Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) is characterized by urinary urgency and increased urinary frequency, substantially affecting quality of life. Tamsulosin and mirabegron combination therapy has been studied as a safe and effective treatment option for patients with OAB. This study evaluated the effects of combining these two drugs on their pharmacokinetics and safety profiles in healthy Korean males. In this open-label, fixed-sequence, three-period, drug-drug interaction phase 1 study, a total of 36 male participants were administered multiple doses of tamsulosin alone (0.2 mg once daily), mirabegron alone (50 mg once daily), or a combination of both drugs. The results showed that the combination of tamsulosin and mirabegron increased tamsulosin exposure in the plasma by approximately 40%. In contrast, the maximum plasma concentration of mirabegron was reduced by approximately 17% when administered with tamsulosin. No clinically significant changes in the safety profiles, vital signs, or clinical laboratory test results were observed in this study. In conclusion, there were no clinically relevant drug-drug interactions between tamsulosin and mirabegron in terms of pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability, suggesting that their combination could be a promising treatment option for patients with OAB.

Abstract
Drug repositioning is the identification of interactions between drugs and target proteins in pharmaceutical sciences. Traditional large-scale validation through chemical experiments is time-consuming and expensive, while drug repositioning can drastically decrease the cost and duration taken by traditional drug development. With the rapid advancement of high-throughput technologies and the explosion of various biological and medical data, computational drug repositioning methods have been used to systematically identify potential drug-target interactions. Some of them are based on a particular class of machine learning algorithms called kernel methods. In this paper, we propose a new machine learning prediction method combining multiple kernels into a tripartite heterogeneous drug-target-disease interaction spaces in order to integrate multiple sources of biological information simultaneously. This novel network algorithm extends the traditional drug-target interaction bipartite graph to the third disease layer. Meanwhile, Gaussian kernel functions on heterogeneous networks and the regularized least square method of the Kronecker product are used to predict new drug-target interactions. The values of AUPR (area under the precision-recall curve) and AUC (the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) of the proposed algorithm are significantly improved. Especially, the AUC values are improved to 0.99, 0.99, 0.97, and 0.96 on four benchmark data sets. These experimental results substantiate that the network topology can be used for predicting drug-target interactions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Overactive bladder is a prevalent symptom complex that affects the patient's quality of life. Any disruption between the neuronal micturition pathway can lead to bladder overactivity. Neurogenic causes, myogenic causes, aging, bladder outlet obstruction, sex, and psychological factors are some of the factors contributing to bladder overactivity. The complaint of any symptoms of OAB, which is highly prevalent and affects overall QOL, often needs therapeutic interventions. When conservative therapy methods fail, the addition of medications is recommended. The most commonly used agents for the treatment of OAB are antimuscarinic drugs. New classes of drugs, such as beta-3 agonists, have enriched our pharmacologic armamentarium. AREAS COVERED In this review, with a special focus on oral pharmacological treatments, we discussed the definition, etiology, symptoms, diagnosis, and management of OAB. EXPERT OPINION OAB is a multifactorial condition with every patient presenting with a different collection of symptoms and signs. Medical therapies should be given in conjunction with behavioral therapies. Using high or low doses, flexible doses, and stopping or changing the medications are interchangeable strategies based on the level of treatment efficacy and patient satisfaction.

J Clin Diagn Res 2015; 9:FC05-9. [PMID: 25954630 PMCID: PMC4413078 DOI: 10.7860/jcdr/2015/11884.5677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2014] [Accepted: 02/06/2015] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Darifenacin and trospium are the commonly used antimuscarinics in the management of overactive bladder (OAB). Constipation is the second most common treatment related side-effect. Though its incidence with the above two medications is known, data on their comparative severity and impact on patient's well-being is lacking. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty subjects with OAB included in the study were randomized in 1:1 fashion to receive either darifenacin 7.5 mg OD or trospium extended release 60 mg OD. Treatment response was monitored using overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS). The severity of constipation was assessed using McMillan & Williams Constipation assessment scale (CAS), Bristol stool form scale and Knowles-Eccersley-Scott-Symptom (KESS) questionnaire score administered at baseline, 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. RESULTS OABSS improved significantly, -5.80 ± 3.99 (p = 0.0005) and -5.27 ± 2.98 (p = 0.0005) in darifenacin and trospium groups respectively. However, the difference between the two groups was not significant either at 2 weeks (p = 0.952) or 4 weeks (p = 0.654) of treatment. A significant decrease in stool consistency was noted with darifenacin treatment (p < 0.05), but the same was not seen with trospium (p = 0.076). There was no significant difference in scores of KESS questionnaire between baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks, both within the group and between the groups (p > 0.05). McMillan & Williams CAS scores increased at week 2 and week 4, in comparison with baseline scores in both darifenacin and trospium treated patients, however, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Darifenacin and trospium are equally efficacious and comparable in tolerability in terms of constipation severity and its impact on patient well-being.
