Nefopam, sold under the brand names Acupan among others, is a painkilling medication. It is primarily used to treat moderate, acuteor chronic pain[3]

It is believed to work in the brain and spinal cord to relieve pain. There it is believed to work via rather unique mechanisms. Firstly it increases the activity of the serotoninnorepinephrine and dopamineneurotransmitters involved in, among other things, pain signaling. Secondly, it modulates sodium and calcium channels, thereby inhibiting the release of glutamate, a key neurotransmitter involved in pain processing.[4

Medical uses

Nefopam has additional action in the prevention of shivering, which may be a side effect of other drugs used in surgery.[5] Nefopam was significantly more effective than aspirin as an analgesic in one clinical trial,[6] although with a greater incidence of side effects such as sweating, dizziness and nausea, especially at higher doses.[7][8] Nefopam is around a third to half the potency and slightly less effective as an analgesic compared to morphine,[9][10][11] or oxycodone,[12] but tends to produce fewer side effects, does not produce respiratory depression,[13] and has much less abuse potential, and so is useful either as an alternative to opioids, or as an adjunctive treatment for use alongside opioid(s) or other analgesics.[11][14] Nefopam is also used to treat severe hiccups.[15]

Contraindications

Nefopam is contraindicated in people with convulsive disorders, those that have received treatment with irreversible monoamine oxidase inhibitors such as phenelzinetranylcypromine or isocarboxazid within the past 30 days and those with myocardial infarctionpain, mostly due to a lack of safety data in these conditions.[16]

Side effects

Common side effects include nausea, nervousness, dry mouth, light-headedness and urinary retention.[16] Less common side effects include vomiting, blurred vision, drowsiness, sweating, insomnia, headache, confusion, hallucinations, tachycardia, aggravation of angina and rarely a temporary and benign pink discolouration of the skin or erythema multiforme.[16]

Overdose

Overdose and death have been reported with nefopam,[17] although these events are less common with nefopam than with opioid analgesics.[18] Overdose usually manifests with convulsionshallucinationstachycardia, and hyperdynamic circulation.[16] Treatment is usually supportive, managing cardiovascular complications with beta blockers and limiting absorption with activated charcoal.[16]

Interactions

It has additive anticholinergic and sympathomimetic effects with other agents with these properties.[16] Its use should be avoided in people receiving some types of antidepressants (tricyclic antidepressants or monoamine oxidase inhibitors) as there is the potential for serotonin syndrome or hypertensive crises to result.[16]

Pharmacology

Nefopam[19][20]
Site Ki (nM)
SERT 29
NET 33
DAT 531
5-HT2A 1,685
5-HT2B 330
5-HT2C 56

The mechanism of action of nefopam and its analgesic effects are not well understood, although inhibition of the reuptake of serotoninnorepinephrine, and to a lesser extent dopamine (that is, acting as an SNDRI) is thought to be involved.[21][4] It also reduces glutamate signaling via modulating sodium and calcium channels.[22][4]

Pharmacokinetics

The absolute bioavailability of nefopam is low.[1] It is reported to achieve therapeutic plasma concentrations between 49 and 183 nM.[20] The drug is approximately 73% protein-bound across a plasma range of 7 to 226 ng/mL (28–892 nM).[1] The metabolism of nefopam is hepatic, by Ndemethylation and via other routes.[1] Its terminal half-life is 3 to 8 hours, while that of its active metabolite, desmethylnefopam, is 10 to 15 hours.[1] It is eliminated mostly in urine, and to a lesser extent in feces.[1]

Chemistry

Nefopam is a cyclized analogue of orphenadrinediphenhydramine, and tofenacin, with each of these compounds different from one another only by the presence of one or two carbons.[23][24][25] The ring system of nefopam is a benzoxazocine system.[23][26]

Society and culture

Recreational use

Recreational use of nefopam has been reported,[17] although this is less common than with opioid analgesics.[18]

