Overactive bladder (OAB)
 OAB is a symptom syndrome.
 OAB is a filling disorder in which abnormal sensations
leads to urinary urgency, frequency and incontinence.
Overactive bladder (OAB)
 ICS (International Continence Society, 2002) definition:
 Urgency, with or without urge incontinence,
usually with frequency and nocturia
 In the absence of obvious pathologic or metabolic
disorders (such as UTI, BPE or bladder cancer,
which might cause such symptoms)
Prevalence of OAB
 European: 16.6% (age ≧40 y/o)
female: 17.4%
male: 15.6%
 USA: 16.4% (age>18y/o)
female: 16.9%

Pharmacological therapy of OAB
Myogenic and urothelial signaling pathway
Myogenic and urothelial signaling pathway
Two types of detrusor contraction
 Voiding contraction:
 well coordinated bladder contraction caused by release
of Ach and other contractant transmitters, eg ATP, from
cholinergic nerves.
 requires parasympathetic output from sacral spinal cord.
 Spontaneous (autonomous) contractile activity:
 occurs during bladder filling
Pharmacological therapy
Anticholinergic agnets
 Antimuscarinics are efficacious, safe, and well-
tolerated treatments for OAB.
 These agents currently remain the first-line
pharmacologic treatment for OAB.
Chapple CR, Eur Urol 2008
Autonomic Efferent Innervation Contributing to Bladder
Contraction and Urine Storage
Sensory Innervation of the Bladder
Antimuscarinics: site of action within bladder wall
Antimuscarinic mechamism of action
 Detrusor muscle
→inhibit Ach binding to M receptor
→ stablize det muscle
→ ↑ bladder capacity
 Sensory receptors in uro/suburothelium
→ ↓ afferent nerve activity (Aδ-fiber and C-fiber )
 Significant reductions in urinary frequency,
urgency and UUI episodes
Affinity for muscarinic receptor subtypes
Physiologic Effect Clinical Impact
M1 The receptor may play an important role in
cognition
↓ M1 :↓cognitive adverse effects
M2 •80 % (detrusor muscle) : M2
•detrusor smooth muscle contraction
(indirectly):
↓muscle relaxation of β- adrenoceptors
↓ M2 :↓ cardiac adverse effects
M3 •20% (detrusor muscle): M3
•the main receptor subtype responsible for
normal micturition contraction
Overly aggressive M3 blockade
→ constipation

•Reduces the potential
for cognitive adverse
effects
Quaternary amines
 Trospium chloride
 Non-selectivity for M receptor subtype
 Low biological availability
 Cross BBB to a limited extent
 Few cognitive effect
 Trospium ER: once daily
 Launched in 2008
 Lower max plasma concentration
 Decrease incidence of side-effect and increase tolerability
Tertiary amine
 Oxybutynin
 Propiverine
 Solifenacin
 Darifenacin
 Tolterodine
 Fesoterodine
Oxybutynin
 3 formulations: IR, ER, transdermal patch
 Well documented efficacy
 Active metabolite, N-desmethyl oxybutynin: higher
affinity for M1/M3 receptor over M2
 Relative non-selectiviy for bladder
 Common AEs: dry mouth, constipation, dyspepsia
 Poor long-term tolerability
Oxybutynin topical gel
 FDA approval in Jan 2009
 once-daily to abdomen, thigh, shoulder, or upper arm
 Evolution of transdermal gel may allow greater
tolerability
 Improve compliance compared with previously
available OXY formulations.
Propiverine
 Anticholinergic and calcium channel blocking actions
 Popular drug for detrusor overactivity in Germany,
Austria and Japan.
Tolterodine
 FDA approval for tx of OAB in 1998
 Two formulations: IR(2mg,bid) and ER(4mg,qd)
 Selectivity for bladder M receptor over salivary glands
 ER tolterodine: more effective and better tolerability
Solifenacin
 Launched in Europe in 2004
 Competitive , selective M1 and M3 receptor antagonist
 Higher potency against M3 receptor in SM than
salivary gland
 Selectivity for bladder over salivary gland was
greater than tolterodine, oxybutynin, darifenacin or
atropine
Darifenacin
 Launched in 2004 in Europe and North America
 Highly selective M3 receptor antagonist
 5 fold higher affinity for M3 receptor relative to M1
 Salivary responses are inhibited at doses 6–10-fold higher
than those required to inhibit bladder responses.
