Tricyclic inhibitors of the GPII.sub.b III.sub.a receptor

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to tricyclic inhibitors of the platelet GPII.sub.b III.sub.a receptor. Specifically, the invention is directed to 1,4-benzodiazepines having one or more 5- or 6-member heterocycle fused to the diazepine moiety that act as antagonists of the final common pathway of platelet aggregation. These antagonists act as potent antithrombotics. The invention further relates to therapeutic applications of these tricyclic inhibitors in diseases for which blocking platelet aggregation is indicated.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A. Platelets
Platelets are particles found in whole blood that initiate and provide the structural basis for the hemostatic plug necessary to stop bleeding. Platelets depend on adhesive interactions with extracellular proteins and other cells for proper function (see Hawiger, J. Atherosclerosis Reviews 21:165-186 (1990) and Roth J. R. Immunology Today 13(2):100-105 (1992)). The external platelet plasma membrane surface is covered with a variety of membrane bound glycoproteins, many of which have recognition and adhesive functions. Perhaps the most abundant platelet membrane adhesive proteins belong to the integrin superfamily which include the glycoproteins; GPII.sub.b III.sub.a, GPI.sub.a II.sub.a, GPI.sub.c II.sub.a, GPI.sub.b IX, and the fibronectin and vitronectin receptors (Hynes, R. O., Cell, 48:549 (1987). Each integrin receptor is an .alpha..beta. heterodimer displaying characteristic affinity and specificity toward various protein ligands found in serum and/or the extracellular matrix including; von Willebrand factor (vWF), collagen, entactin, tenascin, fibronectin (Fn), vitronectin (Vn), and laminin, as well as fibrinogen (Fg) and thrombospondin (see Kieffer et al., Ann. Rev. Cell Biol. 6:329- 357(1990) and Ruoslahti, J. Clin. Invest., 87:1-5 (1991)). The most abundant integrin found on the surface of normal platelets is GPII.sub.b III.sub.a comprising about 50,000 molecules per platelet and representing about 2% of the total platelet protein. GPII.sub.b III.sub.a is a non-covalent, calcium ion dependent heterodimeric complex (Jennings, et al., J. Biol. Chem. 257:10458 (1982)) that is restricted in distribution to platelets and other cells of the megakaryocytic lineage (Kieffer et al., supra ). On activated platelets, GPII.sub.b III.sub.a promiscuously binds a number of protein ligands with varying affinities, including; fibrinogen, fibronectin, von Willebrand factor, vitronectin and thrombospondin (Plow et al., Biochemistry of Platelets, Phillips and Shuman eds., p. 225-256, Orlando: Academic Press [1986]). Each of these protein ligands contain at least one tripeptide sequence Arg-Gly-Asp which is commonly referred to as the "recognition sequence". It is believed the most important interactions mediating platelet aggregation involve GPII.sub.b III.sub.a binding with the trinodular fibrinogen and, to a lesser extent, with the filamentous von Willebrand factor (Kieffer et al. , supra and Albeda et al., The FASEB Journal, 4:2868-2880 [1990]).
GPII.sub.b IIII.sub.a binding to its natural ligands can be inhibited to varying degrees by peptides and proteins containing the amino acid recognition sequences; Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) (Ruoslahti, supra and EPO 0368486, assigned to Merck & Co.), Lys-Gly-Asp (KGD), and the fibrinogen .gamma.-chain carboxy-terminal dodecapeptide HHLGGAKQAGDV and analogues thereof (Timmons et al., Biochemistry, 28:2919-2992 [1989]).
B. The Hyperthrombotic State
Many common human disorders are characteristically associated with a hyperthrombotic state leading to intravascular thrombi and emboli. These are a major cause of medical morbidity, leading to infarction, stroke and phlebitis, and of mortality from stroke and pulmonary and cardiac emboli. Patients with atherosclerosis are predisposed to arterial thromboembolic phenomena for a variety of reasons. Atherosclerotic plaques form niduses for platelet plugs and thrombi that lead to vascular narrowing and occlusion, resulting in myocardial and cerebral ischemic disease. This may happen spontaneously or following procedures such as angioplasty or endarterectomy. Thrombi that break off and are released into the circulation cause infarction of different organs, especially the brain, extremities, heart and kidneys.
In addition to being involved in arterial thrombosis, platelets may also play a role in venous thrombosis. A large percentage of such patients have no antecedent risk factors and develop venous thrombophlebitis and subsequent pulmonary emboli without a known cause. Other patients who form venous thrombi have underlying diseases known to predispose them to these syndromes. Some of these patients may have genetic or acquired deficiencies of factors that normally prevent hypercoagulability, such as antithrombin-3. Others have mechanical obstructions to venous flow, such as tumor masses, that lead to low flow states and thrombosis. Patients with malignancy have a high incidence of thrombotic phenomena for unclear reasons. Antithrombotic therapy in this situation with currently available agents is dangerous and often ineffective.
Patients whose blood flows over artificial surfaces, such as prosthetic synthetic cardiac valves or through extracorporeal perfusion devices, are also at risk for the development of platelet plugs, thrombi and emboli. It is standard practice that patients with artificial cardiac valves be treated chronically with anti-coagulants. However, in all instances, platelet activation and emboli formation may still occur despite adequate anticoagulation treatment.
Thus, a large category of patients, including those with atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, artificial heart valves, cancer, and a history of stroke, phlebitis, or pulmonary emboli, are candidates for limited or chronic antithrombotic therapy. The number of available therapeutic agents is limited and these, for the most part, act by inhibiting or reducing levels of circulating clotting factors. These agents are frequently not effective against the patient's underlying hematologic problem, which often concerns an increased propensity for platelet aggregation and adhesion. They also cause the patient to be susceptible to abnormal bleeding. Available antiplatelet agents, such as aspirin, inhibit only part of the platelet activation process and are therefore often inadequate for therapy and also cause the patient to be susceptible to abnormal bleeding. An ideal anti-thrombotic drug would have many properties currently not avialable (see e.g. Sixma, et al. Thrombosis Research 67:305-311 [1992]).
