The invention provides pharmaceutical compositions, combinations, and kits comprising cinnamide compounds, and methods for treating dementia using cinnamide compounds.
Cholinesterase inhibitors have conventionally been used to treat dementia, such as Alzheimer's Disease and Senile Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type. In particular, donepezil hydrochloride that acts as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor increases acetylcholine in the brain and is used extensively as a drug for treating Alzheimer's senile dementia. Donepezil is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,895,841. Other drugs including N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor antagonists are also used. Nonetheless, novel drugs and treatment methods are needed.
Memantine hydrochloride (NAMENDA®, Forest Pharmaceuticals, Inc.; AXURA®, Merz Pharmaceuticals), which is an NMDA receptor antagonist, is an amantadine derivative and is known to protect nerve cells and improves the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Recently developed as a drug for treating moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease, memantine hydrochloride is provided in a liquid form or as film-coated tablets.
1,2-dihydropyridine compounds are known as α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) receptor antagonists and are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,949,571. Methods for treating diseases and administering these compounds in conjunction with a cholinesterase inhibitor are described in WO 2006/107859.
Cinnamide compounds are known as agents for inhibiting the production of amyloid beta 40 and amyloid beta 42 from amyloid precursor proteins. Cinnamide compounds are effective for treating neurodegenerative diseases caused by amyloid beta, such as Alzheimer's disease and Down's syndrome. Cinnamide compounds are described, for example in US Publication No. 2006/0004013 and PCT Publication No. WO 2006/046575.

These and other aspects of the invention are described in more detail herein.
“Patient” refers to animals, preferably mammals, more preferably humans. The term “patient” includes men and women; and includes adults, children and neonates.
“Active ingredient” refers to and includes compounds useful for treating dementia, delaying the onset of dementia, or the prophylaxis of dementia. The active ingredients may have mechanisms of action that are known or unknown, and the active ingredients may have one or more mechanisms of action. The active ingredient may have an asymmetric carbon depending on the type of substituent and may have a stereoisomer (e.g., a geometric isomer, an enantiomer, a diastereomer or the like). The active ingredient or a stereoisomer thereof may form a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a stereoisomer thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a stereoisomer thereof may be an anhydride, and may form a solvate. The active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a stereoisomer thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a stereoisomer thereof or a solvate thereof may be a crystal or an amorphous. Crystal polymorph may exist in the active ingredient, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a stereoisomer thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a stereoisomer thereof or a solvate thereof, although not limited thereto and any form of crystal may exist alone or in combination, which are within the scope of the present invention. Exemplary active ingredients include cinnamide compounds and the second-line compounds described herein.
“Treatment” and “treating” refer to the acquisition of a desired pharmacological effect and/or physiologic effect. These effects are prophylactic in teens of completely or partially preventing a disease and/or symptom(s), and therapeutic in terms of partially or completely curing a disease and/or an adverse event caused by a disease. “Treatment” and “treating” include any treatment of a disease in a patient including, for example: (a) to prevent a disease or symptom(s) in a patient who is suspected of being predisposed to the disease or symptom(s) but not yet diagnosed to be so; (b) to inhibit a symptom(s) of a disease, i.e., to inhibit or delay the progression of the symptom(s); and (c) to alleviate a symptom(s) of a disease, i.e., to reverse or eliminate the symptom(s) of the disease; or to reverse the progress of the symptom(s).
“Administered separately” with reference to the administration of two or more active ingredients to treat and/or prevent and/or delay the onset of the diseases described herein includes, for example, the sequential administration of the active ingredients in any order or the simultaneous administration of the active ingredients. Simultaneous administration of the active ingredients means that the active ingredients are administered to the patient at substantially the same time or at exactly the same time, depending on the mode of administration. The sequential administration of the active ingredients may occur in any order and may occur with any amount of time elapsing between administration of the active ingredients. Sequential administration may be based on factors that would influence which of the active ingredients should be administered first and which should be administered second, and how much time should elapse between administration of the active ingredients. For example, when two or more active ingredients are administered separately and sequentially, factors that effect when the active ingredients are administered to the patient include, for example, (a) the time(s) that provides the best efficacy for the active ingredient being administered, (b) the time(s) that provides the fewest side effects for the active ingredient being administered, (c) the dosage of the active ingredient, (d) the route of administration of the active ingredient, (e) the disease being treated, (f) the patient being treated, (g) the in vivo relationship of the active ingredients being administered, and other such factors known in the art. The time intervals for sequential administration are generally chosen so that the effect on the disease being treated in the combined use of the active ingredients is greater than additive when compared to the effect which would be obtained by use of only one of the active ingredients.
