Abstract

Pharmaceutical compositions contg. (a) a calcium antagonist and (b) 7-(N-(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl)-(S)-alanyl)-1,4-dithia-7 -azaspiro-(4,4)nonane-8(S)-carboxyl acid (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts are new.

Description

This invention relates to novel pharmaceutical compositions effective against hypertension and congestive heart failure and to their production and use.
The present invention provide® a pharmaceutical composition containing as active agents. a) a Calcium-Antagonist and b ) 7- < H~ |i 1 < S } -B thoxycar bony 1-3-Pheny Ipropy 1 ]—( S ) -Alanyl )-1,4Dithia~7-Azaspiro~|[4,4]Non8ne-8-(S)-Carboxyllc Acid and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts. - 2 Case 100-6972 The calcium antagonists comprise a class of physiologically active substances characterised by their calcium antagonistic or calcium channel blocking activity. A wide range of such compounds are now known and have found wide therapeutic application, in particular in the treatment of cardiovascular disturbances or disease, for example in the treatment of coronary insufficiency, disturbance in cerebral circulation, hypertension and in the treatment of other disturbances in peripheral circulation. Typically,the calcium antagonists are employed as vasodilators» e.g. in the treatment of hypertension.
Component b) is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-) inhibitor. Little has been published on its pharmacological and biopharmaceutical properties. ACE inhibitors are known compounds that influence the transformation of angiotensin I in angiotensin II and that are useful in the lowering of elevated blood pressure when this is du® to the action of angiotension II. ACB-blocking compounds when administered alone have to be used in relatively high amounts that may lead to unwanted side effects.
The pharmaceutical composition of the invention and also co-administration of component a) and component b) possess surprisingly and unexpectedly advantageous pharmaceutical properties with an especially favourable or improved pharmacological/therapeutic profile. In particular it has been found that co-administration of a component a) and a component b) as aforesaid in conjunction results in unexpected enhancement of antihypertensive activity and an surprisingly potent activity against congestive heart failure.
Th® component a) induce# increase in central venous pressure and consequently the increase in cardiac output is blunted in component b) pretreated animals. The increase of central venous - 3 Case 100-6972 pressure in the absence of cardiac depression (cardiac contractility vas accurately assessed with a strain gauge sewn onto the myocardium) indicates an increased venous return caused by arteriolar dilatation. Th® blunted effect of component a) hence indicates an increased venous compliance after ACE inhibition.
Preferred calcium antagonists for use in the compositions of the invention are those of the dihydropyridine class, e.g. of the formula 1 A vherein A is a residue of formula (a), (b) or (c) - A Cass 100-6972 (a) (b) (c) R^ is hydrogen, (C, g)alkyl, hydroxy(C^ -)alkyl, (Cgg)alkoxyalkyl, (Cg_g)alkenyl, (Cg_g)alkinyl, (C3Pcycloalkyl or (C4 g)cycloalkylalkyl, or (C- 0)phenylalkyl or (Co .^phenylalkenyl, wherein ths phenyl ring is unsubstituted or mono-, di- or tri-substituted by halogen, hydroxy, (C^ 4)alkyl or (C^ 4)alkoxy, and Rg are each independently hydrogen» (Cj -)alkyl» pheaylalkyl, (Cg_pcycloalkyl or (C4_8)cycloalkylalkyl, whereby, when A is a residue b, one ot R? and Rg may also be (C^ 4)hydroxyalkyl or cyano, Rg and R^ ar® independently -CM, -COOR-, -CORg, -S(0)nRo or -COO-B-M Χθ R1V n is 0.1 or 2, Rg is hydrogen, halogen, (C1-A)alkyl, (·,_*)alkoxy, (C1->A)alkyl thio, (C., ^alkylsulfonyl, trifluoromethyl» nitro, hydroxy, azido, amino, (Cl4)alkylamino. dii(C1Aalkyljamino, (C15) - 5 Case 100-6972 alkanoylamino, (C^pcarbalkoxy, arainocarbonyl, trifluoromethoxy,cyano, sulfamoyl.