C. Therapeutic Agents
An agent which effectively inhibits the final common pathway of platelet activation, namely fibrinogen binding to the GP II.sub.b III.sub.a receptor, should accordingly be useful in a large group of disorders characterized by a hyperthrombotic state described above.
Such agents include anti-thrombotic peptides and pseudopeptides capable of inhibiting platelet aggregation. Ruoslahti et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,578,079) suggest that tetrapeptides containing the RGD sequence may be used to effect platelet aggregation. Zimmerman et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,683,291) disclose that positively charged amino acid residues (eg Arg and Lys) and homologues located before or toward the amino terminus of the RGD sequence are superior for inhibiting fibrinogen-platelet binding. Adams et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,857,508) describe superior results for in-vitro inhibition of human platelet aggregation in platelet-rich plasma for linear tetrapeptides containing O-methyl-Tyr-amide immediately following the RGD (or homo-RGD) sequence. Barker et al., WO 90/01331, disclose substantially ridgid RGD cyclic peptides posessing high affinity for the GP II.sub.b III.sub.a receptor. A particularly efficacious ridgid RGD cyclic peptide described by Barker et al. is represented by the following structure: ##STR1##
Tjoeng et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,879,313) describe peptide mimetic platelet aggregation inhibitors in which the first two residues of the RGD sequence are replaced by the pseudodipeptidyl 8-guanidino-octanoyl moiety. Other peptidomimetics in which the Arg of the RGD sequence has been altered include; WO89/07609 (homo-Arg[Har]), EP 341 915 (Har and alkyl-Arg), WO90/15620 (Har and amidino derivatives eg. imidazolinyl, imidazolyl, and substituted imidazolyl), EP 422 937 (aryl-, arylalkyl-, and cycloalkyl-amines), WO91/07976 (alkylamidino and alkylamino derivatives), WO91/04247 (alkylamino and alkylguanidino proline derivatives), and WO93/07867 (p-(amidino)benzoyl amino substituted .beta. amino acid derivatives). See also EP 384 362 (glycine derivatives) and EP 381 033.
Complete replacement of all residues in the RGD sequence has been described in EP 372 486, assigned to Hoffmann La Roche, where platelet aggregation inhibitors that are derivatives of benzoic and phenylacetic acid are presented. A benzoic acid derivative inhibitor having a particular low IC.sub.50 in an ELISA measurement of fibrinogen GPII.sub.b III.sub.a binding has the following structure: ##STR2## EP 542 708 A1 assigned to Monsanto/Searle discloses related compounds that may be considered p-amidinoaniline derivatives having structures represented by: ##STR3## EP 537 980 A1 assigned to Glaxo Ltd. descloses cyclohexaneacetic acids linked through a piperidinyl or piperazinyl group to a p-amidinophenyl moiety, e.g. ##STR4##
Fibrinogen receptor antagonists possessing alternative structures can be found in EP 478,362, EP 478,363, and EP 478,328, all assigned to Merck. A representative Merck compound has the following structure: ##STR5## Also of interest are biphenyl derivatives described in EP 483,667 and EP 496,378, the latter publication providing a representitive compound having the structure; ##STR6## Quinazoline-3-alkanoic acid derivatives are also reported to have an inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation (although possibly by a different mechanism) in EP 456,835 A1. A generic formula representing these compounds is given by: ##STR7## where n is 1 to 3 and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 may be interalia hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, aralkyl groups that may be substituted with interalia --NR.sup.4 R.sup.5, where R.sup.4 or R.sup.5 may be hydrogen, lower alkyl, or connected with each other to make five- or six-membered heterocycles which may contain another heteroatom, and A--R.sup.1 may be lower alkyl.
Substituted benzodiazepines have been reported to be platelet aggregation inhibitors. WO 93/00095 (Smith-Kline Beecham) discloses bicyclic benzodiazepine fibrinogen antagonists in which the benzo moiety is preferably substituted with p-(amidino)benzoyl amino and N-4 may be substituted with carboxyethyl as represented below ##STR8## Benzodiazepinedione platelet aggregation inhibitors are described in WO 93/08174 (Genentech). A representative disclosed compound having the p-(amidino)benzoyl amino benzo substituent is ##STR9## D. Tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepines
1,4-benzodiazepines with fused 6-membered heterocyclic rings used as CCK antagonists for treatment of panic or anxiety disorders are disclosed in EP 0 519 678 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,210,082(Merck). ##STR10## where X is inter alia NH.sub.2, R.sup.2 is inter alia loweralkyl or carboxyl substituted phenyl, R.sup.3 is inter alia NHC(.dbd.O)CH(NH.sub.2)benzyl, R.sup.10 is H, OH, or methyl, W is CH, CH(alkyl), or C.dbd.O, Y is N(alkyl), C(alkyl), or C.dbd.O, and Z is N, N(alkyl), C(alkyl), or C.dbd.O. None of these tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepines is disclosed as having platelet aggregation inhibition activity.
E. Objects
It is an object of this invention to produce tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepines having potent antithrombotic activity. It is another object of the invention to produce such compounds that are essentially free of peptide bonds, substantially rigid, and stable to degradation. It is a further object to produce potent tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepine antithrombotics that specifically inhibit the GPII.sub.b III.sub.a -Fg interaction but do not strongly inhibit other RGD sensitive integrin interactions including the Vn-VnR, Fn-FnR, and GPII.sub.b III.sub.a -vWF interactions. It is still a further object to produce potent tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepine platelet aggregation inhibitors that are selective and do not significantly increase cutaneous bleeding time or diminish other hemodynamic factors. It is also an object of this invention to produce tricyclic 1,4-benzodiazepine compounds having a long half-life and a large therapeutic range. Finally it is an object of this invention to produce platelet aggregation inhibitors that have good oral bioavailability.
These and other objects of this invention will be apparent from consideration of the invention as a whole.

The term "cycloalkyl" as used herein refers to a mono-, bi-, or tricyclic aliphatic ring having 3 to 14 carbon atoms and preferably 3 to 7 carbon atoms.
The term "alkenyl" means a branched or unbranched hydrocarbon radical having the number of carbon atoms designated containing one or more carbon-carbon double bonds, each double bond being independently cis, trans, or a nongeometric isomer.
