药理作用

肌萎缩性侧索硬化症(ALS)或运动神经元疾病是一种渐进的致命性疾病。该病有两种发病形式:肢体发病或延髓发病。两者均表现为上、下运动神经元丧失,导致渐进性和不可逆性的肌肉消瘦和无力。尽管该病发病机理尚未完全弄清,但谷氨酸毒性是神经元损伤的一种可能原因。因此目前已将能调节中枢神经系统中谷氨酸水平的药物作为可行性疗法。
苯并噻唑类药物利鲁唑就是这类抗谷氨酸药物,其神经保护作用机理复杂,涉及几个不同过程。已经知道的是它能抑制谷氨酸在突触前释放并能与受体结合防止谷氨酸的激活。本品也可使神经末梢及细胞体上的电位依赖性钠通道失活,刺激依赖G蛋白的信号传导过程。
在体外,本品能保护所培养的运动神经元免受谷氨酸激活的毒性影响,并防止ALS病人因缺氧或暴露于CSF中的毒性因素而导致的神经元死亡。在脊柱运动神经元变性的小鼠模型中,本品能改善其可动性。
药代动力学

口服给药后,本品能被迅速吸收,给药60-90min内达到血药浓度峰值。约90%的药物被吸收,绝对生物利用度为60%。本品经肝代谢,主要随尿排出,消除半衰期为9-15h。
临床研究

在最初的一项包括155例ALS患者的双盲研究中,本品治疗组病人12个月生存率为74%,而安慰剂组为58%。此外,延髓发病病人的1年生存率,本品与安慰剂组分别为73%和35%,而肢体发病病人的1年生存两者分别为74%和64%。研究还证实,经本品治疗的病人其肌肉减退明显较慢。
在第二项包括959例ALS病人的多中心双盲试验中,又一次证明本品治疗生存率明显较高(57%对50%)。但治疗18个月后肢体发病亚组与延髓发病亚组间或在肌肉测试中未发现有显著差异。
考虑到研究中ALS病人生存结果有较大差异,为对这些结果作进一步评价,还要使用cox模型(补偿已知的预后因素)。该模型证实治疗18个月后治疗组病人死亡危险率降低了35%。

Neuroprotective therapy of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

Riluzole

Mechanisms of action of riluzole.
Vitamin E
The therapeutic effect of vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) in ALS was investigated in a clinical study and published in the British journal “ALS“ in March 2001 (Desnuelle et al.). In this study in 298 ALS patients, one group was given 1000 mg vitamin E /day while another group of patients was treated with a placebo. Analysis showed a slight slowing of the disease in the early course of ALS but no influence on the middle and late phases of the disease and ALS patient survival. Thus, it was not possible to confirm that life was prolonged by vitamin E in a dose of 1000 mg/day. In September 2003 a high dose study with 5000 mg vitamin E/day was reported at the annual conference of the German Neurology Society. This was a multicentre and placebo controlled study in several European ALS centres, which was published by M. Graf and colleagues in late 2004. The results show that no statistically significant influence on the survival of ALS patients was achieved at a dosage of 5000 mg/day either. The delay in disease progression in the early stages of ALS was not investigated separately. On the basis of recent studies, a recommendation of vitamin E treatment cannot be made.

Lithium
On 04.02.2008 the results of the Italian Lithium Study in ALS were published for the first time (Fornai et al. PNAS;105:2052 2057). These are the results of research by neurobiology teams and a neurology department in Pisa, Rome and Novara. The article is a summary of the experiences of a randomised and open ALS therapy study in 44 ALS patients, which started in October 2005 and was conducted for 15 months. 16 patients were treated with a combination of riluzole and lithium carbonate, while 28 patients were treated with riluzole monotherapy. The lithium carbonate dosage was 300 mg (150 mg twice a day) with a possible increase in dose up to 450 mg/day. The target serum level was 0.4 to 0.8 mmol/l. The study groups (riluzole + lithium vs. riluzole monotherapy) showed similar baseline values with regard to the severity of the ALS (ALS FRS R), muscle strength (MRC scale) and respiratory function (forced vital capacity, FVC). As regards the age of the patients, there was a non significant difference between the lithium group (66.9 years) and the riluzole group (70.3 years). The authors report a positive treatment effect in the lithium group compared with riluzole monotherapy. In the lithium group, there was a reduction of 14.3% in the ALS FRS R score, whereas a reduction of 39.8% of this score was recorded with riluzole monotherapy. The Italian researchers also report that there was no death in the lithium group while 29% of the patients in the riluzole group died. The authors concluded that lithium may represent an effective treatment option in ALS.

