[0005] 140 amino acids encoded by the SNCA (synuclein-alpha) gene Alpha-synuclein, a protein composed of especially in the cortex, hippocampus, substantia nigra and cerebellum (where SNCA contributes to the regulation of neurotransmitter release). In the neuron terminals in (the process of), it is mainly found and enters the blood (Marques and Outeiro, 2012), and is packaged into exosomes of CNS origin ( Shi et al., 2014).

[0006] Under normal circumstances, this soluble protein is thought to form a stable folded tetramer that resists aggregation. However, in certain pathological conditions, for unknown reasons, alpha -synuclein oligomerizes and aggregates (with the formation of fibrils). At some point in this abnormal pathway, it also passes through the peripheral circulation and migrates into exosomes, where toxic synucle in species are thought to be formed.

[0007] The oligomerization and aggregation of abnormal alpha-synuclein are thought to be the cause of synucleinopathies, especially Parkinson's disease (PD), Lewy body dementia (LBD), Parkinsonian disorders associated with glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutations, multiple system atrophy (MSA), some forms of Alzheimer's disease, and several other disorders collectively referred to as "synucleinopathies". Alpha- synuclein is an abundant ubiquitous protein in the brain and is claimed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease, and other neurodegenerative disorders (Kim et al., 2004).

[0008] An abnormal ratio of monomeric and oligomeric synuclein species in plasma exosomes of patients has been proposed to be a prominent feature in the diagnosis of synucleinopathies.

[0009] PD was first reported in 1817 by James Parkinson, a ​Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system (CNS). It is characterized by three main clinical symptoms: resting tremor, bradykinesia, and muscle rigidity. In addition, postural instability and various neurobehavioral and learning disabilities can occur. In the United States alone, more than one million individuals are estimated to be suffering from this relentless progressive disorder. Moreover, the prevalence of PD continues to increase with the general aging of the American population. The symptoms of Parkinson's disease are currently thought to largely reflect the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons within the substantia nigra pars compacta. The cause of this degenerative process remains poorly understood, but abnormal misprocessing of alpha-synuclein into neurotoxic species is currently thought to be involved.

[0010] Lewy body dementia (LBD) is one of the most common types of progressive dementia. Central features of LBD include progressive cognitive decline, visual hallucinations, and Parkinsonian motor symptoms such as bradykinesia, gait difficulty, and muscle rigidity. Some cases may also be associated with depression. The symptoms of LBD are presumably caused by the selective loss of neurons, a result of misprocessing of synuclein, and are associated with the accumulation of Lewy bodies, spherical accumulations of synuclein within many degenerating neurons. Researchers do not know why alpha-synuclein accumulates in Lewy bodies or how synuclein species may cause the symptoms of LBD. Although the development of LBD is considered a marker for PD, LBD has also been observed in up to 60% of both sporadic and familial cases of Alzheimer's disease (AD) (Al-Mansoor et al., 2013). ​(Year). Therefore, the aggregation of α-synuclein is strongly associated as an important step in the development of neurodegenerative diseases (Al-Mansoor et al., 2013).

[0011] Parkinson's disease (PD) or brainstem-predominant Lewy body disease (LBD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB ) are the two most frequent α-synucleinopathies, which are progressive multisystem neurodegenerative disorders associated with the widespread presence of α-synuclein deposited in the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, and autonomic nervous system (Jellinger KA, 2008). According to reports, both are frequently associated with Alzheimer-type pathologies, and there is a considerable clinical and pathological overlap between PD (with or without dementia) and DLB (or LBD) corresponding to Braak LB stages 5 and 6 (Jellinger KA, 2008). Dementia is often not correlated with the progression stage of the LB pathology but may also be associated with the accompanying Alzheimer's disease lesions or mixed pathologies (Jellinger KA, 2008a ).

