Blood coagulation is the first line of defense against blood loss following injury. The blood coagulation “cascade” involves a number of circulating serine protease zymogens, regulatory cofactors and inhibitors. Each enzyme, once generated from its zymogen, specifically cleaves the next zymogen in the cascade to produce an active protease. This process is repeated until finally thrombin cleaves the fibrinopeptides from fibrinogen to produce fibrin that polymerizes to form a blood clot. Although efficient clotting limits the loss of blood at a site of trauma, it also poses the risk of systemic coagulation resulting in massive thrombosis. Under normal circumstances, hemostasis maintains a balance between clot formation (coagulation) and clot dissolution (fibrinolysis). However, in certain disease states such as acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina, the rupture of an established atherosclerotic plaque results in abnormal thrombus formation in the coronary arterial vasculature.
Diseases that stem from blood coagulation, such as myocardial infarction, unstable angina, atrial fibrillation, stroke, pulmonary embolism, and deep vein thrombosis, are among the leading causes of death in developed countries. Current anticoagulant therapies, such as injectable unfractionated and low molecular weight (LMW) heparin and orally administered warfarin (coumadin), carry the risk of bleeding episodes and display patient-to-patient variability that results in the need for close monitoring and titration of therapeutic doses. Consequently, there is a large medical need for novel anticoagulation drugs that lack some or all of the side effects of currently available drugs.
Factor XIa is an attractive therapeutic target involved in the pathway associated with these diseases. Increased levels of Factor XIa or Factor XIa activity have been observed in several thromboembolic disorders, including venous thrombosis (Meijers et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 342:696, 2000), acute myocardial infarction (Minnema et al., Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol 20:2489, 2000), acute coronary syndrome (Butenas et al., Thromb Haemost 99:142, 2008), coronary artery disease (Butenas et al., Thromb Haemost 99:142, 2008), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Jankowski et al., Thromb Res 127:242, 2011), aortic stenosis (Blood Coagul Fibrinolysis, 22:473, 2011), acute cerebrovascular ischemia (Undas et al., Eur J Clin Invest, 42:123, 2012), and systolic heart failure due to ischemic cardiomyopathy (Zabcyk et al., Pol Arch Med Wewn. 120:334, 2010). Patients that lack Factor XI because of a genetic Factor XI deficiency exhibit few, if any, ischemic strokes (Salomon et al., Blood, 111:4113, 2008). At the same time, loss of Factor XIa activity, which leaves one of the pathways that initiate coagulation intact, does not disrupt hemostasis. In humans, Factor XI deficiency can result in a mild-to-moderate bleeding disorder, especially in tissues with high levels of local fibrinolytic activity, such as the urinary tract, nose, oral cavity, and tonsils. Moreover, hemostasis is nearly normal in Factor XI-deficient mice (Gailani, Blood Coagul Fibrinolysis, 8:134, 1997). Furthermore, inhibition of Factor XI has also been found to attenuate arterial hypertension and other diseases and dysfunctions, including vascular inflammation (Kossmann et al. Sci. Transl. Med. 9, eaah4923 (2017)).
Consequently, compounds that inhibit Factor XIa have the potential to prevent or treat a wide range of disorders while avoiding the side effects and therapeutic challenges that plague drugs that inhibit other components of the coagulation pathway. Moreover, due to the limited efficacy and adverse side effects of some current therapeutics for the inhibition of undesirable thrombosis (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, hepatic vein thrombosis, and stroke), improved compounds and methods (e.g., those associated with Factor XIa) are needed for preventing or treating undesirable thrombosis.
Another therapeutic target is the enzyme kallikrein. Human plasma kallikrein is a serine protease that may be responsible for activating several downstream factors (e.g., bradykinin and plasmin) that are critical for coagulation and control of e.g., blood pressure, inflammation, and pain. Kallikreins are expressed e.g., in the prostate, epidermis, and the central nervous system (CNS) and may participate in e.g., the regulation of semen liquefaction, cleavage of cellular adhesion proteins, and neuronal plasticity in the CNS. Moreover, kallikreins may be involved in tumorigenesis and the development of cancer and angioedema, e.g., hereditary angioedema. Overactivation of the kallikrein-kinin pathway can result in a number of disorders, including angioedema, e.g., hereditary angioedema (Schneider et al., J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 120:2, 416, 2007). To date, there are limited treatment options for HAE (e.g., WO2003/076458). As such, therapeutics are needed for preventing or treating these diseases.
