Definitions

  • the present invention relates to acid derivatives that are inhibitors of serine proteases such as Factor Nlla, Factor LXa, Factor Xa, Factor FXIa, tryptase, and urokinase. These acid derivatives are useful as anticoagulants in treating and preventing cardiovascular diseases, as anti-inflammatory agents, and as metastasis inhibitors in treating cancer.
  • thrombin is a proteolytic enzyme that occupies a central position in the coagulation process. Thrombin catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, is a key effector enzyme for blood clotting, and also is pivotal for other functions, such as activation of helper proteins (including Factors N and N ⁇ i and thrombomodulin), and its own activation.
  • helper proteins including Factors N and N ⁇ i and thrombomodulin
  • thrombotic diseases Disturbances in the natural balance between pro- and anti-coagulant forces may result in bleeding or thrombotic diseases.
  • the series of reactions leading to thrombin production involve a number of coagulation factors present in the blood as precursors (e.g., Factors N ⁇ - XII).
  • the coagulation factors are transformed into activated factors (e.g., Factors Vila, LXa, Xa, XIa, etc.).
  • Factor Nil forms a complex with a membrane protein called tissue factor, to which Factor NLIa tightly binds.
  • tissue factor to which Factor NLIa tightly binds.
  • Factor NLIa is present as a complex bound to tissue factor.
  • the coagulation factors and tissue factor complexes undergo an ordered chain of reactions that ultimately lead to conversion of Factor X to Factor Xa, and Factor Xa catalyzes the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin.
  • An elevated plasma level of coagulation factors is a risk factor for fatal myocardial infarction and associated with coronary artery disease and other abnormalities of the coagulation system, e.g., thrombosis, ischemic vascular disease, intravascular clotting, stroke, embolisms, and so forth.
  • antithrombotic agents have been researched and developed for use in treating cardiovascular and other diseases.
  • Presently established antithrombotic agents include heparin, coumarin, and aspirin, among others. There are, however, limitations with these agents. For example, both heparin and coumarin have a highly-variable dose-related response, and their anticoagulant effects must be closely monitored to avoid a risk of serious bleeding.

Description

ACID DERIVATIVES USEFUL AS SERINE PROTEASE INHIBITORS
Related applications
This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/246,392, filed November 7, 2000, incoφorated herein by reference.
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to acid derivatives that are inhibitors of serine proteases such as Factor Nlla, Factor LXa, Factor Xa, Factor FXIa, tryptase, and urokinase. These acid derivatives are useful as anticoagulants in treating and preventing cardiovascular diseases, as anti-inflammatory agents, and as metastasis inhibitors in treating cancer.
Background of the Invention
Under normal conditions, the coagulation system is naturally balanced in favor of anticoagulation by a number of proteins circulating in the blood. These proteins include antithrombin III, a serine-protease inhibitor, and protein C, a vitamin- K dependent protein formed in the liver. When injury or trauma occurs, thrombin is produced at precise levels through an ordered series of reactions. Thrombin is a proteolytic enzyme that occupies a central position in the coagulation process. Thrombin catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, is a key effector enzyme for blood clotting, and also is pivotal for other functions, such as activation of helper proteins (including Factors N and Nπi and thrombomodulin), and its own activation. Disturbances in the natural balance between pro- and anti-coagulant forces may result in bleeding or thrombotic diseases. The series of reactions leading to thrombin production involve a number of coagulation factors present in the blood as precursors (e.g., Factors Nπ - XII). When the coagulation system is triggered (e.g., when trauma occurs), the coagulation factors are transformed into activated factors (e.g., Factors Vila, LXa, Xa, XIa, etc.). Factor Nil forms a complex with a membrane protein called tissue factor, to which Factor NLIa tightly binds. Thus, Factor NLIa is present as a complex bound to tissue factor. When triggered, the coagulation factors and tissue factor complexes undergo an ordered chain of reactions that ultimately lead to conversion of Factor X to Factor Xa, and Factor Xa catalyzes the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin.
An elevated plasma level of coagulation factors, particularly Factor NLIa, is a risk factor for fatal myocardial infarction and associated with coronary artery disease and other abnormalities of the coagulation system, e.g., thrombosis, ischemic vascular disease, intravascular clotting, stroke, embolisms, and so forth. Accordingly, antithrombotic agents have been researched and developed for use in treating cardiovascular and other diseases. Presently established antithrombotic agents include heparin, coumarin, and aspirin, among others. There are, however, limitations with these agents. For example, both heparin and coumarin have a highly-variable dose-related response, and their anticoagulant effects must be closely monitored to avoid a risk of serious bleeding. The erratic anticoagulant response of heparin is likely due to its propensity to bind non-specifically to plasma proteins. Aspirin has a limited efficacy and at high doses presents a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Thrombin inhibitors and their drawbacks are further discussed in WO 96/20689 to duPont Merck Pharmaceutical Co.
As may be appreciated, those in the field of pharmaceutical research continue to seek to develop new compounds and compositions having increased effectiveness and bioavailability and/or having fewer side effects. See, e.g., Jakobsen et al., "Inhibitors of the Tissue Factor/Factor Vila-induced Coagulation: Synthesis and In vitro Evaluation of Novel Specific 2-aryl Substituted 4H-3,l-benzoxazin-4- ones " Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry. Vol. 8 (August 2000), at pp. 2095-2103; and J. Hirsh et al., "Thrombosis, New Antithrombotic Agents," Lancet, Vol. 353
(April 24, 1999), at pp. 1431-36. There is particularly an interest in developing agents that can selectively and directly inhibit key factors in the complicated coagulation process. Compounds effective in inhibiting Factor Xa are described in U.S. Pat. applications Serial No. 09/478,632, filed January 6, 2000, Serial No. 09/633,751, filed August 7, 2000, and Serial No. 09/496,571 , filed February 2, 2000. Compounds effective in inhibiting Factors NJJa, Xa, as well as tryptase and urokinase are described in U.S. Pat. application Serial No. 09/458,847, filed December 13, 1999. The above referenced '632, '751, '571, and '847 applications show lactam compounds and are each assigned to the present assignee with common inventors herewith. Factor Xa inhibitors are also disclosed in PCT applic. WO 98/57937 to the duPont Merck Pharmaceutical Co.
PCT patent application WO 99/41231 to Ono Pharmaceuticals Inc., ("Ono") discloses a series of amidino derivatives such as 2-(3-(4-amidinophenylcarbamoyl)- naphthalen-2-yl)-5-((2,2-methylpropyl)carbamoyl benzoic acid, which are claimed to be Factor NJJa inhibitors.

Inhibitors of Factor NLIa are also reported in WO 01/44172 to Axys Pharm. Inc.

Detailed Description of the Invention
The following are definitions of terms used in this specification. The initial definition provided for a group or term herein applies to that group or term throughout this specification, individually or as part of another group, unless otherwise indicated.
The term "alkyl" refers to straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 8 carbon atoms. Lower alkyl groups, that is, alkyl groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, are most preferred.
When numbers appear in a subscript after the symbol "C", the subscript defines with more specificity the number of carbon atoms that a particular group may contain. For example, "Cj.6alkyl" refers to straight and branched chain alkyl groups with one to six carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t- butyl, n-pentyl, and so forth.
The term "substituted alkyl" refers to an alkyl group as defined above having one, two, or three substituents selected from the group consisting of halo, alkenyl, alkynyl, nitro, cyano, hydroxy, alkoxy, alkylthio, -CO2H, -C(=O)H, -CO2-alkyl, - C(=O)alkyl, -S(O)2(alkyl), keto (=O), aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclo, and cycloalkyl, including phenyl, benzyl, phenylethyl, phenyloxy, and phenylthio. The substituents for "substituted alkyl" groups may also be selected from the group consisting of - NR'R", -C(=O)NR'R", -CO2NR'R", -NR'CO2'R", -NR'C(=O)R", -SO2NR'R", and -NR'SO2'R", wherein each of R' and R" is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, and alkyl substituted with one to two of alkenyl, halogen, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, cyano, nitro, hydroxy, alkoxy, alkylthio, amino, alkylamino, phenyl, benzyl, phenyloxy, and benzyloxy. Alternatively, R' and R" may together form a heterocyclo or heteroaryl ring. When a substituted alkyl includes an aryl, heterocyclo, cycloalkyl, or heteroaryl substituent, said ringed systems are as defined below and thus may have zero, one, two, or three substituents, also as defined below.
When the term "alkyl" is used in conjunction with another group, e.g., arylalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, etc., the term defines with more specificity a particular substituent that a substituted alkyl will contain.

