Description

Combination
Field of application of the invention
The invention relates to the combination of certain known active compounds for therapeutic purposes.
The substances used in the combination according to the invention are known active compounds from the PDE4-inhibitor class and active compounds from the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) class.
Known technical background
In the International Patent Application WO01/58441 the treating of an inflammatory disease by administering a phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor in combination with an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, NSAIDS being exemplary, is disclosed.
Description of the invention
The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is often associated with the development of gastro-intestinal (Gl) side effects such as gastric erosions and ulcer, which limit their widespread clinical use.
Investigations into the role of several NSAIDs in inhibiting the phosphodiesterase 4 and 5 in vitro showed that in partially purified or recombinant PDE4 and PDE5, NSAIDs with preferential COX-2 selectivity (for example, nimesulide [INN], CGP28238 [Research Code], L-745337 [Research Code], and the highly selective drug celecoxib [INN]) possess PDE4 and PDE5 activity in the μM range, whereas conventional NSAIDs (for example, acetylsalicylic acid, diclofenac [INN] or indometacin [INN]) show only minor effects.
In isolated guinea pig Langendorff hearts, celecoxib selectively increased coronary heart flow at doses consistent with its inhibitory potency on PDE4 and 5, but had no effect on left ventricular pressure and heart rate, thereby excluding inhibition of PDE3. In mice, diclofenac (3-100 mg/kg, p.o.) induced gastrointestinal bleeding (ED50 = 56 mg/kg), assessed by spectrophotometric determination of fecal hemoglobin. Treatment with diclofenac (10-100 mg/kg, p.o. t = 0 h) in the presence of the selective PDE5 inhibitor sildenafil (3-100 mg/kg, p.o. t = - 48 h to +7 h) demonstrated no protection from NSAID-induced blood loss, whereas treatment in the presence of several selective PDE4 inhibitors significantly reduced the amount of detectable hemoglobin.
In summary, one can say that NSAIDs with preferential COX-2 selectivity possess PDE4 and PDE5 inhibitory potency on isolated enzymes, an effect which was confirmed in the Langendorff heart by an increase in coronary flow. It seems that the intrinsic PDE4 - but not the intrinsic PDE5 - inhibitory component of NSAIDs with preferential COX-2 selectivity most likely contribute to the gastrointestinal safety of these drugs. Furthermore, gastrointestinal side effects of conventional NSAIDs can be atten- tuated or even prevented, if these class of compounds is applied in combination with a compound from the class of selective PDE4 inhibitors.
The invention thus relates to the combined use of a PDE4 inhibitor and a conventional NSAID in the treatment of an inflammatory disease and/or an inflammation-associated disorder while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects, such as gastric erosions and ulcer, which are frequently associated with the use of conventional NSAIDs.
"Combined use" in the context of the invention means the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of the conventional NSAID on the one hand and of the PDE4 inhibitor on the other hand.
Simultaneous administration includes - aside from the simultaneous uptake of two separate dosage forms containing the conventional NSAID in the one and the PDE4 inhibitor in the other dosage form - pharmaceutical compositions containing both active ingredients in one single dosage form (fixed unit dose form).
Simultaneous administration also includes the oral administration of the PDE4 inhibitor during i. v. administration (e. g. by infusion) of the conventional NSAID, or shortly after intramuscular or intravenous injection of the conventional NSAID.
Sequential administration in the context of the invention means the administration of the conventional NSAID on the one hand and of the PDE4 inhibitor on the other hand in separate dosage forms within less than 12 hours, more preferably within less than one hour, most preferably within 5 minutes or less, including regimen where the PDE4 inhibitor is administered first.
Separate administration within the context of the invention means the administration of the conventional NSAID on the one hand and of the PDE4 inhibitor on the other hand in separate dosage forms within 12 hours or more, including administration regimen where the PDE4 inhibitor is administered first, and including regimen where e. g. the conventional NSAID is administered twice or three times daily and the PDE4 inhibitor is administered once or twice daily.
Sequential and separate administration also include the oral administration of the PDE4 inhibitor and the i. v. administration (e. g. by infusion) or intramuscular or intravenous injection of the conventional NSAID.
"Combined use" in the context of the invention also includes a pharmaceutical product comprising both the conventional NSAID and the PDE4 inhibitor as discrete separate dosage forms, in separate containers or e. g. in blisters containing both types of drugs in discrete solid dosage units, preferably in a form in which the dosage units which have to be taken together or which have to be taken within one day are grouped together in a manner which is convenient for the patient. Said pharmaceutical product itself or as a part of a kit may contain instructions for the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of the discrete separate dosage units, to a patient in need thereof.
