Definitions

  • CBs Calcium channel blockers
  • ACEIs angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors
  • a representative of the class of CCBs is amiodipine, while a representative of the class of ACEIs is benazepril or benazeprilat.
  • Amiodipine is 2-[(2-aminoethoxy)methyl]-4-(2-chIorophenyl)-1 ,4-dihydro-6-methyl-3,5- pyridinedicarboxylic acid 3-ethyl 5-methyl ester. It is sold commercially in the form of its besylate salt under the trademark NORVASC® as an antihypertensive. Amiodipine may be administered in free or pharmaceutically aceptable salt form. Where amiodipine dosages are set forth herein, it is understood that the amounts are the amounts corresponding to amiodipine free base equivalents, irrespective of the salt form used, unless otherwise indicated.
  • a chronic anti-hypertensive therapy with amiodipine is often associated with side effects such as dose-limiting peripheral edema, especially ankle edema.
  • the amiodipine induced ankle edema is believed to be due to a preferential dilation of the precapillary arterioles in the leg and a resultant efflux of fluid into the interstitial space.
  • the upper limit of mono-therapy with amiodipine is 10 mg per day, and lower doses are preferred for chronic treatments. Higher dosage formulations than 10 mg per day are not approved by regulatory authorities or marketed, as in many susceptible individuals, side effects, such as those mentioned above, may limit efficacy and may ultimately result in discontinuation of the therapy.
  • a "high dose” or a “higher dose” of amiodipine refers to daily dosage amounts greater than 5 mgs amiodipine, preferably from 6-40 mgs, more preferably 7.5-20 mgs, for example, 7.5, 10, 15, or 20 mgs, more preferably at least 10 mgs, e.g., 10, 12.5, 15, or 20 mgs, most preferably 10 or 20 mgs.
  • dosages of 10-60mgs, preferably 20 to 40 mgs, for example 20, 30, or 40 mgs,, especially 40 mgs, are preferred.
  • Benazepril is [S-(R * ,R * )]-3-[[1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-3-phenylpropyl]amino]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2- oxo-1 H-1-benazepine-1 -acetic acid. It is sold commercially in the form of the hydrochloride salt under the trademarks LOTENSIN® or CIBACEN® as an antihypertensive. Benazeprilat is the diacid form of benazepril formed by cleavage of the ester group, and is the active metabolite of benazepril. Benazepril and benazeprilat may be administered in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form.
  • ACEIs may only be moderately effective in non-Caucasian populations, especially in toe African Americans, and in patients where the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) is already suppressed.
  • a "high dose” or a “higher dose” of benazepril” refers to dosage amounts corresponding to greater than 20 mg benazepril hydrochloride, preferably from 21 to 160 mgs, preferably 40 to 80 mgs, for example, 40 mg or 80 mgs. Dosage amounts of this drug may be also be given every other day, in combination with amiodipine on the same day or on alternate days on which the amiodipine is administered. In both cases, the amount of benazepril would be preferably kept constant.
  • amiodipine and benazepril Fixed dose combinations of amiodipine and benazepril are being marketed under the trade name Lotrel®. Corresponding amounts of the active ingredients are 2.5 mg of amiodipine and 10 mg of benazepril, 5 mg of amiodipine and 10 mg of benazepril, and 5 mg of amiodipine and 20 mg of benazepril, the amounts of amiodipine corresponding to the free base and the amounts of benazepril corresponding to the hydrochloride. As used herein, the term “Lotrel® combination" refers to these dosage combinations.
  • the therapeutic combination of amiodipine and benazepril contemplated herein includes administration of these compounds such that the combination of amiodipine and benzapril may be administered every other day.
  • benazepril alone may be administered on the alternate days.
  • patients are provided with dosage forms comprising (i) combinations of amiodipine with benazepril and (ii) dosage forms comprising benazepril as active ingredient or placebo, in which case the two dosage forms may be provided in a kit of parts as described below.
  • packages will comprise daily dosage amounts of appropriate active ingredients in a dispenser, blister pack or with other suitable packaging and instructions to ensure that the appropriate tablets are taken on the alternating days and otherwise ensure proper compliance with a prescribed dosage schedule.
  • a high dose amiodipine may be alternated with lower dosage amounts of this drug on a daily basis in combination with daily administration of benazepril.
  • the daily dosage level of the benazepril in this regime would remain constant.
  • the high dose combination of amiodipine and benazepril or benazeprilate, respectively, as disclosed herein provides some surprising beneficial effects with an overall lack of adverse effects, selected from (but are not limited to) e.g. (i) a greater blood pressure control (either or both of systolic and diastolic blood pressure), especially in patients who do not achieve blood pressure levels defined as normal or optimal according to the WHO guidelines of the management of hypertension; (ii) reduction, prevention, attenuation or delay of side effects associated with amiodipine, such as the dose- limiting formation of peripheral edema, e.g.
  • ankle edema (iii) reduction of afterload; (iv) end- organ protection, especially in case of the treatment of angina; and (v) reduction, prevention, attenuation or delay of risks or incidences of morbidity and mortality, especially of morbidity and mortality associated with atherosclerosis.
  • a preferred patient population for applying the combination according to the present invention is selected from (i) those patients who do not achieve blood pressure levels defined as normal or optimal according to the WHO guidelines of the management of hypertension of 1999 (cf. J Hypertens 1999, 17:151-183); (ii) those patients with angina who require greater control of angina or blood pressure or both; (iii) those patients with heart failure, especially congestive heart failure, who require greater control of blood pressure, and (iv) patients suffering from pulmonary disease or pulmonary hypertension.
  • moderate hypertension being characterized by a DBP of approximately 100 mm Hg according to said WHO definitions
  • Corresponding clinical trials can be carried out e.g. in a double-blind, randomized, placebo- controlled, forced-titration, parallel-group trial.
  • patients are randomized to receive either a Lotrel ® combination (e.g. 5 mg of amiodipine corresponding of the free base and 20 mg of benazepril corresponding to the hydrochloride) or a combination according to the present invention (e.g. 10 mg of amiodipine corresponding of the free base and 20 mg of benazepril corresponding to the free base) for 6 weeks; patients receiving placebo remain on placebo for the entire 8 weeks.
  • the efficacy e.g. the change of blood pressure from baseline to the endpoint, is to be determined as well as the safety, e.g. the incidence of potential side effects.
  • the combination according to the present invention can be used for the treatment (acute and especially chronic treatment) or prevention or delay of progression of a condition selected from the group consisting of hypertension (whether of the malignant, essential, reno-vascular, diabetic, isolated systolic, or other secondary type), heart failure, such as congestive heart failure, angina (whether stable or unstable), myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic cardiac myopathy, renal insufficiency, peripheral vascular disease, left ventricular dysfunction, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, cognitive dysfunction (such as Alzheimer's, etc.), blood pressure-related cerebrovasular disease, stroke, pulmonary disease or pulmonary hypertension and headache.