The terms "alkenylene" and "alkynylene" refer to bivalent radicals of alkenyl and alknyl groups, respectively, as defined above. When reference is made to a substituted alkylene, alkenylene, or alkynylene group, these groups are substituted with one to three substitutents as defined above for alkyl groups. A ringed substituent of an alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylene, alkenylene, or alkynylene may be joined at a terminal atom or an available intermediate (branch or chain) atom and thus may comprise, for example, the groups
2 - ' H Q* - and so forth.

The term alkylamino refers to straight and branched chain groups and thus, for example, includes the groups -NH(Cj_ 12alk l) and -N(Cwalkyl)z
When a subscript is used with reference to an alkoxy, alkylthio or alkylamino, the subscript refers to the number of carbon atoms in the group in addition to heteroatoms. Thus, for example, monovalent Cj.2alkylamino includes the groups -
NH-CH3, -NH-CH2-CH3, and -N-(CH3)2. A lower alkylamino comprises an alkylamino having from one to four carbon atoms. When reference is made to a substituted alkoxy or alkylthio, the carbon atoms of said groups are substituted with one to three substituents as defined above for alkyl groups.

Additionally, the alkoxy, alkylthio, or alkylamino groups may be monovalent or bivalent. By "monovalent" it is meant that the group has a valency (i.e., power to combine with another group), of one, and by "bivalent" it is meant that the group has a valency of two. Thus, for example, a monovalent alkoxy includes groups such as - O-Cj.^alkyl and -C1_6alkylene-O-C1_6alkyl, whereas a bivalent alkoxy includes groups such as -O-C1 12alkylene- and -C^galkylene-O-C^galkylene-, etc.

Thus, the term "heteroalkyl" includes alkoxy, alkylthio, and alkylamino groups, as defined above, as well as alkyl groups having a combination of heteroatoms selected from O, S, or N. A "heteroalkyl" herein may be monovalent or bivalent, and for example, may comprise the groups -O- (CH2)2-5NH-(CH2)2- or -O-(CH2)2-5NH-CH3, etc. A "substituted heteroalkyl" has one to three substituents appropriately selected from those recited above for alkyl groups.