The present invention features compounds that inhibit Factor XIa or kallikrein and methods for preventing or treating undesired thrombosis or angiodema (e.g., hereditary angiodema) by administering one or more of these compounds alone or in combination with other molecules to a mammal. The invention also provides methods for designing or selecting additional Factor XIa or kallikrein inhibitors using these structures. Desirably, these compounds have certain structural, physical, and spatial characteristics that enable the compounds to interact with specific residues of the active site of Factor XIa or kallikrein.

In particular, a basic moiety may thus be employed to resolve the compounds of the present invention into their optical antipodes, e.g., by fractional crystallization of a salt formed with an optically active acid, e.g., tartaric acid, dibenzoyl tartaric acid, diacetyl tartaric acid, (+)-O,O′-Di-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid or camphor-10-sulfonic acid.
Racemic products can also be resolved by chiral chromatography, e.g., high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral adsorbent.
The compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) may also be represented in multiple tautomeric forms, for example, a compound of formulas (I-1), (I), (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), (I-h), (I-i), or (I-j). In such instances, the invention expressly includes all tautomeric forms of the compounds described herein. All crystal forms of the compounds described herein are expressly included in this invention.
A compound described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) can be evaluated for its ability to modulate (e.g., inhibit) Factor XIa or kallikrein.
The compounds described herein can be synthesized by conventional methods using commercially available starting materials and reagents. For example, compounds can be synthesized utilizing the methods set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 7,501,404, or as described in the methods described herein.
The compounds described herein (e.g., compounds of formula (I-1)) can inhibit Factor XIa or kallikrein. In some embodiments, a compound described herein can inhibit both Factor XIa and kallikrein. As a result, these compounds can be useful in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of a disorder described herein. Exemplary disorders include thrombotic events associated with coronary artery and cerebrovascular disease, venous or arterial thrombosis, coagulation syndromes, ischemia (e.g., coronary ischemia) and angina (stable and unstable), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), hepatic vein thrombosis, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction (e.g., ST-elevation myocardial infarction or non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (e.g., non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction before catheterization), cerebral infarction, cerebral thrombosis, transient ischemic attacks, atrial fibrillation (e.g., non-valvular atrial fibrillation), cerebral embolism, thromboembolic complications of surgery (e.g., hip or knee replacement, orthopedic surgery, cardiac surgery, lung surgery, abdominal surgery, or endarterectomy) and peripheral arterial occlusion and may also be useful in treating or preventing myocardial infarction, stroke, angina and other consequences of atherosclerotic plaque rupture. The compounds of the invention possessing Factor XIa or kallikrein inhibition activity may also be useful in preventing thromboembolic disorders, e.g., venous thromboembolisms, in cancer patients, including those receiving chemotherapy and/or those with elevated lactase dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, and to prevent thromboembolic events at or following tissue plasminogen activator-based or mechanical restoration of blood vessel patency. The compounds of the invention possessing Factor XIa or kallikrein inhibition activity may also be useful as inhibitors of blood coagulation such as during the preparation, storage and fractionation of whole blood. Additionally, the compounds described herein may be used in acute hospital settings or periprocedurally, where a patient is at risk of a thromboembolic disorder or complication, and also in patients who are in a heightened coagulation state, e.g., cancer patients.
Factor XIa inhibition, according to the present invention, can be a more effective and safer method of inhibiting thrombosis compared to inhibiting other coagulation serine proteases such as thrombin or Factor Xa. Administration of a small molecule Factor XIa inhibitor should have the effect of inhibiting thrombin generation and clot formation with no or substantially no effect on bleeding times and little or no impairment of haemostasis. These results differ substantially from that of other “direct acting” coagulation protease inhibitors (e.g., active-site inhibitors of thrombin and Factor Xa), which demonstrate prolongation of bleeding time and less separation between antithrombotic efficacy and bleeding time prolongation. A preferred method according to the invention comprises administering to a mammal a pharmaceutical composition containing at least one compound of the invention.
The compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) can inhibit kallikrein, for example, a compound of formulas (I-1), (I), (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), (I-h), (I-i), or (I-j). As a result, these compounds can be useful in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of of diseases involved in inflammation, such as edema (e.g., cerebral edema, macular edema, and angioedema (e.g., hereditary angioedema)). In some embodiments, the compounds of the invention can be useful in the treatment or prevention of hereditary angioedema. The compounds described herein (e.g., compounds of formula (I-1)) can also be useful in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of, e.g., stroke, ischemia (e.g., coronary ischemia), and perioperative blood loss for example, a compound of formula (I-1), e.g., a compound of formulas (I), (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), (I-h), (I-i), or (I-j). The methods of the present invention are useful for treating or preventing those conditions which involve the action of Factor XIa or kallikrein. Accordingly, the methods of the present invention are useful in treating consequences of atherosclerotic plaque rupture including cardiovascular diseases associated with the activation of the coagulation cascade in thrombotic or thrombophilic states.
More particularly, the methods of the present invention can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of acute coronary syndromes such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, unstable angina (including crescendo angina), ischemia (e.g., ischemia resulting from vascular occlusion), and cerebral infarction. The methods of the present invention further may be useful in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of stroke and related cerebral vascular diseases (including cerebrovascular accident, vascular dementia, and transient ischemic attack); venous thrombosis and thrombo-embolism, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism; thrombosis associated with atrial fibrillation, ventricular enlargement, dilated cardiac myopathy, or heart failure; peripheral arterial disease and intermittent claudication; the formation of atherosclerotic plaques and transplant atherosclerosis; restenosis following arterial injury induced endogenously (by rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque), or exogenously (by invasive cardiological procedures such as vessel wall injury resulting from angioplasty or post-cranial artery stenting); disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, cerebral thrombosis, and cerebral embolism.
Additionally, the methods of the present invention can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis (e.g., preventing), or reduction in the risk of thromboembolic consequences or complications associated with cancer, surgery (e.g., hip replacement, orthopedic surgery), endarterectomy, introduction of artificial heart valves, peripheral vascular interventions (e.g., of the limbs), cerebrovascular interventions, large bore interventions used in the treatment of aneurysms, vascular grafts, mechanical organs, and implantation (e.g., trans-catheter aeortic valve implantation) or transplantation of organs, (e.g., transplantation of the liver), tissue, or cells); percutaneous coronary interventions; catheter ablation; hemophilia therapy; hemodialysis; medications (such as tissue plasminogen activator or similar agents and surgical restoration of blood vessel patency) in patients suffering myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolism and like conditions; medications (such as oral contraceptives, hormone replacement, and heparin, e.g., for treating heparin-induced thrombocytopenia); sepsis (such as sepsis related to disseminated intravascular coagulation); pregnancy or childbirth; and another chronic medical condition. The methods of the present invention may be used to treat thrombosis due to confinement (e.g., immobilization, hospitalization, bed rest, or limb immobilization, e.g., with immobilizing casts, etc.).
Additionally, the compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be useful in the treatment, prophylaxis and reduction in the risk of a thromboembolic disorder, e.g., a venous thromboembolism, deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, or associated complication in a subject, wherein the subject is exposed to an artificial surface. The artificial surface can contact the subject's blood, for example, as an extracorporeal surface or that of an implantable device. Such artificial surfaces include, but are not limited to, those of dialysis catheters, cardiopulmonary bypass circuits, artificial heart valves, e.g., mechanical heart valves (MHVs), ventricular assist devices, small caliber grafts, central venous catheters, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) apparatuses. Further, the thromboembolic disorder or associated complication may be caused by the artificial surface or associated with the artificial surface. For example, foreign surfaces and various components of mechanical heart valves (MHVs) are pro-thrombotic and promote thrombin generation via the intrinsic pathway of coagulation. Further, thrombin and FXa inhibitors are contraindicated with thromboembolic disorders or associated complications caused by artificial surfaces such as those MHVs, as these inhibitors are ineffective at blocking the intrinsic pathway at plasma levels that will not cause heavy bleeding. The compounds of the present invention, which can be used as, for example, Factor XIa inhibitors, are thus contemplated as alternative therapeutics for these purposes.
The compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can also be useful for the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of atrial fibrillation in a subject in need thereof. For example, the subject can have a high risk of developing atrial fibrillation. The subject can also in need of dialysis, such as renal dialysis. The compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be administered before, during, or after dialysis. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) currently available on the market, such as certain FXa or thrombin inhibitors, are contraindicated for atrial fibrillation under such a condition. The compounds of the present invention, which can be used as, for example, Factor XIa inhibitors, are thus contemplated as alternative therapeutics for these purposes. Additionally, the subject can be at a high risk of bleeding. In some embodiments, the subject can have end-stage renal disease. In other cases, the subject is not in need of dialysis, such as renal dialysis. Further, the atrial fibrillation can be associated with another thromboembolic disorder such as a blood clot.
Furthermore, the compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of hypertension, e.g., arterial hypertension, in a subject. In some embodiments, the hypertension, e.g., arterial hypertension, can result in atherosclerosis. In some embodiments, the hypertension can be pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Furthermore, the compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of disorders such as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia thrombosis, or thrombotic microangiopathy, e.g., hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP).
The the compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be used to reduce inflammation in a subject. In some embodiments, the inflammation can be vascular inflammation. In some embodiments, the vascular inflammation can be accompanied by atherosclerosis. In some embodiments, the vascular inflammation can be accompanied by a thromboembolic disease in the subject. In some embodiments, the vascular inflammation can be angiotensin II-induced vascular inflammation.
The the compounds described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1)) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof or compositions thereof can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of renal disorders or dysfunctions, including end-stage renal disease, hypertension-associated renal dysfunction in a subject, kidney fibrosis, and kidney injury.
The methods of the present invention may also be used to maintain blood vessel patency, for example, in patients undergoing transluminal coronary angioplasty, or in connection with vascular surgery such as bypass grafting, arterial reconstruction, atherectomy, vascular grafts, stent patency, and organ, tissue or cell implantation and transplantation. The inventive methods may be used to inhibit blood coagulation in connection with the preparation, storage, fractionation, or use of whole blood. For example, the inventive methods may be used in maintaining whole and fractionated blood in the fluid phase such as required for analytical and biological testing, e.g., for ex vivo platelet and other cell function studies, bioanalytical procedures, and quantitation of blood-containing components, or for maintaining extracorpeal blood circuits, as in a renal replacement solution (e.g., hemodialysis) or surgery (e.g., open-heart surgery, e.g., coronary artery bypass surgery). In some embodiments, the renal replacement solution can be used to treat patients with acute kidney injury. In some embodiments, the renal replacement solution can be continuous renal replacement therapy.
In addition, the methods of the present invention may be useful in treating and preventing the prothrombotic complications of cancer. The methods may be useful in treating tumor growth, as an adjunct to chemotherapy, for preventing angiogenesis, and for treating cancer, more particularly, cancer of the lung, prostate, colon, breast, ovaries, and bone.
The compounds of the present invention can be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, or reduction in the risk of a thromboembolic disorder in a subject in need thereof, wherein the subject is exposed to an artificial surface such as that of an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) apparatus (vide supra), which can be used as a rescue therapy in response to cardiac or pulmonary failure. The surface of an ECMO apparatus that directly contacts the subject can be a pro-thrombotic surface that can result in a thromboembolic disorder such as a venous thromboembolism, e.g., deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, leading to difficulties in treating a patient in need of ECMO. Clots in the circuit are the most common mechanical complication (19%). Major clots can cause oxygenator failure, and pulmonary or systemic emboli.
ECMO is often administered with a continuous infusion of heparin as an anticoagulant to counter clot formation. However, cannula placement can cause damage to the internal jugular vein, which causes massive internal bleeding. Bleeding occurs in 30-40% of patients receiving ECMO and can be life-threatening. This severe bleeding is due to both the necessary continuous heparin infusion and platelet dysfunction. Approximately 50% of reported deaths are due to severe bleeding complications. Aubron et al. Critical Care, 2013, 17:R73 looked at the factors associated with ECMO outcomes.
