A multicentre randomised, double-blind parallel group study has been carried out in order to confirm the antiemetic efficacy of orally administered ondansetron. A total of 259 chemotherapy-naive breast cancer patients treated with a 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide (FAC) or 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, cyclophosphamide (FEC) regimen were randomly assigned to ondansetron (OND) 8 mg tablet or alizapride (ALI) 150 mg intravenous (i.v.) injection, prior to chemotherapy. These treatments were then followed by OND 8 mg tablet or ALI 50 mg tablet, respectively, 8 to 12 h later. Oral treatment was then continued twice a day over 3-5 days. The number of emetic episodes (EE = vomits+retches) and the grade of nausea were recorded; quality of life was assessed using a specific questionnaire. Of the 254 patients analysed for efficacy, complete or major control (success: 0-2 EE) over the 24 h following start of chemotherapy was obtained in 81% of the OND group compared with 47% of the ALI group (P < 0.001). A significant difference in favour of OND was also observed for nausea (P < 0.0001). For on days 2 to 4 emesis, the arm containing OND was superior to that with ALI (worst day analysis): 77% success versus 63% (P < 0.002). The overall control of emesis (from day 1 to day 4) was better with OND (64% patients success in the OND group versus 41% in the ALI group; P < 0.0001). At the end of the study the number of patients wishing to receive the same anti-emetic treatment for their next course was 83% for OND compared with 54% for ALI (P < 0.0001). In terms of quality of life in relation to emesis phenomena, OND was significantly superior to ALI (P = 0.04). Both treatments were well tolerated. In the prevention of the prolonged emesis induced by FAC/FEC-type emetogenic chemotherapy, orally administered OND was superior to ALI, given as an i.v. injection and followed by tablets.

The efficacy of sumatriptan, a 5-HT1 receptor agonist, in patients with migraine attacks occurring despite prophylactic treatment with oral dihydroergotamine, was assessed in a double-blind placebo-controlled study involving 76 patients. Thirty-seven patients were treated with a subcutaneous injection of 6 mg sumatriptan self-administered with an auto-injector and 39 with placebo given by the same route. Patients having inadequate relief were allowed to use a second injection of test medication 1 hour later and rescue treatment between 2 hours and 24 hours after the first dose. Headache relief was achieved within 2 hours after sumatriptan in 26 patients (70%) compared to 8 patients (21%) in the placebo group (P < 0.0001). Of these patients, 19 (51%) and 3 (8%) were, respectively, pain free at this time. A second injection of sumatriptan was used by 8 (22%) patients compared to 30 (77%) patients in the placebo group (P < 0.0001), whereas rescue medication was used respectively by 13 (35%) and 22 (58%) patients (P < 0.024). The adverse event profile of sumatriptan was not affected by the concomitant use of dihydroergotamine and side-effects were all minor and transient. Patient satisfaction was significantly higher in the sumatriptan group (75%) compared to patient satisfaction with placebo (16%). These results show that the high efficacy rate of subcutaneous sumatriptan and its safety profile remain unchanged in migraine patients receiving oral dihydroergotamine as prophylaxis.

Objectives. To evaluate the efficacy of self-administered subcutaneous sumatriptan in the acute treatment of early-morning migraine attacks. Design. A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over study. Setting. Thirteen neurology centres in France. Subjects. Patients of either sex, 18–65 years old, with two to six attacks of migraine (according to the International Headache Society (IHS) criteria, with or without aura) per month, of which at least two had to be early-morning migraine attacks. One-hundred-and-one patients were included, 96 being evaluable for the first attack and 81 for the cross-over design. Interventions. Two migraine attacks (grade 2/3) were treated with sumatriptan (6 mg) or placebo, with an optional second injection 1–24 h later. Main outcome measures. The primary end-point was headache relief: reduction in headache severity from grade 2/3 (moderate/severe) to grade 1/0 (mild/none) 2 h after treatment. Results. Sumatriptan was superior to placebo for headache relief (32 [78%] vs. 11 [28%] at the first attack; 29 [73%] vs. 8 [20%] at the second; P < 0.001). Because of a significant carry-over effect for some of the secondary end-points, a parallel-group analysis of the first attack was performed, which confirmed a significantly higher efficacy of sumatriptan for all end-points: pain-free rate (22 [46%] vs. 7 [15%]; P = 0.001) and use of a second injection (26 [53%] vs. 38 [81%]; P = 0.004). Sumatriptan was preferred by 74% of patients vs. 17% for placebo, and 9% expressed no preference (P < 0.0001). After complete relief, headache reappeared in 8/23 (35%) patients with sumatriptan and 3/7 (43%) with placebo. Adverse events were significantly more frequent with sumatriptan but they were minor and transient. Conclusion. Subcutaneous sumatriptan auto-injection is an effective and well-tolerated acute treatment of early-morning migraine attacks allowing earlier return to normal activity.