PATENT

ES 8605495

The reaction of 2-benzoylbenzoic acid (I) with SOCl2 in CHCl3, benzene or DMF gives the corresponding acyl chloride (II), which is condensed with ethanolamine (III) by means of TEA in CHCl3 to yield the amide (IV). The reduction of (IV) with LiAlH4 in THF affords the diol (V), which is cyclized by means of Ts-OH in refluxing benzene to provide 1-phenyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-2,5-benzoxazocine (VI). Finally, this compound is methylated by means of dimethyl sulfate in refluxing benzene, or by means of formaldehyde in hot dioxane/water. Alternatively, the cyclization of N-[2-[1-[2-(chloromethyl)phenyl]-1-phenylmethoxy]ethyl]-N-methylamine (VII) by means of pyridine in refluxing acetonitrile gives also the target benzoxazocine

PATENT

ES 8104800

The reaction of 3-phenylphthalide (I) with N-methylethanolamine (II) in refluxing benzene gives N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-(1-hydroxy-1-phenylmethyl)-N-methylbenzamide (III), which is cyclized by means of Ts-OH in refluxing toluene to yield 5-methyl-1-phenyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-2,5-benzoxazocin-6-one (IV). Finally this compound is reduced with LiAlH4 in refluxing THF to afford the target benzoxazocine. In an alternative method, the reduction of 2-benzoyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methylbenzamide (V) by means of sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminum hydride in refluxing toluene gives the diol (VI), which is then cyclized by means of Ts-OH in refluxing toluene, or by means of aq. 48% HBr in hot chloroform to afford the target benzoxazocine

The reaction of 2-benzoylbenzoic acid (I) with refluxing SOCl2 gives the corresponding acyl chloride (II), which is condensed with 2-(methylamino)acetic acid (III) in benzene to yield the N-(2-benzoylbenzoyl)-N-methylglycine (IV). The reduction of (IV) by means of LiAlH4 in refluxing THF affords the diol (V), which is finally cyclized by means of PPA at 80 C to provide the target benzoxazocine.

This compound is useful as an intermediate in producing the pharmacologically valuable 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-5-methyl-l-phenyl-lH-2,5-benzoxazocine- hydrochloride, or nefopam, which is used, e.g. as a muscle relaxant, an analgesic or antidepressant drug.

Processes for producing the compound of formula I are already known. For instance, according to German Patent 1,620,198, phthalic aldehyde is used as a starting material. According to the German Patent, the phthalic aldehyde is reacted with a Grignard reagent, phenylmagnesiumbromide, and an N-substituted aminoalcohol is coupled to the reaction mixture, to produce a product of formula:

Figure imgb0002

This product is catalytically hydrogenated with the aid of Pd/C, Pt or Raney-Ni, and a product of formula I is obtained.

In another method, according to the German Patent 1,620,198, o-benzoylbenzoic acid is used as a starting material, which is converted by means of thionylchloride into an acid chloride. To this acid chloride is then coupled methylethanolamine, and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-o-benzoylbenzamide is obtained as an intermediate, which is reduced using LiAlH4 and an end-product of formula I is produced.

According to United States Patent 3,487,153 o-benzoylbenzoic acid amide is used as starting material to produce the intermediate. With the aid of thionylchloride the corresponding acid chloride is formed, which is allowed to react with N-methyl-2-aminoethanol. The so-produced N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-o-benzoylbenzamide is reduced with LiAlH4 to 2{[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl)amino}-methylbenzhydrol.

According to German Offenlegungschrift 2,834,312 o-benzoylbenzoic acid is used as a starting material, which is allowed to react with phosphorus trichloride in dichloroethane. The acid chloride formed is allowed to react with triethylamine and N-methyl-2-hydroxyethyl- amine, after which N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-o-benzoylbenzamide is formed. This compound is treated with phosphorus trichloride (at pH=7.0) and N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-methyl-o-benzoylbenzoic amide is obtained, which is then reduced with NaBH4 in acetic acid. By these means 2-{[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino?-methylbenzhydrol is obtained.

