds of the current invention to reduce or prevent the morbidity and/or mortality of sepsis can be assessed by injecting a mammalian host with bacteria or viruses or extracts there of and compounds of the present invention. Typical read-outs of the efficacy include changes in the LD50 and blood pressure preservation.
The compounds of the present invention may also be useful as inhibitors of additional serine proteases, notably human thrombin, human plasma kallikrein and human plasmin. Because of their inhibitory action, these compounds are indicated for use in the prevention or treatment of physiological reactions, including blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, blood pressure regulation and inflammation, and wound healing catalyzed by the aforesaid class of enzymes. Specifically, the compounds have utility as drugs for the treatment of diseases arising from elevated thrombin activity of the aforementioned serine proteases, such as myocardial infarction, and as reagents used as anticoagulants in the processing of blood to plasma for diagnostic and other commercial purposes.
The compounds of the present invention can be administered alone or in combination with one or more additional therapeutic agents. These include other anti-coagulant or coagulation inhibitory agents, anti-platelet or platelet inhibitory agents, anti-inflammatory agents, thrombin inhibitors, or thrombolytic or fibrinolytic agents.
The compounds are administered to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. By Θtherapeutically effective amount” it is meant an amount of a compound of the present invention that, when administered alone or in combination with an additional therapeutic agent to a mammal, is effective to treat (i.e. prevent, inhibit or ameliorate) the thromboembolic and/or inflammatory disease condition or treat the progression of the disease in a host.
The compounds of the invention are preferably administered alone to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. However, the compounds of the invention can also be administered in combination with an additional therapeutic agent, as define below, to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. When administered in a combination, the combination of compounds is preferably, but not necessarily, a synergistic combination. Synergy, as described for example by Chou and Talalay, Adv. Enzyme Regul. 1984, 22, 27-55, occurs when the effect (in this case, inhibition of the desired target) of the compounds when administered in combination is greater than the additive effect of the compounds when administered alone as a single agent. In general, a synergistic effect is most clearly demonstrated at suboptimal concentrations of the compounds. Synergy can be in terms of lower cytotoxicity, increased anticoagulant effect, or some other beneficial effect of the combination compared with the individual components.
By “administered in combination” or “combination therapy” it is meant that the compound of the present invention and one or more additional therapeutic agents are administered concurrently to the mammal being treated. When administered in combination each component may be administered at the same time or sequentially in any order at different points in time. Thus, each component may be administered separately but sufficiently closely in time so as to provide the desired therapeutic effect.
Compounds which can be administered in combination with the compounds of the present invention include, but are not limited to, anticoagulants, anti-thrombin agents, anti-platelet agents, fibrinolytics, hypolipidemic agents, antihypertensive agents, and anti-ischemic agents.

Preferred P2Y12 receptor antagonists include ticlopidine and clopidogrel, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof. Clopidogrel is an even more preferred agent. Ticlopidine and clopidogrel are also preferred compounds since they are known to be gentle on the gastro-intestinal tract in use. The compounds of the present invention may also be dosed in combination with aprotinin.
The term thrombin inhibitors (or anti-thrombin agents), as used herein, denotes inhibitors of the serine protease thrombin. By inhibiting thrombin, various thrombin-mediated processes, such as thrombin-mediated platelet activation (that is, for example, the aggregation of platelets, and/or the granular secretion of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and/or serotonin), endothelial cell activation, inflammatory reactions, and/or fibrin formation are disrupted. A number of thrombin inhibitors are known to one of skill in the art and these inhibitors are contemplated to be used in combination with the present compounds. Such inhibitors include, but are not limited to, boroarginine derivatives, boropeptides, heparins, hirudin and argatroban, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof.

