Thrombocytes (blood platelets) are a significant factor both in physiological haemostasis and in thromboembolic disorders. In particular in the arterial system, platelets are of central importance in the complex interaction between blood components and the wall of the vessel. Unwanted platelet activation may, by formation of platelet-rich thrombi, result in thromboembolic disorders and thrombotic complications with life-threatening states.
One of the most potent platelet activators is the blood coagulation protease thrombin, which is formed at injured blood vessel walls and which, in addition to fibrin formation, leads to the activation of platelets, endothelial cells and mesenchymal cells (Vu T K H, Hung D T, Wheaton V I, Coughlin S R, Cell 1991, 64, 1057-1068). In platelets in vitro and in animal models, thrombin inhibitors inhibit platelet aggregation and the formation of platelet-rich thrombi. In man, arterial thromboses can be prevented or treated successfully with inhibitors of platelet function and thrombin inhibitors (Bhatt D L, Topol E J, Nat. Rev. Drug Discov. 2003, 2, 15-28). Accordingly, there is a high probability that antagonists of thrombin action on platelets reduce the formation of thrombi and the occurrence of clinical sequelae such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Other cellular actions of thrombin, for example on endothelial and smooth-muscle cells of vessels, leukocytes and fibroblasts, are possibly responsible for inflammatory and proliferative disorders.
At least some of the cellular effects of thrombin are mediated via a family of G-protein-coupled receptors (Protease Activated Receptors, PARs), the prototype of which is the PAR-1 receptor. PAR-1 is activated by binding of thrombin and proteolytic cleavage of its extracellular N-terminus. The proteolysis exposes a new N-terminus having the amino acid sequence SFLLRN which, as agonist (“tethered ligand”) leads to intramolecular receptor activation and transmission of intracellular signals. Peptides derived from the tethered-ligand sequence can be used as agonists of the receptor and, on platelets, lead to activation and aggregation. Other proteases are likewise capable of activating PAR-1, these proteases include, for example, plasmin, factor VIIa, factor Xa, trypsin, activated protein C (aPC), tryptase, cathepsin G, proteinase 3, granzyme A, elastase and matrix metalloprotease 1 (MMP-1).
In contrast to the inhibition of protease activity of thrombin with direct thrombin inhibitors, blockade of PAR-1 should result in an inhibition of platelet activation without reduction in the coagulability of the blood (anticoagulation).
Antibodies and other selective PAR-1 antagonists inhibit the thrombin-induced aggregation of platelets in vitro at low to medium thrombin concentrations (Kahn M L, Nakanishi-Matsui M, Shapiro M J, Ishihara H, Coughlin S R, J. Clin. Invest. 1999, 103, 879-887). A further thrombin receptor with possible significance for the pathophysiology of thrombotic processes, PAR-4, was identified on human and animal platelets. In experimental thromboses in animals having a PAR expression pattern comparable to humans, PAR-1 antagonists reduce the formation of platelet-rich thrombi (Derian C K, Damiano B P, Addo M F, Darrow A L, D'Andrea M R, Nedelman M, Zhang H-C, Maryanoff B E, Andrade-Gordon P, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 2003, 304, 855-861).
In the last few years, a large number of substances have been examined for their platelet function-inhibiting action; but only a few platelet function inhibitors have been found to be useful in practice. Accordingly, there is a need for pharmaceuticals which specifically inhibit an increased platelet reaction without significantly increasing the risk of bleeding, thus reducing the risk of thromboembolic complications.
Effects of thrombin which are mediated via the receptor PAR-1 influence the progression of the disease during and after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and other surgical interventions and in particular surgical interventions with extracorporeal circulation (for example heart-lung machine). During the course of the operation, there may be bleeding complications owing to pre- or intraoperative medication with coagulation-inhibiting and/or platelet-inhibiting substances. For this reason, for example, medication with clopidogrel has to be interrupted several days prior to a CABG. Moreover, as already mentioned, a disseminated intravascular coagulation or consumption coagulopathy (DIC) may develop (for example owing to the extended contact between blood and synthetic surfaces during extracorporeal circulation or blood transfusions), which in turn can lead to bleeding complications. As the disorder progresses, there is frequently a restenosis of the venous or arterial bypasses grafted (which may even result in occlusion) owing to thrombosis, intimafibrosis, arteriosclerosis, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmias, transitory ischaemic attack (TIA) and/or stroke.
In man, the receptor PAR-1 is also expressed in other celles including, for example, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and tumour cells. Malignant tumour disorders (cancer) have a high incidence and are generally associated with high mortality. Current therapies achieve full remission in only a fraction of patients and are typically associated with severe side effects. Accordingly, there is a high demand for more effective and safer therapies. The PAR-1 receptor contributes to cancer generation, growth, invasiveness and metastasis. Moreover, PAR-1 expressed on endothelial cells mediates signals resulting in vascular growth (“angiogenesis”), a process which is vital for enabling tumour growth beyond about 1 mm3. Angiogenesis also contributes to the generation or worsening of other disorders including, for example, haematopoetic cancer disorders, macular degeneration, which leads to blindness, and diabetic retinopathy, inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and colitis.
Sepsis (or septicaemia) is a frequent disorder with high mortality. Initial symptoms of sepsis are typically unspecific (for example fever, reduced general state of health); however, as the disorder progresses there may be a general activation of the coagulation system (“disseminated intravascular coagulation” or “consumption coagulopathy” (DIC)) with the formation of microthrombi in various organs and secondary bleeding complications. DIC may also occur independently of a sepsis, for example during surgical interventions or associated with tumour disorders.
