Definitions

  • the application relates generally to the use of NK-l receptor antagonists.
  • the application relates the use of the NK- 1 antagonist, tradipitant in motion sickness.
  • Motion sickness is a disorder defined by a constellation of symptoms that can result from real or perceived sickness-inducing motion. Such motion may include, e.g., motion involving the head of a subject that can produce one or more symptoms characteristic of motion sickness.
  • the sickness-inducing motion that gives rise to motion sickness may commonly include riding in any form of transportation such as, e.g., automobiles, buses, trains, other ground or rail transportation, boats under power, ferries, cruise ships, sailboats, personal water craft, canoes, kayaks, row boats, airplanes and helicopters, amusement rides, and certain gymnastic maneuvers such as somersaults.
  • the symptoms of motion sickness typically can include, but are not limited to, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, fullness, cold sweats, sweating, pallor, disorientation, and anorexia.
  • Motion sickness has been reported to affect up to 30% of the general population under ordinary travel conditions that include sea, air, and land travel.
  • the prevalence of motion sickness in one epidemiological study during bus travel found 28% of passengers reporting feeling ill while 13% reported experiencing nausea.
  • motion sickness is described as arising due to a mismatch between the perceptions of motion, or lack thereof, by the visual, vestibular, and somatosensory systems. A discrepancy between actual body position and perceived body position is believed to trigger the maladaptive response of motion sickness.
  • Motion sickness is one of the most prevalent episodic disorders in the world, and its prevalence has dramatically increased with world population mobility. Despite the increasing prevalence of the disorder, the treatments available today, which are primarily antihistamines and anticholinergics, were first discovered in the 1940’ s.
  • NKs neurokinins
  • SP substance P
  • NKA neurokinin -A
  • NKB neurokinin-B
  • SP the most abundant NK, preferentially binds to the neurokinin type-l (NK-l) receptor and is involved in the regulation of many physiological processes.
  • NK-l receptors have been mapped in the central nervous system and were found to have a broad distribution in the brain, including the mid-brain, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, and limbic system. Neurokinin receptors are also widely distributed in the gut, the bronchial tree, and the vascular system.
  • NK-l receptor has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of motion sickness.
  • Maropitant another neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist, is approved for the prevention of vomiting due to motion sickness in dogs and cats.
  • a crossover study showed that the therapy reduced the occurrence of vomiting in over 75% of dogs as compared to placebo.
  • This data supports the exploration of the effects of NK-l antagonists on motion sickness in humans, though maropitant has a different molecular composition and pharmacokinetics from other NK-l antagonists.
  • Another NK1 -receptor antagonist, aprepitant is approved for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in adults, and for use with other medications in children and adults to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by certain anti-cancer (chemotherapy) medicines.

Crystalline Forms IV and V of tradipitant are disclosed in US Pat.
  • tradipitant produces a long-lasting blockade of brain NK-1 receptors. Although the distinct pathways of nausea and vomiting are largely undetermined, a definitive role of SP acting at NK-1 receptors in the nucleus tractus solitarus has been confirmed. Previous clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of NK-1 antagonism in the prevention of chemotherapy induced and post operative nausea and vomiting (CINV and PONV).

No emesis occurs in the remaining four (4) dogs at any dose of tradipitant or aprepitant. These dogs have an average of four (4) emetic episodes with apomorphine alone.
