Declarations under Rule 4.17: — of inventorship (Rule 4.17 (iv)) (54) Title: USE OF VIBEGRON TO TREAT OVERACTIVE BLADDER (57) Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of treating overactive bladder comprising orally administering to a subject in need thereof an amount of 75 mg of vibegron per day. USE OF VIBEGRON TO TREAT OVERACTIVE BLADDER BACKGROUND [0001] Overactive bladder (OAB) is a chronic and sometimes debilitating condition of the lower urinary tract. The function of the lower urinary tract is to store and periodically release urine. This requires the orchestration of storage and micturition reflexes which involve a variety of afferent and efferent neural pathways, leading to modulation of central and peripheral neuroeffector mechanisms, and resultant coordinated regulation of sympathetic and parasympathetic components of the autonomic nervous system as well as somatic motor pathways. These proximally regulate the contractile state of bladder (detrusor) and urethral smooth muscle, and urethral sphincter striated muscle. [0002] Overactive bladder, from a pathophysiologic perspective, has been linked with detrusor overactivity. OAB is characterized by the symptoms of urinary urgency, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, usually associated with frequency and nocturia. The prevalence of OAB in the United States and Europe has been estimated at 16 to 17% in both women and men over the age of 18 years. Overactive bladder is most often classified as idiopathic, but can also be secondary to neurological condition, bladder outlet obstruction, and other causes. [0003] Currently, the predominant class of drugs used to treat OAB is antimuscarinics. The clinical use of antimuscarinics is limited by modest efficacy and poor tolerability due to mechanism-based side effects including dry mouth, constipation and the potential for CNS adverse effects (e.g., cognitive impairment). High discontinuation rates have been observed for both tolterodine and oxybutynin, two commonly prescribed antimuscarinics, in both clinical trials and real-world settings. In addition, recent evidence from observational studies suggested that higher cumulative anticholinergic use is associated with an increased risk of dementia. See Gray SL, et a , JAMA Intern Med 2015; 175(3): 401-407. [0004] Beta-3 adrenergic receptor (P3-AR) activation is an effective way of relaxing the detrusor in normal and pathogenic states. Functional evidence in support of an important role for the P3-AR in urine storage emanates from studies in vivo. P3-AR agonists have demonstrated efficacy in alleviating symptoms of OAB. To date, only one P3-AR agonist, mirabegron (Astellas Pharma Global Development, Inc), has received marketing approval in the US and Japan for the treatment of OAB. Mirabegron activates the pi-AR in the detrusor muscle in the bladder, which leads to muscle relaxation and an increase in bladder capacity. Reductions in micturition frequency, urinary incontinence and urgency episodes, and increases in mean volume voided per micturition were observed with mirabegron [0005] Vibegron, (6S)-N-[4-[[(2S,5R)-5-[(R)-hydroxy(phenyl)methyl]pyrrolidin-2- yl]methyl]phenyl]-4-oxo-7,8-dihydro-6H-pyrrolo[l,2-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxamide, is a potent and highly selective beta-3 adrenergic receptor (p3-AR) agonist demonstrating >9,000 fold selectivity for activation of -A over P2-AR and Pi-AR in cell based in vitro assays. See Edmondson etal., J . Med. Chem. 59:609-623 (2016). [0006] Vibegron is disclosed as a P3-A agonist in United States Patent Nos. 8,399,480 and 8,247,415, and WO20 18/224989. Synthetic methods for preparing vibegron are disclosed in United States Publication Nos. US 2017/0145014, US 2015/0087832, US 2016/0176884 and US 2014/0242645. All of the cited publications are herein incorporated by reference in their entireties.

  • Gemtesa® (Vibegron) – New Drug Approval
    Gemtesa® (vibegron) – New drug approval • On December 23, 2020, Urovant Sciences announced the FDA approval of Gemtesa (vibegron), for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency in adults. • OAB is a common condition that occurs when the bladder muscle contracts involuntarily. Over 30 million Americans are estimated to suffer from bothersome symptoms of OAB. • Gemtesa is a selective human beta-3 adrenergic receptor agonist. Activation of the beta-3 adrenergic receptor increases bladder capacity by relaxing the detrusor smooth muscle during bladder filling. • The efficacy of Gemtesa was established in a 12-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo- controlled, and active-controlled study in 1,515 patients with OAB (urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency). The co-primary endpoints were change from baseline in average daily number of micturitions and average daily number of urge urinary incontinence (UUI) episodes at week 12. — The change from baseline at week 12 in the average daily number of micturitions was -1.8 and -1.3 for Gemtesa and placebo, respectively (difference of -0.5, 95% CI: -0.8, -0.2; p < 0.001). — The change from baseline at week 12 in the average daily number of UUI episodes was -2.0 and -1.4 for Gemtesa and placebo, respectively (difference of -0.6, 95% CI: -0.9, -0.3; p < 0.0001). • A warning and precaution for Gemtesa is urinary retention. • The most common adverse reactions (2%) with Gemtesa use were headache, urinary tract infection, nasopharyngitis, diarrhea, nausea, and upper respiratory tract infection. • The recommended dose of Gemtesa is one 75 mg tablet orally, once daily with or without food.

Evidence has since increased showing that adrenergic nerves in the BM release noradrenaline and possibly also dopamine, which act on adrenoceptors and dopaminergic receptors (DR) expressed on hematopoietic cells and affect cell survival, proliferation, migration and engraftment ability. Remarkably, dysregulation of adrenergic fibers to the BM is associated with hematopoietic disturbances and myeloproliferative disease.

  • GPCR/G Protein
    Inhibitors, Agonists, Screening Libraries www.MedChemExpress.com GPCR/G Protein G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) perceive many extracellular signals and transduce them to heterotrimeric G proteins, which further transduce these signals intracellular to appropriate downstream effectors and thereby play an important role in various signaling pathways. G proteins are specialized proteins with the ability to bind the nucleotides guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and guanosine diphosphate (GDP). In unstimulated cells, the state of G alpha is defined by its interaction with GDP, G beta-gamma, and a GPCR. Upon receptor stimulation by a ligand, G alpha dissociates from the receptor and G beta-gamma, and GTP is exchanged for the bound GDP, which leads to G alpha activation. G alpha then goes on to activate other molecules in the cell. These effects include activating the MAPK and PI3K pathways, as well as inhibition of the Na+/H+ exchanger in the plasma membrane, and the lowering of intracellular Ca2+ levels. Most human GPCRs can be grouped into five main families named; Glutamate, Rhodopsin, Adhesion, Frizzled/Taste2, and Secretin, forming the GRAFS classification system. A series of studies showed that aberrant GPCR Signaling including those for GPCR-PCa, PSGR2, CaSR, GPR30, and GPR39 are associated with tumorigenesis or metastasis, thus interfering with these receptors and their downstream targets might provide an opportunity for the development of new strategies for cancer diagnosis, prevention and treatment. At present, modulators of GPCRs form a key area for the pharmaceutical industry, representing approximately 27% of all FDA-approved drugs. References: [1] Moreira IS.
