Hypertension is a multifactorial disorder, and effective blood pressure control is not achieved in most individuals. According to the most recent report of the American Heart Association, for 2010, the estimated direct and indirect financial burden for managing hypertension is estimated to be $76.6 billion. Overall, almost 75% of adults with cardiovascular diseases/comorbidities have hypertension, which is associated with a shorter overall life expectancy. Alarmingly, rates of prehypertension and hypertension are increasing among children and adolescents due, in part, to the obesity epidemic we currently face. There is also the problem of an aging population and the growing rates of diabetes and obesity in adults, all factors that are associated with high blood pressure.Thus, the need is great for novel drugs that target the various contributing causes of hypertension and the processes leading to end organ damage.
Iptakalim (IPT), chemically 2, 3–dimethyl-N-(1-methylethyl)-2-butanamine hydrochloride, is novel adenosine triphosphate–sensitive potassium (KATP) channel opener. KATP channels are composed of discrete pore-forming inward rectifier subunits (Kir6.1s) and regulatory sulphonylurea subunits (SUR).IPT shows high selectivity for cardiac KATP (SUR2A/Kir6.2) and vascular KATP (SUR2B/Kir6.1 or SUR6B/Kir6.2). Because of this high selectivity, IPT does not exhibit the adverse side effects associated with the older nonspecific K+ channel openers, which limit their use to the treatment of severe or refractory hypertension. IPT produces arteriolar and small artery vasodilatation, with no significant effect on capacitance vessels or large arteries. Vasodilatation is induced by causing cellular hyperpolarization via the opening of K+ channels, which in turn decreases the opening probability of L-type Ca2+ channels. Of particular note, IPT is very effective in lowering the blood pressure of hypertensive humans but not of those with normal blood pressure.
 
  • The present compd relates generally to a novel method for decreasing a human's cravings for cigarettes and reducing instances of relapse during detoxification once smoking abstinence has been achieved, and more specifically, to a method for decreasing nicotine use by treating a human with a novel type of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist, iptakalim hydrochloride (IPT).

  • Cigarette smoking is a prevalent, modifiable risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality in the United States, and perhaps in the world. Smokers incur medical risks attributable to direct inhalation. Bystanders, termed passive smokers, also incur medical risks from second-hand smoke. Society, as a whole, also bears the economic costs associated with death and disease attributable to smoking. Although the majority of smokers have tried repeatedly to quit smoking, eighty percent of smokers return to tobacco in less than two years after quitting. Therefore, tobacco dependence is a health hazard for millions of Americans.
  •  
    Nicotine is the biologically active substance that is thought to promote the use of tobacco products by approximately one-quarter of the world populations. Tobacco-related disease is personally and economically costly to the any nation. Unfortunately, once use of tobacco has begun, it is hard for a smoker to quit because of nicotinic dependence and addiction.
  •  
    The initiation and maintenance of tobacco dependence in a human is due to certain bio-behavioral and neuromolecular mechanisms. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in humans are the initial binding sites for nicotine. The binding of nicotine to nAChRs is thought to modulate the brain's “reward” function by triggering dopamine release in the human brain. The nAChRs exist as a diverse family of molecules composed of different combinations of subunits derived from at least sixteen genes. nAChRs are prototypical members of the ligand-gated ion channel superfamily of neurotransmitter receptors. nAChRs represent both classical and contemporary models for the establishment of concepts pertaining to mechanisms of drug action, synaptic transmission, and structure and function of transmembrane signaling molecules.
  •  
    Basic cellular mechanisms of nicotinic dependence also involve the functional state changes during repeated nicotinic agonists exposure and receptor changes in the number of receptors during chronic nicotinic exposure. nAChRs can exist in many different functional states, such as resting, activated, desensitized or inactivated The activation and/or desensitization of nAChRs plays an important role in initiating nicotinic tolerance and dependence. Recovery from receptor activation and/or desensitization contributes to nicotinic withdrawal symptoms.
  •  
    The most abundant form of nAChRs in the brain contains α4 and β2 subunits. α4β2-nAChRs bind nicotine with high affinity and respond to levels of nicotine found in the plasma of smokers. α4β2-nAChR also have been implicated in nicotine self-administration, reward, and dependence. Therefore, selective drug action at nAChRs, especially at those containing α4 subunits, is thought to be an ideal way for nicotine cessation and reducing nicotine withdrawal syndrome. Unfortunately, thus far, no optimal compound can meet this purpose. The brain-blood-barrier permeable nAChR antagonist, mecamylamine is popularly used systemically but exhibits much less nAChR subtype selectivity.
  •  
    Although a variety of psychopharmacological effects contribute to drug reinforcement, actions on the mesolimbic dopaminergic pathway is the predominant hypothesis for mechanisms of nicotinic reward. The mesolimbic dopaminergic pathway originates in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) of the midbrain and projects to forebrain structures including the prefrontal cortex and to limbic areas such as the olfactory tubercle, the amygdala, the septal region, and the nucleus accumbens. Many studies have indicated that dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens of the human brain is “rewarding” or signals an encounter with a “reward” from the environment. Other substances, such as alcohol, cocaine, and opiates, operate in the same manner, resulting in a cycle of substance or alcohol abuse.
  •  
    Therefore, a considerable need exists for a novel compound that can selectively block α4 subtypes of nAChRs to prevent smoking-induced “reward”, to limit increasing nicotine-induced dopamine release, and/or to diminish nicotinic withdrawal symptoms.

