Definitions
- This invention relates to substance P antagonists, in particular to 1-acylpiperidine substance P antagonists, and more specifically to new pharmaceuticals uses of such compounds.
- Substance P antagonists and their pharmaceutical use for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, inflammatory disorders, central nervous system disorders and pain are described in, for instance, WO 90/05525, WO 91/09844 and WO 91/18899.
- 1-acylpiperidines and more particularly N-benzoyl-2-benzyl-4-azanaphthoyl-amino piperidines and their activities as substance P antagonists are described in European patent EP 0532456 B and published European patent application EP 0739892 A and European patent EP 0707006 B respectively.
- the disclosures of EP 0532456 B, EP 0707006 B and EP 0739892 A are incorporated by reference in the teaching of the present application.
- WO 96/24353 (Eli Lilly) descibes a method for the treatment and prevention of a psychiatric disorder in a mammal which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of a combination of a tachykinin receptor antagonist and either a serotonin agonist or a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor.
- Chronic fatigue syndrome is listed amongst the numerous psychiatric disorders which are identified as candidates for treatment by this method.
- WO 97/38692 (Eli Lilly) relates to a series of bisindoles which have activity both as tachykinin receptor antagonists and as serotonin agonists, and describes use of these bisindoles to treat migraine, pain or nociception, allergic rhinitis, the common cold, and a variety of psychiatric disorders including chronic fatigue syndrome amongst many others.
- substance P antagonists in particular 1-acylpiperidines and especially N-benzoyl-2-benzyl-4-(azanaphthoyl-amino)piperidines, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are particularly useful for treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in the absence of serotonin agonist/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitory therapy.
- the present invention provides the use of a specific substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in the absence of serotonin agonist/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitory therapy.
- the invention provides the use of a specific substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in the absence of serotonin agonist/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitory therapy.
- the invention also provides use of a substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, devoid of substantial serotonin agonist activity, in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in the absence of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibiting activity.
- the invention provides the use of a substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, devoid of substantial serotonin agonist activity, for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome in the absence of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibiting activity.
- the invention provides the use of a specific substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as mono-therapy in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome.
- the invention provides the use of a specific substance P antagonist or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof for preparation of a medicament for use as monotherapy in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome.
- Chronic fatigue syndrome is a condition which has been variously described and diagnosed. It is sometimes categorised as a low grade viral infection, particularly caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. However, since that virus is found very widely in the population, the diagnosis is problematic.
- An alternative characterisation of chronic fatigue syndrome is a physical-psychological disorder of the depression type, characterised primarily by lack of energy and listlessness.
- Chronic fatigue disorders are a poorly defined clinical syndrome or combination of syndromes characterised by complaints of excessive fatigue and neurophysiological disturbances, often beginning after a viral infection. Attempts have been made to define diagnostic criteria for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) but until recently the diagnosis has remained based on purely subjective criteria (Holmes et al. Annals of Internal Medicine 108: 387-389 (1988); Fukuda et al. Annals of Internal Medicine 121: 953-959 (1994)). In general, the fatigue is felt to be exacerbated following physical exertion, emotional stress, and/or viral illnesses. Lightheadedness, difficulty with thinking or concentrating, sleep disturbances, diffuse joint pain and tenderness, depression and weight fluctuations are often concurrent clinical features of chronic fatigue disorders.
- CFS chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome
- the term “specific substance P antagonist” means a substance P antagonist which is substantially devoid of other activities which may be associated with non-specific substance P antagonists, such as serotonin agonist and/or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor activity.
- the term “mono-therapy” means therapy in the absence of other pharmaceutically active substances, in particular in the absence of other pharmaceutically active substances which have activity in relation to chronic fatigue syndrome. Any suitable specific substance P antagonist may be used according to the invention for treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome, for instance the substance P antagonists described in the review article by Seward and Swain (Exp. Opin. Ther. Patents (1999) 9(5) 571-582) and in the references and published patents and patent applications mentioned therein.
- Preferred substance P antagonists for use in the invention for treatment of CFS include the substance P antagonists described for use in the treatment of various diorders and conditions in published International Patent Applications Nos. WO 98/24438, WO 98/24439, WO 98/24440, WO 98/24441, WO 98/24442, WO 98/24443, WO 98/24444, WO 98/24445 and WO 98/24446.
