Abstract
FXV673 is a novel, potent, and selective factor Xa (FXa) inhibitor. FXV673 inhibited human, dog, and rabbit FXa with a K(i) of 0.52, 1.41, and 0.27 nM, respectively. FXV673 also displayed excellent specificity toward FXa relative to other serine proteases. It showed selectivity of more than 1000-fold over thrombin, activated protein C (aPC), plasmin, and tissue-plasminogen activator (t-PA). FXV673 prolonged plasma activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) in a dose-dependent fashion. In the APTT assays, the concentrations (microM) required for doubling coagulation time were 0.41 (human), 0.65 (monkey), 1.12 (dog), 0.25 (rabbit), and 0.80 (rat). The concentrations (microM) required in the PT assays were 1.1 (human), 1.32 (monkey), 2.31 (dog), 0.92 (rabbit), and 1.69 (rat). A coupled-enzyme assay was performed to measure thrombin activity following prothrombinase conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. FXV673 showed IC(50)s of 1.38 and 2.55 nM, respectively, when artificial phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (PS/PC) liposomes or fresh platelets were used as the phospholipid source for prothrombinase complex formation. It was demonstrated that FXV673 could inhibit further thrombin generation in the prothrombinase complex using PS/PC liposomes. FXV673 dose-dependently prolonged the time to vessel occlusion and inhibited thrombus formation in well-characterized canine models of thrombosis. Interspecies extrapolation (approximately 2.5-fold higher sensitivity for FXa inhibition in human than in dog) suggested that 100 ng/ml of FXV673 would be an effective plasma concentration for clinical studies. Currently FXV673 is undergoing clinical studies to be developed as an antithrombotic agent.

Abstract
Factor Xa (fXa) plays a pivotal role in the activation of the coagulation system during thrombosis, but, unlike GPIIb/IIIa receptor antagonists, the role of fXa inhibition in arterial passivation is not well defined. We compared the long-term antithrombotic efficacy of a direct fXa inhibitor, FXV673, and heparin after short-term infusion in conscious dogs. Dogs were instrumented surgically to induce carotid artery thrombosis by electrolytic injury. On day 1, dogs received a 3-h infusion of placebo (n = 10), FXV673 (100 microg/kg + 10 microg/kg/min, n = 7), or heparin (60 U/kg + 0.7 U/kg/min, n 7). Injury (100 microA) was initiated concomitantly for 1 h. The procedure was repeated on day 2 with injury of 200 microA for 3 h. Carotid artery blood flow (CBF) and coagulation parameters were monitored continuously for 3 h on days 1 and 2 and for 30 min on days 3, 4, and 5. On day 1 at 3 h, CBF in the placebo-treated group was 26% of baseline with 70% incidence of occlusion. None of the vessels occluded in the heparin and FXV673 groups; however, the CBF was significantly higher in the FXV673 group (92+/-8 ml/min versus 39+/-12 ml/min). Before injury on day 2, CBF recovered in all groups to 71-89% of baseline. After the second injury, all vessels in the placebo-treated group progressed to complete occlusion by 3 h. CBF was significantly higher in FXV673 group compared with heparin throughout the 3-h period. On days 3, 4, and 5 the placebo-treated vessels remained occluded, but the CBF in the heparin group was 33+/-20 ml/min, 55+/-11 ml/min and 68+/-12 ml/min, respectively, compared with 84+/-10 ml/min, 98+/-7 ml/min, and 99+/-10 ml/min in the FXV673 group. The arterial thrombus mass was significantly lower in FXV673 group (13+/-4 mg) compared with placebo (103+/-10 mg) and heparin (44+/-11 mg). In summary, these data demonstrate that short-term infusion of FXV673 was associated with long-term efficacy that was superior to standard heparin and underscore the role of direct fXa inhibition in arterial passivation.

Abstract
RPR 130737 inhibited factor Xa (FXa) with a Ki of 2.4 nM and also displayed excellent specificity toward FXa relative to other serine proteases. It showed selectivity of more than 1000-fold over thrombin, activated protein C, plasmin, tissue-plasminogen activator and trypsin. RPR 130737 prolonged plasma activated partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time in a dose-dependent fashion. In the activated partial thromboplastin time assay, the concentrations required for doubling coagulation time were 0.32 microM (human), 0.61 microM (monkey), 0.44 microM (dog), 0.15 microM (rabbit), and 0.82 microM (rat). The concentrations required to double prothrombin time were 0.86 microM (human), and 1.26 microM (monkey), 1.15 microM (dog), 0.39 microM (rabbit) and 7.31 microM (rat). Kinetic studies revealed that RPR 130737 was a fast binding, reversible and competitive inhibitor for FXa when Spectrozyme FXa, a chromogenic substrate, was used. A coupled-enzyme assay measuring thrombin activity following prothrombinase conversion of prothrombin to thrombin indicated that RPR 130737 was a potent inhibitor for prothrombinase-bound FXa. In this assay, RPR 130737 showed IC50s of 17 nM and 35.9 nM, respectively when artificial phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (PS/PC) liposomes or gel-filtered platelets were used as the phospholipid source. An FX-deficient plasma clotting-time correction assay further demonstrated that RPR 130737 was a specific inhibitor of FXa. RPR 130737 showed no effect on platelet aggregation in vitro. These results indicate that RPR 130737 has the potential to be developed as an antithrombotic agent based on its potent and selective inhibitory effect against FXa.