“Combination” refers to two or more active ingredients being administered separately as distinct pharmaceutical formulations (e.g., a first pharmaceutical formulation comprising a cinnamide compound and a second pharmaceutical formulation comprising a second-line active ingredient). The pharmaceutical formulations can have the same or different modes of administration.
“Monotherapy” is a therapy which uses only one active ingredient for treatment and/or prophylaxis and/or delaying the onset of a disease.
“Combination therapy” is a therapy where two or more active ingredients are administered separately or are administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment and/or prophylaxis and/or delayed onset of a disease.
“Therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of the active ingredient that is necessary for the treatment and/or prophylaxis and/or delayed onset of a disease. When two or more active ingredients are administered as a pharmaceutical composition or for combination therapy, the term “therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of active ingredients that are necessary for treatment and/or prophylaxis and/or delayed onset of a disease and includes, for example: (a) a therapeutically effective amount of a first active ingredient and a therapeutically effective amount of a second active ingredient (i.e., the amount of each active ingredient that would be used for monotherapy for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease is used for the pharmaceutical composition or combination therapy); (b) a therapeutically effective amount of a first active ingredient and a sub-therapeutic amount of a second active ingredient, which in combination effectively provide for treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease (e.g., the sub-therapeutic amount of the second active ingredient can be used in a pharmaceutical composition or combination therapy to achieve a result that would be equal to or greater than the result that the second active ingredient would achieve if it was used for monotherapy); (c) a sub-therapeutic amount of a first active ingredient and a therapeutically effective amount of a second active ingredient, which in combination effectively provide for treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease (e.g., the sub-therapeutic amount of the first active ingredient can be used in a pharmaceutical composition or combination therapy to achieve a result that would be equal to or greater than the result that the first active ingredient would achieve if it was used for monotherapy); and (d) a sub-therapeutic amount of a first active ingredient and a sub-therapeutic amount of a second active ingredient, which In combination therapy provide for treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disease or disorder (e.g., the sub-therapeutic amount of the first active ingredient can be used in a pharmaceutical composition or combination therapy to achieve a result that would be equal to or greater than the result that the first active ingredient would achieve if it was used for monotherapy; and the sub-therapeutic amount of the second active ingredient can be used in pharmaceutical composition or combination therapy to achieve a result that would be equal to or greater than the result that the second active ingredient would achieve if it was used for monotherapy).
“Kits” can include a combination of (i) a first pharmaceutical composition or formulation comprising the cinnamide compound; (ii) one or more second-line active ingredients; (iii) instructions for using the pharmaceutical compositions or formulations for treating or preventing or delaying the onset of the disease; and (iv) optionally other materials to administer the pharmaceutical compositions or formulations (e.g., syringes, diluents, medical gloves, hand sanitizers, and the like); to monitor drug levels in the body; to support patient compliance with medication dosing; or to monitor the status of the disease. The kit can supply enough medication and materials for days, weeks or months. In another embodiment, “kits” can include (i) pharmaceutical compositions or formulations comprising both the cinnamide compound and one or more second-line active ingredients; (ii) instructions for using the pharmaceutical compositions or formulations for treating or preventing or delaying the onset of the disease; and (iii) optionally other materials to administer the pharmaceutical compositions or formulations (e.g., syringes, diluents, medical gloves, hand sanitizers, and the like); to monitor drug levels in the body; to support patient compliance with medication dosing; or to monitor the status of the disease. The kit can supply enough medication and materials for days, weeks or months.
“Solvate” is well known in the art. The solvate is preferably a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate. The pharmaceutically acceptable solvate may be either a hydrate or a nonhydrate, but preferably a hydrate. The solvent such as water, alcohol (e.g., methanol, ethanol, n-propanol), dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or the like may be used.
