Definitions

  • Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia also called Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy
  • Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy is a progressive condition which is characterized by a nodular enlargement of prostatic tissue resulting in obstruction of the urethra. This results in increased frequency of urination, nocturia, a poor urine stream and hesitancy or delay in starting the urine flow.
  • Chronic consequences of BPH can include hypertrophy of bladder smooth muscle, a decompensated bladder and an increased incidence of urinary tract infection.
  • the specific biochemical, histological and pharmacological properties of the prostate adenoma leading to the bladder outlet obstruction are not yet known. However, the development of BPH is considered to be an inescapable phenomenon for the aging male population.
  • BPH is observed in approximately 70% of males over the age of 70.
  • the method of choice for treating BPH is surgery (Lepor, H., Urol. Clinics North Amer., 17, 651 (1990)). Over 400,000 prostatectomies are performed annually (data from 1986).
  • a medicinal alternative to surgery is clearly very desirable.
  • the limitations of surgery for treating BPH include the morbidity rate of an operative procedure in elderly men, persistence or recurrence of obstructive and irritative symptoms, as well as the significant cost of surgery.
  • ⁇ -Adrenergic receptors are specific neuroreceptor proteins located in the peripheral and central nervous systems on tissues throughout the body. These receptors are important switches for controlling many physiological functions and, thus, represent important targets for drug development.
  • ⁇ -adrenergic drugs have been developed over the past 40 years. Examples include clonidine, phenoxybenzamine and prazosin (treatment of hypertension), naphazoline (nasal decongestant), and apraclonidine (treating glaucoma).
  • ⁇ -Adrenergic drugs can be broken down into two distinct classes: agonists (clonidine and naphazoline are agonists), which mimic the receptor activation properties of the endogenous neurotransmitter norepinephrine, and antagonists (phenoxybenzamine and prazosin are antagonists), which act to block the effects of norepinephrine.
  • This invention relates to uses for dihydropyridine derivatives previously reported in Flockerzi, D., et. al., US Patent 4,707,486, issued November 17, 1987, and Zimmerman, P., et.al., PCT International Patent Applic- ation WO 91/09846, published July 11, 1991, including methods of treatment of BPH.
  • This invention also relates to novel dihydropyridine derivatives.
  • This invention further relates to potent and selective alpha 1C antagonists without significant calcium channel activity.