Cisplatin is one of the most effective cytotoxic drugs used in the treatment of certain neoplasms, but is also one which most frequently induces nausea and vomiting. Combination of corticosteroids with ondansetron enables greater control of emesis than that obtained with ondansetron alone, but some patients still experience symptoms. The objective of this randomised, double-blind, multicentre, parallel group study was to examine the benefit of the addition of metopimazine (MPZ), a dopamine receptor antagonist, to the combination of ondansetron + methylprednisolone (O + M) in the prevention of cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting in patients uncontrolled [i.e., at least one emetic episode (vomiting and/or retching) or moderate or severe nausea] during their previous course of cisplatin based chemotherapy, despite antiemetic treatment with a combination of a 5-hydroxytryptamine3 receptor antagonist (5HT3) with a corticosteroid. The impact of the treatment on the patients' quality of life was also evaluated using two specific questionnaires the FLIC (Functional Living Index for Cancer), and the FLIE (Functional Living Index for Emesis).The intent-to-treat population consisted of 338 patients; 168 patients received the triple combination of ondansetron, methylprednisolone and metopimazine (O + M + MPZ), and 170 patients received ondansetron plus methylprednisolone (O + M). Tumour type was comparable in the two treatment groups, the most prevalent being lung cancer. Patients in group O + M + MPZ received ondansetron as an 8 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on day 1 followed by 8 mg tablets b.i.d. from D2 to D3, methylprednisolone as a 120 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on D1 and followed by 16 mg tablets b.i.d. from D2 to D3, and metopimazine as a 40 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on D1 and followed by 15 mg capsules b.i.d. on D2 to D3. Patients in group O + M received treatment with ondansetron and methylprednisolone as above.Analysis of the primary efficacy criterion (absence of emetic episode throughout the course of chemotherapy) revealed a success rate of 53% in the group receiving O + M + MPZ and 38% in the group receiving O + M (P = 0.008). Analysis of the secondary efficacy criteria (nausea grade, number of emetic episodes and global patient satisfaction on D1 and from D2 to D3) showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups, in favour of the O + M + MPZ treatment. The scores obtained with the FLIC and FLIE questionnaires did not reveal any significant differences between the two groups. Treatment was well tolerated in both groups.The study showed that the addition of MPZ to the combination O + M was an effective and well tolerated antiemetic treatment, with a 15% increase in efficacy compared to the combination in patients not controlled during their previous course of chemotherapy. The addition of metopimazine to existing regimens containing 5HT3 receptor antagonist and steroid combination should be considered for patients who fail on their previous course.

A multicentre randomised, double-blind parallel group study has been carried out in order to confirm the antiemetic efficacy of orally administered ondansetron. A total of 259 chemotherapy-naive breast cancer patients treated with a 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide (FAC) or 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, cyclophosphamide (FEC) regimen were randomly assigned to ondansetron (OND) 8 mg tablet or alizapride (ALI) 150 mg intravenous (i.v.) injection, prior to chemotherapy. These treatments were then followed by OND 8 mg tablet or ALI 50 mg tablet, respectively, 8 to 12 h later. Oral treatment was then continued twice a day over 3-5 days. The number of emetic episodes (EE = vomits+retches) and the grade of nausea were recorded; quality of life was assessed using a specific questionnaire. Of the 254 patients analysed for efficacy, complete or major control (success: 0-2 EE) over the 24 h following start of chemotherapy was obtained in 81% of the OND group compared with 47% of the ALI group (P0.001). A significant difference in favour of OND was also observed for nausea (P0.0001). For on days 2 to 4 emesis, the arm containing OND was superior to that with ALI (worst day analysis): 77% success versus 63% (P0.002). The overall control of emesis (from day 1 to day 4) was better with OND (64% patients success in the OND group versus 41% in the ALI group; P0.0001). At the end of the study the number of patients wishing to receive the same anti-emetic treatment for their next course was 83% for OND compared with 54% for ALI (P0.0001). In terms of quality of life in relation to emesis phenomena, OND was significantly superior to ALI (P = 0.04). Both treatments were well tolerated. In the prevention of the prolonged emesis induced by FAC/FEC-type emetogenic chemotherapy, orally administered OND was superior to ALI, given as an i.v. injection and followed by tablets.

