Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application is a U.S. National Stage application filed under §371(e) of PCT/US2013/021749, filed Jan. 16, 2013, which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/587,030, filed on Jan. 16, 2012, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

[0002] The present invention was made with funding from National Institute of Health of Grant Nos. HL19278, U54CA143930 and MH083257. The United States Government has certain rights in this invention.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0003] The present invention relates to compounds and compositions useful for inhibiting or reducing platelet deposition, adhesion and/or aggregation. The present invention further relates to drug-eluting stent and methods of treatment or prophylaxis of thrombotic disorders, including stroke, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, abrupt closure following angioplasty or stent placement, thrombosis induced by peripheral vascular surgery, peripheral vascular disease or thrombotic disorders resulting from atrial fibrillation or inflammation.

BACKGROUND

[0004] Platelet accumulation at sites of vascular injury is a dynamic process that mediates formation of both the primary hemostatic plug and pathologic thrombus formation. The mechanisms by which platelet surface proteins direct platelet recruitment to thrombi under flow conditions have been studied in detail. In addition to directing initial platelet adhesion, cell-surface receptor interactions activate intracellular signaling. Intracellular signaling stimulates the release of thrombogenic substances from platelet granules. Signaling also mediates activation of the platelet integrin αIIbβ3 that facilitates firm adhesion of the platelets at the sites of injury.

[0005] Arterial thrombosis mediates tissue infarction in coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vascular disease, and, thus, is the single most common cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Platelets are key mediators of arterial thrombosis. Thus, the identification of compounds that inhibit platelet function is of great importance to medicine.

[0006] Platelets form the body's primary means of hemostasis and, as such, have developed an elaborate mechanism of surveying the vasculature for defects in endothelial integrity. This mechanism involves the ability to respond to subendothelial matrices, shear forces, neighboring platelets, the adrenal axis, as well as soluble proteinacious, nucleotide, and lipid signals. Despite this plethora of physiologic activators, the platelet has only a small repertoire of major functional outputs. Upon activation, platelets change shape, aggregate, and secrete their granular contents. The process of platelet activation involves the expression of activities not shared by functionally intact resting platelets, including, for example, ATP release, serotonin release, lysosomal release, alpha granule release, dense granule release, and cell surface expression of markers of activated platelets [including, but not limited to P-selectin and activated αIIbβ3 (GPIIb/IIIa) receptor]. In addition, platelet activation results in the aggregation of platelets with each other and attachment to non-platelet surrounding cells. The granular contents of platelets supply additional adhesion molecules, growth factors, coagulation enzymes and other specialized molecules instrumental in the process of thrombus formation and the initiation of the healing process.

[0007] In addition to coronary artery disease/myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral vascular disease, diseases and disorders associated with inappropriate platelet activity and arterial thrombosis also include, for example, stable and unstable angina, transient ischemic attacks, placental insufficiency, unwanted thromboses subsequent to surgical procedures (e.g., aortocoronary bypass surgery, angioplasty and stent placement, and heart valve replacement), or thromboses subsequent to atrial fibrillation. Inhibitors of platelet activity can provide therapeutic and preventive benefits for each of these diseases or disorders. It is also possible that inappropriate platelet activation plays a role in venous thrombosis, such that platelet inhibitors can be useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders associated with such thromboses.

[0008] A connection is emerging between platelet activation and inflammation, particularly allergic inflammation (e.g., in asthma) and inflammation at the sites of atherosclerotic damage. Therefore, compounds that inhibit platelet activation can also be useful in the treatment or prophylaxis of disorders involving inflammation.

[0009] There are a number of agents presently available that target platelet function. For example, aspirin is a relatively weak platelet inhibitor. However, aspirin can cause life-threatening allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

[0010] Another platelet inhibiting agent is ticlopidine (Ticlid™, Roche Pharmaceuticals). Because it requires the production of active metabolites to be effective, the effect of ticlopidine is delayed 24-48 hours. The drug can also cause thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura as well as life threatening leukopenia, nausea, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, diarrhea and skin rash.

