Abstract

A new therapeutic application of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-hydroxy-2,5-dihydro-3H-imidazo (2,1-a)isoindole (known as "Mazindol") of formula <IMAGE> is in the treatment of the Parkinson's disease.o

Description

SPECIFICATION Therapeutic application of mazindol The present invention provides for a new therapeutic application of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,5-dihydro-3Himidazol (2,1-a)iso-indol-5-ole (generally indicated as Mazindol), of formula I
for the treatment in the Parkinson's disease.
The Mazindol of formula lisa compound known in medical literature as being a central non-amphetaminic anoretic, presently used in the treatment of the exogenous obesity in association with dietetic restrictions. In these cases the drug is well tolerated, accompanied only by limited and slight side effects.
On the occasion of studies and experiments carried out recently by the Applicant, the compound of formula I surprisingly proved to be effective in the treatment of the Parkinson's disease. The tests were carried out on patients suffering from the Parkinson's disease, on whom the L-dopa therapy had irregular effects as well as a drop in effectiveness. The drug was experimentally administered to 16 patients over twelve months, according to the following criteria: Admission criteria: patients suffering from Parkinson's disease and subjected to L-Dopa therapy, which provoked a drop in effectiveness and the setting in of irregular effects ("on-off" effects) Exclusion criteria: the patients suffering from parkinsonisms of different nature were not subjected to the tests.
Drug-administering diagram: 30 days Placebo one week suspension 30 days Mazindol Ways of administration: Random Mazindol dosage: 2 mg Evaluation of the effects: Webster scale - 2 basal evaluations; one evaluation at the end of the first period; one evalution at the end of the one-week suspension; one evaluation at the end of the second period.
Evaluation of "on-off" effects if any;: the number and duration of the "on-off" effects was assessed and the symptoms were evaluated according to a pre-established scale.
The evaluation of the dosage-effect relation was effected over 24 months, on twelve patients suffering from initial Parkinson's disease. The patients suffering from any other Parkinson's syndrome were not subjected to the tests.
The tests were carried out as follows: Drug-administration diagram: 30 days Placebo 30 days scalar dosages of 1-2-3-4 mg Mazindol Evaluation of the effects: Webster scale: 2 basal evaluations; one evaluation at the end of placebo; one evaluation at the end of each 30 days period.
Evaluation of the appearance of side scale of the 'Centro del Sonno' of Bologna effects: Mazindol was administered in scalar dosages (which were increased each month); the increase in dosage was suspended at the appearance of even the slightest side effects. From the carried out experiments there was proved the effectiveness of the treatment on all the tested patients, without the setting in of particular or new side effects other than those already known of the compound.