The compounds of the present invention, which can be used as, for example, Factor XIa inhibitors, are thus contemplated as an alternative replacement for heparin in ECMO therapy. The compounds of the present invention are contemplated as effective agents for blocking the intrinsic pathway at plasma levels that will not cause heavy bleeding.
“Ischemia” or an “ischemic event” is a vascular disease generally involving vascular occlusion or a restriction in blood supply to tissues. Ischemia can cause a shortage of oxygen and glucose needed for cellular metabolism. Ischemia is generally caused by problematic blood vessels that result in damage or dysfunction of tissue. Ischemia can also refer to a local loss in blood or oxygen in a given part of the body resulting from congestion (e.g., vasoconstriction, thrombosis, or embolism). Causes include embolism, thrombosis of an atherosclerosis artery, trauma, venous problems, aneurysm, heart conditions (e.g., myocardial infarction, mitral valve disease, chronic arterial fibrillation, cardiomyopathies, and prosthesis), trauma or traumatic injury (e.g., to an extremity producing partial or total vessel occlusion), thoracic outlet syndrome, atherosclerosis, hypoglycemia, tachycardia, hypotension, outside compression of a blood vessel (e.g., by a tumor), sickle cell disease, localized extreme cold (e.g., by frostbite), tourniquet application, glutamate receptor stimulation, arteriovenous malformations, rupture of significant blood vessels supplying a tissue or organ, and anemia.
A transient ischemic event generally refers to a transient (e.g., short-lived) episode of neurologic dysfunction caused by loss of blood flow (e.g., in the focal brain, spinal cord, or retinal) without acute infarction (e.g., tissue death). In some embodiments, the transient ischemic event lasts for less than 72 hours, 48 hours, 24 hours, 12 hours, 10 hours, 8 hours, 4 hours, 2 hours, 1 hour, 45 minutes, 30 minutes, 20 minutes, 15 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes, 4 minutes, 3 minutes, 2 minutes, or 1 minute.
Angioedema is the rapid swelling of the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, mucosa, and submucosal tissues. Angioedema is typically classified as either hereditary or acquired.
“Acquired angioedema” can be immunologic, non-immunologic, or idiopathic; caused by e.g., allergy, as a side effect of medications, e.g., ACE inhibitor medications.
“Hereditary angioedema” or “HAE” refers to a genetic disorder that results in acute periods of edema (e.g., swelling) that may occur in nearly all parts of the body, including the face, limbs, neck, throat, larynx, extremities, gastrointestinal tract, and genitalia. Attacks of HAE can often be life-threatening, with severity depending on the area affected, e.g., abdominal attacks may result in intestinal obstruction, while swelling of the larynx and upper airway can lead to asphyxiation. Pathogenesis of hereditary angioedema may be related to unopposed activation of the contact pathway by the initial generation of kallikrein or clotting factors (e.g., Factor XII).
Signs and symptoms include swelling, e.g., of the skill of the face, mucosa of the mouth or throat, and tongue. Itchiness, pain, decreased sensation in the affected areas, urticaria (i.e., hives), or stridor of the airway may also be a sign of angioedema. However, there can be no associated itch, or urticaria, e.g., in hereditary angioedema. HAE subjects can experience abdominal pain (e.g., abdominal pain lasting one to five days, abdominal attacks increasing a subject's white blood cell count), vomiting, weakness, watery diarrhea, or rash. Bradykinin plays an important role in angioedema, particularly hereditary angioedema. Bradykinin is released by various cell types in response to numerous different stimuli and is a pain mediator. Interfering with bradykinin production or degradation can lead to angioedema. In hereditary angioedema, continuous production of enzyme kallikrein can facilitate bradykinin formation. Inhibition of kallikrein can interfere with bradykinin production; and treat or prevent angioedema.
The compositions described herein include the compound described herein (e.g., a compound of formula (I-1), e.g., a compound of formulas (I), (I-a), (I-b), (I-c), (I-d), (I-e), (I-f), (I-g), (I-h), (I-i), or (I-j). as well as additional therapeutic agents, if present, in amounts effective for achieving the treatment of a disease or disease symptoms (e.g., such as a disease associated with Factor XIa or kallikrein).