[0011] Clopidogrel (Plavix™, Bristol-Meyers Squibb/Sanofi Pharmaceuticals) is another platelet inhibitor that requires the generation of active metabolites for its therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, clopidogrel also has a delay of at least several hours for its effect. Clopidogrel can also cause thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura. The drug has also been associated with a number of side effects, including rash, edema, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, nausea, abdominal pain, dyspepsia, diarrhea, urinary tract infections, liver enzyme elevations and arthralgia.

[0012] Prasugrel and ticagrelor have been approved as P2Y₁₂inhibitors for use as a platelet inhibitor, but similar to clopidogrel, major bleeding, including non-fatal as well as fatal bleeding was observed.

[0013] The platelet inhibitory agent abciximab (c7E3 Fab, Reopro®, manufacturer-Centocor B. V., distributor-Eli Lilly and Co.) is only available in a parenteral form. The drug can cause severe thrombocytopenia. Its antiplatelet effects last for several days unless platelet transfusions are given and, therefore, may complicate surgery that is sometimes required in the setting of life-threatening arterial occlusion (e.g., emergent cardiac surgery in the setting of a myocardial infarction).

[0014] There is only limited clinical experience with the oral anti-αIIbβ3 agents lamifiban, sibrafiban, orbofiban and xemilofiban, none of which are approved for human use. Similarly, clinical experience is limited with the phosphodiesterase inhibitors cilostazol, trapidil and trifusal. There is more clinical experience with the phosphodiesterase inhibitor dipyridamole, but its activity is relatively weak and so it is not frequently used unless combined with aspirin.

[0015] There is a need in the art for additional platelet adhesion and aggregation inhibitory agents for the treatment and prophylaxis of diseases or disorders associated with abnormalities in platelet adhesion and aggregation.

[0016] It is known that integrin αIIbβ3 is a receptor on the surface of human platelets. As a heterodimeric complex composed of both αIIb and β3 subunits, the dimer is responsible for binding adhesive plasma proteins, most notably fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor (vWF). The binding of fibrinogen, vWF and other ligands by αIIbβ3 is mediated principally though the peptide recognition sequence Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) or the fibrinogen η chain dodecapeptide HHLGGAKQAGDV. Conformational changes in αIIbβ3 are thought to occur upon the binding of ligand to the receptor, leading to the exposure of ligand-induced binding sites (LIBS) as detected by LIBS-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Electron microscopy and crystal structures of the integrin in complex with various R(K)GD-like ligands support the theory that the integrin undergoes a major conformational change after or during ligand binding.

[0017] Currently two small molecule inhibitors of the αIIbβ3 exist: a cyclic homoarginine-glycine-aspartic acid peptide (eptifibatide) and an RGD peptidomimetic (tirofiban). Both inhibitors act by competitively blocking the binding site for fibrinogen. Although both compounds have demonstrated significant clinical benefit, tirofiban (Aggrastat™, Merck and Co., Inc.) is only available in a parenteral form and can cause thrombocytopenia, dizziness and vasovagal reactions. Eptifibatide (Integrilin™, COR Therapeutics, Inc., Key Pharmaceuticals Inc.) is also only available for parenteral administration and it too can cause thrombocytopenia and hypotension. Crystal structure studies of the αIIbβ3 headpiece demonstrates that these inhibitors bind to both αIIb and to the divalent cation in the β3 subunit's metal ion dependant adhesion site (MIDAS). It is believed that the interaction with the MIDAS metal ion induces conformational changes in the β3 which leads to the increased the risk for thrombotic complications following αIIbβ3 inhibitor therapy.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0018] Previously, our scientists have identified inhibitors of αIIbβ3 that are capable of inhibiting fibrinogen binding and platelet aggregation without inducing the binding of one or more integrin β3 LIBS-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). These inhibitors are disclosed in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/514,286 (U.S. Pub. No. 2010/0150913, now U.S. Pat. No. 8,173,661) and PCT/US11/44267, the contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. Our scientists have now identified further inhibitors of αIIbβ3 that are capable of inhibiting fibrinogen binding and platelet aggregation without inducing the binding of integrin β3 LIBS. The present invention thus provides αIIbβ3 antagonists, pharmaceutical compositions, drug-eluting stent comprising αIIbβ3 antagonists and new methods of treatment and prophylaxis using αIIbβ3 antagonists.