[0012] Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been reported to be characterized by the deposition of β-amyloid peptide, phosphorylation of tau protein (3- and 4-repeat tau), and α-synuclein (aSyn) deposition (Jellinger KA, 2008b). Lewy body diseases (LBD) such as sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) show aSyn positive depositions in neurons, neurites, glia, and presynaptic terminals, while frontotemporal dementia is tau positive and tau negative, ubiquitin and and TDP-43-positive neurons and glial inclusions are present (Jellinger KA, 2008b). The main proteins that can occur in different distribution patterns in the same brain The intermolecular interactions between are associated with different phenotypes and mixed pathologies, such as AD with aSyn pathology in the brainstem and amygdala , PD and DLB with AD lesions, and frontotemporal dementia associated with depositions of various mixtures, while others are characterized by other lesions absent and are characterized by one major pathology (e.g., tangle-predominant dementia, pure idiopathic PD, brainstem-predominant LBD) (Jellinger KA, 2008b). MSA with orthostatic hypotension is the current term for the neurological disorder that was previously called Shy-Drager syndrome

[0013] It is a progressive disorder of the central and autonomic nervous systems, characterized by orthostatic hypotension (an excessive drop in blood pressure when standing up) that causes dizziness or fainting. Multiple system atrophy can occur without orthostatic hypotension, but instead, there is urinary tract involvement (urgency / incontinence). Neurologists classify this disorder into three types: a Parkinsonian type that includes symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as slowness of movement, muscle rigidity, and tremors ; a cerebellar type that causes problems with coordination and speech; and a combined type that includes symptoms of both parkinsonism and cerebellar insufficiency . Problems due to urinary incontinence, constipation, and sexual dysfunction in men occur early in the course of the disease . Other symptoms include general weakness, double vision or other visual disturbances , breathing and swallowing difficulties, sleep disorders, and decreased sweating. This disease has common points with other diseases, so an accurate diagnosis may take several years .

[0014] ​​​Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) can lead to Gaucher disease, an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. A variety of lines of evidence suggest that mutant GBA may be a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. GBA mutations are currently thought to be the single greatest risk factor for the development of idiopathic PD. Clinically, imaging, and pharmacologically, GBA PD is nearly identical to idiopathic PD (O’Regan et al., 2017). The molecular mechanisms by which this increases the risk of PD in GBA mutation carriers are not fully understood, but it has been shown to be involved in the accumulation of synuclein (Soria et al., 2017). Several other disorders, although at a lower frequency, are also considered synucleinopathies. These include Hallervorden–Spatz syndrome, neuroaxonal dystrophy, and some cases of traumatic brain injury. In cases of Hallervorden–Spatz syndrome, symptoms include parkinsonism, dystonia, dysphagia / dysarthria, limb contractures / rigidity, dementia, and spasticity. Currently, much is thought to be centered on the processes that lead to the aggregation of synuclein, which may be central to the neuronal injury and destruction that occurs in these synucleinopathy disorders. The mechanisms of aggregation in these synucleinopathies remain uncertain. Current evidence suggests that the conversion of the alpha-helical structure to a beta-pleated conformation, and subsequent oligomer formation, may be pathogenic precursors to the fibrillation and aggregation of synuclein. (O’Regan et al., 2017). In GBA mutation carriers, the molecular mechanisms by which this leads to an increased risk of PD are not fully understood, but it has been shown to be involved in the accumulation of synuclein (Soria et al., 2017). (Soria et al., 2017).

[0015] These include Hallervorden–Spatz syndrome, neuroaxonal dystrophy, and some cases of traumatic brain injury. In cases of Hallervorden–Spatz syndrome, symptoms include parkinsonism, dystonia, dysphagia / dysarthria, limb contractures / rigidity, dementia, and spasticity.

[0016] Currently, much is thought to be centered on the processes that lead to the aggregation of synuclein, which may be central to the neuronal injury and destruction that occurs in these synucleinopathy disorders.

[0017] The mechanisms of aggregation in these synucleinopathies remain uncertain. Current evidence suggests that the conversion of the alpha-helical structure to a beta-pleated conformation, and subsequent oligomer formation, may be pathogenic precursors to the fibrillation and aggregation of synuclein. ​​​suggests something. These features are similar to abnormal processing of the prion protein Prion-like protein, which can also be highly neurotoxic. Phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein at serine-129 residue has been implicated as a factor (Chen et al., 2016). According to these authors, the prion form of alpha-synuclein may be a cause, in particular, of multiple system atrophy. Prions are small proteins that can also misfold, form oligomers, aggregate and be transmitted to other cells. The results in the brain are widespread and a transmissible neurotoxic process.

[0018] Therefore, inhibiting the initial misfolding, oligomer formation and aggregation of synuclein may be beneficial in delaying or even halting the progression of synucleinopathy disorders.