Therapy of sepsis consists, firstly, in the thorough elimination of the infectious cause, for example by operative focal reconstruction and antibiosis. Secondly, it consists in temporary intensive medical support of the affected organ systems. Treatments of the different stages of this disease have been described, for example, in the following publication (Dellinger et al., Crit. Care Med. 2004, 32, 858-873). There are no proven effective treatments for DIC.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide novel PAR-1 antagonists for the treatment of disorders such as, for example, cardiovascular disorders and thromboembolic disorders, and also tumour disorders in humans and animals.

The preparation of the compounds of the formula (I) can be illustrated by the synthesis schemes below.
The compounds according to the invention have an unforeseeable useful spectrum of pharmacological and pharmacokinetic activity. They are selective antagonists of the PAR-1 receptor acting in particular as platelet aggregation inhibitors, as inhibitors of endothelium proliferation and as inhibitors of tumour growth.
They are therefore suitable for use as medicaments for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of diseases in humans and animals.
The present invention furthermore provides the use of the compounds according to the invention for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of disorders, preferably of thromboembolic disorders and/or thromboembolic complications.
“Thromboembolic disorders” in the sense of the present invention include in particular disorders such as ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (non-STEMI), stabile angina pectoris, unstabile angina pectoris, reocclusions and restenoses after coronary interventions such as angioplasty, stent implantations or aortocoronary bypass, peripheral arterial occlusion diseases, pulmonary embolisms, deep venous thromboses and renal vein thromboses, transitory ischaemic attacks and also thrombotic and thromboembolic stroke.
Accordingly, the substances are also suitable for the prevention and treatment of cardiogenic thromboembolisms, such as, for example, brain ischaemias, stroke and systemic thromboembolisms and ischaemias, in patients with acute, intermittent or persistent cardiac arrhythmias, such as, for example, atrial fibrillation, and those undergoing cardioversion, furthermore in patients with heart valve disorders or with intravasal objects, such as, for example, artificial heart valves, catheters, intraaortic balloon counterpulsation and pacemaker probes.
Thromboembolic complications are furthermore encountered in connection with microangiopathic haemolytic anaemias, extracorporeal circulation, such as, for example, haemodialysis, haemofiltration, ventricular assist devices and artificial hearts, and also heart valve prostheses.
Moreover, the compounds according to the invention are also used for influencing wound healing, for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of atherosclerotic vascular disorders and inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatic disorders of the locomotive system, coronary heart diseases, of heart failure, of hypertension, of inflammatory disorders, such as, for example, asthma, COPD, inflammatory pulmonary disorders, glomerulonephritis and inflammatory intestinal disorders, and additionally also for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune disorders, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Moreover, the compounds according to the invention can be used for inhibiting tumour growth and the formation of metastases, for microangiopathies, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy and other microvascular disorders, and also for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic complications, such as, for example, venous thromboembolisms, for tumour patients, in particular those undergoing major surgical interventions or chemo- or radiotherapy.
The compounds according to the invention are additionally suitable for the treatment of cancer. Cancers include: carcinomas (including breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinomas, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, cancer of the colon and melanomas), lymphomas (for example non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and mycosis fungoides), leukaemias, sarcomas, mesotheliomas, brain cancer (for example gliomas), germinomas (for example testicular cancer and ovarian cancer), choriocarcinomas, renal cancer, cancer of the pancreas, thyroid cancer, head and neck cancer, endometrial cancer, cancer of the cervix, cancer of the bladder, stomach cancer and multiple myeloma.
Moreover, PAR-1 expressed on endothelial cells mediates signals resulting in vascular growth (“angiogenesis”), a process which is vital for enabling tumour growth beyond about 1 mm3. Induction of angiogenesis is also relevant for other disorders; these include disorders of the rheumatic type (for example rheumatoid arthritis), pulmonary disorders (for example pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, in particular pulmonary arterial hypertension, disorders characterized by pulmonary occlusion), arteriosclerosis, plaque rupture, diabetic retinopathy and wet macular degeneration.
In addition, the compounds according to the invention are suitable for treatment of sepsis. Sepsis (or septicaemia) is a frequent disorder with high mortality. Initial symptoms of sepsis are typically unspecific (for example fever, reduced general state of health); however, as the disease progresses there may be a general activation of the coagulation system (“disseminated intravascular coagulation” or “consumption coagulopathy”; hereinbelow referred to as “DIC”) with the formation of microthrombi in various organs and secondary bleeding complications. Moreover, there may be endothelial damage with increased permeability of the vessels and diffusion of fluid and proteins into the extravasal space. As the disorder worsens, there may be organ dysfunction or organ failure (for example kidney failure, liver failure, respiratory failure, deficits of the central nervous system and heart/circulatory failure) and even multi-organ failure. In principle, this may affect any organ; the most frequently encountered organ dysfunctions and organ failures are those of the lung, the kidney, the cardiovascular system, the coagulation system, the central nervous system, the endocrine glands and the liver. Sepsis may be associated with an “acute respiratory distress syndrome” (referred to hereinafter as ARDS). ARDS may also occur independently of sepsis. “Septic shock” is the occurrence of treatment-requiring hypotension which facilitates further organ damage and is associated with a worsening of the prognosis.
Pathogens can be bacteria (gram-negative and gram-positive), fungi, viruses and/or eukaryotes. The site of entry or primary infection may be pneumonia, an infection of the urinary tract or peritonitis, for example. The infection may, but need not necessarily, be associated with bacteriaemia.
