Centre for Reviews and Dissemination Efficacy of 5-HT3 antagonists and 5-HT4 agonists in irritable bowel syndrome: systematic review and meta-analysis Ford AC, Brandt LJ, Young C, Chey WD, Foxx-Orenstein AE, Moayyedi P CRD summary The authors concluded that alosetron, cilansetron and tegaserod (drugs acting on 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors) were all effective in irritable bowel syndrome; serious adverse events were rare in trials included in this review. This was generally a well-conducted review and the authors’ conclusions are likely to be reliable. Authors' objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonists and 5-hydroxytryptamine4 (5-HT4) agonists in adults with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Searching MEDLINE (from 1950), EMBASE (from 1980) and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched to June 2008 for studies in any language. Search terms were reported. Reference lists of identified studies were screened and abstract books of conference proceedings (2001 to 2007) were hand-searched. In addition, pharmaceutical companies were contacted and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website was searched for unpublished studies. Study selection Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that compared 5-HT3 antagonists or 5-HT4 agonists with placebo in adults (aged over 16 years) with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) were eligible for inclusion. Treatment had to last at least seven days, as did follow-up. IBS could be diagnosed using physician opinion or symptom-based diagnostic criteria, with investigations to exclude organic disease if required. Studies had to report a global assessment of IBS symptoms cure or improvement or abdominal pain cure or improvement after completion of treatment (the primary review outcomes); patient self-reports were preferred. Secondary review outcomes were efficacy of individual agents, efficacy of various subgroups and adverse events. The included trials evaluated: 5-HT3 antagonists (alosetron 0.1 to 8mg twice daily or cilansetron - reported as 3mg twice daily in text, but 2mg three times daily in trial characteristics table); 5-HT4 agonists (tegaserod 0.5 to 12mg twice daily); and mixed 5-HT3 antagonist/5-HT4 agonists (cisapride 5 to 10mg thrice daily or renzapride 1 to 4mg daily). In most included trials, females predominated. The majority of patients had diarrhoea-dominated IBS in 5-HT3 antagonist trials and constipation-dominated IBS in 5-HT4 agonist and mixed 5-HT3 antagonist/5-HT4 agonists trials. All of the included trials used Rome criteria (unspecified or I or II criteria) to diagnose IBS. Treatment duration ranged from 11 days up to 48 weeks, but treatment duration was 12 weeks in most trials. Abstracts were screened by one reviewer. Two reviewers then independently selected studies from those identified. Disagreements were resolved by consensus. Assessment of study quality Two reviewers independently assessed validity using the Jadad criteria (randomisation, blinding and withdrawals). Data extraction Two reviewers independently extracted intention-to-treat (ITT) data as dichotomous outcomes using a spreadsheet to calculate relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for persistence of symptoms (global IBS symptoms or abdominal pain). Drop-outs were assumed to be treatment failures. Some authors were contacted for clarification and additional data. Methods of synthesis Pooled relative risks and 95% confidence intervals for the persistence of symptoms and adverse events were calculated Page: 1 / 3 using a random-effects model. Numbers-needed-to-treat (NNT) or numbers-needed-to-harm (NNH) with 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I 2 statistic (values less than 25% were considered to indicate a low level of heterogeneity). Subgroup analysis was used to examine the influence of IBS subtype, gender, dose and treatment duration. The possibility of publication bias was explored using funnel plots and Egger’s test. Results of the review Twenty-nine double-blind RCTs were included (n=17,818 patients). Twenty-seven trials scored 4 or 5 on the Jadad quality scale. 5-HT3 antagonists (11 trials; 7,216 patients): Eight studies evaluated alosetron (n=4,987 patients) and three evaluated cilansetron (n=2,229 patients). 5-HT3 antagonists were associated with a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of patients with persistent symptoms compared with placebo (RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.71 to 0.86; NNT 7, 95% CI 5 to 11). Significant heterogeneity was found (I2=80%). There was no evidence of publication bias. The association remained significant with both alosetron (RR 0.79, 95% CI 0.69 to 0.90; I2=85%) and cilansetron (RR 0.75, 95% CI 0.69 to 0.82; I2=30%). Adverse events were significantly increased with alosetron compared with placebo (64% versus 55%; RR 1.19, 95% CI 1.09 to 1.30; NNH 10, 95% CI 7 to 15; seven studies). There was no significant difference in serious adverse events between alosetron and placebo. Four patients developed ischaemic colitis. None of the cilansetron studies reported adverse events. 