Whenever a bond appears in a formula as a dashed-double bond, i.e., with one
H rl2 bond appearing as a dash as in ~"CC jt should be understood that such bonds may be selected from single or double bonds, as appropriate given the selections for adjacent atoms and bonds. For example, in formula I, above, when X2 is N or CH, the bonds linking Ri to X2 and X2 to C6 are single bonds; and when X2 is C, one of the bonds linking X2 to an adjacent atom is a double bond, i.e., either a bond to Rt or to C6 is a double bond. It should be understood that one skilled in the field may make various substitutions for each of the groups recited in the claims herein, without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. For example, one skilled in the field may replace a W group recited in the claims with a cyano, halogen, or methyl group. The linker group "L" recited in the claims may be replaced with the group -(R')u-Y'- (R")v- wherein Y' is a Y group recited in claim 1, is a bond, or is selected from - C(=O)-, -[C(=O)]2-, -O-, -NR-, -C(=NR)-, -S(O)ι-2-, -NRC(=O)NR-, -NRSO2- , or - SO2NR-, wherein R is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, a heterocyclo or carbocyclic ring, and so forth, R' and R" may comprise substituted or unsubstituted alkylene, alkenylene, or alkynylene, and u and v may be 0-4. Additionally, the acid group -CO2R3 may be joined to the phenyl or pyridyl ring B with a linker such as a methylene group or replaced with other acid functional groups such as -SO3H, -P(=O)(OR)2, -SO2NHC(=O)R, -C(=O)NHSO2R, - C(=O)NHOH, -[C(=O)]2OR, or tetrazole, wherein R is hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, and so forth.
It should be further understood that for compounds of formula I, the linker group "L" is inserted into the formula I in the same direction set forth in the text. Thus, for example, if L is recited as -CH2-Y-, this means the -CH2- group is attached to Z, and the Y group is attached to the C6 carbon atom i.e., to which X is
Figure imgf000017_0001
-NR13C(=O)-, the carbonyl group C(=O) is attached to the C6 carbon atom and the nitrogen group -NR1 - is attached to Z, as in many Examples herein. Conversely, when Y is recited as -C(O)NR1 - this means the carbonyl group C(=O) is attached to Z and the nitrogen group -NR13- is attached to the C6 carbon atom.
Throughout the specification, groups and substituents thereof may be chosen by one skilled in the field to provide stable moieties and compounds.
The compounds of formula I form salts which are also within the scope of this invention. Unless otherwise indicated, reference to an inventive compound is understood to include reference to salts thereof. The term "salt(s)" denotes acidic and/or basic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic acids and bases. In addition, the term "salt(s) may include zwitterions (inner salts), e.g., when a compound of formula I contains both a basic moiety, such as an amine or a pyridine or imidazole ring, and an acidic moiety, such as a carboxylic acid. Pharmaceutically acceptable (i.e., non-toxic, physiologically acceptable) salts are preferred, such as, for example, acceptable metal and amine salts in which the cation does not contribute significantly to the toxicity or biological activity of the salt. However, other salts may be useful, e.g., in isolation or purification steps which may be employed during preparation, and thus, are contemplated within the scope of the invention. Salts of the compounds of the formula I may be formed, for example, by reacting a compound of the formula I with an amount of acid or base, such as an equivalent amount, in a medium such as one in which the salt precipitates or in an aqueous medium followed by lyophilization.
Exemplary acid addition salts include acetates (such as those formed with acetic acid or trihaloacetic acid, for example, trifluoroacetic acid), adipates, alginates, ascorbates, aspartates, benzoates, benzenesulfonates, bisulfates, borates, butyrates, citrates, camphorates, camphorsulfonates, cyclopentanepropionates, digluconates, dodecylsulfates, ethanesulfonates, fumarates, glucoheptanoates, glycerophosphates, hemisulfates, heptanoates, hexanoates, hydrochlorides (formed with hydrochloric acid), hydrobromides (formed with hydrogen bromide), hydroiodides, 2- hydroxyethanesulfonates, lactates, maleates (formed with maleic acid), methanesulfonates (formed with methanesulfonic acid), 2-naphthalenesulfonates, nicotinates, nitrates, oxalates, pectinates, persulfates, 3-phenylpropionates, phosphates, picrates, pivalates, propionates, salicylates, succinates, sulfates (such as those formed with sulfuric acid), sulfonates (such as those mentioned herein), tartrates, thiocyanates, toluenesulfonates such as tosylates, undecanoates, and the like.