According to Finnish Patent No. 54793, which corresponds to Canadian Patent 982,608, a compound of formula III is used as starting material, which is reduced with NaBH4 to a corresponding benzhydrol derivative of formula IV, which is then allowed to react with an alkylamine to an a-substituted 2-aminomethyl- benzylalcohol of formula V. The abovementioned Patent does not concern either the preparation of nefopam or its intermediates

Figure imgb0003

When reviewing the abovementioned Patents, i.e. German Patent 1,620,198 and United States Patent 3,487,153, one can observe the disadvantage that catalytic hydrogenation with palladium on charcoal, platinum or Raney-Ni, or lithium aluminium hydride are to be used to reduce the starting materials. This latter reagent is expensive and reacts with water very intensely, so that even a little humidity in the working surroundings or in the solvents can cause a fire. Explosive hydrogen is also produced by the reaction. Grignard reactions and catalytic hydrogenations are technically difficult to perform on a large scale. Moreover, the price of o-phthalic aldehyde is high.

According to the method described in German Offenlegungschrift 2,834,312 the reducing of the amide- carbonyl group with sodium borohydride in acetic acid requires, however, great additional amounts or about 2-3 equivalents of sodium borohydride. The yield of the reaction is quite poor (about 50-55%) and the reaction time is long, so the production costs become high. Moreover, the number of synthetic reaction steps is high and the use of phosphorus trichloride especially on a production scale is difficult.

In the method according to the Finnish Patent 54793, which corresponds to the Canadian Patent 982,608, a benzophenone derivative (of formula III) is reduced with NaBH4 to the corresponding benzhydrol derivative (formula IV). This compound is, however, unstable because of the methylene halogen group in o-position, especially when R1 = H in formula IV. On storing for only a short time hydrogenchloride gas is released and a very stable 5-ring ether is formed, which is useless. The use of this method on a large scale is therefore almost impossible, because the intermediate is impossible to isolate fast enough to obtain at least a reasonable amount of the end product.

The present invention provides a process for the preparation of 2-{[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}-methylbenzhydrol (as such or as an acid addition salt) which comprises reacting 2-chloromethylbenzophenone with 2-methylaminoethanol to give 2-J[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}-methylbenzophenone (as such or as a salt), and reducing the latter with sodium borohydride to give 2-{[N-2-(hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl)-aminol}-methylbenzhydrol (as such or as an acid addition salt). The 2-chlorobenzophenone (of formula VI) is brought to react with methylethanolamine in the presence of e.g. sodium carbonate, and 2-{[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}- methylbenzophenone (of formula VII) is formed. This substance is theoreduced with sodium borohydride to 2-{(N-(hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}-methylbenzhydrol (of formula VIII), as shown below:

Figure imgb0004

Figure imgb0005

The starting material, 2-chloromethyl benzophenone, can be produced in known manner by halogenating the corresponding 2-methylbenzophenone (Monatshefte far Chemie 99, 1990-2003, 1968) or 2-hydroxymethylbenzophenone, of which the former is commercially available and the latter can be produced in known manner from the phthalide (see British Patent 1,526,331). The compound of formula VII is new, and as such a feature of the invention.

The following Examples illustrate the invention.

EXAMPLE 1

8.50 g (0.037 mol) 2-chloromethylbenzophenone is dissolved in 40 ml ethylalcohol, and 4.0 g sodium carbonate and 2.80 g (0.037 mol) 2-methylaminoethanol are added, The mixture is boiled for 3 hours and the salts formed are filtered off from the cooled solution. A pure reaction product is obtained when the ethanol is evaporated from the solution and the product is crystallized as a hydrochloride salt from a mixture of diethylether and alcohol. The yield is 10.7 g (95 %) of 2{(N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}- methylbenzophenone as a crystalline powder, m.p. 135-136 C.

This compound, as the free base, shows the following N M R spectrum (in cDC13 using T M S as internal reference): 7.8 – 7.1 (aromatic), 3.5 (singlet), 3.4 (triplet), about 2.6 (singlet), 2.3 (triplet),1.9 (singlet). Its infra-red spectrum shows maxima at the following frequencies (cm-1): 680, 720, 760, 910, 1010, 1060, 1140, 1230, 1260, 1300, 1430, 1560,1580, 1640, 2760, 2920, 3030 and 3400.