By the expression "PDE4 inhibitor" is meant a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, which selectively inhibits the type 4 phosphodiesterase when compared to other known types of phosphodiesterase, e.g. type 1, 2, 3, 5 etc., whereby the compound has a lower IC50 (more potent) for the type 4 phosphodiesterase, such as where the IC50 for PDE4 inhibition is about factor 100 lower compared to ICS0 for inhibition of other known type of phosphodiesterase, e.g. type 1 , 2, 3, 5 etc.
By "conventional NSAID" is meant a cyclooxygenase inhibitor which inhibits both, the constitutive form (COX-1) and the inducible form (COX-2) of the cyclooxygenase and does not contain any of the following residues: -S(0)2NH2, -S(0)2CH3, -S(0)2N(H)C(0)CH2CH3 and -N(H)-S(0)2-CH3.

In a still further aspect the present invention provides a method of minimizing gastrointestinal side effects frequently associated with the use of conventional NSAIDs comprising the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of i) a first amount of a conventional NSAID or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative therof; and ii) a second amount of a PDE4 inhibitor or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, wherein the sum of the first and the second amount is a therapeutically effective amount, to a patient in need thereof.
Said methods also include a pharmaceutical product or kit containing a conventional NSAID and a written description which discloses that said conventional NSAID can be administered together with a PDE4 inhibitor (a) for the treatment of an inflammatory disease and/or an inflammation associated disorder while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects or (b) for the attenuation of gastrointestinal side effects frequently associated with the use of conventional NSAIDs. Likewise, said methods include a pharmaceutical product or kit containing a PDE4 inhibitor and a written description which discloses that said PDE4 inhibitor can be administered together with a conventional NSAID (a) for the treatment of an inflammatory disease and/or an inflammation associated disorder while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects or (b) for the attenuation of gastrointestinal side effects frequently associated with the use of conventional NSAIDs.
"Inflammatory diseases" which may be mentioned in particular are arthritis, including but not limited to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and juvenile arthritis; gastrointestinal conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome and ulcera- tive colitis; asthma, bronchitis and skin related disorders such as psoriasis, eczema, burns and dermatitis. "Inflammation associated disorders" which may be mentioned are, for example, pain, migraine, fever and headaches.
The active ingredients may, and indeed will, as part of the pharmaceutical composition, the pharmaceutical product or preparation, be used in admixture with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable auxiliaries and/or excipients.
The person skilled in the art is familiar on the basis of his/her expert knowledge with which excipients or auxiliaries are suitable for the desired pharmaceutical composition, product or preparation. In addition to solvents, gel-forming agents, tablet excipients and other active compound carriers, it is possible to use, for example, antioxidants, dispersants, emulsifiers, antifoams, flavor corrigents, preservatives, solubilizers, colorants or permeation promoters and complexing agents (e.g. cyclodextrins).
Within the meaning of the present invention, "combined use" is preferably understood as meaning the oral administration of both active ingredients. Further methods of administration, which may be mentioned are the parenteral (for example intravenous injection or infusion or intramuscular or intraarticu- lar injection) and the topical administration of the active ingredients.
For oral administration the pharmaceutical compositions or products according to the invention are preferably in the form of tablets, coated tablets, chewing tablets, lemonade tablets, dragees, capsules, caplets, suppositories, emulsions, (sterile parenteral) suspensions or solutions, the active ingredient content advantageously being between 0.1 and 95% and by appropriate choice of the excipients and the auxiliaries, it being possible to achieve a pharmaceutical administration form precisely tailored to the active ingredient(s) and/or to the desired onset of action (e.g. a sustained release form or an enteric form).
For the treatment of diseases of the arthritic type or skin related disorders, the compounds according to the invention also can be used in form of pharmaceutical compositions or products which are suitable for topical application. For the production of those pharmaceutical compositions or products, the compounds according to the invention (= active ingredients) are preferably mixed with suitable pharmaceutical excipients and further processed to give suitable pharmaceutical formulations. Suitable pharmaceutical formulations which may be mentioned in this connection are, for example, ointments, fatty ointments, creams, pastes or gels. The pharmaceutical compositions or products for topical application can preferably also be in form of a patch (e.g. as TTS).
For the above-mentioned therapeutic uses the dosages administered will, of course, vary with the first and second active ingredients employed, the mode of administration, the treatment desired and the disorder indicated. However, in general, satisfactory results will be obtained when the total daily dosage of first active ingredient(s), the PDE4 inhibitor(s), when taken oral is in the range from 1 - 2000 μg/kg of body weight. In the case of the especially preferred PDE4 inhibitor ROFLUMILAST, the daily dosage is in a range from 2 - 20 μg/kg of body weight.
The total daily dosage of the second active ingredient(s), the conventional NSAIDs also can vary within a wide range. In the case of the especially preferred NSAIDs Diclofenac the daily doses are in a range from 100 - 2000μg/kg.
