Opioid Receptor Antagonists for Treating Opioid Induced Constipation DORSET MEDICINES ADVISORY GROUP COMMISSIONING STATEMENT FOR PRESCRIBING PERIPHERALLY ACTING MU- OPIOID RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS FOR TREATING OPIOID INDUCED CONSTIPATION SUMMARY The Dorset Clinical Commissioning Group commissions peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonists (PAMORAs) naloxegol and naldemedine in accordance with NICE guidance (TA345 and TA651, respectively). This commissioning statement covers two peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonists (PAMORAs) – naloxegol and naldemedine. Naldemedine (Rizmoic®) is an antagonist of opioid binding at the mu-, delta-, and kappa-opioid receptors. It functions as a peripherally-acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist in tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract, thereby decreasing the constipating effects of opioids without reversing the central nervous system (CNS)-mediated opioid effects. It has a marketing authorisation in the UK for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation in adult patients who have previously been treated with a laxative. BACKGROUND Naloxegol (Moventig®) is a form of naloxol which has been pegylated (that is, attached to a molecule of polyethylene glycol, or PEG). In this form, it selectively antagonises peripheral opioid receptors to relieve constipation. It has a marketing authorisation for treating opioid-induced constipation in adults whose constipation has had an inadequate response to laxative(s). The marketing authorisation for naloxegol defines an inadequate response to laxative(s) as moderate, severe or very severe symptoms of opioid induced constipation in at least 1 of the 4 stool symptom domains (that is, incomplete bowel movement, hard stools, straining or false alarms) while taking at least 1 laxative class for at least 4 days during the prior 2 weeks. RELEVANT NICE NICE TA345: Naloxegol for treating opioid‑induced constipation (July 2015) GUIDANCE NICE TA651: Naldemedine for treating opioid-induced constipation (Sep 2020) FORMULARY STATUS Green PBR STATUS Included within PbR tariff NICE consider naloxegol would be an alternative to methylnaltrexone and COMMISSIONING would be similarly positioned in the treatment pathway after treatment with a IMPLICATIONS stimulant and osmotic laxative had failed. There is no formal treatment pathway for people with OIC. PAMORAs are PATIENT PATHWAY intended to be used after standard laxatives, either alone or in combination. IMPLICATIONS Both naldemedine and naloxegol are a similar cost at the time of writing. The most commonly reported adverse reactions to naloxegol and naldemedine are abdominal pain, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting. The PRESCRIBING majority of gastrointestinal adverse reactions are graded as mild to moderate, INFORMATION occur early in treatment and resolve with continued treatment. For full details of adverse reactions and contraindications, see the summary of product characteristics for the individual medicine. Naldemedine is a black triangle drug (▼), it is important to report suspected adverse reactions using the Yellow Card Scheme. The treatment of opioid-induced constipation depends on whether the opioid is the only cause of the constipation (pure opioid-induced constipation) or if there are other contributing factors (mixed aetiology constipation). Treatment may include a peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist (PAMORA) alone. But, commonly a PAMORA and a conventional laxative are used together. NICE TA345 states that naloxegol is effective compared with placebo in treating opioid induced constipation that has not responded adequately to SUMMARY OF EVIDENCE laxatives. TO SUPPORT Clinical evidence also shows that naldemedine increases the frequency of FORMULARY STATUS bowel movements compared with no treatment and other PAMORAs. The cost-effectiveness evidence in NICE TA651 includes naldemedine in several clinical scenarios, for both pure opioid-induced constipation and mixed aetiology constipation. In all scenarios, the most likely cost-effectiveness results are within what NICE normally considers an acceptable use of NHS resources. Therefore, naldemedine is recommended for opioid-induced constipation in adults who have had laxative treatment. Combination standard laxatives are recommended for mixed aetiology constipation, when initial laxative therapy has been tried. The list price for naloxegol is £55.20 per 30-tablet pack of 12.5-mg or 25-mg film-coated tablets. The recommended dose is 25 mg taken orally once daily (or 12.5 mg for people with renal insufficiency). Costs may vary in different settings because of negotiated procurement discounts. The list price of a 28-tablet pack of naldemedine is £41.72 per 28-tablet pack ASSESSMENT OF COST of the 200microgram tablets (excluding VAT; BNF online, accessed March IMPLICATIONS 2020). The recommended dose is 200micrograms taken orally once daily. The cost of a course of treatment depends on the duration of opioid-induced constipation needing treatment. Costs may vary in different settings because of negotiated procurement discounts. Prices correct as at October 2020.

    CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH APPLICATION NUMBER: 204760Orig1s000 OTHER REVIEW(S) MEMORANDUM DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH DATE: September 16, 2014 FROM: Julie Beitz, MD SUBJECT: Approval Action TO: NDA 204760 Movantik (naloxegol) tablets AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals LP Summary Naloxegol is an antagonist of opioid binding at the muͲopioid receptor. When administered at the recommended dose levels, naloxegol functions as a peripherallyͲacting opioid receptor antagonist in tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract, thereby decreasing the constipating effects of opioids. Naloxegol is a PEGylated derivative of naloxone and a new molecular entity. Pegylation confers the following properties: naloxegol has reduced passive permeability across membranes compared to naloxone; naloxegol is a PͲglycoprotein (PͲgp) efflux transporter substrate; and naloxegol is orally bioavailable. The reduced passive permeability and PͲgp efflux transporter properties limit CNS entry of naloxegol compared to naloxone. This memo documents my concurrence with the Division of Gastroenterology and Inborn Errors Product’s recommendation for approval of NDA 204760 for Movantik (naloxegol) tablets for the treatment of opioidͲinduced constipation (OIC) in adult patients with chronic nonͲcancer pain. Discussions regarding product labeling, and postmarketing study requirements and commitments have been satisfactorily completed. There are no inspectional issues that preclude approval. Dosing The recommended dose of Movantik (naloxegol) tablets is 25 mg taken once daily in the morning on an empty stomach. Patients who do not tolerate this dose, may reduce the dose to 12.5 mg once daily. Maintenance laxatives should be discontinued prior to initiation of therapy with Movantik.

