Definitions

  • the present invention relates to 8- ⁇ -ergoline derived compounds especially to lisuride and terguride and salts, enantiomers, mixtures of enantiomers, diastereomers, mixtures of diastereomers, hydrates, solvates and racemates and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts of these compounds for use in pharmaceutical compositions together with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients and/or diluents for the treatment and prophylaxis of brain disorders wherein the brain disorders are characterised by increased cranial pressure or epileptic seizures or neural edema.
  • Said ergoline derived compounds are useful for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of the above aspects of brain disorders.
  • this invention relates especially to methods and compositions for treatment and/or prophylaxis of the above aspects of brain disorders by administering to the patient lisuride or one of its derivatives.
  • Traumatic brain injury is one brain disorder which is characterised by increased cranial pressure or epileptic seizures or neural edema. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) refers to brain damage after trauma by external mechanical forces. Clinically, TBI presents itself heterogeneously including diffuse axonal damage, focal contusions, space occupying epidural and subdural hematomas, and open or closed head injuries.
  • Secondary brain injury following traumatic brain injury is a result of direct and delayed mechanisms.
  • a primary insult to the brain initiates metabolic and inflammatory processes which exacerbate the primary traumatic injury to neurons, leading to secondary brain injury.
  • Such secondary brain injury can include neural edema, neuroinflammation, and neurodegeneration, traumatic brain injury associated ischemia, the production of reactive oxygen species and epileptic seizures.
  • Acute traumatic brain injury is clinically graded as mild, moderate and severe based on the level of consciousness or the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score after resuscitation. Severe TBI is characterized by coma or a GCS score lower than 9.
  • the acute phase of TBI begins immediately after the primary brain injury and has a duration of up to four weeks. Most of the mortality happens during the acute phase of TBI either as a direct consequence of the primary lesions or as a consequence of the secondary brain injuries that reinforce the primary lesion Proportions of mortality increase with age: 21 % of patients younger than 35 years and 52% of patients older than 55 years do not survive a severe case of TBI. If a patient has survived the first four weeks after a severe acute TBI incident, the prognosis for survival improves considerably.
  • ICP intracranial pressure
  • Lisuride is an ergot derived molecule, chemically related to dihydroergotamine, but it is not useful to treat acute migraine as are dihydroergotamine and sumatriptan. Lisuride is in fact useful to prevent the onset of migraine and would therefore not be expected to substitute for sumatriptan or dihydroergotamine in the volume targeted therapy based on what is known about its pharmacology. In addition lisuride is not associated with severe side effects and complications like dihydroergotamine.
  • 8- ⁇ -ergoline derived compounds have not been investigated for the treatment of the acute phase of traumatic brain injury in humans, where maintenance of haemodynamic stability and of ICP is of utmost importance to secure satisfactory cerebral perfusion.
  • Lisuride or other 8- ⁇ -ergolines are also useful for the therapy and prevention of epileptic seizures, which commonly occur during acute brain injury or in the rehabilitation phase after brain injury.
  • Epileptic seizures occur in patients with idiopathic and symptomatic epilepsy. Symptomatic epilepsy also occurs as a result of an injury to the brain. Idiopathic seizures can also occur spontaneously without a known or suspected cause. In an acute mouse model of convulsions induced by hyperbaric oxygen, the dopamine agonists lisuride, apomorphine, (-)3-PPP and Quinpirole, but curiously also the dopamine antagonist haloperidol reduced the latency of convulsions, but did not prevent or inhibit the occurrence of convulsions (Criborn, CO et al. (1988) Aviat. Space
  • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is based on the principle of saturating hemoglobin with oxygen. It is not obvious for those skilled in the art how an animal model based on this principle should be predictive for a physiological situation like brain injury that is characterized by insufficient brain perfusion with oxygen.
  • Apomorphine a dopamine agonist
  • traumatic brain injury refers also to epileptic seizures and symptomatic epilepsy, indications which are implicitly disclosed when referring to the term TBI.
  • Brain injury occurs when perfusion of the whole brain or a part of the brain with oxygenated blood is reduced below a minimum threshold. This can happen for example by direct lack of oxygen to the body as in CO poisoning, as a result of an external mechanical impact to the brain as in accidents and as a result of occlusion or rupture of blood vessels either intrinsically such as in ischemic stroke or hemorrhagic stroke or extrinsically as a consequence of a surgical procedure like brain or heart surgery.
  • the therapy of the brain injury incident happens in two distinct phases.
  • an acute phase the patient is normally admitted to an intensive care unit to treat the life- threatening symptoms. If the patient has survived this initial phase which is characterized by high mortality, treatment continues in a rehabilitation phase either in a specialized clinical setting or in an outpatient setting.
  • aspects of this invention are related to the use in the acute phase and/or the rehabilitation phase.
  • Object of the invention is to provide compounds useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of brain disorders wherein the brain disorder is characterized by increased cranial pressure, epileptic seizures, or neural edema
  • the object of the invention is solved by the teaching of the independent claims. Further advantageous features, aspects and details of the invention are evident from the dependent claims, the description, and the examples of the present application.
  • the 8- ⁇ -ergoline derivatives of the invention and especially lisuride, terguride and proterguride are useful for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of brain disorders wherein the brain disorder is characterized by increased cranial pressure, epileptic seizures or neural edema.
  • the ergoline derived compounds of the invention reduce neural edema, intracranial pressure and frequency and magnitude of epileptic seizures in acute TBI or the rehabilitation phase after a brain injury event.
  • Seizures are common during the acute phase of brain injury and can occur unpredictably in the rehabilitation phase. Seizures during acute brain injury are typically treated with traditional anticonvulsants (phenytoin, carbamazepine, sodium valproate, ethosuximide, primidone, clonazepam, phenobarbital).
  • traditional anticonvulsants phenytoin, carbamazepine, sodium valproate, ethosuximide, primidone, clonazepam, phenobarbital.
  • Traumatic Injury (2000) does not recommend the use of phenytoine, carbamazepine, phenobarbital or valproate for preventing late posttraumatic seizures, occurring seven days after brain injury.
  • the present invention addresses the shortcomings of current therapies. Lisuride is not known to cause cognitive impairment and is safe when used over many years. The treatment with lisuride can therefore be applied in the rehabilitation phase when current anticonvulsants are not indicated and no cognitive changes are induced in patients.
  • the present invention relates to methods and compositions for treatment and prophylaxis of epileptic seizures which occur in the rehabilitation phase after a brain injury event by administering to the patient a pharmacologically effective amount of lisuride or one of its derivatives.
  • a specific brain injury event disclosed herein where lisuride was effective in preventing symptomatic seizures is stroke.
  • Symptomatic seizures are common in the rehabilitation phase after stroke, traumatic brain injury and other types of brain injury.
  • the characteristics of seizures that occur in the rehabilitation phase after stroke can not be distinguished medically or pharmacologically from the seizures that occur after traumatic brain injury. Therefore the use of lisuride and related compounds is claimed not only for the prophylaxis of seizures that occur in the rehabilitation phase after stroke but more generally for seizures that occur in the rehabilitation phase after a brain injury.
  • the pharmacological amount that was used was 150 ⁇ g lisuride hydrogen maleate per day, equivalent to about 2 ⁇ g/kg lisuride hydrogen maleate per day.

  • lisuride is a molecule with an established safety profile and patients have been under high dose parenteral therapy with lisuride for more than 10 years. Preferred is therefore a longterm chronic treatment of symptomatic epilepsy resulting from brain injury.
