Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone and to a compound for use in such a method.
- Patent 1,474,377 discloses the compound 4-(6'- methoxy-2'-na ⁇ hthyl)-butan-2-one and in example 5, a process by which it can be prepared.
- the compound which is referred to herein by its common name, nabumetone, is described as possessing anti-inflammatory activity and is therefore useful in the treatment of arthritis.
- nabumetone also has potential therapeutic utility as a calcium reabsorption agent.
- the present invention provides a method for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone in human or non-human animals, which method comprises administering an effective, non-toxic amount of nabumetone to human or non-human animals suffering from such a disorder.
- the present invention also provides the use of nabumetone in the manufacture of a medicament for use in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone.
- a nabumetone medicament for use in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone may be prepared by admixture of nabumetone with an appropriate carrier, which may contain a diluent, binder, filler, disintegrant, flavouring agent, colouring agent, lubricant or preservative in conventional manner.
- an appropriate carrier which may contain a diluent, binder, filler, disintegrant, flavouring agent, colouring agent, lubricant or preservative in conventional manner.
- disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone include osteoporosis, ricketts and calcium depletion in females associated with pregnancy.
- the medicament is in unit dosage form and in a form adapted for use in the medical or veterinarial fields.
- preparations may be in a pack form accompanied by written or printed instructions for use as an agent in the treatment of calcium depletion in bone.
- the suitable dosage range for nabumetone depends on the nature of the calcium depletion and on the condition of the patient. It will also depend, inter alia, upon the relation of potency to absorbability and the frequency and route of administration.
- Nabumetone may be formulated for administration by any route, and examples are oral, rectal, topical, parenteral, intravenous or intramuscular administration. Preparations may, if desired, be designed to give slow release of nabumetone.
- the medicaments may, for example, be in the form of tablets, dispersible tablets, capsules, sachets, vials, powders, granules, lozenges, reconstitutable powders, or liquid preparations, for example solutions or suspensions, or suppositories.
- the medicaments may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrrolidone; fillers, for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycerine; tabletting lubricants, for example magnesium stearate; disintegrants, for example starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycollate or microcrystalline cellulose; or pharmaceutically acceptable setting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate.
- binding agents for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrrolidone
- fillers for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycerine
- tabletting lubricants for example magnesium stearate
- disintegrants for example starch, polyvinylpyrrolidon
- Solid medicaments may be obtained by conventional methods of blending, filling, tabletting or the like. Repeated blending operations may be used to distribute nabumetone throughout those medicaments employing large quantities of fillers.
- any carrier suitable for formulating solid pharmaceutical compositions may be used, examples being magnesium stearate, starch, glucose, lactose, sucrose, rice flour and chalk. Tablets may be coated according to methods well known in normal pharmaceutical practice, in particular with an enteric coating.
- the medicament may also be in the form of an ingestible capsule, for example of gelatin containing nabumetone if desired with a carrier or other excipients.
- Medicaments for oral administration as liquids may be in the form of, for example, emulsions, syrups, or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use.
- Such liquid medicaments may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, syrup, methyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, aluminium stearate gel, hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; aqueous or non-aqueous vehicles, which include edible oils, for example almond oil, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters, for example esters of glycerine, or propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol, glycerine, water or normal saline; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid; and if desired conventional flavouring
- Nabumetone may also be administered by a non-oral route.
- the medicaments may be formulated, for example for rectal administration as a suppository. They may also be formulated for presentation in an injectable form in an aqueous or non-aqueous solution, suspension or emulsion in a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid, e.g. sterile pyrogen-free water or a parenterally acceptable oil or a mixture of liquids.
- the liquid may contain bacteriostatic agents, an i-oxidants or other preservatives, buffers or solutes to render the solution isotonic with the blood, thickening agents, suspending agents or other pharmaceutically acceptable additives.
- Such forms will be presented in unit dose form such as ampoules or disposable injection devices or in multi- dose forms such as a bottle from which the appropriate dose may be withdrawn or a solid form or concentrate which can be used to prepare an injectable formulation.
- the effective dose of nabumetone depends on the nature of the calcium depletion in the bone, the condition of the patient and on the frequency and route of administration.
- a unit dose will generally contain from 20 to 2000 mg of nabumetone and preferably will contain from 30 to 1000 mg, in particular 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 750, 800 or 1000 mg.
- the composition may be administered once or more times a day for example 2, 3 or 4 times daily, and the total daily dose for a 70 kg adult will normally be in the range 100 to 3000 mg.
- the unit dose will contain from 2 to 20 mg of nabumetone and be administered in multiples, if desired, to give the preceding daily dose.
- nabumetone compositions are in the form of 500 mg swallow tablets.
- the present invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition for use in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone which comprises an effective amount of nabumetone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- a pharmaceutical composition for use in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of disorders associated with calcium depletion in the bone which comprises an effective amount of nabumetone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- Such compositions may be prepared in the manner as hereinbefore described.
- the average reduction was 31.8%: from 25.7 mg/ml/hr. to 17.5 mg/ml/hr. (P ⁇ 0.05).
- nabumetone may be able to reduce the amount of bone resorption in patents with IH and may have a prophylactic role in hypercalciuric patients with high bone turnover who are candidates for developing osteoporosis.