“Hydrate” refers to an active ingredient or compound containing a molecule of water of crystallization. The molecule of water of crystallization can be an integer of 1 or more, such as 1 to 10; or can be any fraction greater than 0 or a fraction of an integer from 1 to 10. For example, the hydrate may be represented as (active ingredient).¼H2O; (active ingredient).½H2O; (active ingredient).¼H2O; (active ingredient).2H2O; (active ingredient).5½H2O; (active ingredient).6H2O; and the like.
“Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” are well known in the art and include those of inorganic acids, such as hydrochloride, sulfate, hydrobromide and phosphate; and those of organic acids, such as formate, acetate, trifluoroacetate, methanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate and toluenesulfonate. When certain substituents are selected, the active ingredients can form, for example, alkali metal salts, such as sodium or potassium salts; alkaline earth metal salts, such as calcium or magnesium salts; organic amine salts, such as a salt with trimethylamine, triethylamine, pyridine, picoline, dicyclohexylamine or N,N′-dibenzylethylenediamine. One skilled in the art will recognize that the active ingredients can be made in the form of any other pharmaceutically acceptable salt. One skilled in the art will also recognize that any active ingredient described herein can be in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt.
“Dementia” refers to a deterioration of intellectual functioning, and is characterized by one or more symptoms of cognitive impairments, disorientation, impaired memory, impaired judgment, impaired intellect, and the like. “Dementia” may also include behavioral disturbances. Exemplary behavioral disturbances include sexual disinhibition, changes in activity, changes in interpersonal relationships, physical aggressiveness, physical non-aggressiveness (e.g., wandering), verbal aggressiveness, and verbal non-aggressiveness (e.g., repetitive vocalization). With respect to dementia, the methods of the invention may be used to treat, prevent, or delay the onset of (i) intellectual functioning associated with dementia; (ii) behavioral disturbances associated with dementia; or (iii) intellectual functioning and behavioral disturbances associated with dementia. In one embodiment, the invention provides methods that are used to treat, prevent, or delay the onset of intellectual functioning associated with dementia. The cause(s) of dementia may be known or unknown.
“Mild cognitive impairments” are a transition, stage between the cognitive changes of normal aging and the more serious problems caused by dementia. While mild cognitive impairments can affect many areas of cognition—language, attention, reasoning, judgment, reading and writing—most research has focused on its effects on memory. The disorder can be divided into two broad subtypes. Amnestic mild cognitive impairments significantly affect memory, while nonamnestic mild cognitive impairments do not. Other functions, such as language and attention span, may be impaired in either subtype.
Exemplary causes of dementia and/or mild cognitive impairments include neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Pick's disease, Lewy body disease, vascular disease (e.g., cerebrovascular disease), HIV/AIDS, epilepsy, brain tumors, brain lesions, multiple sclerosis, Down's syndrome, Rett's syndrome, progressive supranuclear palsy, frontal lobe syndrome, schizophrenia, traumatic brain injuries (e.g., closed head injuries), post coronary artery by-pass graft surgery, electroconvulsive shock therapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, radiation exposure, encephalitis, meningitis, fetal alcohol syndrome, Korsakoff's syndrome, anoxic brain injury, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, diabetes, menopause, strokes, high cholesterol levels, or spinal cord disorders. For additional descriptions of dementia and mild cognitive impairments, the disclosures of U.S. Pat. No. 6,458,807, US Publication No. 2006/0018839, and WO 2005/074535 are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
“Neurodegenerative disease” refers to any neurodegenerative disease known in the art. Exemplary neurodegenerative diseases include Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, Pick's disease, Lewy body disease, prion diseases (e.g., Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease), epilepsy, strokes, and the like.
