Description
Summary:Inhibitors of platelet-fibrinogen binding offer an opportunity to interrupt the final, common pathway for platelet aggregation. Small molecule inhibitors of the platelet fibrinogen receptor GPIIb/IIIa were prepared and evaluated for their ability to prevent platelet aggregation. Compound 23m (L-700,462/MK-383) inhibited in vitro platelet aggregation with an IC50 of 9 nM and demonstrated a selectivity of > 24,000-fold between platelet and human umbilical vein endothelial cell fibrinogen receptors. Dose-dependent inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation induced by ADP was achieved with i.v. infusions of 0.1-10 micrograms/kg/min of 23m in anesthetized dogs, with 10 micrograms/kg/min completely inhibiting platelet aggregation during the entire 6 h infusion protocol. Platelet aggregatability returned rapidly after the termination of the 23m infusions. These features suggest that 23m may be useful in the treatment of arterial occlusive disorders.