Sepsis is defined as the presence of an infection and a “systemic inflammatory response syndrome” (hereinbelow referred to as “SIRS”). SIRS occurs during infections, but also during other states such as injuries, burns, shock, surgical interventions, ischaemia, pancreatitis, reanimation or tumours. The definition of the ACCP/SCCM Consensus Conference Committee of 1992 (Crit. Care Med. 1992, 20, 864-874) describes the symptoms required for the diagnosis “SIRS” and measurement parameters (inter alia a change in body temperature, increased heart rate, breathing difficulties and changes in the blood picture). The later (2001) SCCM/ESICM/ACCP/ATS/SIS International Sepsis Definitions Conference essentially maintained the criteria, but fine-tuned details (Levy et al., Crit. Care Med. 2003, 31, 1250-1256).
DIC and SIRS may occur during sepsis, but also as a result of surgical interventions, tumour disorders, burns or other injuries. In the case of DIC, there is a massive activation of the coagulation system at the surface of damaged endothelial cells, the surfaces of foreign bodies or injured extravascular tissue. As a consequence, there is coagulation in small vessels of various organs with hypoxia and subsequent organ dysfunction. A secondary effect is the consumption of coagulation factors (for example factor X, prothrombin, fibrinogen) and platelets, which reduces the coagulability of the blood and may result in heavy bleeding.
In addition, the compounds according to the invention can also be used for preventing coagulation ex vivo, for example for preserving blood and plasma products, for cleaning/pretreating catheters and other medical auxiliaries and instruments, including extracorporeal circulation, for coating synthetic surfaces of medical auxiliaries and instruments used in vivo or ex vivo or for platelet-containing biological samples.
The present invention furthermore provides the use of the compounds according to the invention for coating medical instruments and implants, for example catheters, prostheses, stents or artificial heart valves. Here, the compounds according to the invention can be firmly attached to the surface or, for local action, be released over a certain period of time from a carrier coating into the immediate surroundings.
The present invention further provides for the use of the compounds according to the invention for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of disorders, in particular the disorders mentioned above.
The present invention further provides for the use of the compounds according to the invention for producing a medicament for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of disorders, in particular the disorders mentioned above.

The present invention furthermore provides a method for preventing the coagulation of blood in vitro, in particular in banked blood or biological samples containing platelets, which method is characterized in that an anticoagulatory effective amount of the compound according to the invention is added.
The compounds according to the invention may act systemically and/or locally. For this purpose, they can be administered in a suitable manner, for example by the oral, parenteral, pulmonal, nasal, sublingual, lingual, buccal, rectal, dermal, transdermal, conjunctival, otic route, or as an implant or stent.
The compounds according to the invention can be administered in administration forms suitable for these administration routes.
Suitable administration forms for oral administration are those which function according to the prior art and deliver the compounds according to the invention rapidly and/or in modified fashion, and which contain the compounds according to the invention in crystalline and/or amorphized and/or dissolved form, for example tablets (uncoated or coated tablets, for example having enteric coatings or coatings which are insoluble or dissolve with a delay and control the release of the compound according to the invention), tablets which disintegrate rapidly in the mouth, or films/wafers, films/lyophilizates, capsules (for example hard or soft gelatin capsules), sugar-coated tablets, granules, pellets, powders, emulsions, suspensions, aerosols or solutions.
Parenteral administration can bypass an absorption step (e.g. intravenously, intraarterially, intracardially, intraspinally or intralumbally) or include an absorption (e.g. intramuscularly, subcutaneously, intracutaneously, percutaneously or intraperitoneally). Administration forms suitable for parenteral administration include preparations for injection and infusion in the form of solutions, suspensions, emulsions, lyophilizates or sterile powders.
Oral administration is preferred.
Suitable administration forms for the other administration routes are, for example, pharmaceutical forms for inhalation (including powder inhalers, nebulizers), nasal drops, solutions or sprays; tablets for lingual, sublingual or buccal administration, films/wafers or capsules, suppositories, preparations for the ears or eyes, vaginal capsules, aqueous suspensions (lotions, shaking mixtures), lipophilic suspensions, ointments, creams, transdermal therapeutic systems (for example patches), milk, pastes, foams, dusting powders, implants or stents.
The compounds according to the invention can be converted to the administration forms mentioned. This can be done in a manner known per se, by mixing with inert, nontoxic, pharmaceutically suitable excipients. These excipients include carriers (for example microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, mannitol), solvents (e.g. liquid polyethylene glycols), emulsifiers and dispersing or wetting agents (for example sodium dodecylsulphate, polyoxysorbitan oleate), binders (for example polyvinylpyrrolidone), synthetic and natural polymers (for example albumin), stabilizers (e.g. antioxidants, for example ascorbic acid), dyes (e.g. inorganic pigments, for example iron oxides) and flavour and/or odour correctants.
The present invention further provides medicaments comprising at least one compound according to the invention, preferably together with one or more inert nontoxic pharmaceutically suitable excipients, and the use thereof for the purposes mentioned above.
In the case of parenteral administration, it has generally been found to be advantageous to administer amounts of about 5 to 250 mg every 24 hours to achieve effective results. In the case of oral administration, the amount is about 5 to 100 mg every 24 hours.
It may nevertheless be necessary where appropriate to deviate from the stated amounts, specifically as a function of the body weight, route of administration, individual response to the active ingredient, nature of the preparation and time or interval over which administration takes place.
