Abstract
This invention relates to the use bazedoxifene (1-[4-(2-azepan- 1-yl-ethoxy) -benzyl]-2- (4-hydroxy -phenyl)-3-methyl- 1H-indol -5-ol) in the treatment or inhibition of osteoporosis and osteopenia related to aromatase inhibitor therapy.
Description
TREATMENT OF OSTEOPOROSIS RELATED TO THERAPY WITH AROMATASE INHIBITOR
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to the use of bazedoxifene (1- [4- (2-azepan-1-yl-ethoxy) -benzyl] -2- (4-hydroxy-phenyl) -3-methyl-1 H-indole-5 -ol) in the treatment or inhibition of osteoporosis and osteopenia related to therapy with aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase inhibitors, such as anostrazole and letrozole, are frequently used for the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer and for the long-term prevention of breast cancer after treatment with tamoxifen. Through their mechanism of action, these drugs induce or amplify the estrogen deficiency that develops in post-menopausal women. Estrogen deficiency induced by aromatase inhibitors is necessary to fight estrogen-dependent breast cancer, but it induces side effects in other tissues, notably bone. Aromatase inhibitors increase bone resorption, and ultimately induce osteopenia and osteoporosis. This has been demonstrated in clinical studies with an increase in biochemical markers of bone resorption, decrease in bone mineral density as measured by double X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and an increased incidence of aromatase inhibitor-related fractures. Since aromatase inhibitors are prescribed on a long-term basis, for several years, treatment to prevent osteopenia and osteoporosis is necessary. Bazedoxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that shows an estrogen-selective receptor agonist activity in the skeleton and lipid metabolism, although it does not stimulate the uterine and breast tissues. In preclinical studies, bazedoxifene demonstrates improved compressive bone strength and a histomorphometric profile superior to that of raloxifene. This is supported by the clinical results of phase II, which reveal that bazedoxifene reduces the biochemical markers of bone resorption. These data show that bazedoxifene can potentially demonstrate: a) bone protection at a lower dose than the currently commercially available SERM, b) no uterine agonist effect, c) a low potential to induce vasomotor discharges, and d) an improvement in the lipid profile in serum. In addition, the data also show that bazedoxifene inhibits estradiol-stimulated proliferation of breast cancer cells, which suggests that bazedoxifene may also act like other SERMs that are capable of reducing the risk of developing breast cancer.

