Which anticholinergic is best for people with overactive bladders? A network meta-analysis.
    Neurourology and urodynamics, 2019, Volume: 38, Issue:2

    To carry out a network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of anticholinergic drug treatment for people with overactive bladders.. Comprehensive searches for relevant RCTs were carried out starting with RCTs included in previous systematic reviews with the last search in February 2017. Searches included terms for the anticholinergic drugs tolterodine, oxybutynin, trospium, propiverine, solifenacin, darifenacin, imidafenacin, and fesoterodine. Data was extracted from the systematic reviews or reports of studies for cure or improvement, voids per 24 hr, leakage episodes per 24 hr and dry mouth. Data was analysed using frequentist network meta-analysis.. 128 studies were found. There was no clearly best treatment for cure or improvement. The differences between treatments for voids and leakages were small and unlikely to be of clinical importance. Transdermally delivered oxybutynin was clearly the best treatment for dry mouth but was still worse than placebo.. All the anticholinergic drugs were better than placebo but apart from dry mouth were similar in effect. Transdermal oxybutynin caused less dry mouth than the other treatments, so may be worth considering as the first treatment.

Pharmacokinetics and toxicity of antimuscarinic drugs for overactive bladder treatment in females.
    Expert opinion on drug metabolism & toxicology, 2012, Volume: 8, Issue:11

    Antimuscarinics (AMs) are the mainstay of pharmacological treatment of overactive bladder (OAB), a symptom complex defined by the presence of urinary urgency, usually associated with frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence. The AMs used to treat OAB differ in their pharmacological profiles, which may affect their potential for causing adverse effects (AEs).. The present article aims to review the literature about pharmacokinetics (PK) of the different AMs used in the treatment of OAB. Furthermore, the AEs related to the use of these drugs and their incidence are presented. This systematic review is based on material searched and obtained via Medline, Pubmed and EMBASE up to March 2012 using the search terms "adverse events, pharmacokinetics, tolerability" in combination with "darifenacin, fesoterodine, imidafenacin, oxybutynin, propiverine, solifenacin, tolterodine, and trospium.". Antimuscarinics are the first-line pharmacological treatment for OAB. Despite the development of new molecules that improve their efficacy/safety profile, there are some drugs that are pharmacokinetically more appropriate to be prescribed in specific populations such as patients with neurological disease or the elderly. Moreover, research should be encouraged in evaluating antimuscarinics in conjunction with other drugs such as estrogens or beta-agonists. The identification of prognostic criteria for pharmacological therapy would be helpful.

Comparative Influence of Imidafenacin and Oxybutynin on Voiding Function in Rats with Functional Urethral Obstruction.
    Drug research, 2016, Volume: 66, Issue:6

    An antimuscarinic therapy may increase the risk of voiding dysfunction. However, it is unclear whether the relative risk of voiding dysfunction is different among antimuscarinics. Therefore we determined the potencies both in enhancing the bladder capacity (BC), effectiveness, and in decreasing the maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), voiding dysfunction, to compare their therapeutic indices.Under urethane anesthesia, urinary flow rate was measured at distal urethra using an ultrasonic flow meter in female Sprague-Dawley rats with functional urethral obstruction induced by a continuous i. v. infusion of α1-adrenoceptor agonist A-61603 (0.03 μg/kg/min). In a separate group of urethane-anesthetized rats without urethral obstruction, an intermittent cystometry was performed to determine BC.Intravenous imidafenacin and oxybutynin produced a significant dose-dependent decrease in Qmax with the minimum doses of 0.03 and 1 mg/kg, respectively. Imidafenacin and oxybutynin markedly increased BC, with minimum doses of 0.01 and 3 mg/kg, respectively. At the minimum dose to increase BC, oxybutynin caused a significant increase in residual urine volume with a significant decrease in voiding efficiency, whereas imidafenacin had no influence on these values. The relative influence index, which is the ratio of the minimum influence dose between in decreasing of Qmax and in increasing of BC, of imidafenacin was 10 fold higher than that of oxybutynin.This study suggests that imidafenacin has a lower relative risk of voiding difficulty compared with oxybutynin in rats. These results provide new information that antimuscarinics may have varying degrees of impact on voiding difficulty.