The percentages in the tests and examples which follow are, unless indicated otherwise, percentages by weight; parts are parts by weight. Solvent ratios, dilution ratios and concentration data for liquid/liquid solutions are based in each case on volume. “w/v” means “weight/volume”. For example, “10% w/v” means: 100 ml of solution or suspension comprise 10 g of substance.

Starting Materials
General Method 1A: Suzuki Coupling
A mixture of the appropriate bromopyridine in toluene (1.8 ml/mmol) is admixed under argon and at RT with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.02 eq.), with a solution of the appropriate arylboronic acid (1.2 eq.) in ethanol (0.5 ml/mmol) and with a solution of potassium fluoride (2.0 eq.) in water (0.2 ml/mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred under reflux for a number of hours until the conversion is substantially complete. After addition of ethyl acetate and phase separation, the organic phase is washed once with water and once with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried (magnesium sulphate), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product is purified by flash chromatography (silica gel 60, mobile phase: dichloromethane/methanol mixtures).
General Method 2A: Hydrogenation of the Pyridine
A solution of the pyridine in ethanol (9 ml/mmol) is admixed under argon with palladium on activated carbon (moistened with approx. 50% water, 0.3 g/mmol), and the mixture is hydrogenated at 60° C. in a 50 bar hydrogen atmosphere overnight. The catalyst is then filtered off over a filter layer and washed repeatedly with ethanol. The combined filtrates are concentrated under reduced pressure.
General Method 3A: Reaction with Carbamoyl Chlorides or Carbonyl Chlorides
Under argon and at 0° C., N,N-diisopropylethylamine (1.2 eq.) and the appropriate carbamoyl chloride or carbonyl chloride (1.2 eq.) are added dropwise to a solution of the piperidine in dichloromethane (2.5 ml/mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at RT. After addition of water and phase separation, the organic phase is washed three times with water and once with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried (sodium sulphate), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure.
General Method 4A: Hydrolysis
At RT, lithium hydroxide (2 eq.) is added to a solution of the appropriate ester in a mixture of tetrahydrofuran/water (3:1, 12.5 ml/mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at 60° C. and then adjusted to pH 1 using aqueous 1 N hydrochloric acid solution. After addition of water/ethyl acetate, the aqueous phase is extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are dried (sodium sulphate), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure.

The reaction mixture is stirred at 65° C. for 30 min and then overnight at 95° C. After addition of water and phase separation, the organic phase is washed with water and with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried (sodium sulphate), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product is then purified by flash chromatography (silica gel-60, mobile phase: dichloromethane/methanol mixtures). Subsequently, under argon and at RT, trifluoroacetic acid (10 eq.) is added to a solution of this boc-protected amine in dichloromethane (10 ml/mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at RT and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is coevaporated three times with toluene and dichloromethane and used without further purification for the next step.
General Method 6A: Hydrogenation of the Pyridine Using a Flow Hydrogenation Apparatus
A solution of the pyridine in concentrated acetic acid (about 35 ml/mmol) is hydrogenated in a flow hydrogenation apparatus (“H-Cube” from ThalesNano, Budapest, Hungary) (conditions: 10% Pd/C catalyst, “controlled” mode, 60 bar, 0.5 ml/min, 85° C.).

At RT, potassium tert-butoxide (10 eq.) is added to a solution of the appropriate methyl ester (1.0 eq.) in methanol (35-40 ml/mmol). The mixture is stirred at 60° C. overnight. If the conversion is incomplete, water (1.0 eq.) is added and the mixture is stirred at 60° C. until the conversion is complete. For workup, the methanol is removed under reduced pressure, the residue is admixed with water and the mixture is acidified (pH 1) with aqueous 1 N hydrochloric acid solution.

1.) In Vitro Assays
1.a) Cellular, Functional In Vitro Test
A recombinant cell line is used to identify agonists of the human protease activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) and to quantify the activity of the substances described herein. The cell is originally derived from a human embryonal kidney cell (HEK293; ATCC: American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, Va. 20108, USA). The test cell line constitutively expresses a modified form of the calcium-sensitive photoprotein aequorin which, after reconstitution with the cofactor coelenterazine, emits light when the free calcium concentration in the inner mitochondrial compartment is increased (Rizzuto R, Simpson A W, Brini M, Pozzan T.; Nature 1992, 358, 325-327). Additionally, the cell stably expresses the endogenous human PAR-1 receptor and the endogenous purinergic receptor P2Y2. The resulting PAR-1 test cell responds to stimulation of the endogenous PAR-1 or P2Y2 receptor with an intracellular release of calcium ions, which can be quantified through resulting aequorin luminescence with a suitable luminometer (Milligan G, Marshall F, Rees S, Trends in Pharmacological Sciences 1996, 17, 235-237).
For the testing of the substance specificity, the effect thereof after activation of the endogenous PAR-1 receptor is compared with the effect after activation of the endogenous purinergic P2Y2 receptor which utilizes the same intracellular signal path.
