Description: PLATELETADP RECEPTOR INHIBITORS Field of the Invention The invention relates to novel compounds of formula (I), formula (II), formula (III), formula (IV), formula (V) and formula (VI) (hereinafter referred to as "formulae (I)-(VI)"), which more particularly include sulfonylurea derivatives, sulfonylthiourea derivatives, sulfonylguanidine derivatives, sulfonylcyanoguanidine derivatives, fhioacylsulfonamide derivatives, and acylsulfonamide derivatives which are effective platelet ADP receptor inhibitors. These derivatives may be used in various pharmaceutical compositions, and are particularly effective for the prevention and/or treatment of cardiovascular diseases, particularly those diseases related to thrombosis. Description of the Related Art Thrombotic complications are a major cause of death in the industrialized world. Examples of these complications include acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, chronic stable angina, transient ischemic attacks, strokes, peripheral vascular disease, preeclampsia/eclampsia, deep venous thrombosis, embolism, disseminated intravascular coagulation and thrombotic cytopenic purpura. Thrombotic and restenotic complications also occur following invasive procedures, e.g., angioplasty, carotid endarterectomy, post CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) surgery, vascular graft surgery, stent placements and insertion of endovascular devices and protheses. It is generally thought that platelet aggregates play a critical role in these events. Blood platelets, which normally circulate freely in the vasculature, become activated and aggregate to form a thrombus with disturbed blood flow caused by ruptured atherosclerotic lesions or by invasive treatments such as angioplasty, resulting in vascular occlusion. Platelet activation can be initiated by a variety of agents, e.g., exposed subendothelial matrix molecules such as collagen, or by thrombin which is formed in the coagulation cascade. An important mediator of platelet activation and aggregation is ADP (adenosine 5'- diphosphate) which is released from blood platelets in the vasculature upon activation by various agents, such as collagen and thrombin, and from damaged blood cells, endothelium or tissues. Activation by ADP results in the recruitment of more platelets and stabilization of existing platelet aggregates Platelet ADP receptors mediating aggregation are activated by ADP and some of its deπvatives and antagonized by ATP (adenosine 5 '-triphosphate) and some of its derivatives (Mills, D C B (1996) Thromb Hemost 76 835-856) Therefore, platelet ADP receptors are members of the family of P2 receptors activated by purine and/or pyrimidine nucleotides (King, B F , Townsend-Nicholson, A & Burnstock, G (1998) Trends Pharmacol Sci 19 506-514) Recent pharmacological data using selective antagonists suggests that ADP- dependent platelet aggregation requires activation of at least two ADP receptors (Kunapuh, S P (1998), Trends Pharmacol Sci 19 391-394, Kunapuh, S P & Daniel, J L (1998) Biochem J 336 513-523, Jantzen, H M et al (1999) Thromb Hemost 81 111-117) One receptor appears to be identical to the cloned P2Y[ receptor, mediates phospho pase C activation and intracellular calcium mobilization and is required for platelet shape change The second platelet ADP receptor important for aggregation mediates inhibition of adenylyl cyclase Molecular cloning of the gene or cDNA for this receptor has not yet been reported Based on its pharmacological and signaling properties this receptor has been provisionally termed P2Y ADP (Fredholm, B B et al (1997) TIPS 18 79-82), P2T AC (Kunapuh, S P (1998), Trends Pharmacol Sci 19 391-394) or P2Ycyc (Hechler, B et al (1998) Blood 92, 152-159) Various directly or indirectly acting synthetic inhibitors of ADP-dependent platelet aggregation with antithrombotic activity have been reported The orally active antithrombotic thienopyπdines ticlopidine and clopidogrel inhibit ADP-mduced platelet aggregation, binding of radiolabeled ADP receptor agonist 2-methylthιoadenosιne 5'- diphosphate to platelets, and other ADP-dependent events indirectly, probably via formation of an unstable and irreversible acting metabolite (Quinn, M J & Fitzgerald, D J (1999) Circulation 100 1667-1667) Some purine derivatives of the endogenous antagonist ATP, e g , AR-C (formerly FPL or ARL) 67085MX and AR-C69931MX, are selective platelet ADP receptor antagonists which inhibit ADP-dependent platelet aggregation and are effective in animal thrombosis models (Humphries et al (1995), Trends Pharmacol Sci 16, 179, Ingall, A H et al (1999) J Med Chem 42, 213-230) Novel tπazolo [4,5 -d] pyrimidine compounds have been disclosed as P 2 τ - antagonists (WO 99/05144) Tricyclic compounds as platelet ADP receptor inhibitors have also been disclosed in WO 99/36425 The target of these antithrombotic compounds appears to be the platelet ADP receptor mediating inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. Despite these compounds, there exists a need for more effective platelet ADP receptor inhibitors. In particular, there is a need for platelet ADP receptor inhibitors having antithrombotic activity that are useful in the prevention and/or treatment of cardiovascular diseases, particularly those related to thrombosis Summary of the Invention The invention provides compounds of formula (I), formula (II), formula (III), formula (IV), formula (V) and formula (VI) : II in rv v VI A is selected from the group consisting of aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, alkylaryl, and alkylheteroaryl.

