Description
WO 00/27434 PCT/GB99/03755 COMBINATIONS COMPRISING A BETA-AGONIST AND A FURTHER ANTIDIABETIC AGENT This invention relates to a method of treatment, in particular to a method for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, especially non-insulin dependent diabetes 5 (NIDDM) or Type 2 diabetes and conditions associated with diabetes mellitus and to compositions for use in such method. Alpha glucosidase inhibitor antihyperglycaemic agents (or alpha glucosidase inhibitors) and biguanide antihyperglycaemic agents (or biguanides) are commonly used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. Acarbose, voglibose, emiglitate 10 and miglitol are examples of alpha glucosidase inhibitors. 1,1 - Dimethylbiguanidine (or metformin) is a particular example of a biguanide. Insulin secretagogues are compounds that promote increased secretion of insulin by the pancreatic beta cells. The sulphonylureas are well known examples of insulin secretagogues. The sulphonylureas act as hypoglycaemic agents and are used 15 in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. Examples of sulphonylureas include glibenclamide (or glyburide), glipizide, gliclazide, glimepiride, tolazamide and tolbutamide. European Patent Application, Publication Number 0,306,228 relates to certain thiazolidinedione derivatives disclosed as having antihyperglycaemic and 20 hypolipidaemic activity. One particular thiazolidinedione disclosed in EP 0306228 is 5-[4-[2-(N-methyl-N-(2-pyridyl)amino)ethoxy]benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione (hereinafter 'Compound (I)'). WO94/05659 discloses certain salts of Compound (I) including the maleate salt at example 1 thereof. Compound (I) is an example of a class of anti-hyperglycaemic agents known 25 as 'insulin sensitisers'. In particular Compound (1) is a thiazolidinedione insulin sensitiser. Compound (I) is also a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARy) agonist insulin sensitiser. European Patent Applications, Publication Numbers: 0008203, 0139421, 0032128, 0428312, 0489663, 0155845, 0257781, 0208420, 0177353, 0319189, 30 0332331, 0332332, 0528734, 0508740; International Patent Application, Publication Numbers 92/18501, 93/02079, 93/22445 and United States Patent Numbers 5104888 and 5478852, also disclose certain thiazolidinedione insulin sensitisers. Another series of compounds generally recognised as having insulin sensitiser activity are those typified by the compounds disclosed in International 35 Patent Applications, Publication Numbers W093/21166 and W094/01420. These compounds are herein referred to as 'acyclic insulin sensitisers'. Other examples of acyclic insulin sensitisers are those disclosed in United States Patent Number 5232945 and International Patent Applications, Publication Numbers W092/03425 and W091/19702. 40 Examples of other insulin sensitisers are those disclosed in European Patent Application, Publication Number 0533933, Japanese Patent Application Publication Number 05271204 and United States Patent Number 5264451. -1- WO 00/27434 PCT/GB99/03755 International Patent Application, Publication Number W097/25311 and European patent application publicaiton number EP0882707A1 relate to certain ethanolarnine derivatives of formula (I): OR H R ~ ~~N *2 r R 6

The compounds of WO97/25311 and EP0882707A1 are stated to have beta 3 adrenoreceptor agonist activity and are disclosed as being useful for the treatment and prevention of diabetes, hyperlipidaemia and obesity. The above mentioned publications are incorporated herein by reference. 25 It is now indicated that the beta 3 adrenoceptor agonist compounds of W097/25311 and EP0882707A1 in combination with other antidabetic agents provide a particularly beneficial effect on glycaemic control and that such combination is therefore suggested to be particularly useful for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, especially Type 2 diabetes and conditions associated with 30 diabetes mellitus. Such combinations will provide improved blood glucose regulation without introducing unacceptable side-effects. In particular, combination of the beta 3-adrenoceptor agonist with other antidiabetic agents (especially sulphonylureas, insulin sensitisers or insulin) is expected to ameliorate the body 35 weight increasing effects of the other antidiabetic agents. Moreover, it is considered that the beneficial thermogenic effects of the beta-3 agonist will be enhanced in the combination. Thus for example the weight reducing effects of the beta-3 agonist are expected to be enhanced. -2- WO 00/27434 PCT/GB99/03755 Accordingly, the invention provides a method for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, especially Type 2 diabetes and conditions associated with diabetes mellitus in a mammal such as a human, which method comprises administering an effective, non-toxic and pharmaceutically acceptable amount of a beta agonist and another 5 antidiabetic agent, to a mammal in need thereof. In another aspect the invention provides a beta agonist and another antidiabetic agent, for use in a method for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, especially Type 2 diabetes and conditions associated with diabetes mellitus. The method comprises either co-administration of a beta agonist and 10 another antidiabetic agent or the sequential administration thereof. Co-administration includes administration of a formulation which includes both a beta agonist and the other antidiabetic agent or the essentially simultaneous administration of separate formulations of each agent. In another aspect the invention provides the use of a beta agonist and 15 another antidiabetic agent for use in the manufacture of a composition for the treatment of obesity, diabetes mellitus, especially Type 2 diabetes and conditions associated with diabetes mellitus. Suitably, the other antidiabetic agent is selected from an alpha glucosidase inhibitor, a biguanide, an insulin secretagogue or an insulin sensitiser. 20 A further suitable antidiabetic agent is insulin. A suitable alpha glucosidase inhibitor is acarbose. Other suitable alpha glucosidase inhibitors are emiglitate and miglitol. A further suitable alpha glucosidase inhibitor is voglibose. Suitable biguanides include metformin, buformin or phenformin, especially 25 metformin. Suitable insulin secretagogues include sulphonylureas. Suitable sulphonylureas include glibenclamide, glipizide, gliclazide, glimepiride, tolazamide and tolbutamide.

When used herein the term 'conditions associated with diabetes'includes those conditions associated with the pre-diabetic state, conditions associated with 35 diabetes mellitus itself and complications associated with diabetes mellitus. When used herein the term 'conditions associated with the pre-diabetic state' includes conditions such as insulin resistance, including hereditary insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance and hyperinsulinaemia. 'Conditions associated with diabetes mellitus itself'include hyperglycaemia, 40 insulin resistance, including acquired insulin resistance and obesity. Further conditions associated with diabetes mellitus itself include hypertension and cardiovascular disease, especially atherosclerosis and conditions associated with -9- WO 00/27434 PCT/GB99/03755 insulin resistance. Conditions associated with insulin resistance include polycystic ovarian syndrome and steroid induced insulin resistance and gestational diabetes. 'Complications associated with diabetes mellitus'includes renal disease, especially renal disease associated with Type 2 diabetes, neuropathy and retinopathy. 5 Renal diseases associated with Type 2 diabetes include nephropathy, glomerulonephritis, glomerular sclerosis, nephrotic syndrome, hypertensive nephrosclerosis and end stage renal disease. As used herein the term 'pharmaceutically acceptable'embraces both human and veterinary use: for example the term 'pharmaceutically acceptable'embraces a 10 veterinarily acceptable compound. Diabetes mellitus is preferably Type 2 diabetes. Suitably, the particularly beneficial effect on glycaemic control provided by the treatment of the invention is an improved therapeutic ratio for the combination of the invention relative to the therapeutic ratio for one compound of the combination 15 when used alone and at a dose providing an equivalent efficacy to the combination of the invention. In a preferred aspect, the particularly beneficial effect on glycaemic control provided by the treatment of the invention is indicated to be a synergistic effect relative to the control expected from the effects of the individual active agents. 20 In a further aspect of the invention, combining doses of the beta agonist and the other agent will produce a greater beneficial effect than can be achieved for either agent alone at a dose twice that used for that agent in the combination. Glycaemic control may be characterised using conventional methods, for example by measurement of a typically used index of glycaemic control such as 25 fasting plasma glucose or glycosylated haemoglobin (Hb Alc). Such indices are determined using standard methodology, for example those described in: Tuescher A, Richterich, P., Schweiz. med. Wschr. 101 (1971), 345 and 390 and Frank P., Monitoring the Diabetic Patent with Glycosolated Hemoglobin Measurements, Clinical Products 1988. 30 In a preferred aspect, the dosage level of each of the active agents when used in accordance with the treatment of the invention will be less than would have been required from a purely additive effect upon glycaemic control. It is also considered that the treatment of the invention will effect an improvement, relative to the individual agents, in the levels of advanced 35 glycosylation end products (AGEs), and serum lipids including total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol including improvements in the ratios thereof, in particular an improvement in serum lipids including total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol including improvements in the ratios thereof. As indicated above it is also considered that treatment with the combination 40 of the beta agonist and the other antidiabetic agents (especially sulphonylureas, insulin sensitisers or insulin) will significantly reduce, preferably remove, the body weight increasing effects of the other antidiabetic agents. -10- WO 00/27434 PCT/GB99/03755 It is also considered that the thermogenic effects of the beta-3 agonist will be enhanced in the combination treatment of the invention. Thus, for example the weight reducing effects of the beta-3 agonist will be enhanced in the combination treatment of the invention. 5 In the treatment of the invention, the active medicaments are preferably administered in pharmaceutical composition form. As indicated above, such compositions can include both medicaments or one only of the medicaments.