Administration of the compounds of the present invention (i.e., a first therapeutic agent) in combination with at least one additional therapeutic agent (i.e., a second therapeutic agent), preferably affords an efficacy advantage over the compounds and agents alone, preferably while permitting the use of lower doses of each. A lower dosage minimizes the potential of side effects, thereby providing an increased margin of safety. It is preferred that at least one of the therapeutic agents is administered in a sub-therapeutic dose. It is even more preferred that all of the therapeutic agents be administered in sub-therapeutic doses. Sub-therapeutic is intended to mean an amount of a therapeutic agent that by itself does not give the desired therapeutic effect for the condition or disease being treated. Synergistic combination is intended to mean that the observed effect of the combination is greater than the sum of the individual agents administered alone.
The compounds of the present invention are also useful as standard or reference compounds, for example as a quality standard or control, in tests or assays involving the inhibition of thrombin, Factor VIIa, IXa, Xa, XIa, and/or plasma kallikrein. Such compounds may be provided in a commercial kit, for example, for use in pharmaceutical research involving thrombin, Factor VIIa, IXa, Xa, XIa, and/or plasma kallikrein. XIa. For example, a compound of the present invention could be used as a reference in an assay to compare its known activity to a compound with an unknown activity. This would ensure the experimenter that the assay was being performed properly and provide a basis for comparison, especially if the test compound was a derivative of the reference compound. When developing new assays or protocols, compounds according to the present invention could be used to test their effectiveness.
The compounds of the present invention may also be used in diagnostic assays involving thrombin, Factor VIIa, IXa, Xa, XIa, and/or plasma kallikrein. For example, the presence of thrombin, Factor VIIa, IXa, Xa XIa, and/or plasma kallikrein in an unknown sample could be determined by addition of the relevant chromogenic substrate, for example S2366 for Factor XIa, to a series of solutions containing test sample and optionally one of the compounds of the present invention. If production of pNA is observed in the solutions containing test sample, but not in the presence of a compound of the present invention, then one would conclude Factor XIa was present.
Extremely potent and selective compounds of the present invention, those having Ki values less than or equal to 0.001 μM against the target protease and greater than or equal to 0.1 μM against the other protease, may also be used in diagnostic assays involving the quantitation of thrombin, Factor VIIa, IXa, Xa, XIa, and/or plasma kallikrein in serum samples. For example, the amount of Factor XIa in serum samples could be determined by careful titration of protease activity in the presence of the relevant chromogenic substrate, S2366, with a potent and selective Factor XIa inhibitor of the present invention.
The present invention also encompasses an article of manufacture. As used herein, article of manufacture is intended to include, but not be limited to, kits and packages.

In another embodiment, the package insert states that the pharmaceutical composition can be used in combination (as defined previously) with a second therapeutic agent to treat a thromboembolic and/or inflammatory disorder. The article of manufacture can further comprise: (d) a second container, wherein components (a) and (b) are located within the second container and component (c) is located within or outside of the second container. Located within the first and second containers means that the respective container holds the item within its boundaries.
The first container is a receptacle used to hold a pharmaceutical composition. This container can be for manufacturing, storing, shipping, and/or individual/bulk selling. First container is intended to cover a bottle, jar, vial, flask, syringe, tube (e.g., for a cream preparation), or any other container used to manufacture, hold, store, or distribute a pharmaceutical product.
The second container is one used to hold the first container and, optionally, the package insert. Examples of the second container include, but are not limited to, boxes (e.g., cardboard or plastic), crates, cartons, bags (e.g., paper or plastic bags), pouches, and sacks. The package insert can be physically attached to the outside of the first container via tape, glue, staple, or another method of attachment, or it can rest inside the second container without any physical means of attachment to the first container. Alternatively, the package insert is located on the outside of the second container. When located on the outside of the second container, it is preferable that the package insert is physically attached via tape, glue, staple, or another method of attachment. Alternatively, it can be adjacent to or touching the outside of the second container without being physically attached.