 Common AEs: mild-to-moderate dry mouth, constipation
with a CNS and cardiac safety profile
 Most M3 specific of newer anti-muscarinic agents
 Offer a better balance between efficacy and unwanted effects
Fesoterodine
 Active metabolite: 5-hydroxymethy tolterodine (5-HMT)
 lower permeability across BBB and gut wall due to its
lipophilic properties
 Providing advantage over tolterodine with respect to side
effect profile
Adverse events of antimuscarinics
 Due to inhibition of muscarinic receptors in organs other
than bladder
 Intensity of side effects varies significantly dependent on:
 1) Receptor selectivity
 2) Bladder selectivity
 3) Other physicochemical properties
(lipophilicity, molecular size, polarity) that influence diffusion and
the ability to cross BBB

GW-427353 (Solabegron®, GlaxoSmithKline),
YM-178 (Acetanilide®, Astellas)
KUC-7483 (Kissei Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.).
Mirabegron – a novel β3 agonist
 Japan approval in 2011: 25 mg/day dose level
 FDA approval in 2012 June: 25 or 50 mg/day dose in
the USA
 Europe and Canada
 For symptomatic treatment of urgency, increased
micturition frequency and/or UUI~ OAB syndrome.
β3 agonist- mechanism of action
 Release nitric oxide (NO) by increasing intracellular Ca2+
through cAMP accumulation
 Also inhibits detrusor muscle contraction by releasing an
urothelial derived inhibiting factor (UDIF)
β3-AR agonists helps bladder storing capacity through:
 Direct inhibition of detrusor
 Inhibition of bladder afferent neurotransduction
~ without impairing bladder contraction during voiding
β3 -AR agonists :
pronounced effect on spontaneous
contractile activity in det muscle in vitro
~an important basis for their clinical effects
Muscarinic and β3-adrenoceptor mediated pathways mediating
relaxation of the detrusor
β3 AR agonists- Mirabegron
 Rapidly absorbed after oral administration
 Circulation in plasma as unchanged form
 Administered dose: 55% excreted in urine, mainly unchanged
form
 Highly lipophilic
 Metabolized in the liver via multiple pathways, mainly by
cytochrome P450 3A4 and 2D6 (CYP2D6).
Takusagawa S et al. 2012
Pharmacokinetics of Mirabegron
 Absorption:
 Tmax: 3-4hr
 T1/2: ~40 hr
 Bioavailability:
 ~29% at a 25mg dose
 34% at a 50mg dose
 Terminal elimination half-life: ~50 hr
 Excretion: in urine and faeces mainly as unchanged form
Prespecified pooled efficacy analysis and pooled
safety analysis of three randomised, double-blind,
placebo-controlled, phase III studies
(SCORPIO, ARIES,and CAPRICORN)
Adjusted mean change from baseline in mean number
of micturitions/24 hr
Adjusted mean change from baseline in the mean
number of incontinence episodes/24 hr
Improvements in frequency, urgency incontinence,
mean volume voided/micturition
Safety of Mirabegron
 50 or 100mg: did not cause QTc prolongation
 Change from baseline to final visit for PR( 50mg) ~
approximately 1 bpm.
 Associated with an increase of 1mm Hg in BP vs. placebo
 No clinically relevant effects on PVR volume.
 No episodes of acute urinary retention.
 Didn’t increase intraocular pressure (IOP) in healthy
volunteers (mirabegron 100mg orally QD )
Malik Mv et al. 2012, Chapple CR et al. 2013, Novack GD et al. 2013
Adverse events~ dry mouth
 The North American phase III trial~
 Most common for tolterodine : 10.1 %
 2.8 % for both mirabegron doses (50, 100mg)
 Placebo rate :2.6 %
Nitti et al. J uro. 2012
Adverse events~ dry mouth
antimuscarinics vs. β3 agonist
 Dry mouth: most common AE of anticholinergic drugs.