Exemplary basic salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts such as sodium, lithium, and potassium salts; alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium and magnesium salts; barium, zinc, and aluminum salts; salts with organic bases (for example, organic amines) such as trialkylamines such as triethylamine, procaine, dibenzylamine, N-benzyl-β-phenethylamine, 1-ephenamine, N,N'-dibenzylethylene- diamine, dehydroabietylamine, N-ethylpiperidine, benzylamine, dicyclohexylamine or similar pharmaceutically acceptable amines and salts with amino acids such as arginine, lysine and the like. Basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quaternized with agents such as lower alkyl halides (e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e.g., dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates), long chain halides (e.g., decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), aralkyl halides (e.g., benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others. Preferred salts include monohydrochloride, hydrogensulfate, methanesulfonate, phosphate or nitrate.
Prodrags and solvates of the inventive compounds are also contemplated. The term "prodrug" denotes a compound which, upon administration to a subject, undergoes chemical conversion by metabolic or chemical processes to yield a compound of the formula I, and/or a salt and/or solvate thereof. Various forms of prodrags are well known in the art. For examples of such prodrug derivatives, see: a) Design of Prodrugs. edited by H. Bundgaard, (Elsevier, 1985) and Methods in Enzymology, Nol.42, p. 309-396, edited by K. Widder, et al. (Acamedic Press, 1985); b) A Textbook of Drug Design and Development, edited by Krosgaard- Larsen and H. Bundgaard, Chapter 5, "Design and Application of Prodrugs," by H. Bundgaard, p. 113-191 (1991); and c) H. Bundgaard, Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 8, 1-38 (1992), each of which is incoφorated herein by reference.
Compounds containing a carboxy group can form physiologically hydrolyzable esters which serve as prodrags by being hydrolyzed in the body to yield formula I compounds per se. For example, in compounds of formula (I), prodrags comprise compounds wherein the upper ring substituent -CO R3 is a group that will hydrolyze in the body to compounds where said substituent is -CO2H. Such prodrugs are preferably administered orally since hydrolysis in many instances occurs principally under the influence of the digestive enzymes. Parenteral administration may be used where the ester per se is active, or in those instances where hydrolysis occurs in the blood. Examples of physiologically hydrolyzable esters of compounds of formula I include Chalky-benzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, indanyl, phthalyl, methoxymethyl, C^galkanoyloxy-C^galkyl, e.g. acetoxymethyl, pivaloyloxymethyl or propionyloxymethyl, C^galkoxycarbonyloxy-C^galkyl, e.g. methoxycarbonyl- oxymethyl or ethoxycarbonyloxymethyl, glycyloxymethyl, phenylglycyloxymethyl, (5-methyl-2-oxo-l,3-dioxolen-4-yl)-methyl and other well known physiologically hydrolyzable esters used, for example, in the penicillin and cephalosporin arts. Such esters may be prepared by conventional techniques known in the art.
Compounds of formula I and salts thereof may exist in their tautomeric form, in which hydrogen atoms are transposed to other parts of the molecules and the chemical bonds between the atoms of the molecules are consequently rearranged. It should be understood that the all tautomeric forms, insofar as they may exist, are included within the invention. Additionally, inventive compounds may have trans and cis isomers and may contain one or more chiral centers, therefore existing in enantiomeric and diastereomeric forms. The invention includes all such isomers, as well as mixtures of cis and trans isomers, mixtures of diastereomers and racemic mixtures of enantiomers (optical isomers). When no specific mention is made of the configuration (cis, trans or R or S) of a compound (or of an asymmetric carbon), then any one of the isomers or a mixture of more than one isomer is intended. The processes for preparation can use racemates, enantiomers or diastereomers as starting" materials. When enantiomeric or diastereomeric products are prepared, they can be separated by conventional methods for example, chromatographic or fractional crystallization.
The compounds of the instant invention may, for example, be in the free or hydrate form, and may be obtained by methods exemplified by the following descriptions.