[0115] Without being bound to any theory, it is believed that binding of ligand by the receptor induces conformational changes in αIIbβ3, exposing the ligand-induced binding sites (LIBS). With traditional αIIbβ3-inhibitors such as tirofiban and eptifibatide, binding of these compounds to both the αIIb and to the divalent cation in the β3 subunit's metal ion dependant adhesion site (MIDAS) inhibits platelet adhesion. It is believed, however, that the interaction with the β3 subunit's metal ion dependant adhesion site (MIDAS) is likely to be responsible for initiating the conformational change which results in both the thrombocytopenia and the increased mortality rate of traditional αIIbβ3 antagonists. The present invention identifies αIIbβ3 inhibitors that are capable of inhibiting fibrinogen binding without inducing the binding of one more integrin β3 LIBS-specific mAbs. Therefore, in one embodiment, the Compounds of the Invention e.g., the Compound of Formula P, I, P-II or II in free or salt form may bind to αIIb, and in some cases induce αIIb LIBS exposure, without inducing β3 LIBS exposure. Such compounds thus demonstrate specific binding to αIIbβ3 integrin and inhibition of platelet adhesion without the disadvantage of inducing the change in conformation of the β3 and consequent risk of complications following dissociation of the compounds from the αIIbβ3.

[0116] In the fifth aspect, the invention provides a drug-eluting stent wherein the drug or drugs eluted comprise the Compound of Formula P, or any of 1.1-1.43, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form as hereinbefore described. In a further embodiment of the fifth aspect, the invention provides a drug-eluting stent wherein the drug or drugs eluted comprise the Compound of Formula I, or any of 1.1-1.27, 1.41-1.43, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form as hereinbefore described. In another embodiment of the fifth aspect, the invention provides a drug-eluting stent wherein the drug or drugs eluted comprise the compound of Formula P-II or Formula II, in free or pharmaceutically acceptale salt form as hereinbefore described.

The stent may be made of metal, plastic, biodegradable or bioabsorbable material or combination thereof, e.g., stainless steel, nickel-titanium alloy, colbalt-alloy, tantalum, silicone, polytetrafluoroethylene, magnesium alloy or poly-L-lactide. For example, a stent may be a metallic stent (e.g., stainless steel, nickel-titanium alloy, colbalt alloy, or tantalum) partially or wholly coated with a biocompatible polymer, e.g., a plastic (e.g., polytetrafluoroethylene) or a polymeric carrier (e.g., phosphorylcholine or polylactic acid) which polymer comprises or is associated with the Compound P, I, P-II or II, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form as hereinbefore described, e.g., such that said Compound is presented or released in a manner and amount effective to inhibit platelet adhesion and/or aggregation in the vicinity of the stent.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0119] As used herein, the term “αIIbβ3” or “integrin αIIbβ3” refers to the receptor on the surface of human platelets. It is a heterodimeric complex composed of both αIIb and β3 subunits responsible for binding adhesive plasma proteins, most notably fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor.

[0120] The term “antagonist” refers to any ligand or molecule that binds to receptors and competitively or noncompetitively blocks the binding of ligand to that receptor. Therefore, “αIIbβ3 antagonist” refers to any ligand or molecule that competitively or noncompetitively blocks αIIbβ3.

[0121] “LIBS” refers to ligand-induced binding sites on αIIbβ3 that are presented or exposed upon the binding of a ligand or antagonist by the receptor.

[0122] “LIBS-specific mAbs” refers to monoclonal antibodies that bind to the exposed ligand-induced binding sites of αIIbβ3. Examples of LIBS-specific mAbs include AP5, PMI-1 and LIBS1.

[0123] The term “thrombotic disorders” refers to disorders characterized by formation of a thrombus that obstructs vascular blood flow. Examples of thrombotic disorders include stroke, myocardial infarction, stable or unstable angina, peripheral vascular disease, abrupt closure following angioplasty or stent placement and thrombosis induced by vascular surgery. Thrombotic disorders also include disorders characterized by formation of a thrombus caused by atrial fibrillation or inflammation.