The package insert is a label, tag, marker, etc. that recites information relating to the pharmaceutical composition located within the first container. The information recited will usually be determined by the regulatory agency governing the area in which the article of manufacture is to be sold (e.g., the United States Food and Drug Administration). Preferably, the package insert specifically recites the indications for which the pharmaceutical composition has been approved. The package insert may be made of any material on which a person can read information contained therein or thereon. Preferably, the package insert is a printable material (e.g., paper, plastic, cardboard, foil, adhesive-backed paper or plastic, etc.) on which the desired information has been formed (e.g., printed or applied).
Dosage and Formulation 
The compounds of this invention can be administered in such oral dosage forms as tablets, capsules (each of which includes sustained release or timed release formulations), pills, powders, granules, elixirs, tinctures, suspensions, syrups, and emulsions. They may also be administered in intravenous (bolus or infusion), intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, or intramuscular form, all using dosage forms well known to those of ordinary skill in the pharmaceutical arts. They can be administered alone, but generally will be administered with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.
The dosage regimen for the compounds of the present invention will, of course, vary depending upon known factors, such as the pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent and its mode and route of administration; the species, age, sex, health, medical condition, and weight of the recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the kind of concurrent treatment; the frequency of treatment; the route of administration, the renal and hepatic function of the patient, and the effect desired. A physician or veterinarian can determine and prescribe the effective amount of the drug required to prevent, counter, or arrest the progress of the thromboembolic disorder.
By way of general guidance, the daily oral dosage of each active ingredient, when used for the indicated effects, will range between about 0.001 to 1000 mg/kg of body weight, preferably between about 0.01 to 100 mg/kg of body weight per day, and most preferably between about 1.0 to 20 mg/kg/day. Intravenously, the most preferred doses will range from about 1 to about 10 mg/kg/minute during a constant rate infusion. Compounds of this invention may be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage may be administered in divided doses of two, three, or four times daily.
Compounds of this invention can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal routes, using transdermal skin patches. When administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen.
The compounds are typically administered in admixture with suitable pharmaceutical diluents, excipients, or carriers (collectively referred to herein as pharmaceutical carriers) suitably selected with respect to the intended form of administration, that is, oral tablets, capsules, elixirs, syrups and the like, and consistent with conventional pharmaceutical practices.
For instance, for oral administration in the form of a tablet or capsule, the active drug component can be combined with an oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable, inert carrier such as lactose, starch, sucrose, glucose, methyl cellulose, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, mannitol, sorbitol and the like; for oral administration in liquid form, the oral drug components can be combined with any oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier such as ethanol, glycerol, water, and the like. Moreover, when desired or necessary, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegrating agents, and coloring agents can also be incorporated into the mixture. Suitable binders include starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums such as acacia, tragacanth, or sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose, polyethylene glycol, waxes, and the like. Lubricants used in these dosage forms include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, and the like. Disintegrators include, without limitation, starch, methyl cellulose, agar, bentonite, xanthan gum, and the like.
The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in the form of liposome delivery systems, such as small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles, and multilamellar vesicles. Liposomes can be formed from a variety of phospholipids, such as cholesterol, stearylamine, or phosphatidylcholines.
Compounds of the present invention may also be coupled with soluble polymers as targetable drug carriers. Such polymers can include polyvinylpyrrolidone, pyran copolymer, polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide-phenol, polyhydroxyethylaspartamidephenol, or polyethyleneoxide-polylysine substituted with palmitoyl residues. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention may be coupled to a class of biodegradable polymers useful in achieving controlled release of a drug, for example, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, copolymers of polylactic and polyglycolic acid, polyepsilon caprolactone, polyhydroxy butyric acid, polyorthoesters, polyacetals, polydihydropyrans, polycyanoacylates, and crosslinked or amphipathic block copolymers of hydrogels.
