Definitions
- non-opioid analgesics e.g., acetaminophen
- NSAIDs non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
- opioid analgesics e.g., aspirin
- co-analgesics co-analgesics.
- Sodium channel blockers have been shown to be useful in the treatment of pain, including acute, chronic, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain (see, e.g., Wood, J.N., el al., J. Neurobiol (2004), 61(1), 55-71). Preclinical evidence demonstrates that sodium channel blockers can suppress neuronal firing in peripheral and central sensory neurons, and it is via this mechanism that they are considered to be useful for relieving pain.

- Example 1 Acetic Acid Induced Mouse Model of Visceral Pain
- the acetic acid test was performed to assess the potential efficacy of Compound A in the acetic acid writhing (AAW) model of inflammatory pain.
- the AAW test was performed as described previously (Yeping Bi et ak, “Visceral hyperalgesia induced by forebrain-specific suppression of native Kv7/KCNQ/M-current in mice. ” Mol. Pain 2011, 7:84; Gabriela F.
- Pavao-de-Souza et ah “Acetic acid- and phenyl-p-benzoquinone-induced overt pain-like behavior depends on spinal activation of MAP kinases, PI3K and microglia in mice ” Pharmacol. Biochem. Behav. 101 (2012) 320-328; Kazufumi Hirano et ah, “Kv7.2- 7.5 voltage-gated potassium channel (KCNQ2-5) opener, retigabine, reduces capsaicin- induced visceral pain in mice.” Neurosci. Lett. 413 (2007) 159-162; Mosad A.
- acetic acid was injected intraperitoneally at 0.4% concentration in 6-7 week old CD1 mice. After the injection of acetic acid, animals were placed in a chamber and their subsequent writhing behavior was video recorded. A writhe is defined as contraction of abdominal muscles accompanied by elongation of the body and extension of hind limbs or rotation of the trunk. Writhes were counted between 5-15 min after the injection of acetic acid. [0079] Selection of Acetic Acid Dose: Based on the concentration response (0.2-0.8%) of acetic acid in CD1 mice, EC75 concentration (0.4%) was selected to produce optimal writhing response. Diclofenac was used as positive control in the acetic acid model.
- the first study shows a dose-responsive decrease in the number of nociceptive events was observed through the dose groups (vehicle, 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, and 10 mg/kg Compound A).
- the second study shows a decrease in the number of nociceptive events at 10 mg/kg Compound A.
- a PK/PD correlation was shown between Compound A concentrations in brain and plasma to the observed efficacy (FIG.l, PK/PD Correlation).
- the EC 50 (effective concentration to give a 50% reduction in nociceptive events) was 0.25 mM and 0.4 mM in plasma and brain respectively.
- Dosing For efficacy testing, Compound A was dosed orally once a day for 5 consecutive days from Day 14-18. Animals were evaluated again for tactile and thermal allodynia on Day 14 and Day 18 two hours after the administration of Compound A. Morphine was used as positive control. Table 3 shows the body weight of the rats over the duration of testing.
- Results Tables 4-5 and FIG. 3 show the results of the tactile allodynia von Frey evaluation on Day 14 and Day 18. Compared to morphine, neither Compound A nor retigabine had much effect on the tactile allodynia endpoint. This was not surprising for the Kv7.2 mechanism (see Blackbum-Munro and Jensen, Eur J Pharmacol, 460(2-3): 109-116 (2003)).
- Results Tables 6-7 and FIGs. 4-9 show the results of the thermal allodynia von Frey evaluation on Day 14 and Day 18.
- FIGs. 7-9 show that at both 16 and 24 mg/kg, Compound A outperformed morphine (128 mg/kg) in the thermal allodynia endpoint.
- Example 3 Crossover Study with Pharmacokinetic Analysis [0088] The pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of single doses of Compound A in healthy right-handed male human subjects were investigated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) crossover study.
- PK pharmacokinetics
- TMS transcranial magnetic stimulation
- An objective of the study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single doses of Compound A in healthy male subjects.
- Subjects were screened within 27 days prior to entering the study on Day 1. For Period 1, subjects were admitted to the study unit and dosed on Day 1, and discharged on Day 2. For Period 2, following a washout of 6 days, the same subjects were again admitted to the study unit and dosed on Day 7, and discharged on Day 8. All subjects returned to the clinical unit for an outpatient visit on Day 14, and received a follow-up telephone call on Day 37.
- PK variables included maximal plasma concentration (C max ), time of maximal plasma concentration (T max ), terminal elimination half-life (ti / 2), elimination rate constant (lz), area under the curve from 0 to 24 h (AUCo- 24h ), area under the curve from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUCo- tiast ), area under the curve from time zero to infinity (AUCo-i nf ), the percentage of AUC that is due to extrapolation from tlast to infinity (%AUC extrap ), apparent total body clearance following oral administration (CL/F), CL/F normalized by body weight, mean residence time from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (MRTi ast ), mean residence time extrapolated to infinity (MRTinf), apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase (Vz/F), and Vz/F normalized by body weight.
- C max maximal plasma concentration
- T max time of maximal plasma concentration
- T max terminal elimination half-life
- lz elimination rate constant
- PK parameters for this study were summarized in two ways. Firstly, PK parameters were calculated where possible using the PK samples collected during each 24 h sampling period for Period 1 and Period 2 separately. Secondly, PK parameters were determined using samples beyond the 24 h sampling period (i.e., from Day 7/8 and/or Day 14). For subjects who received Compound A in the first period, PK samples taken prior to placebo treatment provided additional PK timepoints at >24 h. For subjects who received Compound A in the second period, there was no >24 h PK timepoint until a Day 14 PK sample was added. Thus, subjects randomized to receive Compound A in the second period who were enrolled prior to implementation of the additional PK sample at Day 14 did not have PK data beyond 24 h.
- the full PK profile data set consists of the 16 subjects for whom PK samples were taken at >24 h post-dose. For discussion of the PK parameters below, the full PK profile data set was generally used, because it allowed more accurate estimation of PK parameters.
- the mean ⁇ SD plasma concentrations were 15.9 ⁇ 21.4 ng/mL, 30.2 ⁇ 21.1 ng/mL and 42.1 ⁇ 19.1 ng/mL, respectively.
- Vz/F mean normalized volume of distribution
- Compound A was slowly absorbed after a 20 mg oral dose with median peak plasma concentrations occurring approximately 8 hours after administration. Upon absorption, it distributed out of plasma into surrounding tissues and was slowly cleared from systemic circulation at rates well below hepatic blood flow, indicating minimal hepatic extraction (metabolism). It exhibited a mean half-life of 127 h (range 48.2-306 h) and mean residence time of 102 h (range 33-304 h) which may be an underestimation since a number of subjects had %AUC extrap values above 20% and as high as 40%.