[0124] The phrase “subject at risk of thrombotic disorders” or “subject in need thereof” includes subjects who have a history of vascular intervention (e.g. angioplasty, stent placement, aortocoronary bypass or insertion of prosthetic heart valves), cardiovascular abnormality (e.g. atrial fibrillation) or a family history of vascular diseases (e.g., coronary artery disease (CAD), systemic hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, bicuspid aortic valve, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or mitral valve prolapse). The term “subject” may include human or non-human (e.g., an animal).

[0125] The term “platelet adhesion” refers to the binding of platelet membrane proteins to fibrinogen, collagen, von Willebrand factor (vWF) or other adhesive glycoproteins (e.g., fibronectin, laminin).

[0126] The term “platelet aggregation” refers to the attachment of activated platelets one to another, which results in the formation of aggregates or clumps of activated platelets.

[0127] The phrase “inhibit or reduce platelet adhesion and/or aggregation” is intended to mean at least a 30% inhibition of platelet activity at a concentration of 100 μM or lower in a given assay, relative to platelet activity in the absence of the compound.

[0128] The phrase “antagonist known to expose β3 LIBS” herein refers to agents that induce conformational in β3, for example tirofiban.

[0129] The term “anticoagulants” herein refers to any compound or substance that either stimulates natural inhibitor of coagulant proteases or blocks the coagulation cascade. Examples of anticoagulants include, but are not limited to heparin, warfarin, phenprocoumon, fondaparinux, lepirudin, bivalirudin, argatroban, danaparoid and drotrecogin alfa.

[0130] The term “anti-platelet agents” herein refers to compound or substance that prevents platelet adhesion and/or aggregation. Examples of anti-platelet agents include, but are not limited to prasugrel, aspirin, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, ticagrelor, abciximab, eptifibatide and tirofiban.

[0131] The term “fibrinolytic agents” therefore refers to any compound or substance that lyses pathological thrombi. “Thrombolytic agents” are agents that are fibrinolytic, i.e., agents that convert plasminogen to plasmin, which lyses fibrin. Examples of fibrinolytic agents include but are not limited to streptokinase and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA).

[0132] The term “stent” herein refers to expandable wire form or perforated tube that is inserted into a natural conduit of the body, such as an artery, usually a coronary artery, to prevent or counteract a disease-induced localized flow constriction.

[0133] The term “optionally substituted” is intended to mean substituted with the substituents defined or unsubstituted. For example, phenyl optionally substituted with one or more nitro means in some instances, the phenyl is substituted with one or more nitro groups and in other instances, the phenyl is unsubstituted.

[0134] The binding of LIBS-specific mAbs to αIIbβ3 may be measured by comparing the binding of LIBS-specific mAbs to αIIbβ3 in the presence of testing compound with the binding of LIBS-specific mAbs to αIIbβ3 in the absence or presence of a control such as untreated platelets and/or other known αIIbβ3 inhibitors that are known to cause β3 LIBS exposure, e.g., tirofiban. For example, the test compound may bind to faith and optionally increases binding of at least one αIIb LIBS-specific mAb relative to binding to unactivated platelets without increasing the binding of one or more β3 LIBS-specific mAbs relative to binding to unactivated platelets and/or produces less binding relative to binding in the presence of an agent known to bind to and directly activate αIIbβ3 so as to expose β3 LIBS.

[0135] As used herein, the term “alkyl” or “alkyl chain” or “alkylene” refers to a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic hydrocarbon. Unless otherwise specified, alkyl refers to a hydrocarbon chain containing one to four carbon atoms. Examples of alkyl may include, but are not limited to methyl, ethyl, tert-butyl and the like as well as alkenyl or alkynyl substituents.

[0136] The term “C₃-C₁₀cycloalky” or “C_3-10cycloalky” refers to fully or partially saturated, carbocyclic, non-aromatic hydrocarbon radicals having three to eight carbon atoms. Examples of C₃-C₁₀cycloalkyl optionally containing one or more heteroatoms selected from a group consisting of O or N include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexyl or cyclohexenyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, morpholinyl, imidazolinyl, pyrrolidinyl. These cycloalkyl systems may be attached via the heteroatom or any other carbon on the system. C₃-C₁₀cycloalky may also refer to non-aromatic cyclic system fused to an aromatic cyclic system. An example of this includes tetrahydroquinolinyl.