The calcium antagonists used according to the invention are generally described together with their calcium antagonistic and i.a. antihypertensive activity in earlier published patents. In these Patents may also be mentioned that salt forms of the calcium-antagonists of formula I may be used instead of the free bases. Further it may be contemplated that when the substituents in the 2 and 6 positions and/or 3 and 5 positions of th© 1.4- dihydropyridinyl moiety are different fhe calcium antagonists may exist in racemic form or in idividual enentioaer forms.
Particularly interesting calcium-antagonists of formula I or of formula la are 4-(2,l,3-bensoxadiasol-4-yl)-l,4-dihydro-2,6dimethyl-pyrldine-3,5-dicarboxylic aeid diethyl ester, hereinafter referred to as compound Ko 1;4-(23?3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)1.4- dihydro~2,6-dimethyl-3-methoxycarbonyl-pyridine-5carboxylic acid isopropyl ester, hereinafter referred to as compound Ko 2.4-(2,1,3-benzoxathiadiazol-4-yl)-2.6-dimathyl1.4- dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester, hereinafter referred to as compound Ko 3 and (+)-(8)-4(2,1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)-1,4-dihydro-5-methoxycarbonyl2,6-diraethyl-3-pyridine carboxylic acid-(10-|4-(diphenyImethyl)- 17 Case 100-6972 piperazin-l-yl]decylJester referred to as compound No 4; especially interesting are compounds No 2 and No 4. 7-(N-[1(S)-E thoxycarbony1-3-Phenylpropy1]-(S)Alanyl)-1,4Di thia-7-Azaspiro[4.4]Nonane-8-(S)-Carbo3tylie Acid has the alternative chemical name [8S-[7[R«)]s8R^]]-7-[2-[[l(Ethoxycarbonyl)-3-phenylpropyl]amino]-l-oxopropyl]-l?4-dithia-7-a zaspiro(4.4]nonane-8-carboxylic acid. It is also identified by SCHERING as SCO-33844 and has th® generic name SPIRAPRIL. This compound is described in Example 3 of th® US-Patent No 4.470,972. In this US-Patent it is also stated that the compound has antihypertensive activity. Pharmaceutical acceptable salt forms may be used. The hydrate may be used. In this US-Patent different salt forms are described that can be used instead of the free base e.g. the hydrochloride as described in Example 4 of this patent or the hemimaleate as described in Example 5 of this patent. The preferred form is the monohydrochloride monohydrate.
The co-administration of a calcium antagonist and component b) exhibits potent anti-hypertensive activity and activity against congestive heart failure as indicated in pharmacological experiments.
Post example vhen a calcium antagonist especially a compound of formula I and a component b) are co-administered to animals, the natriuretic and diuretic activity of the calcium antagonists especially of the compounds of formula I may be surprisingly retained. Co-administering a calcium antagonist especially a compound of formula I with th® above ACE-inhibitor thus reduces the need for further diuretics and/or beta-blockers. This is shown in the hydrated rat test (method of Fluckiger et al·, Schweiz.
Med. tfochenschrift 93, No 35 (1963J 1232-7) described in the followings - 18 Case 100-6972 Groups of 12 rats are used. Component a) at a diuresis inducing doses e.g. at 0.3 mg/kg p.o. to 3 mg/kg p.o. is investigated alone or in combination with component b) at a dosage of 3 mg/kg s.c.
The compounds are administered at the same time. Urine is collected for 3 hours and its volume and sodium excretion measured, This effect is confirmed in sodium-depleted rats. Rats are given furosemide (50 mg/kg/day) with drinking water for two days. Groups of 6 animals are used. The calcium antagonist is administered at diuresis dosages e.g. of 0.3 to 3 mg/kg p.o and component b) at dosages of 3 mg/kg s.c. The compounds are administered at the same time. Urine is collected for 3 hours and its volume and sodium excretion measured. Similar values as in the hydrated rat test are obtained.
Xt has thus been unexpectedly found that the diuretic and natriuretic activity is generally maintained .
This is surprising and makes the combinations of the invention particularly well-suited in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure and reduces the need for diuretics.
The importance of this effect is highlighted by the increasing concerns in informed circles about the metabolic consequences of diuretics administration over extended periods. The antihypertensive effect of the co-administering a calcium antagonist and component b), is further supplemented by the renal effect.
Both components a) and b) may be - as discussed above - in the free base or where appropriate In salt. e.g. in acid addition salt form. - 19 Case 100-6972 The new composition may be prepared by a process comprising formulating a calcium antagonist and component b) in a state of purity sufficient for pharmaceutical acceptability. Conventional pharmaceutical excipient including carrier and diluents, may also be formulated therewith.
The compositions of the invention are therefore indicated for use in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure.
The calcium antagonist may be administered at e.g. one third to 100 percent of the normal dose for treating e.g. hypertension or congestive heart failure. An indicated oral daily dosage of compounds of formula X is from about 0.2 mg to about 350 mg, particularly from about 1 to 70 rag, conveniently administered in divided doses 2 to 4 times a day in unit dosage form containing from about 0.05 mg to about 175 mg e.g. to 20 mg of the compounds, or in sustained release form. The prefered compound is compound Ko. 2. An indicated dose is from about 2.0 to about 10 mg twice or once a day p.o.
An indicated preferred weight ratio of a calcium antagonist to the component b) calculated on the free base moiety thereof, may be from about 50:1 to about 1:10, particularly from about 10:1 to about 1:5, preferably from about 5:1 to about 1:3. Component b) may be administered at e.g. one third to 100 percent of the normal dose for treating hypertension or congestive heart failure. Contemplated dosage forms include 3 rag, 6 mg, 12 mg and 24 mg.
Thus for compound Ko 2 and the component b) preferred ratio is from about 50:1 to about 1:5, especially about e.g. 5:1 to 1.1 such as 1:1, 4:1, 3:1 or 2:1. - 20 Conveniently, components a) and b) are administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition in association with a pharmaceutical carrier or diluent. Sueh compositions nay be formulated in conventional sanner so as to be. for example, a solution such as an injectable solution or suspension, or preferably a, solid form sueh as a tablet or capsule. If desired one or both of the components may be in sustained release form, e.g. in the case ox compound No. and 2 as described in GB 218 1 053 A or 216 0 100 A.