Kappa opioid receptor (KOR) antagonists have recently shown potential for treating drug addiction and 1,2,3 4 8 depression. Arodyn (Ac[Phe ,Arg ,D-Ala ]Dyn A(1-11)-NH2), an acetylated dynorphin A (Dyn A) analog, has demonstrated potent and selective KOR antagonism, but can be rapidly metabolized by proteases. Cyclization of arodyn could enhance metabolic stability and potentially stabilize the bioactive conformation to give potent and selective analogs. Accordingly, novel cyclization strategies utilizing ring closing metathesis (RCM) were pursued. However, side reactions involving olefin isomerization of O-allyl groups limited the scope of the RCM reactions, and their use to explore structure-activity relationships of aromatic residues. Here we developed synthetic methodology in a model dipeptide study to facilitate RCM involving Tyr(All) residues. Optimized conditions that included microwave heating and the use of isomerization suppressants were applied to the synthesis of cyclic arodyn analogs.

What Moventig is and what it is used for Moventig contains the active substance naloxegol. It is a medicine used in adults to treat constipation specifically caused by pain medicines, called opioids, (e.g. morphine, oxycodone, fentanyl, tramadol, codeine) taken on a regular basis. It is used when laxatives have not provided acceptable relief of constipation. Constipation related to opioids can result in symptoms such as: • stomach pain • rectal straining (having to push very hard to move the stool out of the rectum, which can also cause pain in the anus during pushing) • hard stools (stools which are hard “like a rock”) • incomplete emptying of the rectum (after having a bowel movement, the feeling as if a stool is still in the rectum which needs to come out) In patients taking opioids with constipation, who have tried at least one laxative and had incomplete relief of constipation, Moventig has been shown in clinical trials to increase the number of bowel movements and improve symptoms of constipation caused by opioids.

  • Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Constipation Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Constipation Agents INTRODUCTION Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a gastrointestinal disorder that most commonly manifests as chronic abdominal pain and altered bowel habits in the absence of any organic disorder (Wald 2017). IBS may consist of diarrhea-predominant (IBS-D), constipation-predominant (IBS-C), IBS with a mixed symptomatology (IBS-M), or unclassified IBS (IBS-U). Switching between the subtypes of IBS is also possible (Ford et al 2014). IBS is a functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract characterized by abdominal pain, discomfort, and bloating, as well as disturbed bowel habit. The exact pathogenesis of the disorder is unknown; however, it is believed that altered gastrointestinal tract motility, visceral hypersensitivity, autonomic dysfunction, and psychological factors indicate disturbances within the enteric nervous system, which controls the gastrointestinal system (Andresen et al 2008, Ford et al 2009). Prevalence estimates of IBS range from 5 to 15%, and it typically occurs in young adulthood (Ford et al 2014). IBS-D is more common in men, and IBS-C is more common in women (World Gastroenterology Organization [WGO], 2015). Symptoms of IBS often interfere with daily life and social functioning (WGO 2015). The general goals of therapy are to alleviate the patient’s symptoms and to target any specific exacerbating factors (eg, medications, dietary changes), concerns about serious illness, stressors, or potential psychiatric comorbidities that may exist (Wald 2015). Non-pharmacological interventions to combat IBS symptoms include dietary modifications such as exclusion of gas- producing foods (eg, beans, prunes, Brussel sprouts, bagels, etc.), trials of gluten avoidance, and consumption of probiotics, as well as psychosocial therapies (eg, hypnosis, biofeedback, etc.) (Ford et al 2014).

  • Question of the Day Archives: Monday, December 5, 2016 Question: Calcium Oxalate Is a Widespread Toxin Found in Many Species of Plants
    Question Of the Day Archives: Monday, December 5, 2016 Question: Calcium oxalate is a widespread toxin found in many species of plants. What is the needle shaped crystal containing calcium oxalate called and what is the compilation of these structures known as? Answer: The needle shaped plant-based crystals containing calcium oxalate are known as raphides. A compilation of raphides forms the structure known as an idioblast. (Lim CS et al. Atlas of select poisonous plants and mushrooms. 2016 Disease-a-Month 62(3):37-66) Friday, December 2, 2016 Question: Which oral chelating agent has been reported to cause transient increases in plasma ALT activity in some patients as well as rare instances of mucocutaneous skin reactions? Answer: Orally administered dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) has been reported to cause transient increases in ALT activity as well as rare instances of mucocutaneous skin reactions. (Bradberry S et al. Use of oral dimercaptosuccinic acid (succimer) in adult patients with inorganic lead poisoning. 2009 Q J Med 102:721-732) Thursday, December 1, 2016 Question: What is Clioquinol and why was it withdrawn from the market during the 1970s? Answer: According to the cited reference, “Between the 1950s and 1970s Clioquinol was used to treat and prevent intestinal parasitic disease [intestinal amebiasis].” “In the early 1970s Clioquinol was withdrawn from the market as an oral agent due to an association with sub-acute myelo-optic neuropathy (SMON) in Japanese patients. SMON is a syndrome that involves sensory and motor disturbances in the lower limbs as well as visual changes that are due to symmetrical demyelination of the lateral and posterior funiculi of the spinal cord, optic nerve, and peripheral nerves.