Tesmilifene is a novel potentiator of chemotherapy which, when added to doxorubicin, achieved an unexpected and very large survival advantage over doxorubicin alone in a randomized trial in advanced breast cancer.
PHASE 23 FOR An estrogen receptor antagonist potentially for the treatment of advanced breast cancer, gastric cancer
Tesmilifene is a novel agent that augments cytotoxicity of various chemotherapeutic agents both in vitro and in vivo. It binds selectively to the high-affinity microsomal antiestrogen binding site (Ki=50nm) but has no affinity for estrogen receptors. Inhibits concanavalin-A-induced histamine release in mast cells and acts as a novel antagonist of intracellular histamine.

Tesmilifene is a small molecule chemopotentiator under development by YM BioSciences, a Candian pharmaceutical company that specialises in the development of cancer treatments. It is indicated for use in combination with standard cytotoxic drugs, such as taxanes and anthracyclines, which are widely used in the treatment of metastatic disease – when cancers spread to distant sites in the body.
Tesmilifene, the company's lead investigational compound, is currently in phase III development for patients with metastatic breast cancer. At the end of January 2007, an independent safety monitoring board advised the company that its ongoing registration trial should be stopped; it was considered unlikely that significant differences in overall survival (primary endpoint) between treatment arms would emerge over time. The company had hoped that the addition of tesmilifene to standard epirubicin/cyclophosphamide therapy would confer a survival benefit similar to that seen in its earlier phase III trial.
In light of these disappointing results, YM BioSciences plans a detailed analysis of its phase III data in advanced breast cancer to see if it can identify why tesmilifene failed to add clinical benefit in this trial.
DRUG RESISTANCE LIMITS EFFECTIVENESS OF CHEMOTHERAPY
Cytotoxic drugs have proved potent weapons in the fight against malignant tumours and are considered first-line therapy for the treatment of many cancers. However, while patients often respond well to a first course of chemotherapy over time the response to drug treatment diminishes and the tumour may eventually become drug resistant. In some cases resistance can develop across several classes of anti-cancer drugs, leading to multidrug resistance. The development of drug resistance limits the effectiveness of many anti-cancer agents and is an important contributor to cancer deaths.
The development of agents that can overcome drug resistance is seen as one of the most important areas of cancer research and for which there is significant unmet need. Various approaches are being explored to boost the use of cytotoxic agents including chemopotentiators, chemoprotectants and liposomal formulations.
Clearly any agent that can prevent or reverse drug resistance would have a major impact on treatment strategies, enhancing the benefits of standard cytotoxic drugs.
TESMILIFENE MAY BOOST CYTOTOXIC EFFECTS OF ANTHRACYCLINES
Anthracyclines are a class of cytotoxic agents with proven efficacy in the treatment of breast cancer. They include agents such as doxorubicin and epirubicin among others. Because patients with metastatic breast cancer may have received anthracycline therapy for earlier stage breast cancer (adjuvant therapy) or following disease recurrence, there is a risk that they will fail to respond to continued treatment.
A phase III trial in 305 patients with advanced breast cancer has shown that when tesmilifene is combined with doxorubicin it appears to improve survival over treatment with doxorubicin alone. In this trial approximately half the patients were treated with both tesmilifene and doxorubicin, while the other half received doxorubicin alone. Although there were no significant differences in tumour response rates, progression-free survival, or average duration of response between treatment arms at endpoint, overall survival was significantly improved in the combination arm. Among patients treated with tesmilifene and doxorubicin overall survival was 23.6 months compared with 15.6 months for those treated with doxorubicin alone.
Researchers have suggested that tesmilifene may enhance the anti-tumour effects of anthracyclines in several ways:
  • Reducing the cancer cell's ability to become resistant
  • Decreasing the metabolism or "break-down" of doxorubicin
  • Disrupting the cancer cell's energy source
TESMILIFENE REGISTRATION TRIAL
In March 2004 YM BioSciences began its pivotal international phase III trial of tesmilifene in metastatic breast cancer. By September 2005, 723 patients had been enrolled in the trial, which was designed once again to compare the efficacy and safety of tesmilifene and an antrhacycline (epirubicin) with epirubicin alone.
"At the end of January 2007, an independent safety monitoring board advised the company that its ongoing registration trial should be stopped."
Given the survival benefit seen in the earlier trial, which was carried out by the Canadian National Cancer Institute, the company was optimistic about outcome in its pivotal registration trial. However, an interim analysis of 351 events suggested that significant differences in overall survival were unlikely to be seen between the two treatment arms as the data matured and the trial was brought to a premature end.
In addition to its work on anthracyclines, YM BioSciences has also been exploring the potential of tesmilifene to enhance the efficacy of taxanes, also standard chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer. Other potential applications include:
  • Adjuvant therapy for breast cancer, i.e. immediately post-surgery and before the cancer has recurred or metastasised
  • Hormone-refractory prostate cancer
  • Lung cancer
  • Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
MARKETING COMMENTARY
Although there have been major advances in the treatment of breast cancer in the last 10 to 15 years, it remains a disease for which improved treatments are still urgently needed. Estimates from the WHO suggest that metastatic breast cancer will claim the lives of over 40,000 patients a year.
Current treatments for metastatic breast cancer are rarely curative but can nonetheless do much to improve patients' quality of life or duration of survival. . By boosting the cytotoxic effects of standard chemotherapy agents such as anthracyclines, while protecting healthy cells, tesmilifene was thought to have potential to extend the benefits of cytotoxic therapy to more patients. This is now in doubt following premature ending of its pivotal registration trial in advanced breast cancer.

