Bioactivity | BMS-986120 is a first-in-class oral and reversible protease-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) antagonist, with IC50s of 9.5 nM and 2.1 nM in human and monkey blood, respectively. BMS-986120 has potent and selective antiplatelet effects[1][2]. | |||||||||
Target | IC50: 9.5 nM (PAR4, human), 2.1 nM (PAR4, monkey) | |||||||||
Invitro | BMS-986120 has high binding affinity to PAR4 expressed on HEK293 cells and inhibition of PAR4-induced calcium mobilization with an IC50 of 0.56 nM[3]. | |||||||||
In Vivo | In monkeys, BMS (1 mg/kg) does not inhibit PA induced by PAR1-AP, ADP and collagen, supporting selectivity. BMS (0.2, 0.5, 1 mg/kg) reduces TW by 35±5, 49±4, and 83±4%, respectively. Maximum KBT and MBT increases are only 2.2-fold and 1.8-fold, respectively[1]. | |||||||||