In such embodiments, bazedoxifene is provided in subtherapeutically effective amounts. As used in accordance with this invention, the term "bazedoxifene" means bazedoxifene (1 - [4- (2-azepan-1-yl-ethoxy) -benzyl] -2- (4-hydroxy-phenyl) -3-methyl -1H-indol-5-ol, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug thereof As used in accordance with this invention, the terms "treatment" or "treating" means to cure, ameliorate, or reverse the progress of a disease or disorder, or improve or reverse one or more symptoms or side effects of said disease or disorder. As used in accordance with this invention, the term "provide" with respect to providing the combination of the aromatase inhibitor-bazedoxifene, means directly administering the combination, or administering a prodrug, derivative or analog of one or both of the components of the invention. combination that will form an effective amount of the combination within the body, and with respect to bazedoxifene, means directly administering bazedoxifene, or administering a prodrug, derivative or analogue of bazedoxifene that will form an effective amount in the body. As used in accordance with this invention, the term "high-risk woman" or "a high-risk woman" means a woman of at least 35 years with a predicted risk of 5 years of breast cancer >1.67% as calculated by Gail Model [The Lancet, 355: 18 (2000)].
As used in accordance with this invention, the term "subtherapeutically" means below the dose levels normally used to treat a disease, ie, a dose less than the amount required for a therapeutic effect. When used for the combination therapy of bazedoxifene and an aromatase inhibitor, it may refer to a synergistic effect between the compounds. Aromatase is an enzyme that converts androgens into estrone. Estrone can subsequently be converted to estradiol, which has been linked to increased growth or proliferation of positive estrogen receptor carcinoma. As used in accordance with this invention, the term "aromatase inhibitor" means compounds or substances that inhibit the activity of the aromatase enzyme. Thus, the goal of using aromatase inhibitors in chemotherapy is typically to reduce circulating estradiol levels, to ultimately inhibit the growth of neoplasms that are estrogen or estrogen receptor positive. There are two types of aromatase inhibitors: steroidal (type I) and non-steroidal (type II) inhibitors. Examples of steroidal aromatase inhibitors include exemestane, formestane, atamestane, and the like. Examples of non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors include fadrozole, letrozole, vorozole, anastrozole and the like. The preparation of bazedoxifene and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts is described in the patent of E.U.A. 5,998,402 which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. When administered for the treatment or inhibition of a particular disease state or disorder, it is understood that the effective dose may vary depending on, for example, whether bazedoxifene is used with or without an aromatase inhibitor, the particular aromatase inhibitor used. , if one is used, the mode of administration, the condition to be treated, and the severity thereof, as well as several physical factors related to the individuals to be treated. The effective administration of bazedoxifene of this invention can be in any variety of dosage regimens such as single dose, multiple dose, combination dose and dosage forms of delayed release and in time. Bazedoxifene acetate has been evaluated in clinical trials using doses of 10, 20 and 40 mg / day. Based on the results of these tests, it is anticipated that doses between about 5 and about 80 mg / day of bazedoxifene will provide an effective amount within the methods of the invention. It is expected that these projected daily doses will vary with the route of administration. The selection of the appropriate administration and dosage forms for an individual patient will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Such determinations are routine for one skilled in the art (see, for example Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine (1998), edited by Anthony Fauci et al., 14th edition, published by McGraw Hill). In some embodiments, a combination of bazedoxifene and an aromatase inhibitor are administered according to the invention wherein the aromatase inhibitor is letrozole, and wherein both are provided orally. In such embodiments, the initial oral dose of bazedoxifene may be from about 5 to about 80 mg / day (on the days it is provided) and the initial oral dose of letrozole may be from about 1 to about 10 mg daily (in the days it is provided).

Aromatase inhibitors specifically named in this description are commercially available or can be made from methods known in the literature. This invention is not limited to the use of the specific aromatase inhibitors named in this; the preparation of other aromatase inhibitors will be apparent to one skilled in the art based on the literature. As used in this invention, the combination regimen may occur simultaneously or may occur in a spaced regime, the bazedoxifene being given at a different time to the aromatase inhibitor. This time difference can vary from several minutes, hours, days, weeks or more between the administration of the two agents. Therefore, the term "combination" does not necessarily mean administered at the same time or as a unit dose, but rather that each of the components is administered during a desired treatment period. The agents can be administered by the same routes or different routes. For example, one component can be administered orally, while the other parenterally and these combinations can be administered daily, weekly, or even once a month. Oral formulations containing the active compounds of this invention may comprise any oral form conventionally used, including tablets, capsules, buccal forms, lozenges, troches, and suspensions or oral liquid solutions. The capsules may contain mixtures of the compound (s) with inert fillers and / or diluents such as pharmaceutically acceptable starches (eg, corn, potato or tapioca starch), sugars, artificial sweetening agents, powdered celluloses, as crystalline and microcrystalline cellulose, flours, tins, gums, et cetera.

The oral formulation may also consist of administering the active ingredient in water or a fruit juice, which contains appropriate solubilizers or emulsifiers as needed.
In some cases it may be convenient to administer the compounds directly to the airways in the form of an aerosol. The compounds can also be administered parenterally or intraperitoneally. Solutions or suspensions of these active compounds as a free base or a pharmacologically acceptable salt can be prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. The dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols and mixtures thereof in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms. The pharmaceutical forms suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that there is an easy injection capacity. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or a dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol and liquid polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. For the purposes of this disclosure, transdermal administrations are understood to include all administrations across the body surface and the inner linings of body passages that include epithelial and mucosal tissues. Such administrations can be carried out using the compounds of the present invention, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, in lotions, creams, foams, patches, suspensions, solutions, and suppositories (rectal and vaginal). Transdermal administration can be achieved through the use of a transdermal patch containing the active compound and a carrier that is inert to the active compound, is non-toxic to the skin, and allows delivery of the agent for systemic absorption into the bloodstream by means of of the skin. The carrier can take any number of forms such as creams and ointments, pastes, gels and occlusive devices. The creams and ointments can be a viscous liquid or semi-solid emulsions or be of the oil-in-water or water-in-oil type. Pastes comprised of absorbent powders dispersed in petroleum or hydrophilic petroleum containing the active ingredient may also be suitable. A variety of occlusive devices can be used to release the active ingredient into the bloodstream such as a semi-permeable membrane that covers a reservoir containing the active ingredient with or without a carrier, or a matrix containing the active ingredient. Other occlusive devices are known in the literature. The suppository formulations can be made from traditional materials, including cocoa butter, with or without the addition of waxes to alter the melting point of the suppository and glycerin. Water-soluble suppository bases, such as polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights, can also be used.

EXAMPLES
EXAMPLE 1
Bazedoxifene acetate-rapid dissolution formulation
* The amount in the formula is adjusted for real potency of bazedoxifene as a free base. The corresponding adjustment made with lactose.
The formulations given above in Table 1 are
prepared by incorporating a portion of the excipients in the granulation and
a portion is also added in the final combination steps as
dry powders. A dissolution profile generated for the formulations
showed almost 90% release of the drug in 30 minutes. Thus, the unique combination of disintegrants and soluble diluents plus the incorporation of granulated and powdered solids into the composition ensures faster release of the drug. The wet granulation of the formulations as described in Table 1 can be carried out by mixing the drug and ascorbic acid with a portion of lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch and sodium starch glycolate. Sodium lauryl sulfate is dissolved in water and used to granulate the powder mixture in a high shear mixer. The granulation is dried in a fluidized bed dryer at a humidity of 2-3%. The particular size of the dry granulation is controlled by passing through a laminator equipped with knife blades and using a 20- or 30- mesh screen. The remaining silicon dioxide and lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch, and sodium starch glycolate are mixed with the laminated granulation in a drum type mixer. The final mixture is prepared by adding magnesium stearate to the drum-type mixer and mixing. The compression is carried out on a rotary tablet press using a machining of appropriate size. The coating is done in conventional coating trays and by applying the coating suspension to achieve a suitable film coating.

EXAMPLE 4
Bazedoxifene in the treatment of osteopenia or osteoporosis
Mice, rats or monkeys can be treated daily with a
aromatase inhibitor and combination of bazedoxifene. The administration of both components of the combination can be subcutaneous, intraperitoneal or oral during periods ranging from 2 weeks to 1 year. Bone mineral density can be measured by standard methods, eg, double-energy X-ray absorptiometry (Wickman, S. et al., J. Clin. Endocrin. &Metab. (88 (8): 3785-3793 (2003)). Vanderschueren, D. et al., Endocrin, 138 (8): 2310-2307 (1997).) Uterine weights can be measured as
is described by Schieweck, K. et al in J. Steroid Biochem. Mol Biol. 44 (4-6): 633-6 (1993). A decrease in uterine weight is a positive control,
ensuring aromatase functional activity. An improvement in the loss of
Bone mass after co-treatment with bazedoxifene can demonstrate
that bazedoxifene is effective in treating bone loss by maintaining bone mass without stimulating the uterus or breast tissues. Those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and / or modifications may be made to aspects or embodiments of the invention and that such changes and / or modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of this invention. Therefore, it is intended that the appended claims cover such equivalent variations that fall within the spirit and scope of this invention.
