Definitions

  • the invention provides safe and effective methods for treating Parkinson's disease by administering a therapeutically effective amount of at least one cholinesterase inhibitor compound to a patient.
  • a preferred cholinesterase inhibitor compound is donepezil.
  • Parkinson's disease is a chronic nervous disease characterized by fine, slowly spreading tremors, rigidity, and a characteristic gait. Although the onset of Parkinson's disease may be abrupt, it generally occurs gradually. The initial symptom is often a fine tremor beginning in either a hand or a foot which may spread until it involves all of the members. The duration of Parkinson's disease is indefinite, and recovery rarely if ever occurs. Cognitive impairments and dementia may be seen in the later stages of Parkinson's disease, which is a common and significant source of morbidity.
  • Levodopa has historically been the medication of choice in treating Parkinson's disease, and there are rarely any failures with levodopa therapy in the early years of treatment. Unfortunately, this response is not sustainable. Most patients develop adverse effects after long-term usage of levodopa; in fact, in some the benefits of treatment wane as the disease progresses.
  • Several common types of central nervous system dysfunction and peripheral side effects are associated with administration of levodopa. Toxic side effects to the central nervous system include mental changes, such as confusion, agitation, hallucinosis, hallucinations, delusions, depression, mania and excessive sleeping. The symptoms may be related to activation of dopamine receptors in non-striatal regions, particularly the cortical and limbic structures.
  • the present invention describes novel methods for treating and preventing Parkinson's disease by administering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of at least one cholinesterase inhibitor compound.
  • the methods for treating and preventing Parkinson's disease include methods for treating and preventing the motor dysfunctions, cognitive impairments, and/or dementia associated with Parkinson's disease.
  • the cholinesterase inhibitor compound is preferably donepezil or a stereoisomer thereof.
  • FIG. 1 is a graph showing the mean Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score for patients receiving donepezil or placebo in weeks 1 through 10 and then alternately receiving placebo or donepezil in weeks 10 through 20.
  • MMSE Mini-Mental State Examination
  • the MMSE score difference from baseline to week 10 was 2.1 points on donepezil and 0.3 points on placebo.
  • FIG. 2 is a graph showing the CIBIC+ score for patients receiving donepezil or placebo in weeks 1 through 10 and then alternately receiving placebo or donepezil in weeks 10 through 20.
  • the mean CIBIC+ score at week 10 was 3.3 on donepezil and 4.1 on placebo.
  • FIG. 3 is a graph showing the CIBIC+ response rates for patients receiving donepezil or placebo for 10 weeks. Improvement (i.e., a CIBIC+ score of 3 or lower) was found for 5 (42%) patients on donepezil and 2 (17%) patients on placebo.
  • FIG. 4 is a graph showing the severity of parkinsonism for patients receiving donepezil or placebo for 10 weeks.
  • the baseline i.e., week 0
  • Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale UPDRS
  • the caregivers and patients did not report subjective worsening of parkinsonism on donepezil.
  • Parkinson's disease is a neurological syndrome usually resulting from deficiency of the neurotransmitter dopamine as the consequence of degenerative, vascular or inflammatory changes in the basal ganglia, and is characterized by motor dysfunctions, cognitive dysfunctions and/or dementia.
  • Muscultivos include one or more of muscle tremors, rigidity, a characteristic gait, droopy posture, and/or masklike facies.
  • the “motor dysfunctions” of Parkinson's disease may also be referred to as parkinsonism.
  • Cognitive impairment refers to an acquired deficit in one or more of memory function, problem solving, orientation and/or abstraction that impinges on a patient's ability to function independently.
  • “Dementia” refers to a global deterioration of intellectual functioning in clear consciousness, and is characterized by one or more symptoms of disorientation, impaired memory, impaired judgment, and/or impaired intellect. The symptoms of “dementia” are generally worse than, and may encompass, the symptoms of cognitive impairment.
  • Patient refers to animals, preferably mammals, more preferably humans.
  • patient includes men and women.
  • the cholinesterase inhibitors of the invention alleviate (e.g., do not change, reduce, or eliminate) at least one symptom of Parkinson's disease.
  • a successful treatment may be a treatment in which the symptoms of Parkinson's disease do not change, i.e., the symptoms neither improve nor worsen.
  • a successful treatment may be a treatment in which the symptoms of Parkinson's disease are reduced or eliminated.
  • the symptoms may be motor dysfunctions, cognitive dysfunctions, and/or dementia.
