Definitions
- the present invention relates to previously not reported properties of the combination of a natural hormone, Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP), also named Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF), and known antihyper- tensive medicaments, known as ⁇ -2-adrenergic agonists, resulting in a therapeutic effect in heart failure, not attainable with only one of the components.
- ABP Atrial Natriuretic Peptide
- NAF Atrial Natriuretic Factor
- a medicament is created which counteracts the symptoms in heart failure and increases the pumping capacity of the heart with a synergistic effect that cannot be obtained using the two substances separately.
- Heart failure as a disorder, or rather as a syndrome, can be defined in many ways.
- the following definition (1) focuses on the impaired pumping capacity of the heart: "Heart failure is the pathophysiological state in which an abnormality of cardiac function is responsible for the failure of the heart to pump blood at a rate commensurate with the requirements of the meta ⁇ bolizing tissues”.
- Another definition (2) emphasizes the effects on the circulation for maintaining the required supply of oxygen and nutrients to the various organs, as well as the results of a disturbed hormonal balance: "Congestive heart failure is the failure of the heart to maintain cardiac output at a level which is adequate to meet the metabolic demands of the tissues with preserved normal filling pressures, and with undisturbed neurohormonal and endocrine equilibrium".
- Heart failure is a condition not only characterized by the impaired pumping capacity of the
- SUBSTITUTESHEET heart but also presenting a series of hemodynamic, neurohumoral and endocrine changes with negative consequences for the organism.
- the organism with heart failure strives to adjust the blood circula- tion in order to sustain the supply of oxygen and nutrients to vital organs as adequate as possible.
- this adjustment of the blood circulation results in an increased work load on the heart, experienced by the patient as an aggravated breathlessness, when any strain is exerted.
- Prognostically heart failure is a very serious condition, especially the stages graded New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3-4. Patients in these categories, even under treatment presently available, have a 5-year sur- vival rate comparable with rates recorded for many forms of advanced cancer.
- NYHA New York Heart Association
- the neurohumoral compensa ⁇ tion is characterized by an increased activity in the renin-angiotensin-aldsterone system and an increased secretion of vasopressin. In conditions with mild heart failure, this response will assist to sustain a normal perfusion of vital organs. However, in severe heart failure the response will tend to overcompensate and will seriously impair the peripheral circulation and tissue supply of essential nutrients and oxygen.
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET exaggerated compensation of the renin-angiotensin- aldosterone system can be suppressed by administration of blocking drugs, e.g. inhibitors of renin, aldosterone or angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) .
- blocking drugs e.g. inhibitors of renin, aldosterone or angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) .
- ACE angiotensin converting enzyme
- ANP Atrial Natriuretic Peptide
- ANF Atrial Natriuretic Factor
- the present invention describes our approach to resolve this problem and a method is outlined for restoring the positive effects on circulation by ANP, also in patients with congestive heart failure.
- Specific background to the invention Previous experiments have shown that ⁇ -2-adrenergic agonists, in addition to hypotensive effects, also induce diuresis and natriuresis in normal animals (5). Similar properties have also been ascribed to ANP and its analogues (6). In heart failure, however, a pharmacolo ⁇ gical tolerance develops against the diuretic and natriuretic effects of ⁇ -2-adrenergic agonists as well as of ANP and its analogues. Any of these substances are thus ineffective when treating heart failure and used singly.
- ra-2-adrener ⁇ ic agonists belong to a group of medicaments encompassing several chemical structures (7,8).
- the dominating pharmacological effect of an ⁇ -2- adrenergic agonist is a reversible stimulation of ⁇ -2- adrenergic receptors on the neural structures in the peripheral and central nervous systems, thereby in ⁇ hibiting the release of the transmitter-substance noradrenaline (NA) .
- NA noradrenaline
- the most recognized substance with ⁇ - 2-adrenergic agonist effects is clonidine. Its general chemical structure has been identified (8) . Other structures with similar principal effects as the clonidine-molecule have also been synthesized.
