Definitions

  • This invention concerns a combination of a statin compound, which is known to cause a reduction in plasma levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol, and a compound which inhibits the formation of lipoprotein (a),
  • Lp(a) inhibitors are the retinoids, as described in U.S. Patent 5,489,611 incorporated herein by reference.
  • the combinations of this invention can also employ the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the respective active components.
  • statin where used in the specification and the appendant claims, is synonymous with the terms "3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A reductase inhibitor” and "HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor.” These three terms are used interchangeably throughout the specification and appendant claims. As the synonyms suggest, statins are inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-
  • Coenzyme A reductase and, as such, are effective in lowering the level of blood plasma cholesterol.
  • Statins and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are particularly useful in lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in mammals, and particularly in humans.
  • Mevastatin may be prepared according to the method disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,983,140, which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • Velostatin may be prepared according to the methods disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,448,784 and U.S.
  • Patent 4,450,171 which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of statins containing free amine groups may be readily prepared by reacting the free base form of the statin with the appropriate acid.
  • the salt is of a monobasic acid (e.g., the hydrochloride, the hydrobromide, the p-toluenesulfonate, the acetate), the hydrogen form of a dibasic acid (e.g., the hydrogen sulfate, the succinate), or the dihydrogen form of a tribasic acid (e.g., the dihydrogen phosphate, the citrate), at least one molar equivalent and usually a molar excess of the acid is employed.
  • a monobasic acid e.g., the hydrochloride, the hydrobromide, the p-toluenesulfonate, the acetate
  • the hydrogen form of a dibasic acid e.g., the hydrogen sulfate, the succinate
  • Subjects accepted for entry into this trial must satisfy certain criteria. Thus, the subject must be an adult, either male or female, aged 18 to 80 years of age in whom coronary angiography is clinically indicated. Subjects will have angiographic presence of a significant focal lesion such as 30% to 50% on subsequent evaluation by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) in a minimum of one segment (non-PTCA, non-bypassed, or non-MI vessel) that is judged not likely to require intervention over the next 3 years. It is required that the segments undergoing analysis have not been interfered with. Since percutaneous transluminal cardiac angioplasty (PTCA) interferes with segments by the insertion of a balloon catheter, non-PTCA segments are required for analysis.
  • PTCA percutaneous transluminal cardiac angioplasty
  • the free base form or other salt forms of 9-cis-retinoic acid or the free base form or other salt forms of the statin may be used in this invention. Calculation of the dosage amount for these other forms of the statin and 9-cis-retinoic acid is easily accomplished by performing a simple ratio relative to the molecular weights of the species involved. The amount of 9-cis-retinoic acid may be varied as required. Generally, a subject will start out taking 200 mg, and the amount will be titrated down to as little as 50 mg as determined by the clinical physician. The amount of the statin will similarly be titrated down from 80 mg if it is determined by the physician to be in the best interests of the subject.
  • the primary endpoint of the study is the change in the average mean segment diameter of the coronary artery tree.
  • the diameter of an arterial segment is measured at various portions along the length of that segment.
  • the average diameter of that segment is then determined.
  • the average of all segment averages is determined to arrive at the average mean segment diameter.
  • the mean segment diameter of subjects taking a statin and 9-cis-retinoic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt will decline more slowly, will be halted completely, or there will be an increase in the mean segment diameter.
  • the secondary objective of this study is that the combination of carboxyalkylether or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt and a statin reduces the rate of progression of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries as measured by the slope of the maximum intimal-medial thickness measurements averaged over 12 separate wall segments (Mean Max) as a function of time, more than does compound III or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt or a statin alone.
  • the intimal-medial thickness of subjects taking a statin and compound III or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof will increase more slowly, will cease to increase, or will decrease.
  • Each subject is evaluated for about 10 to 32 weeks. At least 10 weeks are generally required to complete the study. Sufficient subjects are used in this screen to ensure that about 200 to 800 subjects and preferably about 400 subjects are evaluated to complete the study. Subjects are screened for compliance with the entry criteria, set forth below, during a 4-week run-in phase. After the screening criteria are met, subjects are washed out from their current anti-anginal medication and stabilized on a long acting nitrate such as nitroglycerine, isosorbide-
  • This study is a double-blind, parallel-arm, randomized study to show the effectiveness of carboxyalkylether or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof and a statin given in combination in controlling both hypertension and hyperlipidemia in subjects who have mild, moderate, or severe hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
  • Subjects are male or female adults between 18 and 80 years of age having both hyperlipidemia and hypertension. The presence of hyperlipidemia is evidenced by evaluation of the LDL cholesterol level of the subject relative to certain positive risk factors. If the subject has no coronary heart disease (CHD) and has less than two positive risk factors, then the subject is considered to have hyperlipidemia, which requires drug therapy if the LDL of the subject is > 190 mg/dL. If the subject has no CHD and has two or more positive risk factors, then the subject is considered to have hyperlipidemia, which requires drug therapy if the LDL of the subject is > 160 mg/dL. If the subject has CHD, then the subject is considered to have hyperlipidemia if the LDL of the subject is
  • Positive risk factors include: (1) male over 45, (2) female over 55 wherein said female is not undergoing hormone replacement therapy (HRT), (3) family history of premature cardiovascular disease, (4) the subject is a current smoker, (5) the subject has diabetes, (6) an HDL of less than 45 mg/dL, and (7) the subject has hypertension.
  • An HDL of >60 mg/dL is considered a negative risk factor and will offset one of the above mentioned positive risk factors.
  • BP diastolic blood pressure
  • Subjects are screened for compliance with the entry criteria set forth above. After all screening criteria are met, subjects are washed out from their current antihypertensive and lipid lowering medication and are placed on the NCEP ATP II Step 1 diet.
  • NCEP ATP II adult treatment panel, 2nd revision
  • Heart Study which is an ongoing prospective study of adult men and women showing that certain risk factors can be used to predict the development of coronary heart disease.
  • the age, sex, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, smoking habit, presence or absence of carbohydrate intolerance, presence or absence of left ventricular hypertrophy, serum cholesterol, and HDL of more than one standard deviation above the norm for the Framingham Population are all evaluated in determining whether a patient is at risk for adverse cardiac event.
  • the values for the risk factors are inserted into the Framingham Risk Equation and calculated to determine whether a subject is at risk for a future cardiovascular event. Subjects are screened for compliance with the entry criteria set forth above.
  • statins are administered in the following dosage amounts:
