Definitions
- the invention is in the field of the treatment of androgen-insufficiency related disorders, by the inducement into a human being of an adequate level of testosterone.
- the invention particularly pertains to a method of treatment in which a desired level of testosterone is induced by the administration of a medicament or, otherwise, to the manufacture of a medicament in such a treatment, wherein the medicament is a pharmaceutical formulation in the form of an oily solution for injection comprising testosterone decanoate dissolved in a pharmaceutically acceptable oily medium.
- Testosterone decanoate has been known as a potential therapeutic compound administered in animal trials since the thirties of the 20 th century. Thus, in GB 465,331 (published 1937), testosterone capric acid (decanoic acid) ester is disclosed among several other testosterone esters. Other publications related to animal testing involving testosterone decanoate are Verheul et al. (1986) and Agmo et al. (1996).
- testosterone decanoate As one of several different methods of preparing certain rabbits so as to have suitable test animals for investigating the influence of dopamine on sexual behavior. Particularly, the testosterone decanoate treatment serves to provide test animals maintaining a low but stable level of sexual behaviour.
- testosterone decanoate is also known as the androgen component in studies involving the progestagen desogestrel (inter alia in Frederick C. W. Wu et al., Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism 84 (1), pp 112-122). None of these papers relate to using testosterone decanoate.
- One recent reference to testosterone decanoate is WO 97/41865, in which the compound is generally included in a broad range of summed-up esters of testosterone.
- testosterone esters of a chain length typically including decanoate are disclosed for oral administration.
- testosterone undecanoate rather than the decanoate has become available as a preparation for oral use (marketed inter alia under the tradename Andriol® in several countries).
- the compound testosterone decanoate is not entirely devoid of practical utility, as a formulation of the above-identified type, i.e.
- Sustanon®250 is an oily solution comprising four esters of testosterone, viz. testosterone propionate, testosterone phenylpropionate, testosterone isocaproate and testosterone decanoate.
- esters of testosterone viz. testosterone propionate, testosterone phenylpropionate, testosterone isocaproate and testosterone decanoate.
- esters having a different pharmacokinetic profile, all of them have been considered essential for obtaining both a rapid onset (the smaller esters) and a long duration of action (the decanoate).
- Testosterone decanoate being a compound which in effect serves to administer the male hormone testosterone
- the formulation of the invention can be used in the treatment of androgen-insufficiency related disorders.
- the term "androgen insufficiency" is to be understood to pertain to all kinds of diseases, disorders, and symptoms in which a male or a female suffers from too low a testosterone level, such as in hypogonadal men.
- the androgen insufficiency to be treated by the formulation of the invention is the reduction of the testosterone level which a human male incurs as a result of age (the formulation of the invention is then used for male hormone replacement therapy), or when he is subject to male contraception.
- the formulation of the invention especially serves to neutralize the effect of regimens of male hormone contraception in which a sterilitant such as a progestagen or LHRH (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone) is administered regularly, e.g. daily, or it is used as the sole male contraceptive substance.
- a sterilitant such as a progestagen or LHRH (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone) is administered regularly, e.g. daily, or it is used as the sole male contraceptive substance.
- the formulation of the invention can be prepared by dissolving testosterone in a suitable amount of an oily medium, such as arachis oil, oleic acid, castor oil, and the like, including mixtures of oils.
- an oily medium such as arachis oil, oleic acid, castor oil, and the like, including mixtures of oils.
- the amount of testosterone that can be dissolved differs per chosen medium, but will generally be within the range of from 100-400 mg/ml.
- the preferred oil is castor oil. Not only does this lead to a favorable overall stability (no or little crystallization and no re-esterification of testosterone), it particularly has an unexpectedly good release profile, with burst staying within the therapeutic window. Moreover it displays a good solubility of testosterone decanoate, the concentration thereof preferably being up to 200 mg/ml.
- Additives common to injection fluids can be added to the solution if desired. Suitable additives are known to the person skilled in the art. Possible additives include liquids that serve to lower the viscosity of the fomulation, e.g. benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, or benzyl propionate. Because of the way of administration, through injection, it is preferred to have as few additives in the solution as possible. This is customary in the art of making injection fluids, and does not require elucidation here.
- the invention also pertains to the use of testosterone decanoate for the manufacture of a medicine in the treatment of androgen-insufficiency disorders wherein testosterone decanoate is the sole androgen.