[0019] As described above, alpha-synuclein is readily excreted into the extracellular space and has been identified in cerebrospinal fluid, blood, urine and saliva (Marques and Outeiro, 2012). The mechanism of alpha-synuclein excretion is not fully understood, but studies have demonstrated that at least a fraction of alpha-synuclein is excreted into exosomes, which are endocytosis-derived membrane vesicles of 40 - 100 nm (reviewed in Shi et al., 2014). The ratio of monomer to oligomer species of alpha-synuclein in plasma exosomes derived from the CNS correlates with disease severity (Shi et al., 2014), thus suggesting that alpha-synuclein species in plasma exosomes may be useful for monitoring disease progression. Correlates with the severity of functional impairment in the cross-section of samples from patients (Stuendl et al., 20 16).

[0020] Based on the above, drugs that normalize the ratio of monomeric and oligomeric alpha-synuclein species in plasma exosomes derived from the brain should delay or even halt the processes associated with synucleinopathy-related neurodegeneration.

[0021] Various compositions for the treatment of PD-related synucleinopathy and related disorders have been proposed that target the initial oligomerization and aggregation of alpha-synuclein. The processes discovered are mainly involved in cellular and animal models of prion and alpha-synuclein-induced neurodegeneration (Prusiner et al., 2015). Unfortunately, these models have not been validated and are currently all regarded as uncertain predictors of effects in humans. Nevertheless, these models continue to be widely used in the absence of better discovered techniques.

[0022] Pharmaceuticals currently proposed for consideration include, for example, low-molecular-weight substances such as pramipexole and its analogs.

[0023] Pramipexole is a synthetic aminothiazole derivative described in U.S. Patent No. 4,886,812, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. It is approved for the treatment of motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) at a dose in the range of 0.375 mg / day to 4.5 mg / day, administered in three equally divided doses (package insert for Mirapex (registered trademark), July 2016), a non-ergoline class ​​​​​​​​​ is a dopamine agonist (Schneider CS and Mierau J, 1987). Pramipexole is available as immediate-release tablets containing 0.125 mg, 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, 1 m g and 1.5 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate, and sustained-release tablets containing 4.5 mg of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate as.

[0024] Pramipexole is widely used for the relief of symptoms of Parkinson's disease, but its potential as a disease-modifying agent has made pramipexole the subject of considerable research .

[0025] According to reports, pramipexole reduces the formation of oligomers of synuclein in vitro (Ono et al., 2013). Related studies have shown that pramipexole inhibits the toxic effects of rotenone on dopaminergic neurons in a mouse PD model while reducing immunoreactivity to alpha -synuclein, and in addition, pramipexole has been shown to reduce the in vitro oligomer formation of human wild-type alpha-synuclein by H2O2 and cytochrome c (Inden et al., 2009). Pramipe xole has also been observed to inhibit the aggregation of alpha-synuclein in SH-SY5Y cells, a human neuroblastoma (Kakimura et al., 2009). Importantly, it has been found that the relative expression of alpha-synuclein in serum exosomes decreases during prami pexole treatment in PD-type patients (Luo et al., 2016). xole in

[0026] ​​In addition, pramipexole has begun to be reported to exhibit a neuroprotective effect in various in vitro cell models and in vivo animal models of PD. The mechanism by which these neuroprotective effects may occur remains uncertain. Unfortunately, the protective effect of pramipexole in animal models is generally small and requires higher doses than would be considered safe and tolerable for human administration. Therefore, it is hardly surprising that pramipexole at doses approved for the treatment of PD motor symptoms was unable to demonstrate neuroprotective (i.e., disease-modifying) activity in a randomized comparative clinical trial involving 535 PD patients (Schapira AH, 2013)

[0027] A (R) / (S) mixture comprising a therapeutically effective amount of dextropramipexole or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and solvate thereof, and a therapeutically effective amount of pramipexole or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and solvate thereof, which is useful for the treatment of PD, is disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2008 / 0014259, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety

[0028] According to U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2008 / 0014259, both enantiomers can confer a neuroprotective effect by virtue of their ability to accumulate in cells of the brain, spinal cord, and mitochondria, which exerts a positive effect on nerve function independent of the dopamine agonist activity of pramipexole. In particular, the document discloses the composition as a neuroprotective agent and, in combination with up to 5000 mg of dextropramipexole, about ​​​​​​​​​​​A therapeutically effective dose of pramipexole ranging from 0.0625 mg to about 6 mg is proposed. However, this document is a reference to the same article in the almost identical International Publication No. WO 2008 / 113003. As confirmed by the applicant, the dopaminergic effects of pramipexole They emphasize the adverse effects of sedatives and tend to privilege low doses of pramipexole. The contents of this patent are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

According to No. 116292, dexpramipexole or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and and solvates may be used to slow the progression of neuronal degeneration and / or to improve neuronal function.