Assay Procedure:
Two days (48 hours) before the assay, the cells are plated out in culture medium (DMEM F12, supplemented with 10% FCS, 2 mM glutamine, 10 mM HEPES, 1.4 mM pyruvate, 0.1 mg/ml gentamycin, 0.15% Na bicarbonate; BioWhittaker Cat.#BE04-687Q; B-4800 Verviers, Belgium) in 384-well microtitre plates and kept in a cell incubator (96% humidity, 5% v/v CO2, 37° C.). On the day of the test, the culture medium is replaced by a tyrode solution (in mM: 140 sodium chloride, 5 potassium chloride, 1 magnesium chloride, 2 calcium chloride, 20 glucose, 20 HEPES), which additionally contains the cofactor coelenterazine (25 μM) and glutathione (4 mM), and the microtitre plate is then incubated for a further 3-4 hours. The test substances are then pipetted onto the microtitre plate, and 5 minutes after the transfer of the test substances into the wells of the microtitre plate the plate is transferred into the luminometer, a PAR-1 agonist concentration which corresponds to the EC50 is added and the resulting light signal is immediately measured in the luminometer. To distinguish an antagonist substance action from a toxic action, the endogenous purinergic receptor is immediately subsequently activated with agonist (ATP, final concentration 10 μM) and the resulting light signal is measured. The results are shown in Table A:
1.b) PAR-1 Receptor Binding Assay
Platelet membranes are incubated with 12 nM [3H]haTRAP and test substance in different concentrations in a buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5, 10 mM magnesium chloride, 1 mM EGTA, 0.1% BSA) at room temperature for 80 min. Then the mixture is transferred to a filter plate and washed twice with buffer. After addition of scintillation liquid, the radioactivity on the filter is measured in a beta counter.
1.c) Platelet Aggregation in Plasma
Platelet aggregation is determined using blood from healthy volunteers of both genders, who had not received any thrombocyte aggregation-influencing medication for the last ten days. The blood is taken up into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) which contain, as anticoagulant, sodium citrate 3.8% (1 part citrate+9 parts blood). To obtain platelet-rich plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min.
For the aggregation measurements, aliquots of the platelet-rich plasma with increasing concentrations of test substance are incubated at 37° C. for 10 min. Subsequently, aggregation is triggered by addition of a thrombin receptor agonist (TRAP6, SFLLRN) in an aggregometer and determined at 37° C. by means of the turbidimetry method according to Born (Born, G. V. R., Cross M. J., The Aggregation of Blood Platelets; J. Physiol. 1963, 168, 178-195). The SFLLRN concentration leading to maximum aggregation is, if appropriate, determined individually for each donor.
To calculate the inhibitory effect, the maximum increase of light transmission (amplitude of the aggregation curve in %) is determined within 5 minutes of addition of the agonist in the presence and absence of test substance, and the inhibition is calculated. The inhibition curves are used to calculate the concentration which inhibits aggregation by 50%.
1.c) Platelet Aggregation in Buffer
Platelet aggregation is determined using blood from healthy volunteers of both genders, who had not received any thrombocyte aggregation-influencing medication for the last ten days. The blood is taken up into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) which contain, as anticoagulant, sodium citrate 3.8% (1 part citrate+9 parts blood). To obtain platelet-rich plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min. One quarter of the volume of ACD buffer (44.8 mM sodium citrate, 20.9 mM citric acid, 74.1 mM glucose and 4 mM potassium chloride) is added to the PRP, and the mixture is centrifuged at 1000 g for 10 minutes. The platelet pellet is resuspended in wash buffer and centrifuged at 1000 g for 10 minutes. The platelets are resuspended in incubation buffer and adjusted to 200 000 cells/W. Prior to the start of the test, calcium chloride and magnesium chloride, final concentration in each case 2 mM (2M stock solution, dilution 1:1000), are added. Note: in the case of ADP-induced aggregation, only calcium chloride is added. The following agonists can be used: TRAP6 trifluoroacetate salt, collagen, human α-thrombin and U-46619. For each donor, the agonist concentration is determined
Test Procedure:
96-well microtitre plates are used. The test substance is diluted in DMSO, and 2 μl per well is initially charged. 178 μl of platelet suspension are added, and the mixture is preincubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. 20 μl of agonist are added, and the measurement in the Spectramax, OD 405 nm, is started immediately. Kinetics are determined in 11 measurements of 1 minute each. Between the measurements, the mixture is shaken for 55 seconds.
1.c) Platelet Aggregation in Fibrinogen-Depleted Plasma
Platelet aggregation is determined using blood from healthy volunteers of both genders, who had not received any thrombocyte aggregation-influencing medication for the last ten days. The blood is taken up into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) which contain, as anticoagulant, sodium citrate 3.8% (1 part citrate+9 parts blood).
Preparation of Fibrinogen-Depleted Plasma:
To obtain low-platelet plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min. The low-platelet plasma is admixed in a ratio of 1:25 with reptilase (Roche Diagnostic, Germany) and inverted cautiously. This is followed by 10 min of incubation at 37° C. in a water bath, followed directly by 10 min of incubation on ice. The plasma/reptilase mixture is centrifuged at 1300 g for 15 min, and the supernatant (fibrinogen-depleted plasma) is obtained.
Platelet Isolation:
To obtain platelet-rich plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min. One quarter of the volume of ACD buffer (44.8 mM sodium citrate, 20.9 mM citric acid, 74.1 mM glucose and 4 mM potassium chloride) is added to the PRP, and the mixture is centrifuged at 1300 g for 10 minutes. The platelet pellet is resuspended in wash buffer and centrifuged at 1300 g for 10 minutes. The platelets are resuspended in incubation buffer and adjusted to 400 000 cells/μl, and calcium chloride solution is added to a final concentration of 5 mM (dilution 1/200).