The term "alkynyl" means a branched or unbranched hydrocarbon radical having the number of carbon atoms designated containing one or more carbon-carbon triple bonds.
The terms "C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 alkylthio" and "C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 substituted alkylthio" denote C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 alkyl and C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 substituted alkyl groups, respectively, attached to a sulfur which is in turn the point of attachment for the alkylthio or substituted alkylthio group to the group or substituent designated.
The term "aryl" when used alone means a homocyclic aromatic radical whether or not fused having the number of carbon atoms designated. Preferred aryl groups include phenyl, napthyl, biphenyl, phenanthrenyl, naphthacenyl, and the like (see e.g. Lang's Handbook of Chemistry (Dean, J. A., ed) 13.sup.th ed. Table 7-2 [1985]).

As before, when either the C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 alkyl portion or the aryl portion or both are disubstituted, the substituents can be the same or different.
Examples of the term "substituted C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 arylC.sub.1 -C.sub.8 alkyl" include groups such as 2-phenyl-1-chloroethyl, 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl, 2,6-dihydroxy-4-phenyl(n-hexyl), 5-cyano-3-methoxy-2-phenyl(n-pentyl), 3-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)n-propyl, 4-chloro-3-aminobenzyl, 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-carboxy(n-hexyl), 5-(4-aminomethyl phenyl)-3-(aminomethyl)(n-pentyl), and the like.
The term "carboxy-protecting group" as used herein refers to one of the ester derivatives of the carboxylic acid group commonly employed to block or protect the carboxylic acid group while reactions are carried out on other functional groups on the compound. Examples of such carboxylic acid protecting groups include 4-nitrobenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl, 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzyl, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl, pentamethylbenzyl, 3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl, benzhydryl, 4,4'-dimethoxybenzhydryl, 2,2',4,4'-tetramethoxybenzhydryl, t-butyl, t-amyl, trityl,4-methoxytrityl, 4,4'-dimethoxytrityl, 4,4',4"-trimethoxytrityl, 2-phenylprop-2-yl, trimethylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, phenacyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, .beta.-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl, .beta.-(di(n-butyl)methylsilyl)ethyl, p-toluenesulfonylethyl, 4-nitrobenzylsulfonylethyl, allyl, cinnamyl, 1-(trimethylsilylmethyl)prop-1-en-3-yl, and like moieties. The species of carboxy-protecting group employed is not critical so long as the derivatized carboxylic acid is stable to the condition of subsequent reaction(s) on other positions of the benzodiazepinedione molecule and can be removed at the appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule. In particular, it is important not to subject the carboxy-protected benzodiazepinedione molecule to strong nucleophilic bases or reductive conditions employing highly activated metal catalysts such as Raney nickel. (Such harsh removal conditions are also to be avoided when removing amino-protecting groups and hydroxy-protecting groups, discussed below.) Preferred carboxylic acid protecting groups are the allyl and p-nitrobenzyl groups. Similar carboxy-protecting groups used in the cephalosporin, penicillin and peptide arts can also be used to protect a carboxy group substituents of the benzodiazepinedione. Further examples of these groups are found in E. Haslam, "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry", J. G. W. McOmie, Ed., Plenum Press, New York, N.Y., 1973, Chapter 5, and T. W. Greene, "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis", John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., 1981, Chapter 5. The term "protected carboxy" refers to a carboxy group substituted with one of the above carboxy-protecting groups.
As used herein the term "amide-protecting group" refers to any group typically used in the peptide art for protecting the peptide nitrogens from undesirable side reactions. Such groups include p-methoxyphenyl, 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl, benzyl, O-nitrobenzyl, di-(p-methoxyphenyl)methyl, triphenylmethyl, (p-methoxyphenyl)diphenylmethyl, diphenyl-4-pyridylmethyl, m-2-(picolyl)-N'-oxide, 5-dibenzosuberyl, trimethylsilyl, t-butyl dimethylsilyl, and the like. Further descriptions of these protecting groups can be found in "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis", by Theodora W. Greene, 1981, John Wiley and Sons, New York.

B. Utility
The present invention is the result of the unexpected discovery that substituted fused 6-7-6 or 6-7-5 membered benzodiazepine compounds defined by Formula I and II, referred to hereafter as "substituted tricyclic benzodiazepines", are capable of acting as fibrinogen receptor antagonists inhibiting both platelet aggregation and binding of fibrinogen to the platelet receptor, GPII.sub.b III.sub.a, at concentrations comparable to many of the more potent anti-aggregatory peptides of the prior art (see e.g. Ali et al. EP 341 915). Thus, the instant fibrinogen receptor antagonists are particularly useful when they inhibit the binding of fibrinogen to the GPII.sub.b III.sub.a receptor at an IC.sub.50 in a Fg/GPII.sub.b III.sub.a ELISA as described herein of at least about 35 nM, and an IC.sub.50 in a platelet aggregation (PA) assay, also described herein, of at least about 3 .mu.M. Since there is some variability in the values obtained for ELISA and PA assays in different laboratories, preferred fibrinogen receptor antagonists represented by Formula I and II will have IC.sub.50 ' s for Fg/GPII.sub.b III.sub.a ELISA's and PA assays equal to or greater than that of the prior art compound N-[3-(4-amidinobenzamido)benzoyl]-3-aminoproprionoic acid, ##STR17##
This compound is used as an internal standard and has been found to have an Fg/GPII.sub.b III.sub.a ELISA IC.sub.50 of about 25 nM and a PA inhibition assay IC.sub.50 of about 3 .mu.M when measured according to the assays described herein. Most preferred fibrinogen receptor antagonists represented by Formula I and II have IC.sub.50 's in Fg/GPII.sub.b III.sub.a ELISA of at least about 15 nM and in platelet aggregation inhibition assays of at least about 1 .mu.M or three times more potent in a platelet aggregation inhibition assay than the reference compound N-[3-(4amidinobenzamido)benzoyl]-3-aminoproprionoic acid. This reference compound is readily prepared by standard methods from commercially available precursors (e.g. .beta.-alanine, m-aminobenzoic acid, and p-amidinobenzoic acid) or may be synthesized according to the procedures set forth in EP 372 486 A2.