[0031] Unfortunately, there are limitations associated with administering pramipexole to patients with synucleinopathy. , pramipexo at potentially higher neuroprotective doses predicted by multiple animal models. First, its putative beneficial effects in synuclein-related neurotoxicity may limit its use. The mechanisms explaining this effect continue to elude complete understanding. Second, animal model studies The magnitude of the effect in [context not provided] tends to be small and occurs only at relatively high drug dosages. Both situations are also seen in the above reports on pramipexole-induced changes in synuclein in exosomes in PD patients, which are associated with administration of the maximum approved dosage of pramipexole of 4.5 mg / day (Mirapex package insert; revised July 2016). In the report by Luo et al. (2016), treatment of Parkinson's patients with approved therapeutic dosages of pramipexole significantly decreased the relative expression of alpha-synuclein (compared to pre-treatment values), but the magnitude of the effect was small. Higher dosages of pramipexole may be more effective, but side effects such as vomiting and severe nausea make the use of higher dosages impossible. For example, Corrigan et al. (2000) reported that a dosage of pramipexole of 5 mg / day, which is only slightly higher than the maximum recommended dosage of 4.5 mg / day (FDA-approved package insert for pramipexole), caused nausea in 76% of patients and vomiting in 39% of patients. Furthermore, 36% of patients were unable to complete the study due to presumably unacceptable GI adverse events.

[0032] U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2014 / 0024644 discloses a series of indole (or indazole)-carboxylic acid esters or amides, azabicycloalkyl, oxabicycloalkyl or oxaazabicycloalkyl group esters or N-substituted forms that impart 5HT3-antagonist activity and are thus useful for the treatment of a number of diseases treatable by inhibition of the 5HT3 receptor. In particular, this document discloses 5HT3-antagonists.

[0033] ​​​​​​​​​​​ A series of disorders that can be treated with nicotine include vomiting, migraine, drug abuse and dependence, neurodegeneration and mental disorders (including Parkinson's disease), gastrointestinal disorders, immune disorders, atherosclerosis and inflammation are listed. This document also discloses the possible combinations of the 5HT3-antagonist with a number of active agents including pramipexole without any further information.

[0034] In a different therapeutic context, the inventors have disclosed the possibility of increasing the dose of an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor by combining it with an antiemetic containing a 5TH3-antagonist in US Patent Application Publication No. 2011 / 0071135.

[0035] In conclusion, despite a very large number of existing documents, particularly Willner et al., 1994, Corrigan et al., 2000 and the disclosures of US Patent Application Publication Nos. 2008 / 0014259, US Patent Application Publication No. 2011 / 0071135 and US Patent Application Publication No. 2014 / 00 24644, no one has successfully and safely increased the efficacy of pramipexole, and pramipexole currently provides only minimal activity in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

[0036] Thus, the problem of providing a safe, long-term and effective treatment for patients suffering from synucleinopathy with pramipexole remains unsolved.

Summary of the Invention

[0037] The present invention increases the therapeutic concentration range of pramipexole and provides, in patients with PD-like disorders, to delay onset and / or progression of symptoms to a clinically significant extent and to enable the full neuroprotective effect thereof safely to such an extent as to safely enable its full neuroprotective effect

[0038] A 5HT3-antagonist such as ondansetron or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof has been found herein to have the potential to modify synucleinopathy of pramipexole by reducing or even suppressing the GI side effects of high-dose pramipexole to afford

[0039] 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine in combination with a 5HT3-antagonist such as ondansetron or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof acts by normalizing the otherwise abnormal ratio of monomeric and oligomeric synuclein species in plasma exosomes derived from the CNS as also found herein

[0040] A 5HT3-receptor antagonist, also simply referred to as a 5HT3-antagonist when used in a defined combination with 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine makes it possible to treat patients suffering from synucleinopathy with minimal adverse effects while maintaining a therapeutically effective daily dose of 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof as further found herein herein

[0041] In addition, said 5HT3-antagonist is useful for alleviating the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease​​ Higher than the maximum recommended daily dose of pramipexole and potentially much higher, the (S)- enantiomer dose, including a daily dose of 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro- 1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine, has been found to enable safe administration. Therefore, an improvement in the condition of patients suffering from synucleinopathy, particularly PD, Lewy body disease, Parkinson's disorders and MSA related to glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutations has been achieved.