5-HT4 agonists (11 trials of tegaserod, 9,242 patients): 5-HT4 agonists were associated with a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of patients with persistent symptoms compared with placebo (55% versus 63.5%; RR 0.85, 95% CI 0.80 to 0.90; NNT 10, 95% CI 8 to 14). Significant heterogeneity was found (I2=57%). There was evidence of publication bias (asymmetrical funnel plot and Egger’s test p=0.04). There was no significant difference in adverse events between tegaserod and placebo. Two cardiovascular events were reported with tegaserod. Mixed 5-HT3 antagonists/5-HT4 agonists (seven trials, 1,043 patients, including four trials of cisapride with 317 patients): There was no significant difference between mixed 5-HT3 antagonists/ 5-HT4 agonists and placebo in the proportion of patients with persisting IBS symptoms (64% versus 57%; I2=59%) for cisapride and renzapride whether combined or compared separately with placebo. There was no evidence of publication bias. Renzapride was associated with a statistically significant increase in diarrhoea (RR 2.17, 95% CI 1.26 to 3.74; three trials). There was no significant difference in adverse events between cisapride and placebo (three studies). Results of other sub-group analyses were also reported. Authors' conclusions Alosetron, cilansetron and tegaserod were all effective in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. Serious adverse events were rare in the eligible RCTs in this review. The authors stated that the US Food and Drug Administration considered that the risks of alosetron, cilansetron and tegaserod are sufficiently severe to require that their use is restricted. CRD commentary The review question was clearly stated and inclusion criteria were appropriately defined. Several relevant sources were searched and attempts were made to minimise publication and language bias. However, there was evidence of publication bias for the 5-HT4 studies, suggesting a lack of small non-significant studies. Methods were used to minimise reviewer errors and bias in the selection of studies, extraction of data and assessment of validity. Study validity was assessed and results were reported. Study details were provided and, in general, appropriate methods were used for the meta-analyses, with the use of random-effects models, assessment of heterogeneity and the conducting of various predefined subgroup analyses. However, pooling data in the presence of high heterogeneity identified for some analyses was questionable. This was generally a well-conducted review and the authors' conclusions are likely to be reliable. Page: 2 / 3 Several of the authors disclosed that they had received consultancy and/or speakers fees from various pharmaceutical companies. Implications of the review for practice and research Practice: The authors stated that since alosetron, cilansetron and tegaserod appear to have only a modest effect on efficacy in IBS, the risk-benefit ratio needs to be considered before they are prescribed. Despite safety concerns, the use of these drugs should be considered for patients who have failed conventional first- or second-line therapies. Research: The authors did not state any implications for research. Funding American College of Gastroenterology.

  • Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents Therapeutic Class Overview/Summary: This review will focus on agents used for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).1-5 IBS is a gastrointestinal syndrome characterized primarily by non-specific chronic abdominal pain, usually described as a cramp-like sensation, and abnormal bowel habits, either constipation or diarrhea, in which there is no organic cause. Other common gastrointestinal symptoms may include gastroesophageal reflux, dysphagia, early satiety, intermittent dyspepsia and nausea. Patients may also experience a wide range of non-gastrointestinal symptoms. Some notable examples include sexual dysfunction, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, increased urinary frequency/urgency and fibromyalgia-like symptoms.6 IBS is defined by one of four subtypes. IBS with constipation (IBS-C) is the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% of bowel movements and loose or watery stools with <25% of bowel movements. When IBS is associated with diarrhea (IBS-D) loose or watery stools are present with ≥25% of bowel movements and hard or lumpy stools are present with <25% of bowel movements. Mixed IBS (IBS-M) is defined as the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% and loose or water stools with ≥25% of bowel movements. Final subtype, or unsubtyped, is all other cases of IBS that do not fall into the other classes. Pharmacological therapy for IBS depends on subtype.7 While several over-the-counter or off-label prescription agents are used for the treatment of IBS, there are currently only two agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of IBS-C and three agents approved by the FDA for IBS-D.

