TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to the combination of certain known active compounds for therapeutic purposes.
1. Technical Background
A whole series of compounds are known from the prior art which inhibit gastric acid secretion by blocking the proton pump and which have therefore also been designated as proton pump inhibitors (PPI). These compounds are suitable for the treatment of gastric and intestinal disorders and reflux oesophagitis, and some of them have been approved by health authorities in this respect. Furthermore, compounds are known from the prior art which can be used for treating airway disorders and which are herein below referred to as airway therapeutics. The purposive combined use of PPIs and airway therapeutics in the meaning of the invention described in more detail below for therapeutic purposes has hitherto not been described in the prior art.
2. Prior art
In International Patent Application WO 96/22978, substituted phenyl compounds are described which are said to be useful as endothelin antagonists. The combination of these compounds with compounds of a variety of other substance classes, inter alia with proton pump inhibitors, is mentioned. However, no particular utility of these combinations is given. In International Patent Application WO 98/16228 the combined use of a H+, K+-ATPase inhibitor and of a glucocorticoid in the treatment of asthma is described. International Patent Application WO 99/04816 relates to the combined use of a proton pump inhibitor and of an antibacterial active substance. International Patent Application WO 00/10529 relates to certain oral liquid mucoadhesive compositions, which may contain various pharmaceutically active classes compounds, and mixtures thereof. International Patent Application WO 00/69438 describes inter alia the use of an NK-1 antagonist and a proton pump inhibitor in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment of asthma conditions. T. O. Kiljander et al. (CHEST 1999; 116: 1257-1264) concluded after an 8-week double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study with omeprazole as sole medication that there was a reduction in nocturnal asthma symptoms. W. J. Pan et al. (Aliment. Pharmacol. Ther. 2000; 14: 345-352) found a lack of pharmacokinetic interaction between lansoprazole or pantoprazole and theophyllin, without studying any effects of these combinations on asthma symptoms. J. Cuppoletti et al. (Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology (2000) 27; 896-900 describe the activation of human CIC-2 Cl− channels and the resulting implications for cystic fibrosis. D. Stancic-Rokotov et al. describe the beneficial effect of e.g. omeprazole on HCl-induced lung lesions in rats.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Surprisingly, it has now been found that proton pump inhibitors, whose original field of use is the treatment of gastric and intestinal disorders, are, in combination with airway therapeutics, particularly suitable for the treatment of airway disorders.
Accordingly, in a first aspect, the invention provides the combined use of proton pump inhibitors and airway therapeutics for treating airway disorders.
Proton pump inhibitors are designated as those substances which inhibit gastric acid secretion by blocking the proton pump, i.e. which bind covalently to H+/K+-ATPase, the enzyme responsible for gastric acid secretion. This includes in particular active compounds having a 2-[(2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole skeleton or a related skeleton, where these skeletons may be substituted in various forms. According to the invention, the term “proton pump inhibitors” includes not only the active compounds as such, but also their pharmacologically acceptable salts, solvates (in particular hydrates), etc.
Exemplary proton pump inhibitors which may be mentioned are those described and claimed in the following patent applications and patents: DE-A-3531487, EP-A-0 005 129, EP-A-0 124 495, EP-A-0 166 287, EP-A 0 174 726, EP-A 0 184 322, EP-A 0 254 588, EP-A-0 261 478, EP-A-0 268 956, EP-A-0 434 999 and WO-A-9523149. The compounds 2-[2-(N-isobutyl-N-methylamino)benzyl-sulphinyl]benzimidazole (INN: leminoprazole), 2-(4-methoxy-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-cyclohepta[b]pyridin-9-ylsulphinyl)-1H-benzimidazole (INN: nepaprazole), 2-(4-methoxy-3-methyl-pyridin-2-ylmethylsulphinyl)5-pyrrol-1-y-1H-benzimidazole (IY-81149), 5-methoxy-2-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1-H-inidazo[4,5-b]pyridine(tenatoprazole), especially 5-methoxy-2-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (INN: omeprazole), 5-methoxy-2-[(S)-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (INN: esomeprazole), 2-[3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (INN: lansoprazole) and 2-{[4-(3-methoxypropoxy)-3-methylpyridin-2-yl]-methylsulphinyl}-1H-benzimidazole (INN: rabeprazole) and in particular 5-difluoromethoxy-2-[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (INN: pantoprazole) and (−)-5-difluoromethoxy-2-[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole [(−)pantoprazole] may be mentioned by way of example.