Compounds of formula la can be made by reacting acid 1 with an amine having the desired group Z, i.e., Z-NHR13. The 2-position acid group is suitably protected (P'), and the reaction is carried out in the presence of coupling reagent(s) such as DCC/HOBT/DMAP, EDC/DMAP, or DIC/HOAT to afford the corresponding amide compound. The group P' optionally may be deprotected to afford the compound of formula la wherein R3 is hydrogen, or the group P' may be retained wherein P' comprises the desired group R3. Alternatively, the group P' may be deprotected to afford the group CO2H, with the group CO2H then converted to another desired R3 group. To illustrate, the compound having the acid group CO2H may be reacted with a halide having the desired R3 group, i.e., X-R3 where X is Cl, Br, or I, in the presence of base, or the acid compound may be coupled with an alcohol such as R3OH in a coupling reagent. It may be necessary or desired to protect additional functional groups besides the 2-position acid before performing the coupling reaction, as one skilled in the field will appreciate. Those additional protecting groups can be removed after the coupling using appropriate deprotecting conditions. Preparation of acids 1 , wherein R\ and R2 together form an unsaturated carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring, is described in WO 99/041231, incoφorated herein by reference, and described in the Examples that appear hereinafter.

Enzyme Assays
Compound was prepared as a 5 mM stock in DMSO, diluted further in DMSO and added directly to the assays. The DMSO concentration for all these studies was less than 1% and compared to DMSO vehicle controls.
Human Factor NLIa was obtained from Enzyme Research Labs (Cat.# HFNJJA 1640). Human recombinant tissue factor (LΝΝONLΝ from Dade Behring Cat.# B4212-100; "20 ml vial") was diluted with 8 ml of H2O per vial and diluted further 1:30 into the 302 μl final assay volume. Tissue factor activated FNLIa enzymatic activity was measured in a buffer containing 150 mM ΝaCl, 5mM CaCl , 1 mM CHAPS and 1 mg/ml PEG 6000 (pH 7.4) with 1 nM FNLIa and 100 μM D-he-Pro- Arg-AFC (Enzyme Systems Products, Km > 200 μM) 0.66% DMSO. The assay (302 μl total volume) was incubated at RT for 2 hr prior to reading fluorome-ric signal (Ex 405 / Em 535) using a Victor 2 (Wallac) fluorescent plate reader.
Human Factor LXa (American Diagnostica # 449b) enzymatic activity was measured in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris, 100 mM CaCl2, 5 mM CaCl2, 33% ethylene glycol at pH 7.5 using 96-well microtiter plates (Nunc # 439454). The enzyme was incubated with the inhibitor at RT for three minutes prior to starting the reaction with 500 uM Spectrozyme FLXa (American Diagnostica #299). The Kmfor this substrate is estimated by American Diagnostica to be 1.3 mM. Time dependent optical density change was followed at 405 nm using a kinetic microplate read (Molecular Devices Spectramax Plus) at RT. Enzyme activity in the presence of inhibitor was expressed as fraction of a DMSO-containing control and curve fit to the equation: activity = control activity/(l+[Lj/IC5o) using Excel Fit.
Human FXa (Calbiochem #233526) enzymatic activity was measured in a buffer containing 0.145 M NaCl, 0.005 M KCl, 1 mg/ml Polyethylene Glycol (PEG- 8000), 0.030 M HEPES (pH 7.4) using 96-well microtiter plates (Nunc Immuno
#439454). The enzyme was incubated with the inhibitor at RT for three minutes prior to starting the reaction with 100 μM S-2222 (phenyl-He-Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA, Km= 137 μM). The Km for this and other substrates was determined experimentally by measuring the enzyme activity at different substrate concentrations and curve fitting the data using Kaleidagraph V. Time-dependent optical density change was followed at 405 nm using a kinetic microplate reader (Molecular Devices UNmax) at RT. Enzyme activity in the presence of inhibitor was expressed as fraction of a DMSO- containing control and curve fit to the equation: activity = control activity/(l + [LJ/IC50) using Excel Fit. Recombinant urokinase (Abbott Labs, Abbokinase) was assayed in the same buffer as FXa, but the reactions were started with 100 μM S-2444 (L-pyroGlu-Gly- Arg-pΝA, Km= 31 μM). Human α-thrombin (Sigma) was measured as for FXa except that the reaction was started with 10 μM S-2238 (D-Phe-Pip-Arg-pΝA, Km = 2.54 μM). Human FXIa assay (Enzyme Research Labs) was measured as for FXa except that the reaction was started with 100 μM S-2366 (L-pyroGlu-Pro-Arg-pNA, Km= 86 μM).
Bovine and human pancreatic trypsin (Sigma) were assayed in 2 mM CaCl2, 50 mM Tris/Cl (pH 8.0) and the reaction was started with 100 μM Chromozym-TRY (Carboxybenzoxy-Nal-Gly-Arg-pNA, Km= 46 μM).
Tryptase inhibition activity was measured using either isolated human skin tryptase or recombinant human tryptase prepared from the human recombinant beta- protryptase expressed by baculovirus in insect cells. The expressed beta-protryptase was purified using sequential immobilized heparin affinity resin followed by an immunoaffinity column using an anti-tryptase monoclonal antibody. The protryptase was activated by auto-catalytic removal of the N-terminal in the presence of dextran sulfate followed by dipeptidyl peptidase I (DPPI) removal of the two N-terminal amino acids to give the mature active enzyme (Sakai et al, J. Clin. Invest.. Vol. 97 (1996), at pp. 988-995). Essentially equivalent results were obtained using isolated native enzyme or the activated expressed enzyme. The tryptase enzyme was maintained in 2M sodium chloride, 10 nM 4-moφholine-propanesulfonic acid, pH 6.8. The assay procedure employed a 96 well microplate. To each well of the microplate (Nunc MaxiSoφ), 250 μl of assay buffer [containing low molecular weight heparin and tris (hydroxymethyl)aminomethane] was added followed by 2.0 μl of the test compound in dimethylsulf oxide. The substrate (10 μl) was then added to each well to give a final concentration of 100 μM benzyloxycarbonyl-glycine-proline- arginine-p-nitroaniline (CBz-Gly-Pro-Arg-pNA). The microplate was then shaken on a platform vortex mixer at a setting of 800 (Sarstedt TPM-2). After a total of three minutes incubation, 10 μl of the working stock solution of tryptase was added to each well. The microplate was vortexed again for one minute and then incubated without shaking at RT for an additional 2 minutes. After this time the microplate was read on a microplate reader (Molecular Devices UN max) in the kinetic mode (405 nm wavelength) over twenty minutes at RT. To determine the compound concentration that inhibited half of the enzyme activity (IC50), the fraction of control activity (FCA) was plotted as a function of the inhibitor concentration and curve to fit FCA/(l[I]/IC5o). The IC50 for each compound was determined 2-4 times and the obtained values were averaged.
Applying the above-described assays, the inventive compounds demonstrated activity as inhibitors of Factors NLIa, LXa, Xa, Xla, LXa, tryptase and/or urokinase.
