Tesofensine on Metoprolol Pharmacokinetics
[0156]The ability of tesofensine to inhibit CYP2D6 in the clinical setting was investigated in a Phase 1 drug-drug interaction (DDI) study with metoprolol, which is a known substrate for CYP2D6.
Subjects
[0157]Healthy human male volunteers, 18-50 years of age. A total of 14 subjects were included in the study.
Methodology
[0158]Two consecutive study periods separated by a washout period of at least three days. The sequence of events was the same for all subjects. In period 1, a single dose of metoprolol was administered. In period 2, the same dose of metoprolol was administered at a steady state concentration of tesofensine.
Metoprolol: 50 mg single dose
Tesofensine: 2 mg loading dose at days 1-3, 0.5 mg maintenance dose at days 4-14
Results
[0159]The single dose metoprolol pharmacokinetics (PK) obtained at day 0 was compared to the PK obtained after 14 days of tesofensine once daily administration.
[0160]The results are depicted in FIG. 1. The resul...

Tesofensine and Metoprolol on Heart Rate and Blood Pressure in Humans
[0161]In a retrospective analysis of the data obtained in the above-mentioned Phase 1 DDI study the effect of a single dose of metoprolol in subjects treated with tesofensine was investigated. Particularly, the effect of tesofensine-metoprolol on heart rate and blood pressure at rest, was investigated.
[0162]Metoprolol was found to normalize the tesofensine-induced increase in heart rate after 7 hours (FIG. 2, 3rd column) as previously shown pre-clinically. In accordance with the pharmacokinetics of metoprolol (plasma T1 / 2 3-4 hours)—the effect on the heart rate disappeared after ˜24 hours (FIG. 2, 4th column). The data indicates that co-administration of tesofensine and metoprolol is capable of inhibiting the tesofensine-induced increase in heart rate in human subjects to levels approximating pre-treatment levels.
[0163]In the present study, 14 days of tesofensine treatment was found to increase systolic BP slightly...
example 3 phase 2a
Trial Entitled “A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple-Dose, Two-Center Safety, and Efficacy Study of Co-Administration of Tesofensin / Metoprolol (Tesomet) in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (NCT02737891)
[0166]The trial comprised a total of 60 patients with a mean BMI of 32.59 randomized into two groups of each 30 patients: Arm 1 were administered tesofensine 0.5 mg (tablets)+metoprolol 100 mg (MetoHEXAL® 100 mg retard tablets) once a day (Tesomet); Arm 2 were administered Placebo matching tablets once a day. Patients were treated for 90 days. The patients at enrolment had an average BMI of 32.59.