[0042] In particular, the protective effect of said 5HT3-antagonist has been found to enable increasing the maximum recommended and approved dose by at least 4-fold, up to 10-fold or even more, the daily dose of pramipexole.

[0043] A combination of ondansetron or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof as component (a), such as a 5HT3-antagonist, and 6-propylamino-4,5,6, 7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine as component (b) acts in a way that results in normalization of the abnormal ratio of monomeric and oligomeric synuclein species in plasma exosomes derived from the CNS of patients suffering from synucleinopathy.

[0044] Accordingly, the present invention provides a combination of a 5HT3-antagonist and 6-propylamino- 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine that acts in a way that tends to normalize the abnormal ratio of monomeric and oligomeric synuclein species in plasma exosomes derived from the CNS for use in the treatment of synucleinopathy. -4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine. ​​​​​​

[0045] The present invention provides a method for treating a patient suffering from synucleinopathy, the method comprising treating the patient with an effective daily dose of a 5HT3-antagonist in combination with a therapeutically effective daily dose of 6-propylamino -4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine. Also provided is a method comprising such treatment.

[0046] According to certain embodiments, the 5HT3-antagonist and the 6-propylamino -4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine are each formulated into a pharmaceutical composition admixed with a pharmaceutical carrier and are administered separately to a patient in need of treatment with the combination.

[0047] According to another embodiment, the 5HT3-antagonist and 6-propylamino-4 ,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine are mixed together and formulated into a pharmaceutical composition (fixed-dose combination) admixed with a pharmaceutical carrier for administration to a patient in need of such treatment.

[0048] Any 5HT3-antagonist that has been shown to be effective, preferably approved, for preventing or treating nausea and vomiting following cancer chemotherapy can be used in combination at a dose equal to or higher than the dose of 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro -1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine currently commonly used for treating neurodegenerative diseases, or at a dose currently used for treating neurodegenerative diseases. Long-term use of this combination may result in the 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro Induced by the S-enantiomer present in -1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine By simultaneously reducing or even eliminating the harmful effects Improve the symptoms of synucleinopathy.

[0049] As described in the definition, 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1 ,3-benzothiazol-2-amine represents the active ingredient independently of its salts or solvates.

[0050] In this specification, the phrase "its salts or solvates" and the cited 5HT3-antagonist Or 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothia The phrase "its salts or solvates" with respect to any of zole-2-amine indicates that any of the salts of the cited 5HT3-antagonist or the said 6-propylamino-4,5,6,7- Tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine can be solvated with a solvent, generally , water.

[0051] According to the present invention, preferably, the 5HT3-antagonist used is one that is approved for preventing or treating nausea and vomiting after cancer chemotherapy. In fact, Surprisingly, known 5HT3 receptor inhibitors for preventing or treating nausea, vomiting and diarrhea induced by chemotherapeutic agents, especially when administered at high doses, do not affect their effectiveness in the treatment of said synucleinopathy and also prevent the gastrointestinal side effects of the S-enantiomer contained in the said 6-propylamino- 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine. 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-amine.

Example

[0223] The ability of 5HT3 - antagonists to prevent gastrointestinal (GI) adverse effects (AE) of pramipexole in humans was tested. ​​​​​​​​​​​

[0224] A Phase I trial was conducted in subjects administered a single oral dose of ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate ("ondansetron") with or without a single oral dose of pramipexole dihydrochloride monohydrate ("pramipexole"). This trial was a single-site, single-blind study.

[0225] The purpose of the trial was to demonstrate that ondansetron could safely attenuate the gastrointestinal side effects of pramipexole administered at a dose equal to or greater than the dose approved for

[0226] treatment of Parkinson's disease or the dose shown in clinical trials to be effective for the treatment of depression. 1. Male and female subjects, including both ages 20 - 45. 2. Women of childbearing potential must abstain or agree to use any two of the following medically acceptable forms of contraception from screening through 14 days after the last visit of the trial: condom and spermicidal jelly, diaphragm or cervical cap and spermicidal jelly, or intrauterine device (IUD). Women with a vasectomized male partner must agree to use one additional form of medically acceptable contraception. Subjects must agree to use the above birth control methods for 14 days after the final visit as a safety measure. Not necessary. The reason is that it must be documented in the original materials. 4. Males with a female partner who is potentially fertile must agree to use a highly effective medically acceptable method of contraception from the screening period until 14 days after the last visit of the trial. Males who are surgically sterile (post-vasectomy) and have a female partner who is potentially fertile must agree to use condoms and spermicides for the same period. Male subjects must agree to implement the above birth control methods for 14 days after the final visit as a safety measure. 5. Subjects must have a medical history, including personal and family psychiatric history and the results of a health examination, an electrocardiogram (ECG), vital signs, and a good health status determined by clinical tests.