Abstract
Coagulation factor Xa is the sole enzyme responsible for activating the zymogen prothrombin to thrombin, resulting in fibrin generation, platelet activation, and subsequent thrombus formation. Our objective was to evaluate the antithrombotic efficacy of the novel factor Xa inhibitor, 2-(3-carbamimidoyl-benzyl)-3-[(3', 4'dimethoxy-biphenyl-4-carbonyl)-amino]-butyric acid methyl ester-trifluoroacetate (RPR208566), in a well-established rat model of arterial thrombosis, and to compare the results with those obtained with argatroban and heparin, direct and indirect inhibitors of thrombin, respectively. Thrombus formation was initiated by placing a filter paper saturated with FeCl(2) on the adventia of the carotid artery for 10 min. Time-to-occlusion was measured from initiation of injury until blood flow reached zero. Formed thrombi were removed and weighed 60 min after the placement of the filter paper. RPR208566, heparin, and argatroban dose-dependently increased time-to-occlusion and reduced thrombus mass. When administered at 500 microgram/kg+50 microgram/kg/min, RPR208566 prolonged time-to-occlusion to 56+/-4 min (vs. 18+/-2 min for vehicle) and reduced thrombus mass to 3.0+/-0.7 mg (vs. 7.3+/-0.6 mg for vehicle). The highest doses of argatroban (500 microgram/kg+50 microgram/kg/min) and heparin (300 U/kg+10 U/kg/min) increased time-to-occlusion to the maximum of 60 min and decreased thrombus mass to 5.5+/-0.8 and 2.6+/-0.3, respectively. The antithrombotic effects of heparin and argatroban at these doses were associated with increases in activated partial thromboplastin time of 5.6+/-0.9- and 2.9+/-0.3-fold over baseline, respectively. However, the highest dose of RPR208566 produced a modest 1.3+/-0.1-fold increase in activated partial thromboplastin time. These results indicate that factor Xa inhibition with compounds such as RPR208566 may be an attractive mechanism for novel antithrombotic drug therapy.

Abstract
The serum/plasma protein binding and blood distribution of artemether and lumefantrine was studied in vitro. The techniques used were the erythrocyte partitioning and ultrafiltration methods with 1499%, respectively. Under physiological protein concentrations, the distribution in blood showed that 33% of artemether was bound to alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein, 17% to albumin, 12% to high density lipoproteins (HDL), 9.3% to low density lipoproteins (LDL) and 12% to very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), with binding capacities (nKa) of 3.2 x 10(5), 6.2 x 10(3), 2.1 x 10(5), 1.7 x 10(6) and 2.0 x 10(7) lmol(-1), respectively. 77% of lumefantrine was bound to HDL, 7.3% to LDL and 6.6% to VLDL, with binding capacities of 2.7 x 10(7), 2. 6 x 10(7) and 2.4 x 10(8) lmol(-1), respectively. A negligible fraction of lumefantrine was bound to albumin and alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein. The fraction in erythrocytes was around 10% for both artemether and lumefantrine.

Abstract
The discovery of a series of non-peptide factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors incorporating 3-(S)-amino-2-pyrrolidinone as a central template is described. After identifying compound 4, improvements in in vitro potency involved modifications of the liphophilic group and optimizing the angle of presentation of the amidine group to the S1 pocket of FXa. These studies ultimately led to compound RPR120844, a potent inhibitor of FXa (K(i) = 7 nM) which shows selectivity for FXa over trypsin, thrombin, and several fibrinolytic serine proteinases. RPR120844 is an effective anticoagulant in both the rat model of FeCl(2)-induced carotid artery thrombosis and the rabbit model of jugular vein thrombus formation.

Abstract
The binding of iralukast to plasma (or serum) proteins and to erythrocytes was studied in vitro, at +37 degrees C, using the erythrocyte partitioning method (EPM) and/or ultrafiltration (UF) with 14C-labelled iralukast. Iralukast was highly bound in human and animal serum (>99%). Similar bound fraction values were obtained with the two methods: in whole human plasma (or serum) 99.8% (EPM) and 99.9% (UF), in albumin solution 99.8% (EPM and UF), in high density lipoprotein solution 97.3% (EPM) and 98.3% (UF), and in low density lipoprotein solution 97.2% (EPM) and 98.8% (UF). Moreover, the erythrocyte partitioning method allowed the evaluation of other binding parameters. The binding capacity (l/micromol) of proteins equalled 35 for low density lipoproteins, 3.6 for high density lipoproteins, 1.0 for albumin, 0.78 for alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, and 0.03 for gamma globulins. In whole blood, iralukast was distributed between plasma and erythrocytes in the proportion (%) 90/10. At physiological protein concentrations, iralukast was primarily bound to albumin (79%).

