Vardenafil (INN) is a PDE5 inhibitor used for treating erectile dysfunction that is sold under the trade names Levitra (Bayer AG, GSK, and SP) andStaxyn.
Vardenafil was co-marketed by Bayer Pharmaceuticals, GlaxoSmithKline, and Schering-Plough under the trade name Levitra. As of 2005, the co-promotion rights of GSK on Levitra have been returned to Bayer in many markets outside the U.S. In Italy, Bayer sells vardenafil as Levitra and GSK sells it as Vivanza. Thus, because of European Union trade rules, parallel imports might result in Vivanza sold next to Levitra in the EU.
Vardenafil (Levitra) is an oral therapy for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It is a selective inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). Penile erection is a hemodynamic process initiated by the relaxation of smooth muscle in the corpus cavernosum and its associated arterioles. During sexual stimulation, nitric oxide is released from nerve endings and endothelial cells in the corpus cavernosum. Nitric oxide activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase resulting in increased synthesis of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in the smooth muscle cells of the corpus cavernosum. The cGMP in turn triggers smooth muscle relaxation, allowing increased blood flow into the penis, resulting in erection. The tissue concentration of cGMP is regulated by both the rates of synthesis and degradation via phosphodiesterases (PDEs). The most abundant PDE in the human corpus cavernosum is the cGMPspecific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5); therefore, the inhibition of PDE5 enhances erectile function by increasing the amount of cGMP.
An orally disintegrating form, marketed as Staxyn, has been gaining approvals in countries such as the United States[1] and Canada.[2]
Vardenafil’s indications and contra-indications are the same as with other PDE5 inhibitors; it is closely related in function to sildenafil citrate (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis). The difference between the vardenafil molecule and sildenafil citrate is a nitrogen atom’s position and the change of sildenafil’spiperazine ring methyl group to an ethyl group. Tadalafil is structurally different from both sildenafil and vardenafil. Vardenafil’s relatively short effective time is comparable to but somewhat longer than sildenafil’s.
Beyond its indications for erectile dysfunction, vardenafil may be effective in the treatment of premature ejaculation, where it may significantly increase the time from vaginal penetration to ejaculation.[3]
The common, adverse drug reactions (side-effects) are the same as with other PDE5 inhibitors. The frequent vardenafil-specific side-effect is nausea; the infrequent side-effects are abdominal pain, back pain, photosensitivity, abnormal vision, eye pain, facial edema, hypotension, palpitation,tachycardia, arthralgia, myalgia, rash, itch, and priapism.
One possibly serious, but rare, side-effect with vardenafil is heart attack. Also, in rare cases, vardenafil use may cause priapism, a very painful emergency condition that can cause impotence if left untreated.[4]
On 18 October 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that a warning about possible deafness (sudden hearing loss) would be added to the drug labels of Vardenafil, and other PDE5 inhibitors.[5]
Vardenafil, as with all PDE5 inhibitors, should not be used by men taking nitrate medications, because combining them with vardenafil might provoke potentially life-threatening hypotension (low blood pressure).
Further, Vardenafil causing lengthening of the QT interval. Therefore it should not be taken by men taking other medications that affect the QT interval (such as amiodarone).
It is available in 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg doses in round orange tablets. The normal starting dose is 10 mg (roughly equivalent to 50 mg of sildenafil). Vardenafil should be taken 1 to 2 hours prior to sexual activity, with a maximum dose frequency of once per day. In some territories, such as the UK, only certain doses may be available.
Vardenafil is also available under the name Staxyn as a tablet which dissolves on the tongue rather than being swallowed in the form of a pill.
STAXYN is an oral therapy for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. This monohydrochloride salt of vardenafil is a selective inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific PDE5.
Vardenafil HCl is designated chemically as piperazine, 1-[[3-(1,4-dihydro-5-methyl-4-oxo-7-propylimidazo[5,1f][1,2,4]triazin-2-yl)-4-ethoxyphenyl]sulfonyl]-4-ethyl-, monohydrochloride and has the following structural formula:
Vardenafil HCl is a nearly colorless, solid substance with a molecular weight of 579.1 g/mol and a solubility of 0.11 mg/mL in water.
LEVITRA
TRIHYDRATE, HCL SALT
vardenafil hydrochloride is piperazine, 1-[[3-(1,4-dihydro-5-methyl-4-oxo-7-propylimidazo[5,1-f][1,2,4]triazin-2-yl)-4-ethoxyphenyl]sulfonyl]-4-ethyl-, mono -hydrochloride and can be structurally represented by Formula I.
The monohydrochloride salt of vardenafil is a selective inhibitor of cyclic guaosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). It is commercially available in products sold under the brand name LEVITRA formulated as 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg film-coated tablets.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,362,178 B1 discloses vardenafil, its related compounds and processes for their preparation. The patent describes a process in which vardenafil is obtained by recrystallization in ether in Example 19. Vardenafil produced as per Example 19 is hereinafter referred as “crystalline Form I” of vardenafil. The patent also describes processes for the preparation of its monohydrochloride and dihydrochloride salts, which are formed in a combination of ether and dichloromethane. The patent also describes a process for the preparation of vardenafil monohydrochloride trihydrate.
U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2005/0203298 also describes a process for the preparation of vardenafil, and its monohydrochloride trihydrate.
Chemical synthesis of vardenafil has mostly been directed to the preparation of the trihydrate of monohydrochloride of vardenafil.
In WO 99/24433, sulphonamide-substituted imidazotriazinones are described as potent inhibitors of either one or more of the cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate-metabolizing phosphodiesterases (cGMP PDEs). According to the nomenclature of Beavo and Reifsnyder (Trends in Pharmacol. Sci. 11, 150-155, 1990), these cGMP PDEs are the phosphodiesterase isoenzymes PDE-I, PDE-II and PDE-V.
According to WO 99/24433, the sulphonamide-substituted imidazotriazinones described therein are prepared from corresponding 2-ethoxyphenyl-substituted imidazotriazinones by reaction with chlorosulphonic acid and subsequent reaction with an appropriate amine, as is illustrated by the following scheme (R1 to R6 here have the meanings indicated in WO 99/24433):
In this process, highly reactive chlorosulphonic acid has to be used as a reagent. Moreover, the imidazotriazinonesulphonyl chlorides formed as intermediates are sensitive to hydrolysis, which, in particular in the conversion of this preparation process to the industrial scale, can lead to not inconsiderable yield variations.
It was therefore the object of the present invention to make available a process for the preparation of sulphonamide-substituted imidazotriazinones in which the disadvantages of the above process known from the prior art are avoided.
This object is achieved according to the present invention by a process as in claim 1. In particular, in the process according to the invention as in claim 1 the use of chlorosulphonic acid is avoided by introduction of the sulphonic acid via a reaction with sulphuric acid and subsequent reaction with thionyl chloride. Moreover, the reaction with thionyl chloride and the subsequent reaction with an amine is carried out in a one-pot process, so that the imidazotriazinonesulphonyl chloride intermediate, which is sensitive to hydrolysis, does not need to be isolated. By means of this, yield variations on account of partial hydrolysis of this intermediate can be excluded. As a result of these advantages, the process according to the invention is much simpler to carry out on the industrial scale than the process described in WO 99/24433.
