Discovery of N-[2-hydroxy-6-(4-methoxybenzamido)phenyl]-4- (4-methyl-1,4-diazepan-1-yl)benzamide (darexaban, YM150) as a potent and orally available factor Xa inhibitor
Inhibitors of factor Xa (FXa), a crucial serine protease in the coagulation cascade, have attracted a great deal of attention as a target for developing antithrombotic agents. We previously reported findings from our optimization study of a high-throughpu
Synthesis and biological activity of novel 1,2-disubstituted benzene derivatives as factor Xa inhibitors
Factor Xa (fXa) is a serine protease that plays a pivotal role in the coagulation cascade. High-throughput screening of the Yamanouchi compound library yielded lead compound 1 with the ability to inhibit fXa at micromolar concentrations. To improve its fX
