A new series of pyrazole-based factor Xa inhibitors have been identified as part of our ongoing efforts to optimize previously reported clinical candidate razaxaban. Concern over the possible formation of primary aniline metabolites via amide hydrolysis led to the replacement of the primary amide linker between the pyrazole and phenyl moieties with secondary amides. This was accomplished by replacing the aniline with a variety of heterobicycles, of which indolines were the most potent. The indoline series demonstrated subnanomolar factor Xa binding K(i)s, modest to high selectivity versus other serine proteases, and good in vitro clotting activity. A small number of indoline fXa inhibitors were profiled in a dog pharmacokinetic model, one of which demonstrated pharmacokinetic parameters similar to that of clinical candidate razaxaban.

Spumigins are marine natural products derived from cyanobacteria Nodularia spumigena, which mimics the structure of the d-Phe-Pro-Arg sequence and is crucial for binding to the active site of serine proteases thrombin and factor Xa. Biological evaluation of spumigins showed that spumigins with a (2S,4S)-4-methylproline central core represent potential lead compounds for the development of a new structural type of direct thrombin inhibitors. Herein, we represent synthesis and thrombin inhibitory activity of a focused library of spumigins analogues with indoline ring or l-proline as a central core. Novel compounds show additional insight into the structure and biological effects of spumigins. The most active analogue was found to be a derivative containing l-proline central core with low micromolar thrombin inhibitory activity.
