Definitions

  • Platelet activation and aggregation are involved in unstable angina and acute myocardial infarction, in reocclusion following thrombolytic therapy and angioplasty, in transient ischemic attacks and 0 in a variety of other vaso-occlusive disorders.
  • thrombolytic therapy and angioplasty in transient ischemic attacks and 0 in a variety of other vaso-occlusive disorders.
  • platelets When a blood vessel is damaged either by acute intervention such as angioplasty, or more chronically by the pathophysiological processes of atherosclerosis, platelets are activated to adhere to the disrupted surface and to each other. This activation, adherence and aggregation may lead to occlusive 5 thrombus formation in the lumen of the blood vessel.
  • Antiplatelet therapy has been used in a wide variety of cardiovascular disease states and in conjunction with interventional therapy such as coronary artery or peripheral bypass grafting, cardiac valve replacement, and percutaneous transluminal coronary 0 angioplasty (PTCA).
  • interventional therapy such as coronary artery or peripheral bypass grafting, cardiac valve replacement, and percutaneous transluminal coronary 0 angioplasty (PTCA).
  • Available drugs such as aspirin and ticlopidine (TICLID®)
  • aspirin and ticlopidine have shown efficacy in syndromes involving vascular occlusion, presumably due to sustained inhibition of platelet function.
  • the inhibitory effects of aspirin and ticlopidine are dependent upon the agonist which activates the platelet.
  • aspirin is 5 effective in blocking platelet aggregation induced by agonists such as collagen that are dependent upon the cyclooxygenase pathway.
  • CAMs which serve as receptors recognizing an array of adhesive proteins in the extracellular matrix. These proteins include von Willebrand factor (vWf), fibronectin, vitronectin, thrombospondin, laminins, collagen fibrils, elastin, microfibrils of elastin, and glycosaminoglycans. Most of the matrix adhesive molecules are the ligands for integrin receptors expressed in endothelial cells. Integrins constitute an extended family (“superfamily") of membrane receptors interacting with adhesive proteins in plasma and extracellular matrix and with other membrane receptors (counter- receptors).
  • Integrin implies that they integrate the ligands on the outside of the cell with the cytoskeletal apparatus in the inside of the cell. Integrin receptors consist of a noncovalently linked Ca ⁇ +- dependent, heterodimeric glycoprotein complex composed of ⁇ and ⁇ subunits. The eight known integrin ⁇ subunits give rise to eight families in which one "founder" ⁇ subunit forms heterodimers with different ⁇ subunits. There are at least 14 known ⁇ subunits. Receptors belonging to the ⁇ i and ⁇ 3 families are expressed in endothelial cells.
  • the ⁇ i family also named Very Late Antigens (VLA), is represented by the fibronectin receptor ( ⁇ l, or VLA-5), the collagen receptor ( ⁇ 2 ⁇ l, or VLA-2) and the laminin receptor ( ⁇ l).
  • the ⁇ 3 family is represented by the vitronectin receptor ( ⁇ v ⁇ 3), which is structurally similar (the same ⁇ 3 subunit) to the platelet integrin receptor for fibrinogen, glycoprotein (GP) Hb/IIIa complex (also referred to as ⁇ b ⁇ 3).
  • the functional difference between these two receptors is that the platelet receptor recognizes the g chain domain (HHLGGAKQAGDV) of human fibrinogen and the endothelial vitronectin receptor does not.
  • the final obligatory step in platelet aggregation is the binding of fibrinogen to an activated membrane-bound glycoprotein complex, GP Ilb/IIIa.
  • Platelet activators such as thrombin, collagen, epinephrine or ADP, are generated as an outgrowth of tissue damage.
  • GP Ilb/IIIa undergoes changes in conformation that results in exposure of occult binding sites for fibrinogen.
  • fibrinogen can potentially act as a hexavalent ligand to crossing GP Ilb/IIIa molecules on adjacent platelets.
  • a deficiency in either fibrinogen or GP Ilb/IIIa prevents normal platelet aggregation regardless of the agonist used to activate the platelets. Since the binding of fibrinogen to its platelet receptor is an obligatory component of normal aggregation, GP Ilb/IIIa is an attractive target for an antithrombotic agent.
  • the monoclonal antibody 7E3 which blocks the GP Ilb/IIIa receptor, has been shown to be an effective therapy for the high risk angioplasty population. It is used as an adjunct to percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty or atherectomy for the prevention of acute cardiac ischemic complications in patients at high risk for abrupt closure of the treated coronary vessel. Although 7E3 blocks both the Ilb/IIIa receptor and the ⁇ y ⁇ 3 receptor, its ability to inhibit platelet aggregation has been attributed to its function as a Ilb/IIIa receptor binding inhibitor.
  • Integrelin also known as INTEGRILINTM is a cyclic peptide that is based on the KGD sequence in the snake venom protein barbourin (Cook et al., ibid.; and Cox et al., ibid.). It inhibits ligand binding to GP Ilb/IIIa but has very little effect on ligand binding to ⁇ v ⁇ 3-
  • non-peptide compounds are Ro 44-9883 and MK-383, which are administered intravenously, and are also selective for GPIIb/IIIa (Cook et al., ibid.; and Cox et al., ibid.).
  • Orally active agents include SC54684, which is a prodrug (i.e., it requires biotransformation in vivo to its active form) with high oral bioavailability and Ro 43-8857, GR144053, and DMP728, which are themselves the active inhibitors (Cook et al., ibid.; and Cox et al., ibid.).
  • SC54684 which is a prodrug (i.e., it requires biotransformation in vivo to its active form) with high oral bioavailability
  • Inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 are a sub-class of the class of drugs known as non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • NSAIDs non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs
  • the NSAIDs are active in reducing the prostaglandin-induced pain and swelling associated with the inflammation process but are also active in affecting other prostaglandin-regulated processes not associated with the inflammation process.
  • use of high doses of most common NSAIDs can produce severe side effects, including life threatening ulcers, that limit their therapeutic potential.
  • An alternative to NSAIDs is the use of corticosteroids, which have even more drastic side effects, especially when long term therapy is involved.
  • Previous NSAIDs have been found to prevent the production of prostaglandin by inhibiting enzymes in the human arachidonic acid/prostaglandin pathway including the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX).
  • COX cyclooxygenase