- testosterone decanoate as the sole androgen, can be used advantageously in male contraception. This is notably so in a contraceptive regimen wherein the progestagen etonogestrel is employed to provide azoospermia, and testosterone decanoate is used to provide the required androgen supplementation.
- This combination of progestagen and androgen provides a relatively rapid onset of azoospermic effect, and provides a steady level of testosterone.
- azoospermia is considered to be found if 90% or more of the men receiving treatment exhibit azoospermia.
- testosterone levels After intramuscular administration, testosterone levels will increase rapidly to high normal levels, with a peak (ca. 20-30 nmol/L) during the first few days. This comes as a surprise in view of what is known from Sustanon®250, namely that testosterone decanoate serves to attain prolonger duration of action, while the three shorter-chained esters serve to shift the onset of action to an earlier point in time.
- Sustanon®250 namely that testosterone decanoate serves to attain prolonger duration of action, while the three shorter-chained esters serve to shift the onset of action to an earlier point in time.
- the testosterone levels after the first few days, the testosterone levels will gradually decline to low physiological levels (ca. 12 nmol/L) after four or eight weeks, depending on the dose.
- the invention further pertains to a method of treatment of androgen-insufficiency disorders, comprising administering to a human, notably a human male, in need thereof an effective amount of an androgen, wherein the sole androgen administered is testosterone decanoate.
- the method is particularly well-suited to treat androgen-insufficiency which occurs as a result of deliberate progestagen-induced azoospermia (male contraception), notably when the progestagen is etonogestrel.
- a preferred male contraceptive regimen is provided for by a kit (a drug delivery system) comprising a formulation of testosterone decanoate as described above, and etonogestrel in the form of oral daily tablets having a strength of 150 - 600 ⁇ g etonogestrel, preferably 150-300 ⁇ g.
- the etonogestrel is administered by means of one or more subcutaneous implants to release 40 to 200 ⁇ g etonogestrel per day, preferably 120 to 180 ⁇ g.
- Comparable implants are known from female contraception, e.g., under the name of Implanon®. For the manufacture of such implants, reference is made to EP 303 306.
- the dose in men will be approximately four and two times as high as that for desogestrel in the female OCs Cerazette® (75 ⁇ g desogestrel) and Marvelon® (150 ⁇ g desogestrel) respectively.
- etonogestrel implants preferably three times the release of progestagen is used as compared to the amounts administered to women, viz. three Implanon® 4 cm implants. More preferably two implants are used, each having 1 ,5 times the length of Implanon, or one single implant of more restricted length (e.g. 4-5 cm) providing a higher release.
- the implants are intended to be applied and removed yearly, although a longer action is not excluded.
- the androgenic component of the regimen according to the invention is preferably an injection of 300 mg to 700 mg, and preferably 400 to 600 mg testosterone decanoate given once per four weeks to eight weeks, and preferably once per six weeks. It is most preferred to give 600 mg once per six weeks, or 400 mg per four weeks.
- formulations can be provided which contain additives so as to provide a reduced and more prolonged level of testosterone (e.g. 800 to 1000 mg per 12 weeks using, e.g. a substantial amount of additive, such as 50% by weight of benzyl benzoate). This is formulation practice well-known to the skilled person.
- the drug delivery system according to the invention will preferably contain appropriate instructions as to the regimen of administration to be used in the provided method of treatment.
- azoospermia can be achieved well within 24 weeks, or even in a duration comparable to that in the case of vasectomy, which generally is 12-16 weeks.
- Solutions of 200 mg/ml testosterone decanoate in castor oil are prepared by dissolving 1000 g of testosterone decanoate in about 3,5 L of the solvent at
- testosterone levels are measured at regular intervals for a period of 50 days. The results show a rapid onset of action in that an average therapeutic level of testosterone of 25 nmol/l is reached within 1.5 day (mean value), peak level is reached within 5 days, and a therapeutic level of more than 10 nmol/l is seen up to 30 days.
- testosterone levels are measured at regular intervals for a period of 50 days. The results show a rapid onset of action in that an average therapeutic level of testosterone of 25 nmol/l is reached within 2 days peak level is reached within 8 days, and a therapeutic level of more than 10 nmol/l is seen up to 42 days (all mean values).
