This confirms that the withdrawal symptoms are suppressed by the ORL1 component. This results in a significant advantage if these substances are used in the treatment of withdrawal symptoms, since the occurrence of withdrawal symptoms is one of the most important side effects of this treatment and often leads to non-compliance.
  • the ORL1/ ⁇ -affinity should be 0.3 or greater. It is preferred if the ORL1/ ⁇ -affinity ratio is ⁇ 1, particularly preferably ⁇ 1.7.

  • Orally or percutaneously usable preparation forms can provide for the delayed release of the compounds according to the invention.

This shows the importance of the ORL1 component as regards the suitability of a substance for substitution therapy within the group of compounds described in US 2006/004034 A1 and US 2005/066183 A1.
  • the compounds according to the invention show significantly reduced cardiovascular side effects compared to methadone and LAAM.

  • HERG special potassium channel
  • Both methadone and LAAM exhibit interactions with the HERG channel (Jiesheng et al., Eur. J. Pharmacol. 2003, 458, 25-29; Katchman et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 2002, 303, 688-694).

The first three applications were made in increasing dosages (dosage scheme), the further applications being at the dosage of the third application.
  • the withdrawal symptoms were triggered with 30 mg/kg naloxone (i.p.) two hours after the last substance application. Immediately following this the animals were placed individually in transparent observation cages (height 40 cm, diameter 15 cm) and the jumping reactions were counted over 15 minutes in 5-minute periods in each case. Morphine was administered in a dosage as comparison/standard.
  • the withdrawal symptoms were quantified by counting the number of jumps over 0 to 10 minutes after application of naloxone. The number of animals per group exhibiting more than 10 jumps/10 minutes was determined and recorded as “% positive animals”. The average jumping frequency in the group was also calculated. Twelve animals were used per group.
