ABSTRACT:
This application is a 371 of PCT/JP96/02027 filed Jul. 19, 1996.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to novel penicillaminamide derivatives. More specifically, the present invention relates to penicillaminamide derivatives and salts thereof which have inhibitory activity against proteases, in particular, antithrombotic activity. The present invention also relates to protease inhibitors comprising said substances as active ingredients.
BACKGROUND ART
It is well known that various kinds of proteases exist in living bodies. For example, the existence of a class of serine proteases such as thrombin, factor Xa, factor IXa, factor VIIa, trypsin, plasmin, tissue plasminogen activator, kallikrein, C1 enzyme in complement, C3/C5 convertase, and tryptase are known. It is also known that various kinds of diseases are caused when these proteases are abnormally activated by. Accordingly, substances having inhibitory activity against these proteases are expected to be useful as medicaments.
For example, it is known that antithrombotic agents are effective as therapeutic medicaments for thrombosis, and for this reason, developments of protease inhibitors having antithrombotic activity have been progressing. However, these inhibitors have several problems of, for example, insufficient stability in vivo or non-selectivity to serine proteases other than thrombin, or decrease of antithrombotic activity when administered orally. Therefore, the inhibitors are not satisfactory for practical applications.
Some tripeptide derivatives containing a moiety of arginine derivative are also known as protease inhibitors. For example, D-phenylalanyl-L-prolyl-L-arginal is known as a thrombin inhibitor (for example, Folia Haematol. 109, 22 (1982)). However, this compound is relatively unstable in a living body (J. Med. Chem., 33, 1729 (1990)). There are also several reports about arginal derivatives (Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication No. (Hei)4-89498/1992; and WO 9315756), amidinophenyl-alanine derivatives (Thromb. Res., 17, 425 (1980)), arginine ketoamide derivatives (WO 9408941), boron compound derivatives (For example, J. Biol. Chem., 265, 18289 (1990), Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication Nos. Hei 4-330094/1992 and (Hei)6-298795/1994, and WO 9425049). However, the derivatives have a problem in that they have low enzymatic selectivity among serine proteases belonging to thrombin homologue, in particular, trypsin. Guanidine derivatives (Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication No. (Hei)6-25195/1994) and tetrasubstituted cyclohexylamine derivatives (WO 9425051) were reported as thrombin-specific inhibitors, however, their efficacy cannot be expected by oral administration.
Under the above-described circumstances, the inventor of the present invention conducted various research to find substances which have practically satisfactory enzyme selectivity, oral availability, and stability in vivo, and are structurally novel. As a result, they found that the penicillaminamide derivatives set forth below have desired properties, and thus achieved the present invention.
