Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transdermal delivery system comprising a 3,4- diarylchroman. More particularly, this invention relates to a method of enhancing the penetration of a compound selected from a 3,4-diarylchroman, through human and non-human skin and membranes.
- the invention also relates to a method for reducing or preventing bone loss, for lowering serum cholesterol, inhibiting lipid accumulation in the arterial wall, use as a vasodilator, for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia and hyperco- agulability, for the treatment of female patients suffering from endometriosis, dysfunctional bleeding, endometrial cancer, polycystic ovarian syndrome, anovulatory bleeding and breast cancer and male patients with gynecomastia, prostate hypertrophy and prostate carcinoma, for inducing endometrial thinning prior to intrauterine surgery, for treating menopausal symptoms, and atrophy of mucous membranes and skin, for the treatment of patients suffering from obe- sity and Alzheimer ' s disease.
- the invention concerns the use of a 3,4- diarylchroman for the preparation of a transdermal delivery system.
- Bone remodeling is the dynamic process whereby skeletal mass and architecture are renewed and maintained. This renewal and maintenance is a balance between bone resorp- tion and bone formation, with the osteoclast and the osteoblast considered the two key par- ticippnts in the remodeling process.
- the osteoclast initiates the remodeling cycle by resorb- ing a cavety in the bone which is subsequently refilled when the osteoblast synthesizes and deposits new bone matrix into the excavation.
- the activities of osteoclast and osteoblast are regulated by complex interactions between systemic hormones and the local production of growth factors and cytokines at active remodeling sites.
- Imbalances in bone remodeling are associated with such conditions as osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and hyperparathyrodism.
- Osteoporosis characterized by a decrease in the skeletal mass, is one of the most common diseases of postmenopausal women and is often the cause of debilitating and painful fractures of the spine, hip and wrist.
- Approximately 25% of all postmenopausal women suffer from osteoporosis, and it is generally accepted that the etiology of the disease involves the reduction of circulating estrogens ( Komm et al., Science 241:81-84, 1988)
- Gay et al. further report that the proportion of Caucasian women in the United States who are at risk for a hip fracture is 15%, or 247,000 hip fractures per year in women over the age of 45.
- 3,4-diarylchromans and their salts are useful within human and veterinary medicine for the regulation of bone metabolism. These compounds may be used, for example, in the treatment of patients suffering from bone loss due to osteoporosis (including post-menopausal osteoporosis and glucocorticoid-related osteoporosis), Paget's disease, hyperparathyroid- ism, hypercalcemia of malignancy and other conditions characterized by excessive rates of bone resorption and/or decreased rates of bone formation.
- osteoporosis including post-menopausal osteoporosis and glucocorticoid-related osteoporosis
- Paget's disease hyperparathyroid- ism
- hypercalcemia of malignancy and other conditions characterized by excessive rates of bone resorption and/or decreased rates of bone formation.
- Centchroman which is 3,4-trans-2,2-dimethyl-3-phenyl-4-[4-(2-pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)phenyl]- 7-methoxychroman, is a non-steroidal compound known to have antiestrogenic activity. It is in use in India as an oral contraceptive (see, for example. Salman et al., U.S. Patent No.
- Centchroman has also been investigated as an anti- cancer agent for treatment of advanced breast cancer (Misra et al., Int J Cancer 43 (1989), 781 - 783). Recently, centchroman as a racemate has been found as a potent cholesterol lowering pharmaceutical agent expressed by a significant decrease of the serum concentrations (S.D. Bain et aJ., J Min Bon Res 9 (1994), S 394).
- Levormeloxifene ( - ) - 3R,4R - trans- 7-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-3-phenyl-4- ⁇ 4-[2-(pyrrolidin-1- yl)ethoxy]phenyl ⁇ chromane, is a particular preferred compound from this series of 3,4- diarylchromans.

- levormeloxifene is obtained as the free base and the hydrochloride salt.
- the compounds of formula I may be administered as pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

- U.S. Pat. No. 5,280,040 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,464,862 discloses a class of 3,4-diarylchromans and their salts useful for reducing bone loss.
- the free base has a very poor solubility in water and the hydrochloride salt has some pharmaceutically undesirable properties.
- the hydrochloride salt is hygroscopic, it is quite heavy soluble in water and it forms a solid gel in aqueous suspension.
- transdermal route for delivery of drugs provides many advantages such as noninvasive drug delivery, no first pass effect, lower dose and better compliance for patients with dosing problems as to conventional dosing forms, i.e. tablets or capsules.
- Drugs can be delivered into the systemic circulation via the human skin membrane with low daily doses because first pass hepatic metabolism is avoided (Todd P.A. & Goa K.L., Drugs 40(4): p. 583-607 (1990)). This may be convenient because low-dose forms may avoid some of the side effects of higher dose oral therapy.