The proton pump inhibitors are present as such or in the form of their salts with bases. Examples of salts with bases which may be mentioned are sodium, potassium, magnesium or calcium salts. If the proton pump inhibitors or their salts are isolated in crystalline form, the crystals may contain variable amounts of solvent. Thus, according to the invention, the term “proton pump inhibitor” also includes all solvates, in particular all hydrates, of the proton pump inhibitors and their salts. Pantoprazole-sodium sesquihydrate (=pantoprazole-sodium×1.5 H2O), (−)-pantoprazole-sodium sesquihydrate, pantoprazole-magnesium dihydrate, omeprazole-magnesium, omeprazole-magnesium tetrahydrate, esomeprazole-magnesium and esomeprazole-magnesium tetrahydrate may be mentioned as particularly preferred salts or hydrates of proton pump inhibitors.

The invention particularly preferable provides the combined use of 5-difluoromethoxy-2-[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole(pantoprazole) and 3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-N-(3,5-dichloro-4-pyridyl)-4-(difluoromethoxy)benzamide (ROFLUMILAST) for the treatment of airway disorders.
The invention furthermore particularly preferable provides the combined use of 5-difluoromethoxy-2-[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridinyl)methylsulphinyl]-1H-benzimidazole(pantoprazole) and ciclesonide for the treatment of airway disorders.
Airway disorders which may be mentioned are in particular allergen- and inflammation-induced pulmonary abnormalities and bronchial disorders (for example bronchitis, obstructive bronchitis including COPD, spastic bronchitis, allergic bronchitis, allergic asthma, bronchial asthma, in particular night-time asthma attacks, pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis), which can be treated by the combination according to the invention also in the context of a long-term therapy (if desired with appropriate adjustment of the dose of the individual components to the needs at the time, for example needs subject to seasonally related variations).
“Combined use” or “combination” within the meaning of the present invention is to be understood as meaning that the individual components can be administered simultaneously (in the form of a combination medicament), more or less simultaneously (from separate pack units) or in succession (one directly after the other directly or else alternatively within a relatively large time span) in a manner which is known per se and customary.
Within the meaning of the present invention, “use” is preferably understood as meaning the oral administration of both active compounds. However, it is also conceivable to administer the proton pump inhibitor parenterally (for example intravenously) and/or to administer the airway therapeutic parenterally or topically (in particular by inhalation). For administration by inhalation, the airway therapeutic is preferably administered in the form of an aerosol, the aerosol particles of solid, liquid or mixed composition having a diameter of 0.5 to 10 μm, advantageously of 2 to 6 μm.
Aerosol generation can be carried out, for example, by pressure-operated jet atomizers or ultrasonic atomizers, but advantageously by propellant-operated metered aerosols or propellant-free administration of micronized active compounds from inhalation capsules.
Depending on the inhaler system used, in addition to the active compounds the administration forms also contain the required excipients, such as, for example, propellants (e.g. Frigen in the case of metered aerosols), surface-active substances, emulsifiers, stabilizers, preservatives, flavourings, fillers (e.g. lactose in the case of powder inhalers) or, if appropriate, further active compounds.
