The compound may also be of value in the treatment of a condition of the above conditions.
We have now surprisingly found that the compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof are also useful in the treatment of overactive bladder .
Overactive bladder is a term for a syndrome that encompasses urinary frequency, with or without urge incontinence, generally but not necessarily combined with pollacisuria and nocturia. Overactive bladder is also characterised by involuntary detrusor contractions which are either triggered by provocation or occur spontaneously. If the detrusor hyperactivity observed is based on neurological causes (e. g. Parkinson's disease, apoplexy, some forms of multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury or the cross section of the bone marrow) it is known as neurogenic detrusor hyperactivity. If no clear cause can be detected this is known as idiopathic detrusor hyperactivity. In addition, detrusor hyperactivity may be associated with anatomical changes in the lower urinary tract, for example, in patients with bladder outlet obstruction (an enlargement of the prostate gland in males).
Accordingly, the invention provides a method of treatment of overactive bladder which comprises administering to a human or animal subject an effective amount of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof.
It will be appreciated that the compound may be used prophylactically and references in this specification to treatment include prophylactic treatment as well as the alleviation of acute symptoms. Accordingly, the invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition which comprises the compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof for the treatment or prevention of overactive bladder.
In a yet further aspect, the invention provides the use of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of overactive bladder.
In a yet further aspect, the invention provides the use of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, for the treatment of overactive bladder.
Pharmaceutical compositions for use in accordance with the present invention may be formulated in conventional manner using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.
Thus, the compound and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may be formulated for oral, buccal, parenteral, topical (including ophthalmic and nasal), depot or rectal administration or in a form suitable for administration by inhalation or insufflation (either through the mouth or nose).
For oral administration, the pharmaceutical compositions may take the form of, for example, tablets or capsules prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients such as binding agents (e.g. pregelatinised maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose); fillers (e.g. lactose, microcrystalline cellulose or calcium hydrogen phosphate); lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc or silica); disintegrants (e.g. potato starch or sodium starch glycolate); or wetting agents (e.g. sodium lauryl sulphate). The tablets may be coated by methods well known in the art. Liquid preparations for oral administration may take the form of, for example, solutions, syrups or suspensions, or they may be presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may be prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as suspending agents (e.g. sorbitol syrup, cellulose derivatives or hydrogenated edible fats); emulsifying agents (e.g. lecithin or acacia); non-aqueous vehicles (e.g. almond oil, oily esters, ethyl alcohol or fractionated vegetable oils); and preservatives (e.g. methyl or propyl-p-hydroxybenzoates or sorbic acid). The preparations may also contain buffer salts, flavouring, colouring and sweetening agents as appropriate.
Preparations for oral administration may be suitably formulated to give controlled release of the active compound. For buccal administration the composition may take the form of tablets or formulated in conventional manner.
The compound of the invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may be formulated for parenteral administration by bolus injection or continuous infusion.
Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form e.g. in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilising and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile pyrogen-free water, before use.
The compound of the invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may be formulated for topical administration in the form of ointments, creams, gels, lotions, pessaries, aerosols or drops (e.g. eye, ear or nose drops). Ointments and creams may, for example, be formulated with an aqueous or oily base with the addition of suitable thickening and/or gelling agents. Ointments for administration to the eye may be manufactured in a sterile manner using sterilised components.
Lotions may be formulated with an aqueous or oily base and will in general also contain one or more emulsifying agents, stabilising agents, dispersing agents, suspending agents, thickening agents, or colouring agents. Drops may be formulated with an aqueous or nonaqueous base also comprising one or more dispersing agents, stabilising agents, solubilising agents or suspending agents. They may also contain a preservative.
The compound of the invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may also be formulated in rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, e.g. containing conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.
The compound of the invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may also be formulated as depot preparations. Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation (for example subcutaneously or intramuscularly) or by intramuscular injection. Thus, for example, the compounds of the invention may be formulated with suitable polymeric or hydrophobic materials (for example as an emulsion in an acceptable oil) or ion exchange resins, or as sparingly soluble derivatives, for example, as a sparingly soluble salt.
For intranasal administration, the compound of the invention and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates may be formulated as solutions for administration via a suitable metered or unitary dose device or alternatively as a powder mix with a suitable carrier for administration using a suitable delivery device. A proposed dose of the compound of the invention is 1 to about 10OOmg per day. It will be appreciated that it may be necessary to make routine variations to the dosage, depending on the age and condition of the patient and the precise dosage will be ultimately at the discretion of the attendant physician or veterinarian. The dosage will also depend on the route of administration and the particular compound selected.
Thus, for parenteral administration a daily dose will typically be in the range of 1 to about 200 mg, preferably 40 to 150 mg per day. For oral administration a daily dose will typically be within the range 1 to 300 mg e.g 1 to 100 mg.
The compound and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof may be prepared by the process described in international patent application WO 02/ 32867 which is incorporated herein by reference.
Pharmacological Activity Micturition parameters in the conscious guinea pig and acetic acid-evoked bladder instability in the anaesthetized guinea pig and cat
The effects of the compound as methansulphonate salt ( hereinafter Compound A) on the time to void (void interval) were evaluated in normal female guinea pigs and under conditions of bladder irritation with acetic acid in the anaesthetized female guinea pig and cat. In the conscious normal guinea pig Compound A significantly increased void interval by 63.6 ± 27.7 % (n = 5) and 48.7 ± 18.4 % (n = 7) following 1 and 3 mg/kg intraduodenal (i.d.) administration, respectively. In acetic acid-evoked bladder irritation in the anaesthetized guinea pig, characterized by an increase in the frequency of voiding, Compound A significantly increased void interval by 42.7 ± 4.3 % (n = 3), 137 ± 38.4 % (n = 4) and 93.2 ± 19.4 % (n = 4), following 1 , 3 and 10 mg/kg i.d. administration, respectively. In the anaesthetized cat, Compound A significantly attenuated bladder irritation evoked by acetic acid (3 mg/kg Lv.; n = 4).