“Alzheimer's disease” refers to and includes one or more of mild Alzheimer's disease; mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease; moderate Alzheimer's disease; moderate-to-severe Alzheimer's disease; and severe Alzheimer's disease. Clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease include progressive disorientation, amnesia, and aphasia, which eventually cause incompetence, speech loss, and akinesia. Examples of pathological signs of Alzheimer's disease include neurofibrillary tangle, senile plaque, and amyloid vascular disorder. “To prevent progression of Alzheimer's disease” refers to preventing the onset or further progression of a clinical symptom(s) and/or a pathological sign(s) of Alzheimer's disease. For example, progression of a clinical symptom or a pathological sign can be prevented for patients who do not exhibit the clinical symptom(s) or pathological sign(s) of Alzheimer's disease. In addition, patients with a milder form of Alzheimer's disease can be prevented from progressing to a more severe of Alzheimer's disease. “To delay the progression of Alzheimer's disease” refers to delaying the onset of a symptom(s) and/or pathological sign(s) of Alzheimer's disease; or to slow down the rate at which Alzheimer's disease progresses, as determined by a clinical symptom(s) and/or a pathological sign(s). “To reverse the progression of Alzheimer's disease” refers to alleviating the severity of a symptom(s) of Alzheimer's disease, i.e., to alter the patient's symptom(s) from a more severe to a more mild condition, as determined by a reduction of the clinical symptom(s) and/or the pathological sign(s).
An Alzheimer's disease diagnosis can be carried out using various known methods. Typically, clinical and pathological assessments are combined to diagnose a patient with Alzheimer's disease. For example, progression or severity of Alzheimer's disease can be assessed using the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) (Mohs et al, (1996) Int. Psychogeriatr 8:195-203); the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-cog) (Galasko et al, (1997) Alzheimer Dis. Assoc. Disord., 11 Suppl. 2:S33-39); the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study-Activities of Daily Living scale (ADCS-ADL) (McKhann et al, (1984) Neurology 34:939-944); and the National Institute of Neurologic Communicative Disorders and the Stroke-Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association (NINCDS-ADRDA) criteria (Folstein et al, (1975) J.

In one embodiment, the mode of administration is by injection, such as subcutaneous injection, intramuscular injection, intravenous injection, or intra-arterial injection. Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions can be formulated according to the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents, suspending agents (e.g., methylcellulose, Polysorbate 80, hydroxyethylcellulose, acacia, powdered tragacanth, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate and the like), pH modifiers, buffers, solubilizing agents (e.g., polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, Polysorbate 80, nicotinamide, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate, Macrogol, an ethyl ester of castor oil fatty acid, and the like), stabilizers (e.g., sodium sulfite and sodium metasulfite; examples of the preservative include methyl parahydroxybenzoate, ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, sorbic acid, phenol, cresol, chlorocresol, and the like), tonicity agents and preservatives. The sterile injectable preparation can also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used are water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally used as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil can be used including synthetic mono- or diglycerides, in addition, fatty acids, such as oleic acid, can be used in the preparation of injectables. The preparations can be lyophilized by methods known in the art.
In order to prepare a solid oral formulation, an excipient, and if necessary, a binder, disintegrant, lubricant, colorant, a flavoring agent and the like are added to the principal agent, and then made into a tablet, a coated tablet, granule, fine granule, dispersant, a capsule or the like according to a conventional method.
For example, lactose, cornstarch, sucrose, glucose, sorbit, crystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide or the like may be used as the excipient; for example, polyvinyl alcohol, ethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, gum arabic, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose or the like may be used as the binder; for example, magnesium stearate, talc, silica or the like may be used as the lubricant; those that are allowed to be added to drugs may be used as the colorant; and for example, cocoa powder, menthol, aromatic acid, peppermint oil, camphor, cinnamon powder or the like may be used as the flavoring agent. Of course, if necessary, these tablets and granule may be coated appropriately with sugar coating, gelatin coating or else.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration can include chewing gum, capsules, tablets, sublingual tablets, powders, granules, and gels. In such solid dosage forms, the active ingredient(s) can be admixed with one or more inert diluents such as lactose or starch. As is normal practice, such dosage forms can also comprise other substances including lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms can also comprise buffering agents. The tablets can be prepared with enteric or film coatings.