The compounds described in the present invention may therefore inhibit the binding of fibrinogen to its receptor on platelets, GPII.sub.b III.sub.a, and thus prevent the aggregation of platelets and the formation of platelet plugs, emboli and thrombi in the circulatory system in mammals. Thromboembolic disorders have been shown to be directly related to the susceptibility of blood platelets to aggregate. Mammals exposed to medical procedures such as angioplasty and thrombolytic therapy are particularly susceptible to thrombus formation. The compounds of the present invention can be used to inhibit thrombus formation following angioplasty. They may also be used in combination with antithrombolytic agents such as tissue plasminogen activator and its derivatives (U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,752,603; 4,766,075; 4,777,043; EP 199 574; EP 238 304; EP 228 862; EP 297 860; PCT WO89/04368; PCT WO89/00197), streptokinase and its derivatives, or urokinase and its derivatives to prevent arterial reocclusion following thrombolytic therapy. When used in combination with the above thrombolytic agents, the compounds of the present invention may be administered prior to, simultaneously with, or subsequent to the antithrombolytic agent. Mammals exposed to renal dialysis, blood oxygenation, cardiac catheterization and similar medical procedures as well as mammals fitted with certain prosthetic devices are also susceptible to thromboembolic disorders. Physiologic conditions, with or without known cause may also lead to thromboembolic disorders. Thus, the compounds described herein may be useful in treating thromboembolic disorders in mammals. The compounds described herein may also be used as adjuncts to anticoagulant therapy, for example in combination with aspirin, heparin or warfarin and other anticoagulant agents. The application of the compounds described herein for these and related disorders will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
Compounds of this invention are also useful as intermediates generally, or as precursors of inhibitors to GPII.sub.b III.sub.a or other integrin receptors and thus in addition to treating cardiovascular disease, these compounds may be usefully employed in metastatic disease, or for any disease where antagonism of RGD binding integrin receptors is indicated.

b. The linking group L
The length of the bivalent radical L appears to be important to biological activity. By length is meant the distance between the "benzo" ring and the first charge bearing N of substituent Q. For example, suitable lengths for bivalent radical L range from about 3 to about 9 and preferably 5 or 6 methylene equivalents, where any methylene group or groups may be replaced with one or more or a combination of; alkene, alkyne, aryl, heterocycle or a functional group or groups containing the heteroatoms N, O, and S, so long as the overall length is equivalent to from 3 to 9 methylene groups. These functional groups include one or more of the following: ##STR28## and may be isolated within the linker (e.g. forming ethers, thioethers, ketones, sulfoxides and the like) or combined in any combination, provided only that the compounds so produced are stable in aqueous solution and do not exceed the above stated length requirements. For example, combining these functional groups produces esters, amides, ureidos, carbamates, carbonates, sulfonamides, sulfoxides, sulfones, and the like. The linker may optionally be substituted with one or more substituents selected from loweralkyl, haloloweralkyl, loweralkoxy, cyano, hydroxy, halo, haloloweralkoxy and phenyl optionally substituted with halo or haloloweralkyl, provided only that the linker is stable in aqueous solution and does not exceed the length requirements.

D. Methods of Making
Compounds of the present invention can be prepared by methods employing standard chemical methodologies described and referenced in standard textbooks (e.g. March, J. "Advanced Organic Chemistry" McGraw-Hill, New York, 1977; Coilman, J. P., Hegedus, L. S., Norton, J. R., Finke, R. G. "Principles and Applications of Organotransition Metal Chemistry" University Science, Mill Valley, 1987; Larock, R. C. "Comprehensive Organic Transformations" Verlag, New York, 1989). For a detailed description of the preparation of the intermediate, substituted 3,4-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione 4 and of adding the substituent Q-L, see WO 93/08174.
1. 5-member heterocycles fused to 1,4-benzodiazepine
The key intermediate for synthesis of 5-member heterocycles fused to 1,4-benzodiazepines is the substituted 3,4-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione 4. The benzodiazepinedione 4 may be prepared from isatoic anhydride 1, a .beta.-alanine ester and an .alpha.-haloacetyl halide, according to Scheme 1. Methods for preparation of the isatoic anhydrides 1 are known in the art and are available from commercial sources such as Aldrich Chemical Co. ##STR1374##
Briefly, isatoic anhydride is converted to N-(2-aminobenzoyl)-.beta.-alanine ester 2 by allowing 1 to react with a .beta.-alanine ester or its salt, in the presence an organic base. The isatoic anhydride 1 may be substituted or unsubstituted, but the 5-iodo isatoic anhydride is preferred (1,X*=I). The .beta.-alanine ester may also be substituted or unsubstituted as the free amine or, more conveniently, as its salt (e.g. HCl). Generally, the reaction is conducted in a dry polar aprotic solvent, such as dimethylformamide or the like, in the presence of an equimolar amount, or up to 30% excess, of a tertiary amine as the organic base, e.g. triethylamine or 2,6-lutidine. Alternatively, the reaction may be catalysed by dimethylaminopyridine (Venuti, M. C. Synthesis 266 (1982)). The reaction requires between about 0.5 to 2 days at temperatures between about room temperature and 200.degree. C. Preferably, the reaction is conducted at 80.degree. C. for about 16 hours in dimethylformamide as the solvent. The product is isolated and purified by conventional methods, typically by solvent extraction into a compatible solvent. The product may be further purified by column chromatography or other appropriate methods.
Acylation of 2 with an .alpha.-haloacyl halide is carried out in methylene chloride under a dry inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen. The reaction is allowed to run at temperatures between 0.degree. C. and room temperature for about 2 hours, and the product 3 is isolated or purified by conventional methods.
