Description: PURINE DERIVATIVES AND THEIR USE AS ANTI-COAGULANTS Field of the Invention The present invention is directed to puπne derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, which inhibit the enzyme, factor Xa, thereby being useful as anti coagulants It also relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing the derivatives or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and methods of their use. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Factor Xa is a member of the trypsin-like seπne protease class of enzymes A one-to-one binding of factors Xa and Va with calcium ions and phosphohpid forms the prothrombmase complex which converts prothrombin to thrombin. Thrombin, in turn, converts fibrinogen to fibrin which polymerizes to form insoluble fibrin. In the coagulation cascade, the prothrombmase complex is the convergent point of the intrinsic (surface activated) and extrinsic (vessel tn|ury-tιssue factor) pathways {Biochemistry ( 1 991 ) , Vol. 30, p. 1 0363; and Cell ( 1 988) , Vol. 53, pp. 505-51 8) . The model of the coagulation cascade has been refined further with the discovery of the mode of action of tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) {Seminars in Hematology ( 1 992) , Vol. 29, pp. 1 59- 1 61 ) TFPI is a circulating multi-domain seπne protease inhibitor with three Kunitz-like domains which competes with factor Va for free factor Xa. Once formed, the binary complex of factor Xa and TFPI becomes a potent inhibitor of the factor Vila and tissue factor complex . Factor Xa can be activated by two distinct complexes, by tissue factor-Vila complex on the " Xa burst" pathway and by the factor IXa-VIIIA complex (TENase) of the "sustained Xa " pathway in the coagulation cascade. After vessel injury, the " Xa burst" pathway is activated via tissue factor (TF) . Up regulation of the coagulation cascade occurs via increased factor Xa production via the "sustained Xa" pathway. Down regulation of the coagulation cascade occurs with the formation of the factor Xa-TFPI complex, which not only removes factor Xa but also inhibits further factor formation via the "Xa burst" pathway. Therefore, the coagulation cascade is naturally regulated by factor Xa. The primary advantage of inhibiting factor Xa over thrombin in order to prevent coagulation is the focal role of factor Xa versus the multiple functions of thrombin. Thrombin not only catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, factor VIII to VIIIA, factor V to Va, and factor XI to Xla, but also activates platelets, is a monocyte chemotactic factor, and mitogen for lymphocytes and smooth muscle cells. Thrombin activates protein C, the in vivo anti coagulant inactivator of factors Va and Vi lla, when bound to thrombomodulin . In circulation, thrombin is rapidly inactivated by antithrombin III (ATIII) and hepaππ cofactor II (HCII) in a reaction which is catalyzed by hepaπn or other proteoglycan-associated glycosaminoglycans, whereas thrombin in tissues is inactivated by the protease, nexin. Thrombin carries out its multiple cellular activa.ion functions through a unique "tethered ligand" thrombin receptor {Cell (1991), Vol.64, p. 1057) , which requires the same anionic binding site and active site used in fibrinogen binding and cleavage and by thrombomodulin binding and protein C activation. Thus, a diverse group of in vivo molecular targets compete to bind thrombin and the subsequent proteolytic events will have very different physiological consequences depending upon which cell type and which receptor, modulator, substrate or inhibitor binds thrombin. Published data with the proteins antistasm and tick anti-coagulant peptide (TAP) demonstrate that factor Xa inhibitors are efficacious anti-coagulants {Thrombosis and Haemostasis (1992), Vol.67, pp.371-376; and Science (1990), Vol.248, pp. 593-596) The active site of factor Xa can be blocked by either a mechanism-based or a tight binding inhibitor (a tight binding inhibitor differs from a mechanism-based inhibitor by the lack of a covalent link between the enzyme and the inhibitor). Two types of mechanism based inhibitors are known, reversible and irreversible, which are distinguished by ease of hydrolysis of the enzyme-inhibttor link {Thrombosis Res (1992), Vol.67, pp.221-231; and Trends Pharmacol Sci (1987), Vol.8, pp.303-307). A series of guanidino compounds are examples of tight-binding inhibitors {Thrombosis Res. (1980), Vol. 19, pp.339-349). Arylsulfonyl-arginine-pipeπdine- carboxylic acid derivatives have also been shown to be tight-binding inhibitors of thrombin {Biochem. (1984), Vol.23, pp.85-90), as well as a series of arylamidine-containing compounds, including 3-amidinophenylaryl derivatives {Thrombosis Res. (1983), Vol.29, pp.635-642) and bιs(amιdino)benzyl cycloketones {Thrombosis Res. (1980), Vol. 17, pp. 545-548). However. these compounds demonstrate poor selectivity for factor Xa. Related Disclosures European Published Patent Application 0540051 (Nagahara et al.) describes aromatic amidine derivatives which are stated to be capable of showing a strong anticoagulant effect through reversible inhibition of factor Xa. The synthesis of σ,σ'-bis(amidinobenzylidene)cycloalkanones and σ,σ'-bis{amidino- benzyDcycloalkanones is described in Pharmazie (1977), Vol.32, No.3, pp. 141-145. These compounds are disclosed as being seπne protease inhibitors.

Testing The primary bioassays used to demonstrate the inhibitory effect of the compounds of the mvention on factor Xa are simple chromogenic assays involving only seπne protease, the compound of the invention to be tested, substrate and buffer (see, e g , Thrombosis Res ( 1 979) , Vol 1 6, pp 245-254) For example, four tissue human seπne proteases can be used in the primary bioassay, free factor Xa, prothrombmase, thrombin (Ma) and tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) The assay for TPA has been successfully used before to demonstrate undesired side effects in the inhibition of the fibπnolytic process (see, e.g. , J. Med Chem. ( 1 993) , Vol. 36, pp . 31 -31 9) Another bioassay useful in demonstrating the utility of the compounds of the invention in inhibiting factor Xa demonstrates the potency of the compounds against free factor Xa in citrated plasma. For example, the anticoagulant efficacy of the compounds of the invention will be tested using either the prothrombin time (PT), or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) while selectivity of the compounds is checked with the thrombin clotting time (TCT) assay. Correlation of the K, in the primary enzyme assay with the K, for free factor Xa in citrated plasma will screen against compounds which interact with or are inactivated by other plasma components . Correlation of the K, with the extension of the PT is a necessary in vitro demonstration that potency in the free factor Xa inhibition assay translates into potency in a clinical coagulation assay. In addition, extension of the PT in citrated plasma can be used to measure duration of action in subsequent pharmacodynamic studies.

Lottenberg et al. , Methods in Enzymology ( 1 981 ) , Vol. 80, pp. 341 361 , and H Ohno et a/. , Thrombosis Research ( 1 980) , Vol . 19, pp. 579-588. C.