The effective amount of a small molecule Factor XIa or kallikrein inhibitor administered according to the present invention may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art. The specific dose level and frequency of dosage for any particular subject may vary and will depend upon a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound employed, the metabolic stability and length of action of that compound, the species, age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the subject, the mode and time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, and severity of the particular condition.
Upon improvement of a patient's condition, a maintenance dose of a compound, composition or combination provided herewith may be administered, if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or frequency of administration, or both, may be reduced, as a function of the symptoms, to a level at which the improved condition is retained when the symptoms have been alleviated to the desired level. Patients may, however, require intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrence of disease symptoms.

The following procedure was used to determine the stability of test compounds in beagle dog hepatocytes in a 96-well plate format. The test compounds, including the controls, imipramine and 7-ethoxycoumarin, were dissolved at 10 mM in DMSO, followed by further 5-fold dilution with DMSO to 2 mM. Pooled cryopreserved beagle dog hepatocytes were thawed and transferred into complete medium. Cells were gently centrifuged (700 rpm for 5 min) and the pellet rinsed with KHB (Krebs Henseleit buffer). Cells were resuspended, counted using Trypan blue, and adjusted to 1 million cells/mL in KHB buffer. The 2 mM compound stock solutions were diluted 10-fold with acetonitrile, followed by a further 50-fold dilution with KHB buffer. 200 μL of these compound solutions were transferred to 96-well polypropylene assay plates and an equal volume of the hepatocyte solution was added and mixed to initiate the reaction (final assay concentrations were 2 μM compound and 500,000 cells/mL). Assay plates were incubated at 37° C. in 5% CO2 with gentle agitation. 50 μL aliquots were removed at multiple time points out to 180 minutes and quenched with 6 volumes of cold acetonitrile (containing 250 ng/mL of carbutamide and chrysin as internal standards) to terminate the reaction and precipitate protein. Quenched samples were maintained on ice. The quenched samples were centrifuged at 2000×g (3100 rpm) for 10 minutes at 4° C. 50 μL aliquots of the supernatants were removed and diluted with 100 μL Milli-Q water to reduce the % organic content prior to bioanalysis by LC-MS/MS. Peak areas corresponding to the test compound were recorded. The compound remaining was calculated by comparing the peak area at each time point to time zero. Data were analyzed and results were calculated using Microsoft Excel 2010.
The ability of compounds of the present invention to inhibit Factor XIa was evaluated by determining the concentration of inhibitor, which resulted in a 50% reduction in enzyme activity (IC50) using purified enzyme. Potential inhibitors of Factor XIa were evaluated using the following assay.
PyroGlu-Pro-Arg-7-methylaminocourin (AMC), available from CPC Scientific, Inc., is based on the substrate pyro-Glu-Pro-Arg-pNA (S-2366), available from Diapharma Group, Inc. (Columbus, Ohio), wherein the p-nitroanaline group is replaced with 7-methylaminocoumarin (AMC).
The final concentration of the substrate in the assay was 50 μM, and the final concentration of the enzyme was 0.25 nM. Inhibitors were tested by serial dilution over an appropriate range to yield a dose response curve for determination of the inhibitors' IC50 value. The assay mixture was read every minute for 30 minutes in order to generate progress curves. The plates were read in a Spectramax m5 Multimode Plate Reader (Molecular Devices LLC, Sunnyvale, Calif.). Dose response curves were fit to Equation 1 below in which A is the maximum inhibition, B is the minimum inhibition, C is the IC50, and D is the Hill coefficient.

The following procedure was used to determine the ability of a test compound to cross Caco-2 cells (human intestinal epithelial cells derived from a colorectal adenocarcinoma). The cells were seeded at 1×105 cells/cm2 in 96-well Multiscreen™ plates (Millipore). Permeability assays were performed with the cells at days 21-25 post-seeding. Cells are typically used for 15 consecutive passages in culture.