Cyclization of the acylated N-[2-(.alpha.-bromoacetylamide)benzoyl]-.beta.-alanine ester 3 may be achieved by reaction with a base such as an alkali metal alkoxide, hydride, or carbonate in a polar solvent at temperatures between about 0.degree. C. and 100.degree. C. for about 0.5 to 2 hours. For example, a solution of the ester 3 is commonly added over a period of approximately 15 to 60 minutes to a slurry of an alkali metal carbonate in an appropriate solvent, cooled to 0.degree. C. It is preferable that the solvent will be a polar aprotic solvent such as dimethylfomamide and the alkali metal carbonate be sodium carbonate or calcium carbonate. Once the addition is complete, the reaction mixture is generally allowed to warm to room temperature and run for an additional 60 to 105 minutes after which the reaction is neutralized by the addition of a solution of an acid, such as 10% citric acid or the like, and the solvent evaporated. The product is then isolated by solvent extraction and further purified by column chromatography.
Preparation of 5-member rings fused to the substituted 3,4-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione 4 is carried out according to Scheme II-III. First, the benzodiazepine-dione 4 is treated with Lawesson's reagent to produce the thiolactam 5. Alkylation of the thiolactam 5 is carried out in a bi-phasic mixture of CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 and basic H.sub.2 O by treatment with methyl iodine and a catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate to produce the intermediate thioimidate ester 6. ##STR1375##
The thioimidate ester intermediate 6 may then be reacted with a variety of reagents to produce the fused 5-member rings of this invention according to Scheme III. ##STR1376##
Briefly, 6 may heated to reflux in a toluene/pyridine.HCl solution with a substituted propargylamine to produce the substituted imidazobenzodiazepine 7. Alternatively, 6 may be similarly refluxed with an appropriately substituted acylhydrazid to give the triazolo-benzodiazepine 8. Optionally, the thioimidate ester intermediate 6 may be reflux in toluene/pyridine.HCl with a substituted carbazate ester or .alpha.-amino acid ester to produce respectively the oxotriazolo-benzodiazepine 9 or oxoimidazolobenzodiazepine 10. Alternatively, the thiolactam 5 (Scheme II) may be reacted with an appropraitely protected .alpha.-amino acid and cyclized with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to yield 10 (see Ager et al., J. Med. Chem. 20(8):1035-1040 (1977). Finally, 6 may be heated in DMF with sodium azide to form the tetrazolo-benzodiazepine 11.
2. 6-member heterocycles fused to 1,4-benzodiazepine
6-member heterocycles fused to 1,4-benzodiazepines can be prepared by methods known in the art (see e.g. EP 0 519 678 A2). More specifically, begining with the substituted 3,4-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione 4 (Scheme I) and reacting it with Lawesson's reagent as described in Scheme II produces the thiolactam 5. This intermediate can be further reacted to produce substituted oxodiazines according to Scheme IV. ##STR1377##
Briefly, the thiolactam 5 may be treated with ammonia in the presence of a mercury (II) salt to form the intermediate amidine 12. Reacting 12 with diketene followed by cyclization with heat treatment yields the substituted pyridinone-benzodiazepine 14. Alternatively, the thiolactam 5 may be treated with methyl iodide and refluxed in toluene/pyridine.HCl with an optionally substituted anthranilate ester or a substituted .beta.-alanine ester to produce respectively the substituted quanizolino-benzodiazepine 15 or substituted pyrimidone-benzodiazepine 16.
Other substituted pyrimidone-benzodiazepines are prepared from the intermediate amidine 12 according to reaction Scheme V. ##STR1378##
Briefly, the intermediate amidine 12 is heated with ethoxymalonic acid diester to yield the carboxyethyl substituted pyrimidineone-benzodiazepine 17. Saponification of 17 yields the free acid 18 which may be decarboxylated by heating to give compound 19. Alternatively, the carboxyethyl substituted pyrimidineone-benzodiazepine 17 may be reduced with sodium cyanoborohydride to give the corresponding alcohol 20, which can be alkylated with 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-ylmethyl-p-toluenesulfonate to yield the glycerol-isopropylidene adduct 21.
The carboxyethyl substituted pyrimidone-benzodiazepine 17 also provides access to a wide variety of primary, secondary, and tertiary amine adducts as shown in Scheme VI. ##STR1379##
For example, the hydroxyethyl substituted pyrimidineone-benzodiazepine 20 can be treated with a mild oxidizing agent such as manganese dioxide to yield the corresponding aldehyde 23 which in turn can be reductively aminated to produce the primary and tertiary amines 25, 26, and 27. Optionally a Wolff-Kishner reaction converts aldehyde 23 to the methyl compound 24.
The amidine 12 of Scheme V may also be converted into triazinodiones according to Scheme VII. ##STR1380##
Briefly, amidine 12 is treated with ethoxycarbonyl isocyanate to yield compound 28. Upon heating, 28 is cyclized to the triazinodione 29. Optionally, 29 may be alkylated with an alkyl halide to give the alkyl substituted triazinodione 30.
Triazinobenzodiazepines can be prepared from benzodiazepines according to Scheme VIII. ##STR1381##
Briefly, 1,4-benzodiazepines 4 are alkylated with ethylbromoacetate and sodium hydride to give the N-1 alkylated carboxyethyl ester 31. Treatment of 31 with Lawesson's reagent produces the N-1 alkylated thiolactam 32 which, upon treatment with an alkyl substituted hydrazine, cyclizes to give the triazinobenzodiazepines 33. Alternatively, reaction of thiolactam 32 with hydrazine followed by alkylation with an alkyl halide as shown in Scheme VII yields 33.
Other triazinobenzodiazepines can be prepared from the intermediate thiolactam 5 (Scheme II) according to Scheme IX. ##STR1382##
Briefly, thiolactam 5 is treated with hydrazine to give the intermediate amidrazone 34. Amidrazone 34 may be reacted with haloaldehydes and ketones to produce hydrazones 35 which, upon heating, gives triazinobenzodiazepine 36. Alternatively, treatment of 34 with .alpha.-keto esters yields hydrazones 37 which are cyclized by heating in acetic acid to give oxo-triazinobenzodiazepines 38. Additionally, treatment of 34 with ketoacetals gives hydrazones 39 which upon treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid gives hydroxy-triazinobenzodiazepines 40. Finally, treatment of amidrazone 34 with chlorocarbonylethylformate produces the oxalic ester hydrazid 41 which is cyclized in refluxing pyridine to 1,2-dicarbonyltriazinobenzodiazepines 42 according to Scheme X. ##STR1383##
Other oxo-triazinobenzodiazepines and 5-member sulfonamides can be prepared from the intermediate thioimidate ester 6 according to Scheme XI. ##STR1384##
Treatment of 6 with hydrazinoesters yields amidrazonoesters 45 which upon heating in acetic acid gives substituted oxo-triazinobenzodiazepines 46. Compound 6 may also be reacted with .alpha.-amino sulfonic acid esters or sulfonamidrazone esters in pyridine/HCl to yield sulfonamides 43 and 44 respectively.