Dosage forms (pharmaceutical compositions) suitable for administration may contain from about 1 milligram to about 100 milligrams of active ingredient per dosage unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions the active ingredient will ordinarily be present in an amount of about 0.5-95% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
Gelatin capsules may contain the active ingredient and powdered carriers, such as lactose, starch, cellulose derivatives, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, and the like. Similar diluents can be used to make compressed tablets. Both tablets and capsules can be manufactured as sustained release products to provide for continuous release of medication over a period of hours. Compressed tablets can be sugar coated or film coated to mask any unpleasant taste and protect the tablet from the atmosphere, or enteric coated for selective disintegration in the gastrointestinal tract.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration can contain coloring and flavoring to increase patient acceptance.
In general, water, a suitable oil, saline, aqueous dextrose (glucose), and related sugar solutions and glycols such as propylene glycol or polyethylene glycols are suitable carriers for parenteral solutions. Solutions for parenteral administration preferably contain a water soluble salt of the active ingredient, suitable stabilizing agents, and if necessary, buffer substances. Antioxidizing agents such as sodium bisulfite, sodium sulfite, or ascorbic acid, either alone or combined, are suitable stabilizing agents. Also used are citric acid and its salts and sodium EDTA. In addition, parenteral solutions can contain preservatives, such as benzalkonium chloride, methyl-or propyl-paraben, and chlorobutanol.
Suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, a standard reference text in this field.
Where the compounds of this invention are combined with other anticoagulant agents, for example, a daily dosage may be about 0.1 to 100 milligrams of the compound of the present invention and about 1 to 7.5 milligrams of the second anticoagulant, per kilogram of patient body weight. For a tablet dosage form, the compounds of this invention generally may be present in an amount of about 5 to 10 milligrams per dosage unit, and the second anti-coagulant in an amount of about 1 to 5 milligrams per dosage unit.
Where the compounds of the present invention are administered in combination with an anti-platelet agent, by way of general guidance, typically a daily dosage may be about 0.01 to 25 milligrams of the compound of the present invention and about 50 to 150 milligrams of the anti-platelet agent, preferably about 0.1 to 1 milligrams of the compound of the present invention and about 1 to 3 milligrams of antiplatelet agents, per kilogram of patient body weight.
Where the compounds of the present invention are administered in combination with thrombolytic agent, typically a daily dosage may be about 0.1 to 1 milligrams of the compound of the present invention, per kilogram of patient body weight and, in the case of the thrombolytic agents, the usual dosage of the thrombolyic agent when administered alone may be reduced by about 70-80% when administered with a compound of the present invention.
Where two or more of the foregoing second therapeutic agents are administered with the compound of the present invention, generally the amount of each component in a typical daily dosage and typical dosage form may be reduced relative to the usual dosage of the agent when administered alone, in view of the additive or synergistic effect of the therapeutic agents when administered in combination.
Particularly when provided as a single dosage unit, the potential exists for a chemical interaction between the combined active ingredients. For this reason, when the compound of Formula I and a second therapeutic agent are combined in a single dosage unit they are formulated such that although the active ingredients are combined in a single dosage unit, the physical contact between the active ingredients is minimized (that is, reduced). For example, one active ingredient may be enteric coated. By enteric coating one of the active ingredients, it is possible not only to minimize the contact between the combined active ingredients, but also, it is possible to control the release of one of these components in the gastrointestinal tract such that one of these components is not released in the stomach but rather is released in the intestines. One of the active ingredients may also be coated with a material that affects a sustained-release throughout the gastrointestinal tract and also serves to minimize physical contact between the combined active ingredients. Furthermore, the sustained-released component can be additionally enteric coated such that the release of this component occurs only in the intestine. Still another approach would involve the formulation of a combination product in which the one component is coated with a sustained and/or enteric release polymer, and the other component is also coated with a polymer such as a low viscosity grade of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) or other appropriate materials as known in the art, in order to further separate the active components. The polymer coating serves to form an additional barrier to interaction with the other component.
These as well as other ways of minimizing contact between the components of combination products of the present invention, whether administered in a single dosage form or administered in separate forms but at the same time by the same manner, will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, once armed with the present disclosure.
