Popis: The effects of KBT-3022 and its metabolite desethyl KBT-3022 on platelet aggregation were determined in rat, guinea-pig, rabbit and human platelets in-vitro and ex-vivo. KBT-3022 and desethyl KBT-3022 inhibited platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid and collagen in-vitro more potently than aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate, platelet-activating factor or thrombin, as well as by acetylsalicylic acid, and their effects were approximately 100 times more potent than those of acetylsalicylic acid. Desethyl KBT-3022, but not KBT-3022 or acetylsalicylic acid, inhibited thrombin-induced aggregation and 5-hydroxytryptamine release from platelets more potently than ticlopidine hydrochloride at higher concentrations. Oral administration of KBT-3022 inhibited both arachidonic acid- and collagen-induced platelet aggregation and reduced platelet retention in a glass-bead column approx. 100 times more potently than acetylsalicylic acid. KBT-3022 showed little or no anti-inflammatory effect on either ultraviolet-induced erythema or arachidonic acid induced ear oedema, and had lower gastro-ulcerogenicity than acetylsalicylic acid. These results suggest that KBT-3022 is a potent inhibitor of platelet activation with weak side-effects.