EXAMPLE 2

10.0 g (0.033 mol) of the hydrochloride salt prepared in Example 1 are dissolved in a mixture comprising 15 ml water, 60 ml methanol and 3.5 g sodium hydroxide. To the mixture is added 0.65 g sodium borohydride and the solution is mixed for half an hour at room temperature.

The solution is acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid and the methanol is evaporated in vacum. 40 ml of water is added, the pH of the water solution is adjusted with diluted sodium hydroxide solution to an alkaline reaction and the product is extracted into chloroform. The chloroform extracts are washed well with water, dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated to dryness. The product is separated by precipitating as a hydrochloride salt from a mixture of diethylether and ethylalcohol. The yield is 9.8 g (96 %) of 2-{(N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl]-amino}- methylbenzhydrol as a crystalline powder, m.p. 128-133 C.

 Abstract Image

Nefopam hydrochloride is extensively used in most of the European countries until today as an analgesic because of its non-opiate (non-narcotic) and non-steroidal action with fewer side effects compared with opioid and other analgesics, which cause more troublesome side effects. A multikilogram synthesis of nefopam hydrochloride has been achieved in one pot using a single solvent (toluene). A ≥99.9% purity of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) was achieved in excellent overall yield (≥79%). The one-pot, five-step synthetic process involves formation of an acid chloride (3) from benzoylbenzoic acid (2) followed by amidation (4), reduction (5), cyclization (6), and formation of the hydrochloride salt (1). The major advantages include (i) use of a single solvent, (ii) >90% conversion in each step, (iii) a cost-effective and operationally friendly process, (iv) averting the formation of genotoxic impurities, and (v) improved overall yield (≥79%) provided by the one-pot operation. For the first time, we report the characterization data of API 1, intermediates 34, and 5, and also a possible impurity (5a).

Process for making piperidinone carboxamide indane and azainane derivatives, which are CGRP receptor antagonists useful for the treatment of migraine. This class of compounds is described in U.S. Patent Application Nos. 13/293,166 filed November 10, 2011 , 13/293, 177 filed November 10, 2011 and 13/293,186 filed November 10, 2011, and PCT International Application Nos. PCT/US11/60081 filed November 10, 2011 and PCT/US 11/60083 filed November 10, 2011.

CGRP (Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide) is a naturally occurring 37-amino acid peptide that is generated by tissue-specific alternate processing of calcitonin messehger RNA and is widely distributed in the central and peripheral nervous system. CGRP is localized predominantly in sensory afferent and central neurons and mediates several biological actions, including vasodilation. CGRP is expressed in alpha- and beta-forms that vary by one and three amino acids in the rat and human, respectively. CGRP-alpha and CGRP-beta display similar biological properties. When released from the cell, CGRP initiates its biological responses by binding to specific cell surface receptors that are predominantly coupled to the activation of adenylyl cyclase. CGRP receptors have been identified and pharmacologically evaluated in several tissues and cells, including those of brain, cardiovascular, endothelial, and smooth muscle origin.

Based on pharmacological properties, these receptors are divided into at least two subtypes, denoted CGRPi and CGRP2. Human oc-CGRP-(8-37), a fragment of CGRP that lacks seven N-terminal amino acid residues, is a selective antagonist of CGRP l, whereas the linear analogue of CGRP, diacetoamido methyl cysteine CGRP ([Cys(ACM)2,7]CGRP), is a selective agonist of CGRP2. CGRP is a potent neuromodulator that has been implicated in the pathology of cerebrovascular disorders such as migraine and cluster headache. In clinical studies, elevated levels of CGRP in the jugular vein were found to occur during migraine attacks (Goadsby et al., Ann. Neurol., 1990, 28, 183-187), salivary levels of CGRP are elevated in migraine subjects between attacks (Bellamy et al., Headache, 2006, 46, 24-33), and CGRP itself has been shown to trigger migrainous headache (Lassen et al., Cephalalgia, 2002, 22, 54-61). In clinical trials, the CGRP antagonist BIBN4096BS has been shown to be effective in treating acute attacks of migraine (Olesen et al., New Engl. J. Med., 2004, 350, 1104-1110) and was able to prevent headache induced by CGRP infusion in a control group (Petersen et al., Clin. Pharmacol. Ther., 2005, 77, 202-213).