3. The Q-L Group
The nitrogen containing substituents Q or a precursor thereof may be added to the linker L and the combination Q-L-, usually in protected form, bonded to the "benzo" ring. Alternatively, Q or Q plus a portion of L, refered to below as L', may be added to L or a portion thereof after the "benzo" ring and the rest of the molecule have been formed. Q itself may be prepared and bonded to the "benzo" ring by standard methods published in both the scientific and patent literature (see e.g. U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,992,542, 4,997,936, 4,194,047, 5,003,076, 5,063,207, 5,063,208, and 5,079,357, and references cited therein).
In the description following, addition of Q-L- (or Q-L') to the benzene moiety of the imidazo-benzodiazepine 7 where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are both hydrogen is specified. It will be understood that these same procedures may be applied to other ring systems described in schemes I-IX above and encompassed by formula I and II. For a more comprehensive description of methods for adding Q-L- (or Q-L') to the benzene moiety of the imidazo-benzodiazepine see WO 93/08174.
Generally, conversion of the compounds having the structural formula 7 to compounds having the structural formula 48 may be accomplished by allowing 7 to react with an alkyne 47 in the presence of a palladium (II) salt, a copper (I) salt, and an organic base. Preferably, the alkyne 47 is substituted in a way such that the Y group can be synthetically converted to the positively charged Q group of structural Formula I and II. More preferably, the Y group is a protected form of the positively charged Q group. For example, alkyne 47 may be a N-Boc-amino alkyne, a benzo or alkylnitrile alkyne, a nitrobenzo alkyne, or the like.
Refering to Scheme XII, the reaction is allowed to procede in a dry organic polar aprotic solvent, such as ethyl acetate or the like, with the exclusion of oxygen, at from room temperature to 180.degree. C. for times between about 2 and 48 hours. ##STR1385## Preferably, the reaction will run with a catalytic amount of palladium(II) salt at 10 molar percent and copper (I) salt at 5 molar percent. A 2 fold excess of the alkyne 47 and a 5 fold excess of a tertiary amine as the organic base, such as triethylamine or the like, is preferred. The product 48 can be isolated by solvent extraction in to a suitable organic solvent, such as ethyl acetate, and washed with a solution of 10% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and the solvent evaporated. 48 may be further purified by column chromatography.
Preparation of compounds 49 and 50 may be achieved by selective reduction of the alkyne moiety in compounds of the general formula 48 to yield alkene 49 and alkane 50 by allowing the alkyne to stir under an atmosphere of hydrogen in the presence of a small amount of palladium on carbon. Typically, the reaction is run in an inert solvent, such as ethyl acetate, with a 5-10 molar percent by weight of 10% palladium on carbon at temperatures between about room temperature and 50.degree. C. for times between about 15 and 240 minutes. Preferably, the reaction is carried out at room temperature for 1 hour. The products are isolated by filtration of the mixture through a filter agent, such as Celite.RTM., and evaporation of solvent.
Conversion of the compounds of the general formula 48, 49, or 50 in which Y is a N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl) amino protected moiety (N-BOC) to the amino ester can be accomplished by allowing the material to react with a strong acid. Generally, the reaction is carried out by mixing the N-BOC amino ester with a large excess of concentrated solution of a strong acid, such as hydrogen chloride, dissolved in an appropriate inert solvent, such as ethyl acetate. The reaction can be conducted at a temperature between about minus 30.degree. C. and room temperature for about 0.5 to 24 hours. The reaction can be run in the presence of a molar amount of trialkylsilane, such as triethylsilane or the like. Preferably, the reaction will be carried out at room temperature for 2 hours with a molar equivalent of triethylsilane in ethyl acetate. The solvent is evaporated and the products can be further purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography using a reverse phase column.
Conversion of compounds of the general formula 48, 49, or 50 in which the Y functional group is an arylnitrile to the amino ester can be achieved by allowing the arylnitriles to react with dicobalt octacarbonyl in the presence of trimethylsilane. The reduction of a benzonitrile to a benzylamine is a known reaction (Murai, T.; Sakane, T.; Kato, S. Tetrahedron Lett. 26: 5145-5148[1985]) and is generally carried out in an inert solvent, such as toluene or the like, at 60.degree. C. for 20 hours with an 8 molar percent of dicobalt octacarbonyl and a 10 fold excess of trimethylsilane. The solvent is evaporated and the resulting material diluted with methanol and allowed to react with a 5 fold excess of potassium fluoride. The products are then isolated by solvent extraction and further purified high-pressure liquid chromatography using a reverse phase column. Conversion of the same arylnitrile compounds to their corresponding amidino esters can be accomplished by sequential reaction with hydrogen sulphide, methyl iodide, and ammonium acetate. The resulting amidino esters may be purified by either column chromatography or crytalization.
Conversion of the compounds of the general formula 48, 49, or 50 in which the Y functional group is a nitroarene, to the amino ester can be executed by a selective reduction (Bellamy, F. D.; Ou, K. Tetrahedron Lett. 25: 839-842[1984]). The reaction is generally run with a five molar excess of stannous chloride dihydrate in either ethyl acetate or ethanol as the solvent at temperatures between about 50.degree. and 100.degree. C. for times between about 15-120 minutes under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen. Preferably, the reaction is carried out at 70.degree. C. in ethanol for approximately 30 minutes. The products are then isolated by solvent extraction and further purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography using a reverse phase column.
