Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to tricyclic heteroaryl substituted compounds useful as inhibitors of platelet aggregation.
  • tricyclic heteroaryl substituted compounds Provided herein are tricyclic heteroaryl substituted compounds, compositions comprising such compounds, and methods of their use.
  • the invention further pertains to pharmaceutical compositions containing at least one compound according to the invention that are useful in preventing or treating thromboembolic disorders.
  • Thromboembolic diseases remain the leading cause of death in developed countries despite the availability of anticoagulants such as warfarin (COUMADIN®), heparin, low molecular weight heparins (LMWH), synthetic pentasaccharides, and antiplatelet agents such as aspirin and clopidogrel (PLAVIX®).
  • anticoagulants such as warfarin (COUMADIN®), heparin, low molecular weight heparins (LMWH), synthetic pentasaccharides, and antiplatelet agents such as aspirin and clopidogrel (PLAVIX®).
  • Alpha-thrombin is the most potent known activator of platelet aggregation and degranulation. Activation of platelets is causally involved in atherothrombotic vascular occlusions.
  • Thrombin activates platelets by cleaving G-protein coupled receptors termed protease activated receptors (PARs).
  • PARs provide their own cryptic ligand present in the N-terminal extracellular domain that is unmasked by proteolytic cleavage, with subsequent intramolecular binding to the receptor to induce signaling (tethered ligand mechanism; Coughlin, S.R., Nature, 407:258-264 (2000)).
  • Synthetic peptides that mimic the sequence of the newly formed N-terminus upon proteolytic activation can induce signaling independent of receptor cleavage.
  • Platelets are a key player in atherothrombotic events. Human platelets express at least two thrombin receptors, commonly referred to as PARI and PAR4. Inhibitors of PARI have been investigated extensively, and several compounds, including vorapaxar and atopaxar have advanced into late stage clinical trials. Recently, in the TRACER phase III trial in ACS patients, vorapaxar did not significantly reduce cardiovascular events, but significantly increased the risk of major bleeding (Tricoci, P. et al, N. Eng. J. Med. , 366(l):20-33 (2012). Thus, there remains a need to discover new antiplatelet agents with increased efficacy and reduced bleeding side effects.
  • Compound 58 is also referred to as YD-3 in Wu, C-C. et al, "Selective Inhibition of Protease-activated Receptor 4-dependent Platelet Activation by YD-3", Thromb. Haemost , 87: 1026-1033 (2002). Also, see Chen, H.S. et al, “ Synthesis and antiplatelet activity of ethyl 4-(l-benzyl-lH-indazol-3-yl)benzoate (YD-3) derivatives", Bioorg. Med. Chem. , 16: 1262-1278 (2008).
  • EP 1166785 Al and EP0667345 disclose various pyrazole derivatives which are useful as inhibitors of platelet aggregation.
  • WO2013/163241 disclose various PAR4 antagonists which are useful as inhibitors of platelet aggregation.
  • tricyclic heteroaryl substituted compounds in accordance with the present invention are PAR4 antagonists which inhibit platelet aggregation in gamma-thrombin induced platelet aggregation assays.
  • the present invention provides tricyclic heteroaryl substituted compounds which are PAR4 antagonists and are useful as selective inhibitors of platelet aggregation, including stereoisomers, tautomers, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs thereof.

  • Alpha-thrombin Induced Platelet Aggregation Assays The ability of PAR4 antagonists to inhibit platelet aggregation induced by alpha-thrombin can be tested using human washed platelets. The antagonists are pre-incubated with washed platelets for 20 min. Aggregation is initiated by addition of 1.5 nM alpha-thrombin (Haematologic Technologies, Essex Junction, VT) to 300 ⁇ of washed platelets at stirring speed of 1000 rpm. Platelet aggregation is monitored using an Optical Aggregometer (Chrono-Log, Havertown, PA) and the area under the curve (AUC) at 6 min was measured.
