Abstract
The present invention is directed towards a pharmaceutical composition useful for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, asthma and related disorders.

Description
~OMPOSITiON AND METHOD FOR TREATING ALLERGIC
DISEASES
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to compositions and methods for treating allergic rhinitis and other respiratory diseases. It specifically discloses compositions which comprise combinations of antagonists of neurokinin receptors and antagonists of histamine receptors, and methods for treating the above-noted diseases with such compositions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Neurokinin receptors such as the NK, and the NK2 receptors are found in the central nervous system, the circulatory system, and the peripheral tissues of mammals, and are involved in a variety of biological processes. Antagonists of the neurokinin receptors are, therefore, expected to be useful in the treatment or prevention of various mammalian diseases such as, for example, pulmonary disorders such as asthma, cough, bronchospasm, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and airway hyperactivity; skin disorders and itch, for example, atopic dermatitis, and cutaneous wheat and flare; neurogenic inflammatory diseases such as, arthritis, migraine, nociception; CNS diseases such as anxiety, emesis, Parkinson's disease, movement disorders and psychosis; convulsive disorders, renal disorders, urinary incontinence, ocular inflammation"
inflammatory pain, and eating disorders such as food intake inhibition;
allergic rhinitis, neurodegenerative disorders, psoriasis, Huntington's disease, depression and various disorders such as Crohn's disease. NK, receptors have been reported to be involved in microvascular leakage and mucus secretion, and NK2 receptors have been associated with smooth muscle contraction, making NK, and NK2 receptor antagonists especially useful in the treatment and prevention of asthma. NK, and NK2 receptor antagonists have been reported such as, for example, in U.S. patents 5,798,359; 5,795,894; 5,789,422; 5,783,579; 5,719,156; 5,696,267;
5,691,362; 5,688,960; 5,654,316; and in "Recent Advances in Neurokinin Receptor Antagonists", by C. J. Ohnmacht Jr., et al, Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry, A. M. Doherty Ed., 33, 71-80 (1998).
SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) and related disorders is well known. A discussion is provided by, for example, R. Aslanian et al, Exp.Opin.Ther.Patents, 7~~., 201-207 (1997) as well as in references cited therein.
The discovery of the H3 receptor is a fairly recent phenomenon. The H3 receptor is most abundantly distributed in the CNS, and in lesser amounts in peripheral tissues. The H3 receptor is considered an important general neuroregulatory mechanism for various physiological processes, not only in the CNS but in peripheral tissues as well. A discussion of the H3 receptor and antagonists therefor can be found in J. G. Phillips et al, Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry, J. Bristol, ed., ~, 31-40 (1998).
Compounds that antagonize both the NK, and H, receptors are disclosed, for example, in WO 96-06094 (Marion Merrell Dow, 1996). Dual antagonists of the H, and H3 receptors are discussed, for example, in pending U.S. patent application, Serial No. 08/909,319, filed August 14, 1997. Pending U.S. patent application, Serial No. 60/068,638, filed December 23, 1997, discloses compositions comprising leukotriene antagonists and H, receptors.
It would be highly desirable to enhance the efficacy of the neurokinin antagonists to improve their overall efficacy.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The afore-mentioned objective and other objectives and desires are addressed by the present invention which, in one embodiment, provides a composition for treating and preventing allergic rhinitis and other respiratory diseases such asthma, cough, wheezing and the like. The inventive composition comprises: (i) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one neurokinin antagonist; (ii) a therapeutically effective amount of at least one H3 antagonist and (iii) a therapeutically effective amount of at feast one H, antagonist. One or more of the antagonists may be substituted by a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative such as salt, ester, and the like, if so desired. Optionally, the composition may additionally contain a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a decongestant (such as, for example, pseudoephedrine), a cough suppressant (such as, for example, dexrtomethorphan), expectorant (such as, for example, guaifenesin), SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) analgesics (such as, for example, aspirin, ibuprofen and acetaminophen) or mixtures thereof.
Generally, the amount of the neurokinin antagonist content in the inventive composition is about 1-1,000 milligrams, preferably about 10-500 milligrams, and typically about 50-200 milligrams. The amount of the H3 antagonist is generally about 1-1,000 milligrams, preferably about 1-500 milligrams, and typically about 1-50 milligrams. The amount of the H, antagonist is generally about 1-200 milligrams, preferably about 1-100 milligrams, and typically about 2-10 milligrams.
The invention further provides a method for treating asthma and allergic disorders, sneezing, itching runny nose, nasal congestion, redness of the eye, tearing, itching of the ears or palate, sinusitis, and coughs associated with postnasal drip symptoms in a mammalian organism in need of such treatment comprising administering a pharmaceutical composition as described above.
DETAILED DESrRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In one embodiment, the present invention discloses pharmaceutical compositions that are useful in treating and preventing allergic rhinitis, asthma and related disorders. The composition comprises, in combination, a therapeutically effective amount of at least one neurokinin antagonist, a therapeutically effective amount of at least one H3 antagonist and a therapeutically effective amount of at least one H, antagonist. One or more of the antagonists may be substituted by a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative such as salt (such as, for example, hydrochloride), ester, and the like.
Several neurokinin antagonists that are currently known are useful in the practice of the present invention. Non-limiting examples of such useful neurokinin antagonists include, for example, those belonging to the chemical class of oximes, hydrazones, piperidines, piperazines, aryl alkyl amines, hydrazones, nitroalkanes, amides, isoxazolines, quinolines, isoquinofines, azanorbornanes, naphthyridines, benzodiazepines and the like. Many are disclosed in the U.S. patents cited earlier in this patent application. Preferred NK antagonists are those disclosed in the above-noted U.S. patents 5,798,359; 5,795,894; 5,789,422; 5,783,579; 5,719,156;
