Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical combination comprising fingolimod or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and modafinil or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for use in the treatment of multiple sclerosis in human, preferably in the prevention or the treatment of fatigue symptom of multiple sclerosis disease.
  • MS Multiple Sclerosis
  • CNS central nervous system
  • Myelin provides a covering or insulation for nerves, improves the conduction of impulses along the nerves and also is important for maintaining the health of the nerves.
  • inflammation causes the myelin to disappear. So, the electrical impulses become slower.
  • the nerves themselves are damaged. Patient suffers from a range of symptoms which affect their health-related quality of life such as pain, fatigue, muscle spasticity and spasm, bladder problems and sleep disturbance.
  • Fingolimod is a sphingosine-1 -phosphate receptor modulator, which sequesters lymphocytes in lymph nodes, preventing them from contributing to an autoimmune reaction. Fingolimod is used in the treatment of the relapsing form of multiple sclerosis. May also be used in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy.
  • Fingolimod is marketed by Novartis under the brand name Gilenya® for the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
  • Gilenya® is presented as immediate-release hard gelatin capsules containing 0.56 mg of fingolimod hydrochloride as the active substance corresponding to 0.5 mg of fingolimod.
  • fingolimod 2-amino-2-[2-(4-octylphenyl)ethyl]propane-1 ,3-diol.
  • Fingolimod is shown as Formula I.
  • fingolimod derivatives are firstly disclosed in US5604229.
  • the use of fingolimod derivatives as immune depressant and preventive for autoimmune diseases is disclosed in EP0627406 (B1).
  • the use of fingolimod derivatives in the prevention or in the treatment of chronic rejection in a recipient of organ or tissue alio- or xeno-transplant is disclosed in EP0941082 (B1).
  • MS fatigue is a common symptom of people with MS. This is called “MS fatigue” and this is different from fatigue experienced by persons without MS. This also can arise from associated conditions or accumulation of disease burden. Specific causes to consider include sleep disorders, depression, disability status.
  • Modafinil is a wakefulness-promoting agent for oral administration. Modafinil is a racemic compound.
  • the chemical name of modafinil is 2-[(diphenylmethyl)sulfinyl]acetamide.
  • the molecular formula is C15H 15NO2S and the molecular weight is 273.35. It has the following structural formula as Formula II.
  • combining more than one molecule in one dosage form increases the patient’s compliance. However, while this combination increases the patients’ quality of life, combining more than one molecule in one dosage form also reduces undesired multiple sclerosis symptoms and provide effective treatment.
  • the main object of the present invention is to combine fingolimod with modafinil to eliminate multiple sclerosis symptoms and to provide effective treatment.
  • Another object of the present invention is to obtain a stable combination formulation with a synergistic effect for use in multiple sclerosis.
  • This invention also provides a pharmaceutical combination comprising an effective amount of fingolimod and effective amount of modafinil, for use in treating a human afflicted with multiple sclerosis.
  • the combination is administered simultaneously, separately or sequentially.
  • fingolimod refers to fingolimod in the form of the free base or in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, crystalline polymorph, solvates, hydrates, esters or mixture thereof.
  • modafinil refers to modafinil in the form of the free base or in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, crystalline polymorph, solvates, hydrates, esters or mixture thereof.
  • the pharmaceutical combination comprises fingolimod and modafinil.
  • the combination is used as adjunctive therapy in fatigue for multiple sclerosis treatment.
  • the combination is for use in the treatment of multiple sclerosis in human.
  • the combination is for use to prevent or treatment fatigue symptom of MS disease.
  • An embodiment of this present invention is to combine fingolimod with modafinil in a same and stable dosage form with desired dissolution profiles.
  • This invention provides a method of treating a human afflicted with multiple sclerosis comprising periodical administration of an amount of fingolimod and modafinil to the subject together, wherein these amounts described below are effective to treat a human.
  • the pharmaceutical combination comprises fingolimod is present in an amount of between 0.05 and 20 mg and modafinil is present in an amount of between 100 and 300 mg.
  • the weight ratio of fingolimod to modafinil is between 0.0001 - 2.0, preferably 0.001 -1.0 or more preferably 0.001 - 0.2.