Showing signs of suicidal ideation within the past 6 months as evaluated by the C-SSRS (Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale) at screening.

[0228] After registering for the test, participants were administered a single oral escalating dose of pramipexole once a day in the morning (Test Period 1). The starting dose of pramipexole was 0.5 mg, and this dose was increased by 0.5 mg increments daily. When the subject reached the subject's first intolerable dose (FID-1), the upward dose increase was stopped. The first intolerable dose (FID) was defined as follows: - 1(1) episode of vomiting; or - 2(2) episodes of nausea, or - 1(1) episode of severe nausea lasting more than 1 hour (Grade 3; defined as nausea that interferes with daily activities or inadequate oral calorie or fluid intake; requiring tube feeding, total parenteral nutrition, or hospitalization), or - 1(1) episode of dizziness; or - 1(1) episode of syncope; or - Continuous episodes (Grade 2; subjectively symptomatic but not interfering with activities of daily living) of moderate vomiting every 4 hours in 3(3), or - One (1) episode of moderate diarrhea (Grade 2; defined as 4 - 6 more stools than baseline) in 1(1).

[0229] When the subject reached FID - 1 for pramipexole alone, the subject was washed out for at least 5 days and then entered Period 2 of the study, during which the subject received a single oral daily dose of pramipexole starting at 0.5 mg and escalating in 0.5 mg increments until the subject reached the intolerable dose defined above, together with oral ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate (equivalent to 10 mg, 8 mg of ondansetron base). The FID for oral pramipexole and oral ondansetron was designated FID - 2. (equivalent to 10 mg, 8 mg of ondansetron base).

[0230] If the subject reached FID - 2 during Period 2 at the same or lower dose as FID - 1 and the study responsible physician determined that there were no safety concerns and the subject consented, the subject received the same dose of pramipexole as the FID - 2 dose, together with a higher dose of oral ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate (equivalent to 20 mg, 16 mg of ondansetron base), the next day. The protocol specified that the subject should continue the remainder of the dose titration with a higher dose of oral ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate (equivalent to 20 mg, 16 mg of ondansetron base) until the subject reached the intolerable dose (FID2+). All other conditions of the protocol were kept unchanged. The assessments were the same as those planned for the dose increase day. ​​

[0231] On each test day, the subjects were followed up for AE, vital signs, and ECG up to 8 hours after drug administration. In addition, the test panel was obtained at the end of screening and the study.

[0232] Three subjects were enrolled in this study. The demographic characteristics of the subjects are summarized in Table 1 below.

[0233]

Table 1

[0234] All subjects reached FID-1 (pramipexole alone) during the study. Dose-limiting toxicity was gastrointestinal adverse events in all five subjects. For all subjects, FID-2 was higher than FID-1. During Period 2 of the study, three of the five subjects tolerated the maximum dose of pramipexole as defined by the 6 mg protocol and thus did not reach FID-2 (pramipexole and ondansetron). In other words, co-administration of ondansetron and pramipexole prevented the occurrence of gastrointestinal dose-limiting adverse events associated with high doses of pramipexole. Table 2 lists the values for each subject for FID-1 (pramipexole alone) and FID-2 (pramipexole + ondansetron).

[0235]

Table 2

[0236] As shown in Table 3 below, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) during Period 2 was in all subjects.​​​​​​​​​​​ and higher than the MTD during Period 1, and in two subjects, MTD-2 increased up to more than three-fold .

[0237]

Table 3

[0238] Overall, the results indicate that co-administration of ondansetron and pramipexole attenuates the gastrointestinal dose-limiting adverse effects reported with pramipexole alone, and thus, 5HT3 antagonists enable the administration of pramipexole to humans at other intolerable doses when administered alone.

[0239] In conclusion, co-administration of ondansetron and pramipexole inhibits the occurrence of gastrointestinal AEs associated with administration of pramipexole alone, and thus, the dose of pramipexole can be safely and tolerably increased up to more than two-fold, thereby enabling much higher efficacy of this drug.