CGRP-mediated activation of the trigeminovascular system may play a key role in migraine pathogenesis. Additionally, CGRP activates receptors on the smooth muscle of intracranial vessels, leading to increased vasodilation, which is thought to contribute to headache pain during migraine attacks (Lance, Headache Pathogenesis: Monoamines, Neuropeptides, Purines and Nitric Oxide, Lippincott-Raven Publishers, 1997, 3-9). The middle meningeal artery, the principle artery in the dura mater, is innervated by sensory fibers from the trigeminal ganglion which contain several neuropeptides, including CGRP. Trigeminal ganglion stimulation in the cat resulted in increased levels of CGRP, and in humans, activation of the trigeminal system caused facial flushing and increased levels of CGRP in the external jugular vein (Goadsby et al, Ann. Neurol., 1988, 23, 193-196). Electrical stimulation of the dura mater in rats increased the diameter of the middle meningeal artery, an effect that was blocked by prior administration of CGRP(8-37), a peptide CGRP antagonist (Williamson et al., Cephalalgia, 1997, 17, 525-531). Trigeminal ganglion stimulation increased facial blood flow in the rat, which was inhibited by CGRP(8-37) (Escott et al., Brain Res. 1995, 669, 93-99). Electrical stimulation of the trigeminal ganglion in marmoset produced an increase in facial blood flow that could be blocked by the non-peptide CGRP antagonist BIBN4096BS (Doods et al., Br. J.Pharmacol., 2000, 129, 420-423). Thus the vascular effects of CGRP may be attenuated, prevented or reversed by a CGRP antagonist.

CGRP-mediated vasodilation of rat middle meningeal artery was shown to sensitize neurons of the trigeminal nucleus caudalis (Williamson et al., The CGRP Family: Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP), Amylin, and Adrenomedullin, Landes Bioscience, 2000, 245-247). Similarly, distention of dural blood vessels during migraine headache may sensitize trigeminal neurons. Some of the associated symptoms of migraine, including extracranial pain and facial allodynia, may be the result of sensitized trigeminal neurons (Burstein et al., Ann. Neurol. 2000, 47, 614-624). A CGRP antagonist may be beneficial in attenuating, preventing or reversing the effects of neuronal sensitization.

The ability of the compounds to act as CGRP antagonists makes them useful pharmacological agents for disorders that involve CGRP in humans and animals, but particularly in humans. Such disorders include migraine and cluster headache (Doods, Curr Opin Inves Drugs, 2001, 2 (9), 1261-1268; Edvinsson et al., Cephalalgia, 1994, 14, 320-327); chronic tension type headache (Ashina et al., Neurology, 2000, 14, 1335-1340); pain (Yu et al., Eur. J. Pharm., 1998, 347, 275-282); chronic pain (Hulsebosch et al., Pain, 2000, 86, 163-175);neurogenic inflammation and inflammatory pain (Holzer, Neurosci., 1988, 24, 739-768; Delay-Goyet et al., Acta Physiol. Scanda. 1992, 146, 537-538; Salmon et al., Nature Neurosci., 2001, 4(4), 357-358); eye pain (May et al. Cephalalgia, 2002, 22, 195-196), tooth pain (Awawdeh et al., Int. Endocrin. J., 2002, 35, 30-36), non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (Molina et al., Diabetes, 1990, 39, 260-265); vascular disorders; inflammation (Zhang et al, Pain, 2001, 89, 265), arthritis, bronchial hyperreactivity, asthma, (Foster et al., Ann.

Neurosci., 1996, 16 (7), 2342-2351); hot flashes in men and women (Chen et al., Lancet, 1993, 342, 49; Spetz et al., J. Urology, 2001, 166, 1720-1723); allergic dermatitis (Wallengren, Contact Dermatitis, 2000, 43 (3), 137-143); psoriasis; encephalitis, brain trauma, ischaemia, stroke, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases (Rohrenbeck et al., Neurobiol. of Disease 1999, 6, 15-34); skin diseases (Geppetti and Holzer, Eds., Neurogenic Inflammation, 1996, CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL), neurogenic cutaneous redness, skin rosaceousness and erythema; tinnitus (Herzog et al., J. Membrane Biology, 2002, 189(3), 225); inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, (Hoffman et al. Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology,2002, 37(4) 414-422) and cystitis. Of particular importance is the acute or prophylactic treatment of headache, including migraine and cluster headache.

