Definitions
- the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the treatment of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders and to certain dichloroacetate derivatives as the active ingredients therein.
- DCA also stimulates lactate oxidation in animal tissue and significantly decreases lactic acid levels and overall morbidity in patients with lactic acidosis [Stacpoole et al, N. En ⁇ . J. Med.. Vol. 309:390 (1983); Blackshear et al, Diabetes Care. Vol. 5:391 (1982)].
- DCA reduces circulating triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations in obese [Felts et al, Dia ⁇ betes. Vol. 25 (suppl.):363 (1976)] and diabetic [Hayet et al, Metabolism. Vol. 29:120 (1980); Riles et al, Diabetes. Vol.
- DCA also markedly decreases blood cholesterol levels in patients with various forms of hyper- lipidemia [Stacpoole et al, N. En ⁇ . J. Med.. Vol. 298:526 (1978); Moore et al, Atherosclerosis. Vol. 33:285 (1979)].
- DCA is toxic to lower animals and humans, particularly upon chronic administration. It has been reported that a human patient who received DCA for about four months developed a mild poly- neuropathy that resolved when treatment stopped [Moore et al, ibid] . Chronic administration of DCA to lower animals in doses exceeding those used clinically also induces a revers ⁇ ible peripheral neuropathy, changes in testicular morphology and lenticular opacities [Stacpoole, N. En ⁇ . J. Med.. Vol. 300:372 (1979)].
- DCA is known to oxidize in vivo to glyoxalate and subsequently to oxalate [Demangre et al, Biochem. Biophvs. Res. Comm.. Vol. 85:1180 (1978); Harris et al, Arch. Biochem. Biophys.. Vol. 189:364 (1978) and Currey et al, Clin. Phar ⁇ macol. Ther.. Vol. 37:894 (1985)].
- Oxalate is a known neuro- toxin [Bilbao et al, Can. J. Neurol. Sci.. Vol. 3:63 (1976)] and cataract inducing chemical [Fielder et al, Br. J. Op thal.. Vol. 64:782 (1980)], and may be at least partly responsible for the neuropathic changes associated with the chronic administration of DCA.
- the drug also improves cardiac output and left ven ⁇ tricular mechanical efficiency under conditions of myocardial ischemia or failure, probably by facilitating myocardial metabolism of carbohydrate and lactate as opposed to fat.
- DCA may also enhance regional lactate removal and restoration of brain function in experimental stages of cerebral ischemia [Stacpoole, Metabolism, ibid] .
- DCA appears to inhibit its own metabolism, which may influence the duration of its pharmacologic actions and lead to toxicity.
- DCA can cause a reversible peripheral neuropathy that may be related to thiamine deficiency and may be amelio ⁇ rated or prevented with thiamine supplementation [Stacpoole, Metabolism, ibidl .
- CarbicarbTM is a substantially equimolar mixture of sodium carbonate (Na 2 C0 3 ) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHC0 3 ) which buffers solutions thereof to bicarbonate ions without a net generation of C0 2 .
- the mixture has been employed in humans and animals to restore normal systemic (blood) and/or intra- cellular pH and acid-base status which results in an improve ⁇ ment in the metabolism and function of cells, tissues and organisms [Filley et al. Trans. Am. Clin. Clinatol Assoc.. Vol. 96, page 141 (1934); Whalen et al, Clin. Res.. Vol. 36, page 374A (1988); and Bersin et al, Circulation. Vol. 77, page 227 (1988)].
- compositions in unit dosage form adapted for admin ⁇ istration to a human for the treatment of metabolic and/or cardiovascular disorders comprising a therapeutically effec ⁇ tive amount of a composition comprising dichloroacetic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or derivative thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable, substantially equimolar mixture of carbonate ions and bicarbonate ions, the weight ratio of dichloroacetic acid, derivative or salt thereof to said mix ⁇ ture of carbonate and bicarbonate ions being in the range of from about 100:1 to about .01:lj and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
- the present invention is predicated on the discovery that combinations of DCA and mixtures of carbonates and bicar- bonates in certain ratios synergistically enhance the thera ⁇ cookeric activities of each agent when administered in thera ⁇ cookerically effective dosages to humans in need of treatment for metabolic and/or cardiovascular disorders.
- DCA would promote aerobic oxidation of lactate and generate by this means increased bicarbonate ions (as a buffer for cells) and increase levels of high energy metabolites, such as ATP and creatine phosphate.
- the improvement in acid- base and energy status caused by DCA and the carbonate/bicar ⁇ bonate mixture would, in turn, increase the functional capacity of tissues such as the heart, leading to improved mechanical function and efficiency and better perfusion of tissues by the blood.
