Abstract
New pharmaceutical combination providing to decrease or eliminate the extrapyramidal side effects of antipsychotic active ingredients by combination of deramciclane with a classic antipsychotic agent (e.g. haloperidol, chloroprozamine or levoprozamin) or an atypical antipsychotic agent (e.g. risperidone, iloperidone or olanzapine).
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical combination containing an antipsychotic compound as a first active pharmaceutical ingredient and (1R,2S,4R)-(−)-2-[N,N-(dimethylamino-ethoxy)]-2-phenyl-1,7,7-trimethyl-biciklo[2.2.1]heptane (INN name is deramciclane) of the formula







as the second active pharmaceutical ingredient. The antipsychotic active pharmaceutical ingredient can be a classical antipsychotic (e.g. haloperidol, chlorpromazine, levomepromazine etc.), or an atypical antipsychotic (e.g. risperidone, iloperidone, olanzapine etc.).


TECHNICAL BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

During the administration of antipsychotics (neuroleptics) which compounds bind to the central D2 receptors the extrapyramidal side effects have to be taken into consideration in case of short time administration and the evolution of tardive dyskinesia in case of longer administration period. (Ossowka K., Neuronal basis of neuroleptic-induced extrapyramidal side effects. Pol. J. Pharmacol., 2002 July-August, 54(4) 299-312).


These compounds cause catalepsy in animal tests. Symptoms of catalepsy are increased muscle-tone, rigidity and inactivity because of the inhibition of nigrostratal dopaminerg system.


Striatium and substantia nigra (nigrostratalis) are parts of the extrapyramidal system, therefore these symptoms can be considered as extrapyramidal symptoms. Such symptoms are usual side effects of the administration of haloperidol, risperidone, iloperidone, and similar compounds, because of these compounds bind to D2 receptors.


There is a long felt need to reduce these side effects of antipsychotics for providing a possibility to increase their therapeutically used dose.


The aim described above reached surprisingly by co-administration of neuroleptic (antipsychotic) active pharmaceutical ingredients together with deramciclane.


Deramciclan does not cause catalepsy by itself however it binds also to central D2 receptors similarly to neuroleptic agents. (Gacsályi et al, Receptor binding profile and anxiolytic activity of deramciclane (EGIS-3886) in animal models, Drug Dev. Res. 40: p. 333-348, 1997, Table 11.

It is very surprising, that in the case of co-administration of deramciclane and neuroleptic agents, deranmciclane inhibits the cataleptic effect of the neuroleptic pharmaceutically active ingredients.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The basis of the present invention is the surprising recognition that although deramciclane itself also binds to the central D2 receptors, it is notwithstanding capable to reduce or eliminate of side effects caused by neuroleptics. These side effects are caused by receptor binding of these compounds to the central D2 receptors.

The adequate amounts of active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions or in the dosage units can be determined by person skilled in the art in case of known suitable daily doses and the chosen administration form.


Co-administration of deramciclane and antipsychotics are useful from the following point of views:


1. In case of increasing of the amount of used neuroleptics, the chance of extrapyramidal side effects are significantly lower. Due to this effect the therapeutic efficiency can be increased significantly.


2. The anti-anxiety effect which is a known feature of the majority of neuroleptic agents used in low dose, increases significantly in the combination therapy due to the synergistic effect of deramciclane.


3. The prevalence of the appearance of tardive dyskinesia as side effect significantly decreases or does not appear at all in case of long term administration of the combination.


The “complience”, the co-operation ability of patients increases as well significantly, because the use of a single pharmaceutical instead of two different. In case of elderly patients it is a frequent problem that the more pills are prescribed the more pills are misused.


In case of combination therapy the used dose rates are the same preferably which rates are used in case of monotherapy.


Present invention is shown more particularly in examples below without limiting of the scope of the protection to the examples. We prove in these examples that the deramciclane inhibits the extrapyramidal side effects caused by neuroleptics.


EXAMPLE 1
Inhibition of Catalepsy Generated by Haloperidol

Experiments were elaborated on 20-25 g weight NMRI mice. Groups of 10 mice were treated intraperitoneally with 15 mg/kg of haloperidol and carrier agent. Deramciclane (and carriers) were administered orally in different doses 60 minutes later. After a subsequent 60 minutes period mice were placed to a grid which has an inclination angle of 45°. In case of the animals were motionless for more than 30 seconds on the grid the events were seen as catalepsy. The procedure was repeated in every 30 minutes for 3 hours.


The effects are shown by percentage of changes compared to control group.


The results are shown in Table 2 and Diagram 1. It can be seen that deramciclane inhibits the catalepsy generated by haloperidol in a dose dependent way.