Ubrogepant (MK-1602), an oral calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antagonist, is in phase III clinical development at Allergan for the acute treatment of migraine attacks.

In August 2015, the product was licensed to Allergan by Merck, for the development and marketing worldwide for the treatment of migraine.

The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with hexanes initially, then grading to 100% EtOAc before stepping to 5% MeOH in EtOAc to afford the title compound as an amorphous solid, which was further purified by the following crystallization procedure. A solution of the amorphous product in a minimal amount of methanol required for dissolution was diluted with 10 volumes water, and the resulting slurry was seeded with crystalline product and stirred at 23 °C for 4 h. The solids were filtered, washed with water, and dried under a stream of nitrogen to give the title compound as a crystalline solid.

Abstract

Abstract Image

The development of a scalable asymmetric route to a new calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist is described. The synthesis of the two key fragments was redefined, and the intermediates were accessed through novel chemistry. Chiral lactam 2 was prepared by an enzyme mediated dynamic kinetic transamination which simultaneously set two stereocenters. Enzyme evolution resulted in an optimized transaminase providing the desired configuration in >60:1 syn/anti. The final chiral center was set via a crystallization induced diastereomeric transformation. The asymmetric spirocyclization to form the second fragment, chiral spiro acid intermediate 3, was catalyzed by a novel doubly quaternized phase transfer catalyst and provided optically pure material on isolation. With the two fragments in hand, development of their final union by amide bond formation and subsequent direct isolation is described. The described chemistry has been used to deliver over 100 kg of our desired target, ubrogepant.

Vemurafenib (INN, marketed as Zelboraf) is a B-Raf enzyme inhibitor developed by Plexxikon (now part of Daiichi-Sankyo) and Genentech for the treatment of late-stage melanoma.[1] The name “vemurafenib” comes from V600E mutated BRAF inhibition.

Approvals

Vemurafenib received FDA approval for the treatment of late-stage melanoma on August 17, 2011,[2] making it the first drug designed using fragment-based lead discovery to gain regulatory approval.[3]

Vemurafenib later received Health Canada approval on February 15, 2012.[4]

On February 20, 2012, the European Commission approved vemurafenib as a monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with BRAF V600E mutation positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma, the most aggressive form of skin cancer.[5]

Mechanism of action

Vemurafenib causes programmed cell death in melanoma cell lines.[6] Vemurafenib interrupts the B-Raf/MEK step on the B-Raf/MEK/ERK pathway − if the B-Raf has the common V600E mutation.

Vemurafenib only works in melanoma patients whose cancer has a V600E BRAF mutation (that is, at amino acid position number 600 on the B-Raf protein, the normal valine is replaced by glutamic acid).[7] About 60% of melanomas have this mutation. It also has efficacy against the rarer BRAF V600K mutation. Melanoma cells without these mutations are not inhibited by vemurafenib; the drug paradoxically stimulates normal BRAF and may promote tumor growth in such cases.[8][9]

Resistance

Three mechanisms of resistance to vemurafenib (covering 40% of cases) have been discovered:

Clinical trials

In a phase I clinical study, vemurafenib (then known as PLX4032) was able to reduce numbers of cancer cells in over half of a group of 16 patients with advanced melanoma. The treated group had a median increased survival time of 6 months over the control group.[13][14][15][16]

A second phase I study, in patients with a V600E mutation in B-Raf, ~80% showed partial to complete regression. The regression lasted from 2 to 18 months.[17]

In early 2010 a Phase I trial[18] for solid tumors (including colorectal cancer), and a phase II study (for metastatic melanoma) were ongoing.[19]

A phase III trial (vs dacarbazine) in patients with previously untreated metastatic melanoma showed an improved rates of overall and progression-free survival.[20]

In June 2011, positive results were reported from the phase III BRIM3 BRAF-mutation melanoma study.[21] The BRIM3 trial reported good updated results in 2012.[22]