following in vitro assays I Inhibition of ADP -Mediated Platelet Aggregation in vitro The effect of testing the compound according to the invention on ADP -induced human platelet aggregation is preferably assessed in 96-well microtiter assay (see generally the procedures in Jantzen, H M et al (1999) Thromb Hemost 81 111-117) Human venous blood is collected from healthy, drug-free volunteers into ACD (85 mM sodium citrate, 111 mM glucose, 71 4 mM citric acid) containing PGI 2 (1 25 ml ACD contaimng 1 6 μM PGL710 ml blood, PGI was from Sigma, St Louis, MO) Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared by centπfugation at 160 x g for 20 minutes at room temperature Washed platelets are prepared by centπfuging PRP for 10 minutes at 730 g and resuspending the platelet pellet in CGS (13 mM sodium citrate, 30 mM glucose, 120 mM NaCl, 2 ml CGS/ 10 ml original blood volume) containing lU/ml apyrase (grade V, Sigma, St Louis, MO) After incubation at 37°C for 15 minutes, the platelets are collected by centnfugation at 730 g for 10 minutes and resuspended at a concentration of 3x10 platelets/ml in Hepes-Tyrode's buffer (10 mM Hepes, 138 mM NaCl, 5 5 mM glucose, 2 9 mM KC1, 12 mM NaHC0 3 , pH 7 4) containing 0 1% bovine serum albumin, 1 mM CaCl and 1 mM MgCl 2 This platelet suspension is kept >45 minutes at 37°C before use in aggregation assays Inhibition of ADP-dependent aggregation is preferably determined in 96-well flat- bottom microtiter plates using a microtiter plate shaker and plate reader similar to the procedure described by Frantantom et al , Am J Clin Pathol 94, 613 (1990) All steps are performed at room temperature The total reaction volume of 0 2 ml/well includes in Hepes-Tyrodes buffer/0 1% BSA 4 5 x 10 7 apyrase-washed platelets, 0 5 mg/ml human fibrinogen (American Diagnostica, Inc , Greenwich, CT), serial dilutions of test compounds (buffer for control wells ) in 0 6% DMSO After about 5 minutes preincubation at room temperature, ADP is added to a final concentration of 2 μM which induces submaximal aggregation Buffer is added instead of ADP to one set of control wells (ADP control) The OD of the samples is then determined at 490 nm using a microtiter plate reader (Softmax, Molecular Devices, Menlo Park, CA) resulting m the 0 minute reading The plates are then agitated for 5 min on a microtiter plate shaker and the 5 minute reading is obtained in the plate reader Aggregation is calculated from the decrease of OD at 490 nm at t=5 minutes compared to t=0 minutes and is expressed as % of the decrease in the ADP control samples after correcting for changes in the unaggregated control samples II. Inhibition of l "3 H12-MeS-ADP Binding to Platelets Having first determined that the compounds according to the invention inhibit ADP- dependent platelet aggregation with the above assay, a second assay is used to determine whether such inhibition is mediated by interaction with platelet ADP receptors. Utilizing the second assay the potency of inhibition of such compounds with respect to [ 3 H]2-MeS- ADP binding to whole platelets is determined. [ 3 H]2-MeS-ADP binding experiments are routinely performed with outdated human platelets collected by standard procedures at hospital blood banks. Apyrase-washed outdated platelets are prepared as follows (all steps at room temperature, if not indicated otherwise): Outdated platelet suspensions are diluted with 1 volume of CGS and platelets pelleted by centrifugation at 1900 x g for 45 minutes. Platelet pellets are resuspended at 3- 6xl0 9 platelets /ml in CGS containing 1 U/ml apyrase (grade V, Sigma, St. Louis, MO) and incubated for 15 minutes at 37°C. After centrifugation at 730 x g for 20 minutes, pellets are resuspended in Hepes-Tyrode's buffer containing 0.1% BSA (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) at a concentration of 6.66xl0 8 platelets/ml. Binding experiments are performed after > 45 minutes resting of the platelets. Alternatively, binding experiments are performed with fresh human platelets prepared as described in I. (Inhibition of ADP -Mediated Platelet Aggregation in vitro), except that platelets are resuspended in Hepes-Tyrode's buffer containing 0.1% BSA (Sigma , St. Louis, MO) at a concentration of 6.66x10 8 platelets/ml. Very similar results are obtained with fresh and outdated platelets. A platelet ADP receptor binding assay using the tritiated potent agonist ligand [ 3 H]2-MeS-ADP (Jantzen, H.M. et al. (1999) Thromb. Hemost. 81:111-117) has been adapted to the 96-well microtiter format. In an assay volume of 0.2 ml Hepes-Tyrode's buffer with 0.1% BSA and 0.6% DMSO, lxlO 8 apyrase-washed platelets are preincubated in 96-well flat bottom microtiter plates for 5 minutes with serial dilutions of test compounds before addition of InM [ 3 H]2-MeS-ADP ([ 3 H]2-methylthioadenosine-5'-diphosphate, ammonium salt; specific activity 48-49 Ci/mmole, obtained by custom synthesis from Amersham Life Science, Inc., Arlington Heights, IL, or NEN Life Science Products, Boston, MA). Total binding is determined in the absence of test compounds. Samples for nonspecific binding may contain 10 "5 M unlabelled 2-MeS-ADP (RBI, Natick, MA). After incubation for 15 minutes at room temperature, unbound radioligand is separated by rapid filtration and two washes with cold (4-8°C) Binding Wash Buffer (10 mM Hepes pH 7.4, 138 mM NaCl) using a 96-well cell harvester (Minidisc 96, Skatron Instruments, Sterling, VA) and 8x12 GF/C glassfiber filtermats (Printed Filtermat A, for 1450 Microbeta, Wallac Inc., Gaithersburg, MD). The platelet-bound radioactivity on the filtermats is determined in a scintillation counter (Microbeta 1450, Wallac Inc., Gaithersburg, MD). Specific binding is determined by subtraction of non-specific binding from total binding, and specific binding in the presence of test compounds is expressed as % of specific binding in the absence of test compounds dilutions. It should be understood that the foregoing discussion, embodiments and examples merely present a detailed description of certain preferred embodiments. It will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that various modifications and equivalents can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. All the patents, journal articles and other documents discussed or cited above are herein incorporated by reference.