For the aggregation measurements, aliquots (98 μl of fibrinogen-depleted plasma and 80 μl of platelet suspension) are incubated with increasing concentrations of test substance at RT for 10 min. Subsequently, aggregation is triggered by addition of human alpha thrombin in an aggregometer and determined at 37° C. by means of the turbidimetry method according to Born (Born, G. V. R., Cross M. J., The Aggregation of Blood Platelets; J. Physiol. 1963, 168, 178-195).
The alpha thrombin concentration which just leads to the maximum aggregation is determined individually for each donor.
To calculate the inhibitory activity, the increase of the maximum light transmission (amplitude of the aggregation curve in %) is determined within 5 minutes after addition of the agonist in the presence and absence of test substance, and the inhibition is calculated. The inhibition curves are used to calculate the concentration which inhibits aggregation by 50%.
1.f) Stimulation of Washed Platelets and Analysis in Flow Cytometry
Isolation of Washed Platelets:
Human whole blood is obtained by venipuncture from voluntary donors and transferred into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) containing sodium citrate as anticoagulant (1 part of sodium citrate 3.8%+9 parts of whole blood). At 900 rotations per minute and 4° C., the monovettes are centrifuged for a period of 20 minutes (Heraeus Instruments, Germany; Megafuge LORS). The platelet-rich plasma is carefully removed and transferred into a 50 ml Falcon tube. ACD buffer (44 mM sodium citrate, 20.9 mM citric acid, 74.1 mM glucose) is then added to the plasma. The volume of the ACD buffer corresponds to one quarter of the plasma volume. Centrifuging at 2500 rpm and 4° C. for ten minutes sediments the platelets. Thereafter, the supernatant is cautiously decanted off and discarded. The precipitated platelets are initially carefully resuspended in one milliliter of wash buffer (113 mM sodium chloride, 4 mM disodium hydrogen phosphate, 24 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate, 4 mM potassium chloride, 0.2 mM ethylene glycol-bis(2-aminoethyl)-N,N,N′N′-tetraacetic acid, 0.1% glucose) and then made up with wash buffer to a volume which corresponds to that of the amount of plasma. The wash procedure is repeated. The platelets are precipitated by another ten-minute centrifugation at 2500 rotations and 4° C. and then carefully resuspended in a milliliter of incubation buffer (134 mM sodium chloride, 12 mM sodium hydrogen carbonate, 2.9 mM potassium chloride, 0.34 mM sodium dihydrogen carbonate, 5 mM HEPES, 5 mM glucose, 2 mM calcium chloride and 2 mM magnesium chloride) and adjusted with incubation buffer to a concentration of 300 000 platelets per μl.
Staining and Stimulation of the Human Platelets with Human α-Thrombin in the Presence or Absence of a PAR-1 Antagonist:
The platelet suspension is preincubated with the substance to be tested or the appropriate solvent at 37° C. for 10 minutes (Eppendorf, Germany; Thermomixer Comfort). Platelet activation is triggered by addition of the agonist (0.5 μM or 1 μM α-thrombin; Kordia, The Netherlands, 3281 NIH units/mg; or 30 μg/ml of thrombin receptor activating peptide (TRAP6); Bachem, Switzerland) at 37° and with shaking at 500 rotations per minute. At the time points 0, 1, 2.5, 5, 10 and 15 minutes, in each case one aliquot of 50 μl is removed and transferred into one milliliter of singly-concentrated CellFix™ solution (Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems, USA). To fix the cells, they are incubated in the dark at 4° C. for 30 minutes. The platelets are precipitated by centrifuging at 600 g and 4° C. for ten minutes. The supernatant is discarded and the platelets are resuspended in 400 μl CellWash™ (Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems, USA). One aliquot of 100 μl is transferred to a new FACS tube. 1 μl of the platelet-identifying antibody and 1 μl of the activation state-detecting antibody are made up with CellWash™ to a volume of 100 μl. This antibody solution is then added to the platelet suspension and incubated in the dark at 4° C. for 20 minutes. After staining, the mixture volume is increased by addition of a further 400 μl of CellWash™.
The platelets are identified using a fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated antibody directed against human glycoprotein IIb (CD41) (Immunotech Coulter, France; Cat. No. 0649). With the aid of the phycoerythrin-conjugated antibody directed against human glycoprotein P-selectin (Immunotech Coulter, France; Cat. No. 1759), it is possible to determine the activation state of the platelets. P-Selectin (CD62P) is localized in the α-granules of resting platelets. However, following in vitro or in vivo stimulation, it is translocalized to the external plasma membrane.
Flow Cytometry and Data Evaluation:
The samples are measured in the FACSCalibur™ Flow Cytometry System instrument from Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems, USA, and evaluation and graphic representation is carried out with the aid of the CellQuest software, Version 3.3 (Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry Systems, USA). The degree of platelet activation is determined by the percentage of CD62P-positive platelets (CD41-positive events). From each sample, 10 000 CD41-positive events are counted.
The inhibitory effect of the substances to be tested is calculated via the reduction in platelet activation, which relates to the activation by the agonist.
