RESUMO
Factor VIIa (FVIIa) inhibitors have shown strong antithrombotic efficacy in preclinical thrombosis models with limited bleeding liabilities. Discovery of potent, orally active FVIIa inhibitors has been largely unsuccessful due to the requirement of a basic P1 group to interact with Asp189 in the S1 binding pocket, limiting their membrane permeability. We have combined recently reported neutral P1 binding substituents with a highly optimized macrocyclic chemotype to produce FVIIa inhibitors with low nanomolar potency and enhanced permeability.

Previously disclosed dihydropyrazolopyrimidines are potent and selective blockers of I(Kur) current. A potential liability with this chemotype is the formation of a reactive metabolite which demonstrated covalent binding to protein in vitro. When substituted at the 2 or 3 position, this template yielded potent I(Kur) inhibitors, with selectivity over hERG which did not form reactive metabolites. Subsequent optimization for potency and PK properties lead to the discovery of ((S)-5-(methoxymethyl)-7-(1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-4,7-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl)((S)-2-(3-methylisoxazol-5-yl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)methanone (13j), with an acceptable PK profile in preclinical species and potent efficacy in the preclinical rabbit atrial effective refractory period (AERP) model.