- the ⁇ -2-receptoragonists primarily included in this invention are the following preparations: methylopa, ⁇ - methyl-noradrenaline, clonidine, quanabenz and quanfacine.
- the invention likewise includes newer substances with a similar mode of action as tramazoline, tolazoline, oximetazoline, nafazoline, oxaminozoline, rilmelidine, medetmoidine and detmoidine (MPV-253).
- Clonidine or any other of the ⁇ -2-receptor agonists described, is administered in a pharmaceutically acceptable form of an atoxic salt, e.g. as chloride,
- SUBSTITUTESHEET sulphate, nitrate, phosphate, acetate, tartrate, citrate, fumarate, maleate, toluensulfonate, methansulfonate or as halide.
- This pharmaceutical preparation is composed of the active substance in combination with an acceptable carrier.
- This carrier has to be "acceptable” in the sense that it should be compatible with the other ingredients included and it must not cause harm or induce other negative effects when administered.
- the preparations referred to in this invention should be possible to produce with utilization of known pharmaceutical techniques.
- the pharmaceutical preparations include prepara ⁇ tions for oral administratation such as e.g. tablets, capsules, mixtures, slow release or extended release preparations.
- intravenous, intramuscular or subcutaneous preparations as well as pharmaceutical preparations for regional administration such as e.g. rectal, vaginal, ocular, nasal, inhalational, epidural and spinal administration is included in the invention.
- the carrier can contain one or more of the following substances: vaseline, lanoline, polyethylene glycols, glycols, beewax, mineral oil or other suitable vehicles.
- the preparation can also include solvents as water and alcohol, emulsifiers, stabilizers or other suitable substances.
- a selective inhibition of the sympathetic nervous system can also be achieved using other means than
- SUBSTITUTESHEET through activation of the ⁇ -2-adrenergic receptors.
- a specific inhibition of the release of noradrenaline from the nerve terminals using e.g. bretylium, betanidine or debrisoquine an effective blockage of the sympathetic nervous system can be attained.
- a similar repression of the sympathetic activity can also be reached through a specific inhibition of the synthesis of noradrenaline using methyltyrosine or FLA-63, or by activating 5 HT receptors of the 1A subtype by e.g. 8 OH-DPAT or flesinoxane.
- Natriuretic peptides released from the heart muscle cells include ANP (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide), con ⁇ sisting of 28 amino acids ( ⁇ ffl ⁇ -Ser-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ser-Ser- Cys-Phe-Gly-Gly-Arg-Met-Asp-Arg-Ile-Gly-Ala-Gln-Ser-Gly- Leu-Gly-Cys-Asn-Ser-Phe-Arg-Tyr-COOH) , containing a con ⁇ necting double bond between the two Cys and a BNP (Brain Natriuretic Peptide) with a somewhat longer sequence of amino acids (6,10).
- ANP The first to be identified and the most extensively studied member of the group of peptides with diuretic and natriuretic effects is ANP. Its general structure has been known since 1984 (6). Since ANP has a very short half-life, only about 1-2 minutes, with very poor or non ⁇ existent peroral absorption, synthesized analogues of ANP with longer duration and more favourable absorption characteristics were sought. By these efforts structures could be synthesized possessing the same principal pattern, as well as mode of action and effects, as the endogenous natriuretic peptides (10).
- ANP and its bioactive analogues act through a biological receptor, which is bound to particulate guanylate cyclase (GC), termed the B-receptor (10). In addition to the B-receptor there is a clearance site (C- receptor) which is biologically inactive, i.e. not bound
- C- receptor clearance site
- SUBSTITUTESHEET to GC, and acts as a clearance receptor, which intern ⁇ alizes bound ANP for lysosomal degradation (10).
- Syn ⁇ thetic compounds which occupy the C-receptor increase the concentrations of circulating ANP and may thus have a therapeutic potential.