1.g) Platelet Aggregation Measurement Using the Parallel-Plate Flow Chamber
Platelet aggregation is determined using blood from healthy volunteers of both genders, who had not received any thrombocyte aggregation-influencing medication for the last ten days. The blood is taken up into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) which contain, as anticoagulant, sodium citrate 3.8% (1 part citrate+9 parts blood). To obtain platelet-rich plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min. One quarter of the volume of ACD buffer (44.8 mM sodium citrate, 20.9 mM citric acid, 74.1 mM glucose and 4 mM potassium chloride) is added to the PRP, and the mixture is centrifuged at 1000 g for 10 minutes. The platelet pellet is resuspended in wash buffer and centrifuged at 1000 g for 10 minutes. For the perfusion study, a mixture of 40% erythrocytes and 60% washed platelets (200 000/μl) is prepared and suspended in HEPES-tyrode buffer. Platelet aggregation under flow conditions is measured using the parallel-plate flow chamber (B. Nieswandt et al., EMBO J. 2001, 20, 2120-2130; C. Weeterings, Arterioscler Thromb. Vasc. Biol. 2006, 26, 670-675; J J Sixma, Thromb. Res. 1998, 92, 43-46). Glass slides are wetted with 100 μl of a solution of human α-thrombin (dissolved in Tris buffer) at 4° C. overnight (a-thrombin in various concentrations, for example 10 to 50 μg/ml) and then blocked using 2% BSA.
Reconstituted blood is passed over the thrombin-wetted glass slides at a constant flow rate (for example a shear rate of 300/second) for 5 minutes and observed and recorded using a microscope video system. The inhibitory effect of the substances to be tested is determined morphometrically via the reduction in platelet aggregate formation. Alternatively, the inhibition of the platelet activation can be determined by flow cytometry, for example via p-selectin expression (CD62p) (see Method 1.f).
2.) Ex Vivo Assay
2.a) Platelet Aggregation (Primates, Guinea Pigs)
Awake or anaesthetized guinea pigs or primates are treated orally, intravenously or intraperitoneally with test substances in suitable formulations. As a control, other guinea pigs or primates are treated in an identical manner with the corresponding vehicle. Depending on the mode of application, blood of the deeply anaesthetized animals is obtained by puncture of the heart or of the aorta for different periods of time. The blood is transferred into monovettes (Sarstedt, Nümbrecht, Germany) which, as anticoagulant, contain sodium citrate 3.8% (1 part citrate solution+9 parts blood). To obtain platelet-rich plasma, the citrated whole blood is centrifuged at 140 g for 20 min.
Aggregation is triggered by addition of a thrombin receptor agonist (TRAP6, SFLLRN, 50 μg/ml; in each experiment, the concentration is determined for each animal species) in an aggregometer and determined at 37° C. using the turbidimetric method according to Born (Born, G. V. R., Cross M. J., The Aggregation of Blood Platelets; J. Physiol. 1963, 168, 178-195).
To measure the aggregation, the maximum increase in the light transmission (amplitude of the aggregation curve in %) is determined within 5 minutes of addition of the agonist. The inhibitory effect of the administered test substances in the treated animals is calculated via the reduction in aggregation, based on the mean of the control animals.
3.) In Vivo Assays
3.a) Thrombosis Models
The compounds according to the invention can be studied in thrombosis models in suitable animal species in which thrombin-induced platelet aggregation is mediated via the PAR-1 receptor. Suitable animal species are guinea pigs and, in particular, primates (compare: Lindahl, A. K., Scarborough, R. M., Naughton, M. A., Harker, L. A., Hanson, S. R., Thromb Haemost 1993, 69, 1196; Cook J J, Sitko G R, Bednar B, Condra C, Mellott M J, Feng D-M, Nutt R F, Shager J A, Gould R J, Connolly T M, Circulation 1995, 91, 2961-2971; Kogushi M, Kobayashi H, Matsuoka T, Suzuki S, Kawahara T, Kajiwara A, Hishinuma I, Circulation 2003, 108 Suppl. 17, IV-280; Derian C K, Damiano B P, Addo M F, Darrow A L, D'Andrea M R, Nedelman M, Zhang H-C, Maryanoff B E, Andrade-Gordon P, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 2003, 304, 855-861). Alternatively, it is possible to use guinea pigs which have been pretreated with inhibitors of PAR-3 and/or PAR-4 (Leger A J et al., Circulation 2006, 113, 1244-1254), or transgenic PAR-3- and/or PAR-4-knockdown guinea pigs.
3.b) Impaired Coagulation and Organ Dysfunction in Disseminated Intravasal Coagulation (DIC)
The compounds according to the invention can be studied in models of DIC and/or sepsis in suitable animal species. Suitable animal species are guinea pigs and, in particular, primates, and for the study of endothelium-mediated effects also mice and rats (compare: Kogushi M, Kobayashi H, Matsuoka T, Suzuki S, Kawahara T, Kajiwara A, Hishinuma I, Circulation 2003, 108 Suppl. 17, IV-280; Derian C K, Damiano B P, Addo M F, Darrow A L, D'Andrea M R, Nedelman M, Zhang H-C, Maryanoff B E, Andrade-Gordon P, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 2003, 304, 855-861; Kaneider N C et al., Nat Immunol, 2007, 8, 1303-12; Camerer E et al., Blood, 2006, 107, 3912-21; Riewald M et al., J Biol Chem, 2005, 280, 19808-14.). Alternatively, it is possible to use guinea pigs which have been pretreated with inhibitors of PAR-3 and/or PAR-4 (Leger A J et al., Circulation 2006, 113, 1244-1254), or transgenic PAR-3- and/or PAR-4-knockdown guinea pigs.