[0137] The term “aryl” refers to any aromatic ring system. Aromatic compounds include phenyl, naphthyl and their derivatives.

[0138] The term “heteroaryl” is intended to mean a stable 5- to 6-membered monocyclic or 7- to 14-membered bicyclic heterocyclic ring which is saturated partially unsaturated or unsaturated (aromatic), and which consists of carbon atoms and 1, 2, 3 or 4 heteroatoms independently selected from the group consisting of N, O and S and including any bicyclic group in which any of the above-defined heterocyclic rings is fused to another ring.

[0139] The term “acyl” is intended to encompass R—C(O)— wherein R is C_1-4alkyl, wherein said alkyl is optionally substituted with one or more halo, hydroxy, or C_1-4alkoxy. One example of acyl is CH₃—C(O)—.

[0140] The Compounds of the Invention may comprise one or more chiral carbon atoms. The compounds thus exist in individual isomeric, e.g., enantiomeric or diasteriomeric form or as mixtures of individual forms, e.g., racemic/diastereomeric mixtures. Any isomer may be present in which the asymmetric center is in the (R)-, (S)-, or (R,S)-configuration. The invention is to be understood as embracing both individual optically active isomers as well as mixtures (e.g., racemic/diasteromeric mixtures) thereof. Accordingly, the Compound of the Invention may be a racemic mixture or it may be predominantly, e.g., in pure, or substantially pure, isomeric form, e.g., greater than 70% enantiomeric excess (“ee”), preferably greater than 80% ee, more preferably greater than 90% ee, most preferably greater than 95% ee. The purification of said isomers and the separation of said isomeric mixtures may be accomplished by standard techniques known in the art (e.g., column chromatography, preparative TLC, preparative HPLC, simulated moving bed and the like)

[0141] Compounds of the Invention may exist in free or salt form, e.g., as acid addition salts (e.g., hydrochloric acid, toluene sulfonic acid, methane sulfonic acid, benzene sulfonic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, and the like). In this specification, unless otherwise indicated language such as Compounds of the Invention is to be understood as embracing the compounds in any form, for example free or acid addition salt form, or where the compounds contain acidic substituents, in base addition salt form. The Compounds of the Invention are intended for use as pharmaceuticals, therefore pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred. Salts which are unsuitable for pharmaceutical uses may be useful, for example, for the isolation or purification of free Compounds of the Invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are therefore also included. In particular embodiment, the salt of the compound of the invention is a trifluoroacetic acid addition salt.

[0142] Compounds of the Invention may in some cases also exist in prodrug form. A prodrug form is compound which converts in the body to a Compound of the Invention. For example, when the Compounds of the Invention contain hydroxy or carboxy substituents, these substituents may form physiologically hydrolysable and acceptable esters. As used herein, “physiologically hydrolysable and acceptable ester” means esters of Compounds of the Invention which are hydrolysable under physiological conditions to yield acids (in the case of Compounds of the Invention which have hydroxy substituents) or alcohols (in the case of Compounds of the Invention which have carboxy substituents) which are themselves physiologically tolerable at doses to be administered. For example, wherein the compounds of the invention contains a hydroxy group (e.g., Drug-OH), the prodrug (e.g., Drug-O—C(O)—CH₃) may hydrolyze under physiological conditions to yield hydroxy (Drug-OH) on the one hand and acid, e.g., carboxylic acid on the other (e.g., CH₃COOH), which are themselves physiologically tolerable at doses to be administered. Similarly, wherein the compounds of the invention contains a carboxylic acid group (e.g., Drug-C(O)OH), its prodrug (e.g., Drug-C(O)—O—CH₂CH₃) may hydrolyze under physiological conditions to yield the carboxylic acid (Drug-C(O)OH) on the one hand and alcohol, e.g., ethanol on the other (e.g., CH₃CH₂OH), which are themselves physiologically tolerable at doses to be administered. As will be appreciated the term thus embraces conventional pharmaceutical prodrug forms.