Factors influencing patient satisfaction with antimuscarinic treatment of overactive bladder syndrome: results of a real-life clinical study.
    International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association, 2014, Volume: 21, Issue:4

    To investigate patient satisfaction with antimuscarinic treatment of overactive bladder syndrome, and to identify factors having a significant influence on satisfaction.. A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was carried out to assess treatment satisfaction among male and female patients with overactive bladder (age ≥20 years) in the Hokuriku district of Japan. The overactive bladder symptom scores, treatment efficacies, adverse events (dry mouth and constipation), and patient satisfaction scores were investigated and compared among patients using different antimuscarinic therapeutics.. In total, 977 survey respondents (52.6% men; mean age 73.6 years) received antimuscarinic treatment. The mean overactive bladder symptom score of these patients was 6.17; in addition, 32.3% patients were satisfied with their treatment, but 33.1% were dissatisfied. Factors having a significant influence on treatment satisfaction were sex (men were less satisfied), efficacy, adverse events and the overactive bladder symptom score. Constipation negatively influenced patient satisfaction to a greater extent than did dry mouth. Patient satisfaction varied according to the drug used. Constipation was less severe with the immediate-release-type agents (imidafenacin and oxybutynin) than with the extended-release-type (propiverine, solifenacin or tolterodine).. Just one-third of Japanese Hokuriku patients with overactive bladder seem to be satisfied with their antimuscarinic treatment. Patient satisfaction is impaired by poor efficacy and the presence of adverse events; furthermore, constipation should be recognized as an adverse event that negatively influences patient satisfaction to a greater extent than dry mouth. Patient satisfaction differs according to the antimuscarinic agent used, with higher patient satisfaction being associated with less severe constipation.

Imidafenacin has no influence on learning in nucleus basalis of Meynert-lesioned rats.
    Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2013, Volume: 386, Issue:12

    The prevalence of overactive bladder (OAB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) increases with age, and much attention has been paid to the risk of cognitive impairment which may be induced by antimuscarinics used for OAB in patients with AD. Imidafenacin, an antimuscarinic agent for OAB treatment, has been reported not to affect learning in normal animals. However, under the condition in which sensitivity to learning impairment by antimuscarinics is increased, it remains unclear whether imidafenacin still does not impair the learning. Therefore, the influences of imidafenacin on passive avoidance response were investigated in sham-operated and nucleus basalis of Meynert (nbM)-lesioned rats and compared with oxybutynin hydrochloride and tolterodine tartrate. The learning-inhibitory doses of intravenous oxybutynin hydrochloride and tolterodine tartrate were 0.3 and 3 mg/kg in sham-operated rats and 0.1 and 1 mg/kg in nbM-lesioned rats, respectively. Thus, the learning impairments by those antimuscarinics were more sensitive in nbM-lesioned rats than in sham-operated rats. On the other hand, intravenous administration of imidafenacin had no influence on learning in either case of the rats. In normal rats, however, intracerebroventricular administration of imidafenacin impaired learning to the same degree as that of oxybutynin hydrochloride. Thus, the present study suggests that imidafenacin, unlike the other antimuscarinics used, has no significant risk of enhancing learning impairment even in models whose sensitivity to learning impairment by antimuscarinics is commonly increased, probably because of its low brain penetration.

Selective binding of bladder muscarinic receptors in relation to the pharmacokinetics of a novel antimuscarinic agent, imidafenacin, to treat overactive bladder.
    The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 2011, Volume: 336, Issue:2

    The binding of orally administered imidafenacin, used to treat overactive bladders, to muscarinic receptors in rat tissue was characterized based on pharmacokinetics. The binding in six tissues including bladder tissue was measured using [N-methyl-(3)H] scopolamine methyl chloride ([(3)H]NMS). Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from measurements of the concentration of imidafenacin in serum, the bladder, and the submaxillary gland by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. The receptor binding affinity of imidafenacin in vitro was significantly lower in the bladder than submaxillary gland or colon. The oral administration of imidafenacin (0.79, 1.57, and 6.26 μmol/kg) was characterized by a more selective and longer-lasting binding to muscarinic receptors in the bladder than other tissues. Imidafenacin showed little binding to brain muscarinic receptors, consistent with its minor effect on the central nervous system. Pharmacokinetic data showed that orally administered imidafenacin was distributed at a higher concentration in the bladder than the serum or submaxillary gland of rats. After the intravesical instillation of imidafenacin, there was significant binding of muscarinic receptors in the bladder. Furthermore, a significant level of imidafenacin was detected in the urine of rats given a 1.57 μmol/kg concentration of this agent. The present study demonstrated that imidafenacin administered orally distributes predominantly to the bladder and exerts more selective and longer-lasting effect on the bladder than other tissues, such as the submaxillary gland, colon, and brain. Furthermore, the imidafenacin excreted in urine may play an important role in pharmacokinetic and pharmacological selectivity.