3.b.1) Thrombin-Antithrombin Complexes
Thrombin/antithrombin complexes (referred to hereinafter as “TAT”) are a measure of the thrombin formed endogenously by coagulation activation. TATs are determined via an ELISA assay (Enzygnost TAT micro, Dade-Behring). Plasma is obtained from citrated blood by centrifugation. 50 μl of TAT sample buffer are added to 50 μl of plasma, shaken briefly and incubated at room temperature for 15 min. The samples are filtered with suction, and the well is washed 3 times with wash buffer (300 Owen). Between the wash steps, the plates are tapped to remove any residual wash buffer. Conjugate solution (100 μl) is added and the mixture is incubated at room temperature for 15 min. The samples are filtered with suction, and the well is washed 3 times with wash buffer (300 μl/well). The chromogenic substrate (100 μl/well) is then added, the mixture is incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 min, stop solution (100 μl/well) is added, and the formation of colour at 492 nm is measured (Saphire Plate reader).
3.b.2) Parameters for Organ Dysfunction
Various parameters are determined, which allow conclusions to be drawn with respect to the functional restriction of various internal organs owing to the administration of LPS, and the therapeutic effect of test substances can be assessed. Citrated blood or, if appropriate, lithium heparin blood, is centrifuged, and the plasma is used to determine the parameters. Typically, the following parameters are determined: creatinine, urea, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), total protein, total albumin and fibrinogen. The values give indications regarding kidney function, liver function, cardiovascular function and vascular function.
3.b.2) Parameters for Inflammation
The extent of the inflammatory reaction triggered by endotoxin can be demonstrated by the increase of inflammation mediators, for example interleukins (1, 6, 8 and 10), tumour necrosis factor alpha or monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, in the plasma. ELISAs or the Luminex system may be used for this purpose.
3.c) Antitumour Activity
The compounds according to the invention can be tested in models of cancer, for example in the human breast cancer model in immunodeficient mice (compare: S. Even-Ram et. al., Nature Medicine, 1988, 4, 909-914).
3.d) Antiangiogenetic Activity
The compounds according to the invention can be tested in in vitro and in vivo models of angiogenesis (compare: Caunt et al., Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2003, 10, 2097-2102; Haralabopoulos et al., Am J Physiol, 1997, C239-C245; Tsopanoglou et al., JBC, 1999, 274, 23969-23976; Zania et al., JPET, 2006, 318, 246-254).
3.e) Blood Pressure- and Heart Rate-Modulating Activity
The compounds according to the invention can be tested in in vivo models for their action on arterial blood pressure and heart rate. To this end, rats (for example Wistar) are provided with implantable radiotelemetry units, and an electronic data acquisition and storage system (Data Sciences, MN, USA) consisting of a chronically implantable transducer/transmitter unit in combination with a liquid-filled catheter is employed. The transmitter is implanted into the peritoneal cavity, and the sensor catheter is positioned in the descending aorta. The compounds according to the invention can be administered (for example orally or intravenously). Prior to the treatment, the mean arterial blood pressure and the heart rate of the untreated and treated animals are measured, and it is made sure that they are in the range of about 131-142 mmHg and 279-321 beats/minute. PAR-1-activating peptide (SFLLRN; for example doses between 0.1 and 5 mg/kg) is administered intravenously. Blood pressure and heart rate are measured at various time intervals and time spans with and without PAR-1-activating peptide and with and without a compound according to the invention (compare: Cicala C et al., The FASEB Journal, 2001, 15, 1433-5; Stasch J P et al., British Journal of Pharmacology 2002, 135, 344-355).
4.) Determination of the Solubility
Preparation of the Starting Solution (Original Solution):
At least 1.5 mg of the test substance are weighed out accurately into a wide-mouth 10 mm screw V-vial (from Glastechnik Gräfenroda GmbH, Art. No. 8004-WM-H/V150 with fitting screw cap and septum, DMSO is added to a concentration of 50 mg/ml and the vial is vortexed for 30 minutes.
Preparation of the Calibration Solutions:
The pipetting steps necessary are effected in 1.2 ml 96-deep well plates (DWP) with the aid of a liquid-handling robot. The solvent used is a mixture of acetonitrile/water 8:2.
Preparation of the Starting Solution for Calibration Solutions (Stock Solution):
833 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 10 μl of the original solution (concentration=600 μg/ml), and the mixture is homogenized. 1:100 dilutions in separate DWPs are prepared from each test substance, and these are homogenized in turn.
Calibration Solution 5 (600 ng/ml):
270 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 30 μl of the stock solution, and the mixture is homogenized.
Calibration Solution 4 (60 ng/ml):
270 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 30 μl of the calibration solution 5, and the mixture is homogenized.
Calibration Solution 3 (12 ng/ml):
400 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 100 μl of the calibration solution 4, and the mixture is homogenized.
Calibration Solution 2 (1.2 ng/ml):
270 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 30 μl of the calibration solution 3, and the mixture is homogenized.
Calibration Solution 1 (0.6 ng/ml):
150 μl of the solvent mixture are added to 150 μl of the calibration solution 2, and the mixture is homogenized.
Preparation of the Sample Solutions:
The pipetting steps necessary are effected in 1.2 ml 96-well DWPs with the aid of a liquid-handling robot. 1000 μl of PBS buffer pH 6.5 are added to 10.1 μl of the stock solution. (PBS buffer pH 6.5:61.86 g sodium chloride, 39.54 g sodium dihydrogen phosphate and 83.35 g 1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution are weighed out into a 1 litre measuring flask and made up with water, and the mixture is stirred for about 1 hour. 500 ml of this solution are added into a 5 litre measuring flask and made up with water. The pH is adjusted to 6.5 using 1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution.)