[0143] Compounds of the present invention may be administered orally or parenterally, including intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, transdermal, airway (aerosol), rectal, vaginal and topical (including buccal and sublingual) administration. The compounds useful in the invention may generally be provided in the form of tablets or capsules, as a powder or granules, or as an aqueous solution or suspension. Tablets for oral use may include the active ingredients mixed with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients such as inert diluents, disintegrating agents, binding agents, lubricating agents, sweetening agents, flavouring agents, colouring agents and preservatives. Suitable inert diluents include sodium and calcium carbonate, sodium and calcium phosphate, and lactose, while corn starch and alginic acid are suitable disintegrating agents. Binding agents may include starch and gelatin, while the lubricating agent, if present, will generally be magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. If desired, the tablets may be coated with a material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate, to delay absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.

[0144] Dosages of the compounds of the invention will vary depending upon the condition to be treated or prevented and on the identity of the inhibitor being used. Estimates of effective dosages and in vivo half-lives for the individual compounds encompassed by the invention can be made on the basis of in vivo testing using an animal model, such as the mouse model described herein or an adaptation of such method to larger mammals. Appropriate dosage may range from 0.01 mg to 5000 mg. For example, one appropriate dosage may be 0.01-30 mg/Kg, e.g., 26.5 mg/Kg, e.g., 12 mg/Kg.

[0145] In addition to their administration singly, the compounds useful according to the invention can be administered in combination or in conjunction with other known therapeutic agents useful for thrombotic disorders such as anticoagulants (e.g., heparin, warfarin, phenprocoumon, fondaparinux, lepirudin, bivalirudin, argatroban, danaparoid, drotrecogin alfa), fibrinolytic agents (e.g., streptokinase or tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) or other anti-platelet agents (e.g., prasugrel, aspirin, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, ticagrelor, abciximab, eptifibatide and tirofiban). In any event, the administering physician can adjust the amount and timing of drug administration on the basis of results observed using standard measures of platelet activity known in the art or described herein.

Example 1

[0192] The compound of Example 1 is prepared as described as described or similarly described in the procedures below:

[0193]

Example 1

2-amino-N-(3-bromo-5-(5-oxo-7-(piperazin-1-yl)-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)acetamide

[0194]

[0195] Step 1:

[0196] To a solid mixture of 3-bromo-5-nitrobenzoic acid (660 mg, 2.68 mmol) and hydrazinecarbothioamide (244 mg, 2.68 mmol) is added POCl₃(0.500 ml, 5.37 mmol) dropwise with ice/water cooling. The mixture is heated at 80° C. for 3 h. After cooling to room temperature, some EtOAc is added to the sticky mixture which is slowly transferred to ice water. Saturated aqueous NaHCO₃solution is added to adjust pH=9 and the yellow precipitate is filtered, washed first with water then with EtOAc to give the desired product (580 mg, 72%).

[0197] Step 2:

[0198] To a solution of 5-(3-bromo-5-nitrophenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (0.550 g, 1.827 mmol) in CH₃CN (15 ml) is added methyl 3-chloro-3-oxopropanoate (0.235 ml, 2.192 mmol). The mixture is microwaved at 100° C. for 12 min. After cooling to room temperature, POCl₃(5.96 ml, 63.9 mmol) and ⁱ⁻Pr₂NEt (0.319 ml, 1.827 mmol) is added and the mixture is microwaved at 150° C. for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, excess POCl₃and CH₃CN are removed in vacuo and the residue is dissolved in DCM and poured into ice. The DCM solution is washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO₃solution. The organic and aqueous layers filtered through Celite and the organic layer is separated. The organic layer is washed with brine, dried over Na₂SO₄. After the removal of organic solvent in vacuo, the crude residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (EtOAc/DCM: 1/100 to 1/20 gradient) to give the desired product (250 mg, 35%) as a yellow solid.