 Incidence of dry mouth with 50 / 100 mg mirabegron:
similar to placebo.
 Mirabegron may be very useful for pts with OAB who
experience AE secondary to anticholinergic agents.
 Mirabegron causes less dry mouth, constipation, urinary
retention, or blurred vision than tolterodine.
Chapple C et al. 2013, Khullar V et al.2013, Nitti VW et al. 2012
Adverse events~ discontinuation rates
 Placebo: 3.8 %
 Mirabegron 50mg: 4.1 %
 Mirabegron 100mg: 4.4 %
Nitti et al. J urol. 2012
Theoretical advantages of
mirabegron over antimuscarinics
 Two other safety advantages over antimuscarinics:
First:
 Mirabegron could be helpful in cognitively impaired p’ts.
 Most commonly CNS AEs in antimuscarinics: headache,
somnolence, and cognitive impairment.
 All five muscarinic receptor subtypes (M1–M5) in brain
tissue and the possibility of BBB penetration.
Theoretical advantages of
mirabegron over antimuscarinics
 Two other safety advantages over antimuscarinics:
Second:
 Mirabegron decreases frequency of rhythmic bladder
contractions during filling phase without suppressing
amplitude during micturition. (animal study)
 Could also be useful for treating OAB symptoms associated
with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO),with a lower risk of
voiding difficulty than with antimuscarinics
Theoretical advantages of
mirabegron over antimuscarinics
 Favorable efficacy/tolerability ratio of mirabegron:
 This new therapeutic class could be considered as first-line
treatment of OAB
 Specifically in cognitively impaired and OAB p’ts with
symptoms associated with PVR due to BOO.
=> must be proven by RCT in comparison with placebo
=> head-to head comparison against anticholinergics
Anticholinergic drugs vs. Mirabegron
~At present ~
 Anticholinergic drugs:
~should remain the first-line pharmacologic tx for OAB
until head-to-head comparative study eventually shows
that mirabegron has equivalent or superior efficacy.
 Mirabegron :
~considering mechanism of action, seems logical to use
mirabegron as second-line treatment for OAB p’ts who are
poor responders or intolerant to anticholinergics.
~ could be considered as first-line treatment in the future
Monotherapy vs. Combined Treatment
 Combination of an antimuscarinic and β3-AR agonists:
 Theoretically attractive
 There is evidence both in vitro and vivo supporting this
assumption.
 Mirabegron combination therapy with solifenacin
demonstrated greater efficacy than solifenacin 5 mg alone
on MVV and MF.

    Theoretical advantages of mirabegronover antimuscarinics  Two other safety advantages over antimuscarinics: Second:  Mirabegron decreases frequency of rhythmic bladder contractions during filling phase without suppressing amplitude during micturition. (animal study)  Could also be useful for treating OAB symptoms associated with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO),with a lower risk of voiding difficulty than with antimuscarinics
  • 93.
    Theoretical advantages of mirabegronover antimuscarinics  Favorable efficacy/tolerability ratio of mirabegron:  This new therapeutic class could be considered as first-line treatment of OAB  Specifically in cognitively impaired and OAB p’ts with symptoms associated with PVR due to BOO. => must be proven by RCT in comparison with placebo => head-to head comparison against anticholinergics
  • 94.
    Anticholinergic drugs vs.Mirabegron ~At present ~  Anticholinergic drugs: ~should remain the first-line pharmacologic tx for OAB until head-to-head comparative study eventually shows that mirabegron has equivalent or superior efficacy.  Mirabegron : ~considering mechanism of action, seems logical to use mirabegron as second-line treatment for OAB p’ts who are poor responders or intolerant to anticholinergics. ~ could be considered as first-line treatment in the future
  • 95.
    Monotherapy vs. CombinedTreatment  Combination of an antimuscarinic and β3-AR agonists:  Theoretically attractive  There is evidence both in vitro and vivo supporting this assumption.  Mirabegron combination therapy with solifenacin demonstrated greater efficacy than solifenacin 5 mg alone on MVV and MF.
