  • Hypersensitivity to Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs: from Pathogenesis to Clinical Practice
    ARTIGO DE REVISÃO Hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: From pathogenesis to clinical practice Hipersensibilidade a anti-inflamatórios não esteroides: Da patogénese à prática clínica Data de receção / Received in: 28/10/2017 Data de aceitação / Accepted for publication in: 17/11/2017 Rev Port Imunoalergologia 2018; 26 (3): 207-220 Inês Mota, Ângela Gaspar, Mário Morais-Almeida Imunoallergy Department, CUF Descobertas Hospital, Lisbon ABSTRACT Nonsteroidal anti - inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are one of the leading causes of hypersensitivity reactions, which affect a considerable percentage of the general population. These drugs can induce a wide spectrum of reactions with distinct timing, organ involvement and severity, including either immunological or nonimmunological mechanisms. A proper diagnosis can be particularly challenging since most reactions result from the pharmacological mechanism of the drug and might be dose - dependent. The clinical classification of NSAIDs - induced reactions has changed over time. Accurate diagnosis depends on strict clinical history and proper understanding of underlying mechanism. Skin testing and in vitro testing have limited usefulness. Drug chal- lenge tests with the culprit or alternative drugs are the gold standard for the diagnosis, and provide information about drug avoidance and safe therapeutic options. In selected cases drug desensitization might be a therapeutic option. In this review, we will attempt to highlight the main aspects to be taken into account for a proper management of patients with NSAIDs hyper- sensitivity. Key - words: Acetylsalicylate acid, alternative drugs, desensitization, diagnosis, hypersensitivity, nonsteroidal anti - inflammatory drugs. 207 REVISTA PORTUGUESA DE IMUNOALERGOLOGIA Inês Mota, Ângela Gaspar, Mário Morais-Almeida RESUMO Os anti - inflamatórios não esteroides (AINEs) são uma das principais causas de reações de hipersensibilidade, afetando uma percentagem considerável da população em geral.

  • Nicox' Naproxcinod Shows Robust Blood Pressure Results in Phase 3
    PRESS RELEASE NicOx’ naproxcinod shows robust blood pressure results in phase 3 pooled analysis First compound in the CINOD class shows similar blood pressure profile to placebo, with clear differentiation from a widely used NSAID December 17, 2008. Sophia Antipolis, France. www.nicox.com NicOx S.A. (NYSE Euronext Paris: COX) today announced positive results of a pre-specified pooled analysis of 2,734 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) from the 301, 302 and 303 pivotal phase 3 studies for naproxcinod. Both doses of naproxcinod showed a significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) compared to naproxen 500 mg bid over the whole 13 week period (p<0.001 for naproxcinod 750 mg bid and p <0.05 for naproxcinod 375 mg bid). Naproxcinod is the first compound in a novel class of anti-inflammatory agents known as Cyclooxygenase-Inhibiting Nitric Oxide Donators (CINODs). A significantly lower proportion of patients on naproxcinod experienced an increase in SBP of 5 mmHg or more, compared to naproxen Over the whole 13 week period the proportion of patients whose SBP increased by 5 mmHg or more was higher for naproxen 500 mg bid, as compared to naproxcinod 750 mg bid (p<0.001), naproxcinod 375 mg bid (p=0.013) and placebo (p<0.001). Both naproxcinod doses showed a similar blood pressure profile to placebo, in contrast to naproxen which raised SBP (p<0.001) There is a clear unmet medical need for a novel anti-inflammatory agent with no detrimental impact on blood pressure. COX-2 inhibitors and traditional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as naproxen, are widely used for the symptomatic treatment of OA but can lead to the onset of new episodes of high blood pressure or worseni ng of pre-existing hypertension.

  • Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of the Cyclooxygenase-Inhibiting Nitric
    Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of the Cyclooxygenase-Inhibiting Nitric Oxide Donator Naproxcinod in Treating Osteoarthritis of the Hip or Knee JON KARLSSON, ALDINA PIVODIC, DIANA AGUIRRE, and THOMAS J. SCHNITZER ABSTRACT. Objective. Naproxcinod, a cyclooxygenase-inhibiting nitric oxide donator antiinflammatory drug, was evaluated in this phase 2, double-blind, randomized, parallel group study to determine its opti- mal dose in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Methods. In total 543 patients with OA of the hip or knee were randomized to receive naproxcinod 750 mg once daily (qd), 750 mg twice daily (bid), 1125 mg bid, rofecoxib 25 mg qd, or placebo for 6 weeks. The primary efficacy variable was the within-patient change from baseline to the average of Weeks 4 and 6 in WOMAC™ pain subscale score. Treatment-group differences were compared using ANCOVA with factors for treatment and country, and baseline pain subscale score as a covari- ate. Safety endpoints included vital signs and adverse events. Treatment-group differences in mean change from baseline to Week 6 in systolic blood pressure (SBP) were compared using an ANCOVA with treatment and country as fixed factors and baseline SBP as covariate. Results. All active treatments showed statistically significant reductions in WOMAC pain score compared to placebo (p ≤ 0.02). Naproxcinod was well tolerated. The 750 mg bid dose appeared to have the best balance of benefit versus safety. All 3 naproxcinod doses showed a reduction in SBP, while an increase was shown for rofecoxib. The changes for the naproxcinod groups were statisti- cally significantly better compared to rofecoxib (p ≤ 0.02).

  • Naproxcinod Shows Significant Advantages Over Naproxen in The
    Miglietta et al. Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases (2015) 10:101 DOI 10.1186/s13023-015-0311-0 RESEARCH Open Access Naproxcinod shows significant advantages over naproxen in the mdx model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Daniela Miglietta1†, Clara De Palma2*†, Clara Sciorati3, Barbara Vergani4, Viviana Pisa2, Antonello Villa4, Ennio Ongini1 and Emilio Clementi2,5 Abstract Background: In dystrophin-deficient muscles of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients and the mdx mouse model, nitric oxide (NO) signalling is impaired. Previous studies have shown that NO-donating drugs are beneficial in dystrophic mouse models. Recently, a long-term treatment (9 months) of mdx mice with naproxcinod, an NO-donating naproxen, has shown a significant improvement of the dystrophic phenotype with beneficial effects present throughout the disease progression. It remains however to be clearly dissected out which specific effects are due to the NO component compared with the anti-inflammatory activity associated with naproxen. Understanding the contribution of NO vs the anti-inflammatory effect is important, in view of the potential therapeutic perspective, and this is the final aim of this study. Methods: Five-week-old mdx mice received either naproxcinod (30 mg/kg) or the equimolar dose of naproxen (20 mg/kg) in the diet for 6 months. Control mdx mice were used as reference. Treatments (or vehicle for control groups) were administered daily in the diet. For the first 3 months the study was performed in sedentary animals, then all mice were subjected to exercise until the sixth month. Skeletal muscle force was assessed by measuring whole body tension in sedentary animals as well as in exercised mice and resistance to fatigue was measured after 3 months of running exercise.

Felbinac cataplasm product design was investigated using rheological and mechanical analyses. Experiments using a response surface methodology based on Box–Behnken design (BBD) incorporated three independent variables: the proportions of partially neutralized polyacrylate (NP800), dihydroxyaluminum aminoacetate (DAAA), and felbinac. Statistically significant quadratic models obtained using BBD demonstrated optimal NP-800, DAAA, and felbinac cataplasm proportions of 4.78–5.75%, 0.30–0.59%, and 0.70–0.90%, respectively. Felbinac cataplasms exhibited “gel-like” mechanical property with predominantly elastic behavior. Rheological studies correlated increasing NP-800 and DAAA concentrations with increased complex modulus (G*) values that were inversely related to peeling strength. Frequency sweep and creep tests revealed decreasing tan θ values with increasing NP-800 and DAAA concentrations. G’ and G” values were higher for higher NP-800 and DAAA levels, although G” values decreased with increasing DAAA concentration. Response surface methodology was applied to develop mathematical models. Variance analysis showed that the quadratic model effectively predicted felbinac and matrix material interactions, with two verification samples upholding model predictions.