To make tablets, the active ingredient(s) can be admixed with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers known in the art such as vehicles (e.g., lactose, white sugar, mannitol, glucose, starches, calcium carbonate, crystalline cellulose, silicic acid, and the like), binders (e.g., water, ethanol, myranol, glucose solution, starch solution, gelatin solution, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and the like), disintegrators (e.g., dry starch, sodium, alginate, sodium hydrogen carbonate, calcium carbonate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, sodium laurylsulfate, stearic monoglyceride, starches, lactose, and the like), absorption promoters (e.g., quaternary ammonium base, sodium laurylsulfate, and the like), wetting agents (e.g. glycerin, starches, and the like), lubricants (e.g., stearates, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and flavoring agents (e.g., sweeteners). The tablets can be in the form of a conventional tablet, a molded tablet, a wafer and the like. Sublingual administration refers to the administration in the mouth (e.g., under the tongue, between the cheek and gum, between the tongue and roof of the mouth). The highly vascular mucosal lining in the mouth is a convenient location for the active ingredients to be administered into the body.
In other embodiments, the solid dosage form can be packaged as granules or a powder in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, where the granules or powder are removed from the packaging and sprinkled on food or mixed with a liquid, such as water or juice, or where the granules are inserted into capsules. In this embodiment, the active ingredients described herein can be mixed with flavoring or sweetening agents. The packaging material can be plastic, coated paper, or any material that prevents water or moisture from reaching the granules and/or powder.
Liquid dosage fauns for oral administration can include pharmaceutically acceptable gels, emulsions, solutions, sublingual solutions, suspensions, and syrups containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Such compositions can also comprise adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents. To make sublingual solutions, the active ingredients can be admixed with various carriers, excipients, pH adjusters, and the like (e.g., water, sugar, lactic acid, acetic acid, fructose, glucose, saccharin, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, alcohol, bentonite, tragacanth, gelatin, alginates, aspartame, sorbitol, methylparaben, propylparaben, sodium benzoate, artificial flavoring and coloring agents).
Hereinafter, the present invention will be illustrated by way of specific examples, although the invention should not be limited thereto.
A clinical trial in combination with a cinnamide compound of the present invention and a cholinesterase inhibitor on patients with Alzheimer's disease.
Male and female patients aging from 60 to 85 suffering from mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease who fulfill the NINCDS-ADRDA criteria will be recruited, and 50 to 100 patients will be registered as a cinnamide compound treatment group for the main test. Physicians judge the patients who will be applied for the main test based on the NINCDS-ADRDA criteria before administration. The physicians also will diagnose patients' clinical signs for dementia and mild cognitive impairments, such as disorientation, impaired memory, impaired judgment, impaired intellect, anxiety, depression, agitation and deterioration in activity in daily life and will judge based on all information available at the point of analysis such as report from family members or care attendants, and period of care. Alzheimer's disease subjects will be attended by care attendants who will make sure of compliance with dosing regimen, hospital visit and procedure for this test. Patients suffering from other disease with a medically severe symptom, patients with any contraindication or patients who regularly will use cinnamide compound will be eliminated. Patients receiving treatment with a cholinesterase inhibitor (e.g., donepezil hydrochloride) for Alzheimer's disease will not be eliminated if they will be administered with a stable dose in a range of about 3 to 20 mg/day for at least several weeks (preferably, 4 weeks).
To Alzheimer's disease patients who will fulfill the NINCDS-ADRDA criteria, cinnamide compound will be administered at an amount formulated in a carrier appropriate for the selected dosing regimen. The patients will start with cinnamide compound treatment protocol. An amount of cinnamide compound in a range of about 10 to 500 mg/day, for example, 100 mg/day will be prescribed in 1 to 3 doses. During the test period, administration will be repeated daily. Starting from day 0, a test for assessment scale will be conducted regularly, for example, once a month.
The cinnamide compound treatment group will be evaluated for one or several assessment items including, for example, a test for cognitive and memory function, A beta present in cerebrospinal cord fluid or plasma, A beta deposition in the brain, brain amyloid plaque, or a volume of a brain or hippocampus. In the cinnamide compound treatment group, progression of the disease will be inhibited or delayed or a symptom of the disease will be alleviated as compared to the untreated control group. Specifically, results will be obtained where the degree or period of patients' disorientation, impaired memory, impaired judgment and impaired intellect will be reduced, patients' anxiety, depression, agitation, frustration or fecklessness will be reduced, or patients start to feel stable, will become socially active, or will become to have improved language ability or comprehension.