    JK SCIENCE ORIGINAL ARTICLE Prophylactic Antiemetic Therapy with Ondansetron, Granisetron and Metoclopramide in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under GA Vishal Gupta, Renu Wakhloo, Anjali Mehta, Satya Dev Gupta Abstract The aim of the present study was to compare the antiemetic effect of intravenous Granisetron, Ondansetron & Metoclopramide in a randomized blinded study for prophylaxis of post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia. 60 patients (ASA I & II) undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia were randomly allocated into three equal groups (n=20). Emetic episodes in first 24 hours were recorded and compared in different study groups. Results were analyzed. Minimal emetic episodes were observed in early post-operative period (1-12hrs) in patients who had received intravenous granisetron in comparison to ondansetron and metoclopramide. However, after 12 hours emesis free periods were statistically insignificant between group A and B while patients in group C had no antiemetic effect.

  • IBS Treatment
    TREATMENTS OF IBS Douglas A. Drossman, MD Co-Director UNC Center for Functional GI & Motility Disorders INTRODUCTION In recent years, there has been increased interest by physicians and the pharmaceutical industry regarding newer treatments for IBS. Before discussing these new treatments, it is important to consider the overall management strategy in IBS. This is necessary because patients with IBS exhibit a wide spectrum of symptoms of varying frequencies and degrees of severity. There is no one ideal treatment for IBS, and the newer medications may work best for only a subset of patients having this disorder. Therefore, the clinician must first apply certain general management approaches and, following this, treatment choices will depend on the nature (i.e., predominant diarrhea, constipation, or bloating, etc.) and severity (mild, moderate, severe) of the symptoms. The symptoms of IBS may have any of several underlying causes. These can include: (a) abnormal motility (uncoordinated or excessive contractions that can lead to diarrhea, constipation, bloating) (b) visceral hypersensitivity (lower pain threshold of the nerves that can produce abdominal discomfort or pain) resulting from the abnormal motility, stress or infection (c) dysfunction of the brain's ability to regulate these visceral (intestinal) activities. Treatments will vary depending on which of these possibilities are occurring. In general, milder symptoms relate primarily to abnormal motility, often in response to food, activity or stress, and/or visceral hypersensitivity. They are commonly treated symptomatically with pharmacological agents directed at the gut. However, more severe symptoms often relate to dysfunction of the brain-gut regulatory system with associated psychosocial effects, and psychological or behavioral treatments and antidepressants are frequently helpful.

  • Investigating the Pharmacology of Novel 5-HT3 Receptor Ligands; with the Potential to Treat Neuropsychiatric and Gastrointestinal Disorders
    Investigating the pharmacology of novel 5-HT3 receptor ligands; with the potential to treat neuropsychiatric and gastrointestinal disorders by Alexander Roberts A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Clinical Sciences College of Medical and Dental Sciences University of Birmingham February 2020 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract The 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT; serotonin) 5-HT3 receptor is an excitatory ligand- gated ion channel expressed in for example the brain and the gastrointestinal tract. Two major subtypes of the receptor have been studied in the most detail; the homomeric 5-HT3A receptor and the heteromeric 5-HT3AB receptor. 5-HT3 receptor antagonists are used clinically to treat chemotherapy induced and post-operative nausea and vomiting, and demonstrate symptomatic relief in diarrhoea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-d); but unfortunately, these medications cause adverse effects such as constipation or rarely ischemic colitis in the latter condition. This study has characterised the pharmacology of two structurally distinct 5-HT3 receptor partial agonists (vortioxetine and CSTI-300); and identified the unique binding properties of the cryptic orthosteric modulator 5-chloroindole (Cl-indole) for the human (h) 5-HT3 receptor.