This assay can be performed in either the apical to basolateral (A−B) or basolateral to apical (B−A) direction. The test compound was prepared at 10 μM in HBSS-MES (pH 6.5) or HBSS-HEPES (pH 7.4) with a final DMSO concentration of 1%. The working solution was then centrifuged and the supernatant added to the donor side. The assay plate was incubated at 37° C. with gentle shaking for 60 min or 40 min for the A−B or B−A assay, respectively. Samples were aliquoted from the donor side at time zero and the end point, and from the receiver side at the end point.
Reference compounds, propranolol (highly permeable), labetalol (moderately permeable), ranitidine (poorly permeable), and colchicine (P-glycoprotein substrate) were included in each assay.
Samples are analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS using selected reaction monitoring. The HPLC system consists of a binary LC pump with autosampler, a C-18 column, and a gradient.
The apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) of the test compound (Equation 2) and its recovery (Equation 3) are calculated as follows:
wherein A is the surface area of the cell monolayer (0.11 cm2), C is concentration of the test compound expressed as peak area, D denotes donor, and R is receiver. “0”, “mid,” and “end” denote time at zero, mid-point, and end of the incubation, respectively. At is the incubation time. V is the volume of the donor or receiver.
Low recovery indicates that the test compound is lost during the course of the assay. This is most likely due to non-specific binding or degradation.
The following procedure was used to determine the aqueous solubility of a test compound in phosphate buffered saline (PBS—NaCl 137 mM, KCl 2.7 mM, Na2HPO4 8.1 mM, KH2PO4 1.5 mM, pH 7.4) in 96-well plate format by HPLC-UV/VIS analysis. The test compound was prepared at 200 μM in PBS from a 10 mM DMSO stock solution. The final DMSO concentration was 2%. The PBS buffer samples were mixed thoroughly followed by incubation at room temperature for 24 h. At the end of the incubation, the PBS buffer samples were centrifuged and supernatants analyzed by HPLC. The aqueous solubility (μM) of the test compound in PBS was determined by comparing the peak area of the principal peak in the calibration standard (200 μM) with the peak area of the corresponding peak in each of the PBS samples. The range of the assay was approximately 0.5 μM to 200 μM. The reference compounds used in each assay were metoprolol, rifampicin, ketoconazole, phenytoin, haloperidol, simvastatin, diethylstilbestrol, and tamoxifen ranking from fully soluble (200 μM) to poorly soluble (<1 μM).
The following procedure was used to determine the plasma protein binding of a test compound in pooled plasma from human (mixed gender) via equilibrium dialysis in a 96-well plate format. The dialysate compartment was loaded with phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) and the sample side was loaded with plasma spiked with the test compound at a concentration of 10 μM. After loading, samples were covered and incubated for 4 hours at 37° C. After incubation, each compartment was sampled, diluted with acetonitrile/buffer and centrifuged. The supernatants were analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS. The analyte peak areas obtained from HPLC-MS/MS analysis of each sample were used to calculate protein binding according to the following equation (Equation 4):
where: AREAp=Peak area of analyte in protein matrix; AREAb=Peak area of analyte in buffer.
The amount measured in the plasma compartment included both free and bound drug, while that on the buffer side represented free drug only; the differences were used to calculate the percentage plasma protein bound. Three reference compounds were tested in each assay: acebutolol, quinidine and warfarin.
The following protocol was used to estimate the bioavailability of test compounds in a dog. Test compounds were formulated in vehicles compatible with intravenous and oral dosing. Test compounds were administered to male beagle dogs via an intravenous bolus at 1 mg/kg (1 mg/mL at a dose volume of 1 mL/kg) or via oral gavage at 5 mg/kg (1 mg/mL at a dose volume of 5 mL/kg). Blood samples were collected via the contralateral (to intravenous bolus) jugular vein or via other accessible vein, at various timepoints following administration out to 24 hours post dose. Plasma samples (EDTA) were obtained by centrifugation (2200×g for 10 minutes at 5° C.) and stored frozen (70° C.) until analyzed for parent compound via LC/MS/MS. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from the plasma concentration time data by standard non-compartmental methods utilizing standard analysis software. By comparing the area under the curve (AUC) for IV and PO administration estimates of oral bioavailability were determined.