Conversion of the amino esters to their corresponding amino acids of the structural Formula I and II involves saponification using well known conditions and reagents. For example, an aqueous solution of a strong alkali metal base, such as sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide or the like, is added to an alcoholic solution of the ester. Alcohols which may be used as the solvent for this reaction may include, for example, methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol, but, methanol is preferred. The preferred base is sodium hydroxide at a concentration between about 1 to 6N, though 2N is preferred. The reaction may be conducted at a temperature between about 0.degree. to 50.degree. C. for times between about 10 to 60 minutes. Preferably, the reaction is carried out at room temperature for 30 minutes after which the reaction is neutralized with a concentrated solution of a strong acid, such as hydrochloric acid or the like, and the solvent evaporated. The products are isolated by high-pressure liquid chromatography using a reverse phase column.
The conversion of the amino acids to their corresponding guanidino acids of the structural Formula I and II is a known reaction (Kim, K. Lin, Y. -L.; Mosher, H. S. Tetrahedron Lett. 3183-3186 [1988]). The reaction can be accomplished by allowing the amino acid to react with aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid. Generally, the reaction can be conducted with a equimolar to a 10 fold molar excess of aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid at temperatures between 0.degree. to 50.degree. C. for times between about 15 to 120 minutes in a polar protic solvent, such as methanol, water or the like. The solution, prior to the addition of aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid, may be made neutral or basic by the addition of weak base, such as an alkali metal carbonate. Preferably, for alkyl amines the amino acid will be allowed to react with a 5 fold excess aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid at room temperature for 30 minutes with 5% potassium bicarbonate in water as the reaction medium, whereas for aryl amines the amino acid will be allowed to react with an equimolar amount of aminoiminomethanesulfonic acid at room temperature for 1 hour in methanol. Generally, the reaction mixture will be made acidic by the addition of a dilute solution of an acid, such as acetic acid and the solvent evaporated. The products are isolated by high-pressure liquid chromatography using a reverse phase column.
Preparation of other tricyclic compounds containing prefered L-Q groups bonded to the benzo moiety may also be prepared from key intermediate 7 according to Schemes XIII and XIV below. ##STR1386##
Conversion of the iodoarene 7 to a synthetic precursors of 59 may be accomplished by carbonylation in an alcoholic solvent (R'OH) under a carbon monoxide atmosphere utilizing a palladium(0) catalyst. The alcoholic solvent (R'OH) must be chosen so as to allow for the selective removal of the R' group of the diester 51. For example, when R'=CH.sub.3 and R.sup.22 =tert-butyl, the alcoholic solvent is methanol, and this methyl ester functionality in 51 can be removed by mild basic hydrolysis to afford acid 52.
For preparation of the biaryl adducts 53, 7 may be allowed to react with substituted iodoaryls or arylboronates, where Y and L' are defined as above, in the presence of palladium(0). Alternatively, synthetic precursors of 58 and 60 may be prepared by converting iodoarene 7 into the aniline 56 or phenol 57 by standard procedures. Phenol 57 may be converted to ether 58 by combining with the appropriately protected alcohol and dehydrating with diethyl azodicarboxylate-triphenylphosphene (DEAD).
Precursor carboxylates 52 and anilines 56 may be converted into amides 59 and 60 in a dehydration reaction utilizing dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) with the appropriate amine or acid according to Scheme XIV. ##STR1387## The latter reaction preferably is carried out with an acyl chloride in the presence of triethylammine and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP).
4. Isomeric Products
In products of Formula I and II carbon atoms bonded to four nonidentical substituents are asymmetric. Accordingly, the compounds may exist as diastereoisomers, enantiomers or mixtures thereof. The syntheses described above may employ racemates, enantiomers or diastereomers as starting materials or intermediates. Diastereomeric products resulting from such syntheses may be separated by chromatographic or crystallization methods. Likewise, enantiomeric product mixtures may be separated using the same techniques or by other methods known in the art. Each of the asymmetric carbon atoms, when present in compounds of Formula I and II, may be in one of two configurations (R or S) and both are within the scope of the present invention.
E. Pharmaceutical Compositions
The compounds described in this invention may be isolated as the free acid or base or converted to salts of various inorganic and organic acids and bases. Such salts are within the scope of this invention. Examples of such salts include ammonium, metal salts like sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium; salts with organic bases like dicyclohexylamine, N-methyl-D-glucamine and the like; and salts with amino acids like arginine or lysine. Salts with inorganic and organic acids may be likewise prepared, for example, using hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, trifluoroacetic, methanesulfonic, malic, maleic, fumaric and the like. Non-toxic and physiologically compatible salts are particularly useful although other less desirable salts may have use in the processes of isolation and purification.
A number of methods are useful for the preparation of the salts described above and are known to those skilled in the art. For example, reaction of the free acid or free base form of a compound of Formula I and II with one or more molar equivalents of the desired acid or base in a solvent or solvent mixture in which the salt is insoluble; or in a solvent like water after which the solvent is removed by evaporation, distillation or freeze drying. Alternatively, the free acid or base form of the product may be passed over an ion exchange resin to form the desired salt or one salt form of the product may be converted to another using the same general process.
In the management of thromboembolic disorders the compounds of this invention may be utilized in compositions such as tablets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration; suppositories for rectal administration; sterile solutions or suspensions for injectable administration, and the like. Animals in need of treatment using compounds of this invention can be administered dosages that will provide optimal efficacy. The dose and method of administration will vary from animal to animal and be dependent upon such factors as weight, diet, concurrent medication and other factors which those skilled in the medical arts will recognize.
Dosage formulations of the nonpeptidyl inhibitors of the present invention are prepared for storage or administration by mixing the inhibitor having the desired degree of purity with physiologically acceptable carriers, excipients, or stabilizers. Such materials are non-toxic to the recipients at the dosages and concentrations employed, and include buffers such as phosphate, citrate, acetate and other organic acid salts; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid; low molecular weight (less than about ten residues) peptides such as polyarginine, proteins, such as serum albumin, gelatin, or immunoglobulins; hydrophilic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidinone; amino acids such as glycine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, or arginine; monosaccharides, disaccharides, and other carbohydrates including cellulose or its derivatives, glucose, mannose, or dextrins; chelating agents such as EDTA; sugar alcohols such as mannitol or sorbitol; counterions such as sodium and/or nonionic surfactants such as Tween, Pluronics or polyethyleneglycol.