- Such a substance is for example [des Phel06-Glyl07-Alal08-Aspll6] -ANP(103-126) or SC- 46542.
- Some chemical substances blocking the enzyme can also increase the concentrations of circulating endo ⁇ genous ANP and BNP, respectively (10).
- Examples of such substances are for example SHC 32615, SCH 34826, SCH 39370, SQ 29072, tiorfan and UK 69578.
- ANP C-receptor ligands or inhibitors of ANP degradation in combination with ⁇ -2-adrenergic agonists or other blockers of sympathetic nervous activity act in a similar way as in combination with natural ANP, as described in detail below, those substances should be considered as identical with ANP concerning the properties and effects encompassed by this invention.
- the aim of the present invention is to master the pharmaceutical tolerance (decreased responsiveness) for ANP or related natriuretic peptides developing in con ⁇ gestive heart failure and other oedematous disorders. Due to this pharmaceutical tolerance, the organism cannot adequately regulate the balance of the circulating volume in these pathophysiological conditions, resulting in a retention of water and salts, known as oedema, and progressive heart failure.
- the present invention implies the administration of a combination of chemical substances, firstly from the
- clonidine and its pharmaceutical active salts exhibit favourable qualities for augmenting or normalizing the diuretic and natriuretic effects of ANP. These results of the combination treatment have been documented in experimental models of heart failure in animals. It has been demonstrated by us that the properties of clonidine, as referred to in this inven ⁇ tion, become active in the lower range of doses normally used for inducing pharmacological effects.
- Clonidine given perorally is well absorbed and the dose can thus principally be the same in peroral and systemic administration, i.e. 75 to 900 microgram per 24 hours or 1 to 100 microgram/kg/24 hours for a man weighing 70 kg.
- doses of 100-300 microgram per 24 hours can be administered to a patient (8, 9).
- the diuretic and natriuretic effect of ANP has been investigated in control groups of normal, healthy sub ⁇ jects using various doses (from injection in high doses of 100 microgram to infusion in low doses of 0.05 micro- gram/kg/hour) (11).
- High single doses, as well as low continuous infusions, induce an increase in volume of urine passed and enhance the excretion of sodium in subjects without any heart disease.
- the present invention allows us to offer a previ ⁇ ously not known explanation of this phenomenon, showing that a combination of a low dose of for example an -2- adrenergic agonist and for example ANP will restore the normal diuretic and natriuretic response of for example ANP, otherwise lost in congestive heart failure.
- the rats were intubated and artificially ventilated with a respirator.
- a left thoracotomy was performed, exposing the heart.
- the lungs were then hyperinflated using positive end-expiratory pressure and the thoracic wall was sutured.
- the rats were allowed to recover for four weeks while a chronic heart failure condition developed.
- the group of rats treated with clonidine showed a 4-5 time increase of the urine volume already at the lowest dose administered.
- the excretion of sodium was augmented in the same order of magnitude, while the outflow of potassium increased only 0.5 times.
- the relative changes in arterial blood pressure and heart rate were similar in both groups.
- Combinations of pharmaceutical preparations from the groups of substances, which therapeutic effects have been described in detail above, can be administered to patients via systemic, oral, sublingual, buccal, nasal, rectal, or topical (transdermal) routes.
- the following types of pharmaceutical preparations can be mentioned as examples according to the invention: solution, suspension, emulsion, ointment, cream, powder, spray, clysma or suppository.
- Pharmaceutical preparations for parenteral use can encompass sterile solutions or suspensions of the active substance(s) in water or other suitable vehicles.
- Peroral preparations can include a solution, capsule, tablet or similar, together with a pharmaceut ⁇ ically applicable vehicle. Preparations in the form of suppositories can also be appropriate.
- TTS transdermal therapeutic system
- This system consists of a rear impermeable part, one polymer based reservoir of the active drug, a microporous membrane and finally an adhesive layer
