ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides novel [1,2,3]-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine analogues, their use as medicaments, compositions containing them and processes for their preparation.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Platelet adhesion and aggregation are initiating events in arterial thrombosis. Although the process of platelet adhesion to the sub-endothelial surface may have an important role to play in the repair of damaged vessel walls, the platelet aggregation that this initiates can precipitate acute thrombotic occlusion of vital vascular beds, leading to events with high morbidity such as myocardial infarction and unstable angina. The success of interventions used to prevent or alleviate these conditions, such as thrombolysis and platelet-mediated occlusion or re-occlusion also compromises angioplasty.
A number of converging pathways lead to platelet aggregation. Whatever the initial stimulus, the final common event is a cross-linking of platelets by binding of fibrinogen to a membrane-binding site, glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa). The high anti-platelet efficacy of antibodies or antagonists for GPIIb/IIIa is explained by their interference with this final common event. However, this efficacy may also explain the bleeding problems that have been observed with this class of agent. Thrombin can produce platelet aggregation largely independently of other pathways but substantial quantities of thrombin are unlikely to be present without prior activation of platelets by other mechanisms. Thrombin inhibitors such as hirudin are highly effective anti-thrombotic agents, but again may produce excessive bleeding because they function as both anti-platelet and anti-coagulant agents (The TIMI 9a Investigators (1994),

Circulation
90, pp. 1638-1642).
It has been found that adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP) acts as a key mediator of thrombosis. ADP-induced platelet aggregation is mediated by the P
2T
receptor subtype located on the platelet membrane. The P
2T
receptor (also known as P2Y
ADP
or P2T
AC
) is primarily involved in mediating platelet aggregation/activation and is a G-protein coupled receptor. The pharmacological characteristics of this receptor have been described, for example, in the references by Humphries et al.,
Br. J. Pharmacology
, (1994), 113, 1057-1063, and Fagura et al.,
Br. J. Pharmacology
(1998)124, 157-164. Recently it has been shown that antagonists at this receptor offer significant improvements over other anti-thrombotic agents (see
J. Med Chem
. (1999) 42, 213). There is a need to find P
2T
(P2Y
ADP
or P2T
AC
) antagonists as anti-thrombotic agents.