Zucapsaicin (Civanex) is a medication used to treat osteoarthritis of the knee and other neuropathic pain. It is applied three times daily for a maximum of three months. It reduces pain, and improves articular functions. It is the cis-isomer of capsaicin. Civamide, manufactured by Winston Pharmaceuticals, is produced in formulations for oral, nasal, and topical use (patch and cream).[1]
Zucapsaicin has been tested for treatment of a variety of conditions associated with ongoing nerve pain. This includes herpes simplex infections; cluster headaches and migraine; and knee osteoarthritis.[2]

Civanex (zucapsaicin) cream is a TRPV-1 modulator in development for the treatment of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee.
Zucapsaicin, the cis-isomer of the natural product capsaicin, is a
topical analgesic that was initially developed by Winston Pharmaceuticals
and approved in Canada in July 2010 for the treatment of
severe pain in adults with osteoarthritis of the knee.
Bronson, J.; Dhar, M.; Ewing, W.; Lonberg, N. In Annual Reports in MedicinalChemistry; John, E. M., Ed.; Academic Press, 2011; Vol. 46, p 433.
The advantagesof zucapsaicin compared with naturally-occurring capsaicin, are reported to be a lesser degree of local irritation (stinging, burning,
erythema) in patients and a greater degree of efficacy in preclinical
animal models of pain.
Bernstein, J. E. U.S. 5063060, 1991.
Bernstein, J. E. U.S. 20050084520 A1, 2005.
The analgesic action of both
zucapsaicin and capsaicin is mediated through the transient receptor
potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) channel, a ligand-gated ion
channel expressed in the spinal cord, brain, and localized on neurons
in sensory projections to the skin, muscles, joints, and
gut.
Westaway, S. M. J. Med. Chem. 2007, 50, 2589.
The scale preparation of zucapsaicin likely parallels the original
approach described by Gannett and co-workers involving the
coupling of vanillylamine with (Z)-8-methylnon-6-enoyl chloride.
Gannett, P. M.; Nagel, D. L.; Reilly, P. J.; Lawson, T.; Sharpe, J.; Toth, B. J. Org.Chem. 1988, 53, 1064.
Orito and co-workers elaborated this original approach in
an effort to prepare both capsaicin and zucapsaicin on gram-scale,