The lithium in ALS study attracted substantial media attention (e.g. Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung of 06.02.2008) and generated a considerable potential for hope in ALS patients. According to assessments to date, the lithium study in ALS is an interesting starting point for further studies. At the same time, it must be emphasised that the complex data were overrated and simplified in the non scientific press and internet publications. The results so far unfortunately do not permit the conclusion that lithium provides a cure or highly effective treatment of ALS. The Italian lithium treatment study has several method related limitations, which should lead to a cautious interpretation of the data. For instance, the number of patients treated with lithium is much lower than the group given riluzole monotherapy (16 vs. 28 patients). In addition, the article does not state whether different observation periods were used in the lithium and riluzole groups. Against this background, the different mortality rates (0 vs. 29%) are not directly comparable. Moreover, it can be seen in the original data that the rate of progression of all the investigated parameters (ALS FRS R, FVC, MRC) was already poorer in the riluzole group at the start of the study and remained unchanged in both groups throughout the study . However, with a high grade medication effect, it would have been expected that there would be an increase in the therapeutic effect with an increase in the duration of treatment. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that ALS patients with a primarily better disease course were included in the lithium group. Because of these problems, stratification of ALS patients according to their rate of progression was undertaken in other ALS therapy studies even prior to inclusion in the study in order to avoid “distortion effects“ due to uneven allocation of patients with different rates of progression.
 
The small number of patients so far (n=16) and the method related limitations of the study unfortunately do not permit any general therapy recommendation for lithium in ALS. The risk of toxic effects of lithium in the event of overdose should be pointed out. Cardiac arrhythmias, disorders of consciousness, epileptic seizures, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea are possible with overdose. Because of the side effect profile, renal function tests, electrocardiography and thyroid function tests are required in every case.
 
To confirm a therapeutic effect of lithium in ALS, a placebo controlled study is planned, which is being prepared by the Italian research group in 100 ALS patients. Moreover, it can be assumed that the experiences of ALS patients will be communicated via web portals (http://alslithium.atspace.com, www.patientslikeme.com). The self description of individual ALS patients is no alternative to the planned controlled multicentre therapy study but is important for exchanging information about the effects, risks and limits of lithium medication in ALS.
 
Lithium treatment in ALS was practised repeatedly in previous decades. The previous use of this medication refers to the treatment of motor disinhibition (compulsive laughing and crying). Due to the mood stabilising effects of lithium, the drug was recommended in individual cases (e.g. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Practice, UNI MED Verlag 2002, editor B. Neundörfer). No effects on the course of the disease were identified from this previous experience with lithium although the dosages corresponded to those of the Italian lithium study.
 
Lithium is an established symptomatic treatment option for motor disinhibition. In this context, use of this medication is justified when the risk/benefit relationship is considered. Systematic analysis of the course of ALS in this group of patients will also help to assess the status of lithium in the treatment of ALS as fast and comprehensively as possible.

Creatine phosphate

An animal model of ALS produced by genetic engineering methods has been available for a few years, and can be employed in basic and therapy research of ALS. The transgenic mouse model of ALS allows rapid investigation of medications before a decision is made regarding their use in humans. These are mice produced by genetic engineering, which are given the human superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene including a mutation that causes ALS (SOD1 mouse model of ALS). The mutation carrying animal is born healthy and shows normal development. Only later in life does the SOD1 mouse develop progressive paralysis and disease symptoms that have parallels with the human form of ALS. Even before the onset of the clinical symptoms and at a very early stage of the disease, the ALS mouse exhibits obvious changes in the mitochondria, the components of the nerve cell that can be regarded as the energy producers of the neuron. Due to these findings, it was already suspected several years ago that a disturbance of the energy resources of the nerve cell contributes to the dysfunction and finally degeneration. Based on the hypothesis of a chronic energy deficit, an experimental treatment of the SOD1 animal model was conducted with creatine phosphate, a high energy substance. The results showed that survival of the SOD1 mouse model was prolonged by treatment with creatine phosphate. Biochemical tests yielded evidence that the prolongation of survival is due to neuroprotective effects on the motor neurons and not to strengthening of the musculature. On the basis of the information from the SOD1 mouse model, a therapeutic experiment with creatine phosphate in clinical practice also was recommended. At the international ALS conference in Melbourne, Australia in November 2002, data on the use of creatine phosphate in ALS patients were published for the first time. The results come from a placebo controlled study of creatine in association with riluzole. The research team of van den Berg, a neurologist at the University of Utrecht, Netherlands, found that creatine did not have a statistically significant effect on the survival of ALS patients. The conclusion from these study results was that treatment with this substance is not indicated in ALS.