Effect of oxybutynin and imidafenacin on central muscarinic receptor occupancy and cognitive function: a monkey PET study with [(11)C](+)3-MPB.
    NeuroImage, 2011, Sep-01, Volume: 58, Issue:1

    Although antimuscarinic agents are widely used to treat overactive bladder (OAB), they have been shown to induce side effects including dry mouth and cognitive impairment. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of antimuscarinic agents, oxybutynin and imidafenacin, on temporal changes in cognitive function and central mAChR occupancy in conscious monkeys (Macaca mulatta). Three conscious monkeys underwent positron emission tomography (PET) scans with a mAChR radioligand N-[(11)C]methyl-3-piperidyl benzilate ([(11)C](+)3-MPB). The scan sequence was pre, and 1, 4, and 24h post oral administration of oxybutynin (0.1-1.0mg/kg) or imidafenacin (0.01-0.1mg/kg). Maximum cognitive impairment was observed 1h post-oxybutynin at oral doses of 0.3 and 1.0mg/kg, in a dose-dependent manner, and oxybutynin produced significant positive correlations between mAChR occupancy and cognitive impairment in the cortices, thalamus, brainstem, and striatum. The most significant correlation was observed in the brainstem, and then cortices. In contrast, imidafenacin did not induce discernible cognitive impairment, despite having obtained some lesser occupancy in cortices and brainstem. We propose that the thresholds of mAChR occupancy to produce cognitive impairment by antimuscarinic agents are ca. 30-40% in cortices and ca. 20-30% in brainstem, and a desirable drug for OAB treatment should not occupy central mAChR above these thresholds.

Noninvasive evaluation of brain muscarinic receptor occupancy of oxybutynin, darifenacin and imidafenacin in rats by positron emission tomography.
    Life sciences, 2010, Jul-31, Volume: 87, Issue:5-6

    The current study was conducted to evaluate, by the noninvasive positron emission tomography (PET), the binding of antimuscarinic agents used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) to muscarinic receptors in rat brain.. Muscarinic receptor occupancy in the rat brain after the intravenous (i.v.) injection of oxybutynin, darifenacin and imidafenacin was evaluated by using a small animal PET system, and compared with the results by ex vivo autoradiographic and ex vivo radioligand binding experiments.. In PET study, the i.v. injection of oxybutynin but not darifenacin or imidafenacin at pharmacological doses decreased significantly binding potential (BP) of (+)N-[(11)C]methyl-3-piperidyl benzilate ([(11)C](+)3-MPB) in the rat cerebral cortex and corpus striatum in a dose-dependent manner. Similarly, in the in vivo autoradiographic experiment, oxybutynin dose-dependently reduced binding of [(11)C](+)3-MPB in the brain, whereas darifenacin and imidafenacin did not. Following the i.v. injection of oxybutynin, darifenacin and imidafenacin, there was a similar degree of binding to muscarinic receptors in the bladder as demonstrated by a significant increase in apparent dissociation constant (K(d)) values for specific [N-methyl-(3)H]scopolamine methyl chloride ([(3)H]NMS) binding. Significant binding of muscarinic receptors in the brain was observed after the injection of oxybutynin but not darifenacin or imidafenacin.. Oxybutynin but not darifenacin or imidafenacin has potential side effects on the central nervous system (CNS) in patients with OAB. The results reveal the noninvasive characterization of brain receptor occupancy by PET to be a powerful tool for precise evaluation of adverse CNS effects of antimuscarinic agents in pre-clinical and clinical evaluations.