Abstract
The discovery and some of the basic structure-activity relationships of a series of novel nonpeptide inhibitors of blood coagulation Factor Xa is described. These inhibitors are functionalized beta-alanines, exemplified by 2a. Docking experiments placing 2a in the active site of Factor Xa implied that the most expeditious route to enhancing in vitro potency was to modify the group occupying the S3 site of the enzyme. Increasing the hydrophobic contacts between the inhibitor and the enzyme in this region led to 8, which has served as the prototype for this series. In addition, an enantioselective synthesis of these substituted beta-alanines was also developed.

Abstract
Selective high-performance liquid chromatographic methods for the simultaneous determination of pirprofen and five of its metabolites either in plasma or in urine before and after chemical hydrolysis were developed. After addition of an internal standard and a buffer, the compounds were extracted from plasma using reversed-phase C18 Bond-Elut columns and from urine using pre-packed silica Extrelut 1 columns, back-extraction into sodium hydroxide and acidification of the alkaline phase before injection. Pirprofen, its five metabolites and the internal standard were separated using a linear elution gradient chromatographic system and wavelength programming. The analysis of spiked samples demonstrated the good accuracy and precision of the methods with limits of quantitation of 100 or 200 ng/ml for the different compounds in plasma, 200 or 360 ng/ml in urine without hydrolysis and 1 or 1.8 micrograms/ml in urine after chemical hydrolysis.

Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed to determine the (+)- and (-)-enantiomers of pirprofen, an anti-inflammatory drug. After addition of an internal standard, the plasma sample was brought onto a glass column pre-packed with silica and eluted with dichloromethane. The extracts were derivatized with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole and R (+)-1-methylbenzylamine to form the two diastereomeric amides. The diastereoisomers were separated on a chiral column by HPLC with ultraviolet detection at 272 nm using n-hexane-dichloromethane (64:36, v/v) as the mobile phase. The limit of quantitation was 0.992 mumol/l (0.25 microgram/ml) for each enantiomer.

Abstract
Thirty-two pregnant hypertensive patients were treated with oxprenolol administered in combination with dihydralazine as Trasipressol tablets. Before delivery, oxprenolol was demonstrable in the maternal plasma and the amniotic fluid. The free fraction of oxprenolol in the maternal serum (15% +/- 7.8; mean +/- s.d.; n = 25) was similar to that in normal serum. At the end of delivery, oxprenolol was found in both the maternal and umbilical plasma in most cases. Measurable, but low oxprenolol concentrations were present in the newborn plasma. After delivery, oxprenolol was demonstrable in the maternal plasma and breast milk. An infant weighing 3 kg and consuming 500 ml of breast milk per day would receive a maximum dose 60 times less than the normal daily dose for a hypertensive adult (4 mg/kg).

Abstract
Twenty-six patients with various inflammatory diseases of the knee were treated with a 400 mg dose of pirprofen orally twice a day for 2 days. On the third day, samples of blood and synovial fluid were taken 3 h and 10 h approximately after a fifth 400 mg dose of the drug. Pirprofen concentrations, as determined by gas-liquid chromatography, were higher in plasma than in synovial fluid during the 2-5 h period post-dosing. They decreased with an elimination half-life of 6 h in plasma as against 41 hours in synovial fluid. This study demonstrates that pirprofen diffuses into the synovial fluid where it remains significantly longer than in plasma.

Abstract
Plasma concentration profiles were studied after single and oral doses of phenylbutazone of 100, 300, and 600 mg in cachets to six healthy volunteers. The pharmacokinetics of phenylbutazone can be described by a two-compartment open model. The drug is absorbed rapidly and distributed partially into an extravascular compartment; about one-third remains in the plasma. The mean elimination half-life was 77 hr (54-99 hr), and there was a linear relationship between the dose and the area under the plasma concentration curve. In a multiple-dose study, six healthy volunteers received 150 mg of phenylbutazone in cachets twice daily every 11-13 hr for 17 days. A steady state was reached after approximately 200 hr of chronic treatment. The resultant steady-state plasma concentration were about four times higher than the peak concentration produced by a single 150-mg dose. The half-lives corresponding to the apparent elimination rate constant for the first and last administrations did not differ in each subject. The theoretical minimum concentrations are higher than the pseudosteady state reached during chronic treatment.