For the purposes of inhalation, a large number of apparatuses are available with which aerosols of optimum particle size can be generated and administered, using an inhalation technique which is as appropriate as possible for the patient. In addition to the use of adaptors (spacers, expanders) and pear-shaped containers (e.g. Nebulator®), Volumatic®), and automatic devices emitting a puff of spray (Autohaler®), for metered aerosols, in particular in the case of powder inhalers, a number of technical solutions are available (e.g. Diskhaler®, Rotadisk®, Turbohaler® or the inhaler described in European Patent Application EP 0 505 321), using which an optimal administration of active compound can be achieved.
The active compounds are dosed in an order of magnitude customary for the individual dosage, where it may be possible, on account of the individual actions, which are mutually positively influencing and reinforcing, to reduce the respective dosages on the combined administration of the active compounds compared with the norm, or where—if the dosage of the individual components is the customary dosage—a surprisingly better and longer-lasting activity is obtained.
The proton pump inhibitor is usually administered in a dose of from 5 to 100, advantageously from 10 to 60, in particular from 20 to 40 mg, administered once or, if required, twice a day. In the case of the airway therapeutics, the dose customary for the person skilled in the art is administered, which, depending on the class of active compound, may vary within a very broad range. Thus, for example, the β2 adrenoceptor agonist is—depending on the active compound—in the case of administration by inhalation usually administered in a dosage of, for example, 0.002 to 2.0 mg per day. For the PDE inhibitors, it is possible in the case of oral administration to vary the doses—depending on the active compound—within a wide range. It being possible, as a framework, to start from a dose of 1-2000 μg/kg of body weight. In the case of the administration of the preferred PDE inhibitor roflumilast, the dosage is in the range from 2-20 μg/kg of body weight.
The proton pump inhibitors or airway therapeutics to be administered orally are formulated—if appropriate jointly—to give medicaments according to processes known per se and familiar to the person skilled in the art. The pharmacologically active compounds are employed as medicaments, preferably in combination with suitable pharmaceutical excipients or vehicles, in the form of tablets, coated tablets, capsules, emulsions, suspensions or solutions, the active compound content advantageously being between 0.1 and 95% and, by the appropriate choice of the excipients and vehicles, it being possible to achieve a pharmaceutical administration form precisely tailored to the active compound(s) and/or to the desired onset of action (e.g. a sustained-release form or an enteric form). The person skilled in the art is familiar on the basis of his/her expert knowledge with which excipients or vehicles are suitable for the desired pharmaceutical formulations. In addition to solvents, gel-forming agents, tablet excipients and other active compound carriers, it is possible to use, for example, antioxidants, dispersants, emulsifiers, antifoams, flavour corrigents, preservatives, solubilizers, colourants or permeation promoters and complexing agents (e.g. cyclodextrins), where for all dosage forms the generally known sensitivity of the proton pump inhibitors—in particular to acids—has to be taken into account.
In a further aspect, the invention provides the use of a proton pump inhibitor in combination with an airway therapeutic for treating patients suffering from an airway disorder.
The invention further provides a method for treating airway disorders which comprises administering to a patient in need of such a treatment an effective amount of a proton pump inhibitor together with an airway therapeutic.
The invention further provides the use of proton pump inhibitors and airway therapeutics for preparing combination medicaments for treating airway disorders.
The invention further provides a pharmaceutical preparation for treating airway disorders, which preparation comprises, as active compounds, a proton pump inhibitor and an airway therapeutic.
The invention further provides a ready-to-use medicament, comprising, as active compounds, a proton pump inhibitor and an airway therapeutic, which contains a reference to the fact that these active compounds are to be taken for the treatment of an airway disorder more or less simultaneously or in succession (one directly after the other or else within a relatively large time span).
The invention further provides a ready-to-use medicament, comprising, as active compound, a proton pump inhibitor, which contains a reference to the fact that this proton pump inhibitor is to be taken for the treatment of an airway disorder more or less simultaneously or in succession (one directly after the other or else within a relatively large time span) with an airway therapeutic.