Pharmacology
Investigations into the role of several NSAIDs in inhibiting the phosphodiesterase 4 and 5 in vitro (Table 1 below) showed that in partially purified or recombinant PDE4 and PDE5, NSAIDs with preferential COX-2 selectivity (for example, nimesulide [INN], CGP28238 [Research Code], L-745337 [Research Code], and the highly selective drug celecoxib [INN]) possess PDE4 and PDE5 activity in the μM range, whereas conventional NSAIDs (for example, acetylsalicylic acid, diclofenac [INN] or indo- metacin [INN]) show only minor effects:
Table 1 (IC50, μM)
ASS, acetylsalicylic acid; diclofenac, 2-[(2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino]benzeneacetic acid; indomethacin, 1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methyl-1 H-indole-3-acetic acid; nimesulide, 4'-nitro-2'-phenoxyme- thansulfonamide; CGP28238, 6-(2,4-difluorophenoxy)-5-methylsulfonylamino-1-indanone; L-745337 5-methanesulfonamido-6-(2,4-difluorophenylthio)-1-indanone); celecoxib, (4-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(tri- fluoromethyl)-1 H-pyrazol-1-yl]benzenesulfonamide.
In isolated guinea pig Langendorff hearts, celecoxib selectively increased coronary heart flow at doses consistent with its inhibitory potency on PDE4 and 5, but had no effect on left ventricular pressure and heart rate, thereby excluding inhibition of PDE3.
In mice, diclofenac (3-100 mg/kg, p.o.) induced gastrointestinal bleeding (ED50 = 56 mg/kg), assessed by spectrophotometric determination of fecal hemoglobin. Treatment with diclofenac (10-100 mg/kg, p.o. t = 0 h) in the presence of the selective PDE5 inhibitor sildenafil (3-100 mg/kg, p.o. t = - 48 h to +7 h) demonstrated no protection from NSAID-induced blood loss, whereas treatment in the presence of several selective PDE4 inhibitors significantly reduced the amount of detectable hemoglobin. Influence of PDE4 inhibition on diclofenac induced blood loss in mice
Methods
In vivo experiments
Male NMRI mice (Charles River Laboratories, Sulzfeld, Germany) weighting 23-25 g were housed in groups of 5 under standard conditions at a temperature of 22°C +/-2°C and a 12h light-dark cycle. If not otherwise stated animals had free access to tap water and standard food pellets. Diclofenac was administrated at doses from 1-100 mg/kg p.o.; rolipram, roflumliast and RP73401 were given at doses from 1-100 mg/kg p.o. Preventive treatment: Diclofenac was given at time point Oh. At time points -24, -16, Oh, +7h one of the selective PDE4 inhibitors was administered. Curative treatment: Diclofenac was given at time point Oh. At time points +1h and +7h one of the selective PDE4 inhibitors was administered. The drugs used were dissolved in 4% aqueos methyl cellulose. The animals were food reduced 24h prior diclofenac administration. For each experiment 5 animals were used for one experimental point. Following 24h administration of drugs animals were weighted and stool was collected quantitatively and homogenized as described below:
Detection of hemoglobin in feces
The modified method of Welch (Clin. Chem. 29/12, 2022-2025, 1983) was used. The amount of hemoglobin was determined by the heme catalyzed oxidation of tolidine in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Feces was homogenized in destilled water in a concentration with 1g feces/6.6ml H20 with an ultra-turrax (IKA-Werke, Germany). 500μl aliquots from two different areas of the stool were taken to minimize error due to inhomogenous distribution of blood in the feces and heated 10 min at 95°C to inactivate peroxidases and than diluted with 500μl of acetic acid/H20 (30/70 vol/vol). Hemoglobin was extracted in 2.5 ml of acetic acid/H20 (30/70 vol/vol) by the addition of 4.5 ml ethyl acetate. The sample was rigorously shacked and the supernatant was used following a centrifugation step for optical detection of hemoglobin. Tolidine was prepared freshly from a stock solution (0.4g tolidine in 10ml ethanol) by mixing equal volumes of stock solution, H20 and acetic acid and equilibrated at room temperature. 20μl of extracted supernatant was diluted to 100μl ethyl acetate in a 96er crystall plate and incubated with 50μl of the working solution. The reaction was initiated by the injection of 25μl hydrogen peroxide (6%) in a Wallac Victor spectro-photometer (Turku, Finnland). The increase of OD 690 was monitored by a kinetic analysis and expressed as ΔOD690/min. Results
Table 2 shows the % reduction of the ΔOD6go/min when a PDE4 inhibitor was administered (preventive or curative) compared to the ΔOD690/min obtained without the administration of a PDE4-inhibitor.