[0199] Step 3:

[0200] To a mixture of 2-(3-bromo-5-nitrophenyl)-7-chloro-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyridin-5-one (312 mg, 0.81 mmol) and tert-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate (180 mg, 0.968 mmol) in CH₃CN (6 ml) is added ⁱ⁻Pr₂NEt (0.21 ml, 1.21 mmol) and the mixture is microwaved at 100° C. for 2 h. After cooling to room temperature, solid starts to precipitate out. The solid is filtered and washed with EtOAc and collected. The filtrate is concentrated in vacuo and the crude residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (MeOH/DCM: 1/100 to 1/20 gradient) to give another portion of product. The total amount of desired product is 355 mg (82%).

[0201] Step 4:

[0202] To a suspension of tert-butyl 4-(2-(3-bromo-5-nitrophenyl)-5-oxo-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (460 mg, 0.86 mmol) in EtOH (5 ml) and water (1 ml) are added iron powder (239 mg, 4.38 mmol) and NH₄Cl (137 mg, 2.57 mmol) and the mixture is heated at 70° C. for 5 h. After cooling to room temperature, EtOAc (30 ml) is added and the mixture is further stirred for 10 min then filtered through a pad of Celite. The combined filtrate is washed with brine and the organic layer is dried over Na₂SO₄. After the removal of EtOAc in vacuo, the crude residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (MeOH/DCM: 1/100 to 1/20 gradient) to give the desired product (380 mg, 88%).

[0203] Step 5:

[0204] To a solution of tert-butyl 4-(2-(3-amino-5-bromophenyl)-5-oxo-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (30.0 mg, 0.059 mmol) in DMF (2 ml) are added Boc-Gly-OH (20.7 mg, 0.118 mmol), HATU (45.0 mg, 0.118 mmol) and ⁱ⁻Pr₂NEt (31 μl, 0.177 mmol). The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 h. EtOAc (10 ml) is added and the solution is washed with H₂O and brine. The organic layer is dried over Na₂SO₄. After removing EtOAc, the residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (MeOH/DCM: 1/100 to 1/20 gradient) to give the desired product (33 mg, 84%).

[0205] Step 6:

[0257] The compounds of Examples 14-B and 14-C are prepared as described or similarly described in the procedures below:

Example 14-B

2-amino-N-(4-(5-oxo-7-(piperazin-1-yl)-5H-[1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-2-yl)pyridin-2-yl)acetamide

[0258]

[0259] Step 1:

[0260] To a suspension of thiosemicarbazide (0.52 g, 5.68 mmol) in pyridine (3 ml) cooled with ice/water is added 2-chloroisonicotinoyl chloride (1.00 g, 5.68 mmol) dropwise. The addition is completed in 20 min. Then the mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 4 h. The mixture is poured into ice/water and the solid starts to precipitate. The solid is filtered and washed with minimum amount of EtOAc to remove impurities to give the desired product as a white solid (0.60 g, 46%).

[0261] Step 2:

[0262] Polyphosphoric acid (PPA) (20 ml) is preheated at 100° C. To this hot PPA is added 2-(2-chloroisonicotinoyl)hydrazinecarbothioamide (3.50 g, 15.17 mmol) portionwise. After the addition, the mixture is further stirred at this temperature for 1 h. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture is slowly poured into ice and the pH is adjusted to 9.0 with addition of ammonium hydroxide solution (37 wt % in water). The solid precipitates out and is filtered, washed with EtOAc (3×50 ml). The EtOAc is combined and washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate. After the removal of most EtOAc, the solid is filtered which is combined with the solid obtained in the first filtration to give a light yellow solid (2.80 g, 87%).

[0263] Step 3:

[0264] To a solution 5-(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine (0.500 g, 2.35 mmol) in CH₃CN (13 ml) is added methyl 3-chloro-3-oxopropanoate (0.278 ml, 2.59 mmol).

After cooling to room temperature, POCl₃(4.37 ml, 47 mmol) and Hunig's base (0.411 ml, 2.35 mmol) is added and the mixture is microwaved at 150° C. for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, excess POCl₃and CH₃CN are removed in vacuo and the residue is dissolved in DCM and poured into ice. The DCM solution is washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO₃solution and the organic layer is separated (due to the formation of polyphosphoric acid, filtration of the organic and aqueous layers through Celite is needed to remove the sticky material). The organic layer is washed with brine, dried over Na₂SO₄. After the removal of organic solvent in vacuo, the crude residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (EtOAc/DCM: 1/100 to 1/20 gradient) to give the desired product (120 mg, 17%) as a yellow solid.

