title: Antithrombotic activity of F 16618, a new PAR1 antagonist evaluated in extracorporeal arterio-venous shunt in the rat.
abstract: The purpose of the present work was the evaluation of the antithrombotic activity of a new PAR1 antagonist, F 16618 in arterio-venous shunt in the rat. Arterial thrombosis was induced by insertion of a silk thread (thrombogenic substrate) into an extracorporeal shunt. F 16618 was administered either by intravenous route (0.63-2.5mg/kg) or by oral route (20-80mg/kg). Oral activity of F 16618 was compared to that of aspirin (20-80mg/kg) and clopidogrel (0.63-10mg/kg). Finally, F 16618 was associated to aspirin and/or clopidogrel to test for possible antithrombotic activity and its effects on bleeding time. SFLLR-induced human platelet aggregation was evaluated in the presence of F 16618, demonstrating the anti-aggregant activity of this compound. F 16618 (1.25mg/kg) significantly delayed the time leading to occlusion by 52+/-17%, without affecting bleeding time and in absence of hemodynamic effects. F 16618 given orally dose-dependently increased the time to occlusion. The maximal effect was observed at 40mg/kg (984+/-95s versus 644+/-17s in vehicle group). Aspirin and clopidogrel also dose-dependently lengthened time to occlusion, but this effect was associated with an increase of bleeding time. F 16618 (20mg/kg) orally associated with either aspirin (40mg/kg) or with clopidogrel (1.25mg/kg) potentiated the antithrombotic effects of both compounds without further increasing of bleeding time. In conclusion, F 16618 exerted a potent antithrombotic activity by intravenous and oral routes, without affecting bleeding time. Furthermore, the antithrombotic activity was potentiated when combined with aspirin or clopidogrel.
