ABSTRACT

Factor Xa (fXa) is a serine protease involved in the coagulation cascade, which has received great interest as a potential target for the development of new antithrombotic drugs. Herein we report a novel series of fXa inhibitors in which the 1,4-diazepane moiety was designed to interact with the S4 aryl-binding domain of the fXa active site. Compound 13 (YM-96765) showed potent fXa inhibitory activity (IC(50) = 6.8 nM) and effective antithrombotic activity without prolonging bleeding time.