After cooling to room temperature, solid starts to precipitate out. The solid is filtered and washed with EtOAc and collected. The filtrate is concentrated in vacuo and the crude residue is purified by Biotage column chromatography (MeOH/DCM: 1/100 to 1/10 gradient) to give another portion of product. The total amount of desired product is 446 mg (yield: 82%).

[0267] Step 5:

The microwave tube is purged with nitrogen for 1 min then sealed. The mixture is microwaved at 90° C. for 2 h. After cooling to room temperature, EtOAc (30 ml) and water (30 ml) are added. The organic layer is separated, washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. After the removal of organic solvent in vacuo, the residue is purified through Biotage column chromatography (MeOH/DCM=1/100 to 5/20) to give the desired product (188 mg, 90%).

[0269] Step 6:

Platelet Adhesion and/or Aggregation

[0292] To determine platelet adhesion and/or aggregation, the platelet adhesion assay may be conducted by a modification of the assay as described in Blue et al., Blood 2008, 111, 1248, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Thirty microliters of human fibrinogen (50 μg/mL) in Tris/saline (100 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.4; American Diagnostica, Stamford, Conn.) may be added to black, clear-bottom, untreated polystyrene, nonsterile 384-well microtiter plate wells (Corning no. 3711; Acton, Mass.). After incubating at 22° C. for 1 hour, plates may be washed 3 times with Tris/saline, and wells are ma be blocked with HBMT (138 mM NaCl, 12 mM NaHCO₃, 10 mM HEPES, 2.7 mM KCl, 0.4 mM NaH₂PO₄, 0.1% glucose, 0.35% BSA, pH 7.4) for at least 1 hour. An additional wash may be performed using HBMT with 1 mM MgCl₂and 2 mM CaCl₂. Calcein-labeled platelets (final concentration 1×10¹¹/L) may be treated with Compounds of the Invention (final concentration of 100 μM, 30 μM, 10 μM or 1 μM) at 22° C. for 20 minutes. Thirty microliters of platelets may then be added to the wells. After 1 hour of adhesion, wells may be washed 3 times with HBMT-1 mM MgCl₂/2 mM CaCl₂and the plates may be read by a fluorescent microtiter plate reader (Envision; Perkin Elmer) to detect calcein fluorescence (490 nm excitation and 515 nm emission). Negative controls consist of wells containing platelets without compounds of the invention. Positive controls are wells containing platelets and known inhibitors of αIIbβ3, including mAbs 7E3 and 10E5, and EDTA.

[0293] The platelet aggregation assay may be conducted by modification of the assay as disclosed in Blue et al., Blood 2008, 111, 1248, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Citrated platelet-rich plasma (PRP), may be generated by the centrifugation of whole blood at 650 g for 4 minutes at 22° C., and may then be incubated in aggregometer cuvettes with Compounds of the Invention (final concentration of 100 μM, 30 μM, 10 μM, 1 μM, 0.30 μM, 0.1 μM, 0.03 μM and 0.01 μM) or controls for 15 minutes at 37° C. After 30 seconds in the aggregometer (Bio/Data PAP8; Horsham, Pa.) at 37° C. with stiffing, ADP (5-20 μM) may be added to induce aggregation and the light transmittance is measured for 8 minutes. The initial slopes of aggregation in the presence of different concentrations of the Compound tested may be used to generate an IC₅₀.

[0294] It is expected that the platelet adhesion and/or aggregation studies of various Compounds of the Invention will exhibit an IC₅₀value of less than 100 μM in a platelet aggregation study and/or inhibition of greater than 20%, preferably, greater than 30% at a concentration of 100 μM in a platelet adhesion study.

[0295] Using the platelet aggregation assay as similarly described above, the compound of Examples 14-B and 14-C inhibit platelet aggregation with an IC₅₀of 53.6±15.5 nM and 62.0±10.0 nM, respectively.