Further trials are planned including a trial of vemurafenib co-administered with GDC-0973 (cobimetinib), a MEK-inhibitor.[21] After good results in 2014 the combination was submitted to the EC and FDA for marketing approval.[23]

In January 2015 trial results compared vemurafenib with the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib for metastatic melanoma.[24]

Side effects

At the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 960 mg twice a day 31% of patients get skin lesions that may need surgical removal.[1] The BRIM-2 trial investigated 132 patients; the most common adverse events were arthralgia in 58% of patients, skin rash in 52%, and photosensitivity in 52%. In order to better manage side effects some form of dose modification was necessary in 45% of patients. The median daily dose was 1750 mg, 91% of the MTD.[25]

A trial combining vemurafenib and ipilimumab was stopped in April 2013 because of signs of liver toxicity.[26]

Solosec (secnidazole) ; Symbiomix Therapeutics; For the treatment of bacterial vaginosis , Approved September 2017

Company: Symbiomix Therapeutics

Approval Status: Approved FDA September 2017

Specific Treatments: bacterial vaginosis

Therapeutic Areas Obstetrics/Gynecology (Women’s Health)

Infections and Infectious Diseases

 

Secnidazole is a second-generation 5-nitroimidazole antimicrobial that is structurally related to other 5-nitroimidazoles including Metronidazole and Tinidazole, but displays improved oral absorption and longer terminal elimination half-life than antimicrobial agents in this class [1]. Secnidazole is selective against many anaerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and protozoa. In September 2017, FDA granted approval to secnidazole under the market name Solosec as a single-dose oral treatment for bacterial vaginosis, which is a common vaginal infection in women aged 15 to 44 years. The antimicrobial therapy is only intended to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria [FDA Label].

Secnidazole (trade names FlagentylSindoseSecnil) is a nitroimidazole anti-infective. Effectiveness in the treatment of dientamoebiasis has been reported.[1] It has also been tested against Atopobium vaginae.[2]

Mechanism of Action

Solosec (secnidazole) is a 5-nitroimidazole antimicrobial. 5-nitroimidazoles enter the bacterial cell as an inactive prodrug where the nitro group is reduced by bacterial enzymes to radical anions. It is believed that these radical anions interfere with bacterial DNA synthesis of susceptible isolates.

DE 2107405; FR 2079880; GB 1278757; JP 49080066

The condensation of (I) with propylene oxide (A) in ethanol at 20 C gives 1-(2-hydroxypropyl)-2-methylimidazole (III), which is acetylated with acetyl chloride in refluxing acetonitrile yielding the corresponding acetate (IV). The nitration of (IV) by means of HNO3 and P2O5 affords 1-(2-acetoxypropyl)-2-methyl-4-nitroimidazole (V), which is finally hydrolyzed with 4N HCl at 90 C

CH 513177; DE 2107423; FR 2079879; GB 1278758; NL 7101641

The reaction of (I) with chloroacetone (C) by means of K2CO3 in refluxing acetone gives (2-methylimidazol-1-yl)acetone (VI), which is nitrated with HNO3 and P2O5 affording the corresponding nitro compound (VII). Finally, this product is reduced with NaBH4 in methanol at room temperature.

Drugs Fut 1979,4(4),280, Arzneim-Forsch Drug Res 1966,16(1),23-29

The nitration of (I) with HNO3 and H2SO4 gives 2-methyl-4(5)-nitroimidazole (II), which is then condensed with refluxing 1-chloroisopropanol (B) or with propylene oxide in 85% formic acid (A).

FDA approves new treatment for adults with mantle cell lymphoma

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today granted accelerated approval to Calquence (acalabrutinib) for the treatment of adults with mantle cell lymphoma who have received at least one prior therapy.

“Mantle cell lymphoma is a particularly aggressive cancer,” said Richard Pazdur, M.D., director of the FDA’s Oncology Center of Excellence and acting director of the Office of Hematology and Oncology Products in the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. “For patients who have not responded to treatment or have relapsed, Calquence provides a new treatment option that has shown high rates of response for some patients in initial studies.” Continue reading.