Dosage formulations of the nonpeptidyl inhibitors of the present invention to be used for therapeutic administration must be sterile. Sterility is readily accomplished by filtration through sterile filtration membranes such as 0.2 micron membranes. Nonpeptidyl inhibitor formulations ordinarily will be stored in lyophilized form or as an aqueous solution. The pH of the cyclic inhibitor preparations typically will be between 3 and 11, more preferably from 5 to 9 and most preferably from 7 to 8. It will be understood that use of certain of the foregoing excipients, carriers, or stabilizers will result in the formation of cyclic polypeptide salts. While the preferred route of administration is by hypodermic injection needle, other methods of administration are also anticipated such as suppositories, aerosols, oral dosage formulations and topical formulations such as ointments, drops and dermal patches.
Therapeutic nonpeptidyl inhibitor formulations generally are paced into a container having a sterile access port, for example, an intravenous solution bag or vial having a stopper pierceable by hypodermic injection needle.
Therapeutically effective dosages may be determined by either in vitro or in vivo methods. For each particular nonpeptidyl inhibitor of the present invention, individual determinations may be made to determine the optimal dosage required. The range of therapeutically effective dosages will naturally be influenced by the route of administration. For injection by hypodermic needle it may be assumed the dosage is delivered into the body's fluids. For other routes of administration, the absorption efficiency must be individually determined for each inhibitor by methods well known in pharmacology.
The range of therapeutic dosages is from about 0.001 nM to 1.0 mM, more preferably from 0.1 nM to 100 mM, and most preferably from 1.0 nM to 50 mM.
Typical formulation of compounds of Formula I and II as pharmaceutical compositions are discussed below.
About 0.5 to 500 mg of a compound or mixture of compounds of Formula I and II, as the free acid or base form or as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, is compounded with a physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active ingredient in these compositions is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
Typical adjuvants which may be incorporated into tablets, capsules and the like are a binder such as acacia, corn starch or gelatin; an excipient such as microcrystalline cellulose; a disintegrating agent like corn starch or alginic acid; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; a sweetening agent such as sucrose or lactose; a flavoring agent such as peppermint, wintergreen or cherry. When the dosage form is a capsule, in addition to the above materials it may also contain a liquid carrier such as a fatty oil. Other materials of various types may be used as coatings or as modifiers of the physical form of the dosage unit. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, a sweetener such as sucrose, preservatives like propyl paraben, a coloring agent and a flavoring agent such as cherry. Sterile compositions for injection can be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical practice. For example, dissolution or suspension of the active compound in a vehicle such as water or naturally occurring vegetable oil like sesame, peanut, or cottonseed oil or a synthetic fatty vehicle like ethyl oleate or the like may be desired. Buffers, preservatives, antioxidants and the like can be incorporated according to accepted pharmaceutical practice.
F. Platelet Inhibition Assays
Evaluation of the Formula I and II inhibitors of the fibrinogen-platelet interaction is guided by in vitro receptor binding assays and in vitro platelet aggregation inhibition assays.
In-vitro biological activity of the compounds of Formula I and II are monitored using a modified fibrinogen-GPIIbIIIa ELISA based on the method of Nachman and Leung (J. Clin. Invest. 69:263-269 (1982)) which measures the inhibition of fibrinogen binding to purified human platelet GPIIbIIIa receptor. Human fibrinogen is prepared by the method of Lipinska, et al. (J. Lab. Clin. Med. 84:509-516 (1974)). Platelet GPII.sub.b III.sub.a is prepared by the method of Fitzgerald, et al., Anal. Biochem.,151:169-177 (1985).
Briefly, microtiter plates are coated with fibrinogen (10 mg/ml) and then blocked with TACTS buffer containing 0.5% bovine serum albumin (BSA). (TACTS buffer contains 20mM Tris.HCl, pH 7.5, 0.02% sodium azide, 2 mM calcium chloride, 0.05% Tween 20, 150 mM sodium chloride.) The plate is washed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 0.01% Tween 20 and the sample to be determined added, followed by addition of solubilized GP IIbIIIa receptor (40 mg/ml) in TACTS, 0.5% BSA. After incubation, the plate is washed and 1 mg/ml of murine anti-platelet monoclonal antibody AP3 (Newman et al., Blood 65:227-232 (1985)) is added. After another wash a goat anti-mouse IgG conjugated to horseradish peroxidase is added. A final wash is performed and developing reagent buffer (10 mg o-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride, 0.0212% hydrogen peroxide, 0.22 mM citrate, 50 mM phosphate, pH 5.0) is added and then incubated until color develops. The reaction is stopped with 1N sulfuric acid and the absorbance at 492 nm is recorded.
In addition to the GPII.sub.b III.sub.a ELISA assay, platelet aggregation assays may be performed in human platelet rich plasma (PRP). Fifty milliliters of whole human blood (9 parts) is drawn on 3.6% sodium citrate (1 part) from a donor who has not taken aspirin or related medications for at least two weeks. The blood is centrifuged at 160.times.g for 10 min at 22.degree. C. and then allowed to stand for 5 min after which the PRP is decanted. Platelet poor plasma (PPP) is isolated from the remaining blood after centrifugation at 2000.times.g for 25 min. The platelet count of the PRP is adjusted to ca. 300,000 per microliter with PPP.
A 225 mL aliquot of PRP plus 25 mL of either a dilution of the test sample or a control (PBS) is incubated for 5 min in a Chrono-log Whole Blood Aggregometer at 25.degree. C. An aggregating agent (collagen, 1 mg/ml; U46619, 100 ng/ml; or ADP, 8 mM) is added and the platelet aggregation recorded.
Without further description, it is believed that one of ordinary skill in the art can, using the preceding description and illustrative examples, make and utilize the present example to the fullest extent. The following working examples therefore, specifically point out preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting in any way the remainder of the disclosure.