Six hundred and twenty-eight courses of cisplatin containing chemotherapy were recorded in patients receiving up to three courses of cytotoxic drugs with ondansetron (OND) given as an antiemetic agent (32 mg as a single iv dose or as a continuous infusion). The sample size of patients decreases from one course to another due to phenomena which may or may not be related to the chemotherapy and the anti-emetic treatment or to the evolution of the cancer disease. For patients with incomplete response to ondansetron, withdrawals could be related to an insufficient antiemetic effect as is known with other antiemetic drugs. Conversely, it is not the case for patients who had a complete response. Therefore, to avoid any bias due to patient selection, the analysis is based on the probability of changes from complete to incomplete response or from complete to complete response between two subsequent courses (i and i + 1). The response to OND treatment for the course i + 1 depends not only on the efficacy during this course (i + 1) but also on the response during the prior course (i). A discrete time-dependent statistical model (Markov chain) was used to test the evolution of the probability of remaining in complete response. This probability was equal to 66% between the first and the second course, and to 88% between the second and the third one. The probability of remaining in complete response significantly increased during repeated courses (P = 0.001). These results show that in patients for whom OND treatment allows a complete antiemetic control during the first course of chemotherapy, the probability of remaining with no emetic episodes at all increases during the two subsequent courses.

The feasibility, the validity and reliability of the questionnaire "Qualité de Vie et Migraine" (QVM) were assessed during a study performed on 107 patients recruited either in neurological departments in hospitals (N = 58) or by G.P. (N = 49). The study was designed as a Test-Retest, the self-questionnaire being filled twice at an interval of one week. The filling-in time was an average 7 min in hospital and 11 min for G.P.'s patients. The missing values were quite rare, between 1% and 2%. The items were assessed "very interesting" or "interesting" by 94% of the patients, and "easy" or "fairly easy to understand" by 96%. The principal component analysis performed on the whole sample allowed the extraction of 4 meaningful factors which were in agreement with the pre-defined structure of the questionnaire QVM. The 1st axis was a factor of psychological repercussion, the 2nd axis was a factor of functional and somatic repercussion, the 3rd axis was a factor of social repercussion and the 4th one was a factor of disturbance generated by the treatment. The QVM questionnaire allowed the calculation of a global index of quality of life and indexes according to the multifactorial structure. The global index was significantly higher for the most severe patients recruited in hospital, which means that the repercussion of migraine on quality of life was greater than for G.P.'s patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

This randomised, single-blind, parallel-group study was carried out in 48 French pneumology centres to compare the anti-emetic efficacy of ondansetron and an alizapride plus methylprednisolone (ALI/MPS) combination in patients receiving high-dose cisplatin. A total of 220 patients were recruited of whom 209 were evaluable (100 on ondansetron and 109 on ALI/MPS). Thirty minutes before cisplatin, patients received either ondansetron (8 mg i.v.) or alizapride (4 mg/kg i.v.) combined with methylprednisolone (500 mg i.v.). The ondansetron and alizapride injections were repeated 4 and 8 h later. Thereafter, patients received oral ondansetron (8 mg) or alizapride (50 mg) 3 times daily for 5 days. Ondansetron was significantly superior to ALI/MPS in the control of acute emesis (p less than 0.001); 88/100 (88%) of ondansetron, and 69/109 (63%) of ALI/MPS patients experienced less than 3 emetic episodes. Similarly, ondansetron was superior to ALI/MPS for the control of acute nausea (visual analogue scale at 24 h; 13 vs. 22 mm respectively, p = 0.0012). The superiority of ondansetron over days 2-6 was not as great as that over the first 24 h, although there was a trend in favour of ondansetron. More patients treated with ondansetron wished to take the same anti-emetic treatment again (83% for ondansetron vs. 56% for ALI/MPS, p less than 0.001). Both treatments were well tolerated. This study shows that ondansetron is superior to a benzamide-corticosteroid combination in the control of acute cisplatin-induced emesis.

Serotonin (5-Hydroxytryptamine) seems to play a dominant role in triggering vomiting induced by cytotoxic agents through the stimulation of 5-HT3 receptors. They have been observed in the GI tract as well as in the brain (area postrema). Ondansetron is a specific antagonist of 5-HT3 serotonin receptors. Its anti-emetic activity is very powerful in the ferret. The availability of an injectable or oral form of this product allows the overall treatment of acute and delayed emesis and its administration is in accordance with different schedules: single IV injection or a continuous 24 hour infusion or repeated IV injection followed by oral treatment. The pharmacokinetics of the drug are as follows: absorption begins about 30 minutes after the administration per os, its biodisponibility is about 60%, its clearance: 20 ml/minute and its elimination half life about 3 hours. Different double blind studies, carried out in parallel groups or in cross over, demonstrated the superiority of ondansetron over metoclopramide in the control of nausea and vomiting, whether or not the chemotherapy contained cisplatin; a more recent study shows also that ondansetron was superior to alizapride and methylprednisolone in combination. Side effects of ondansetron do not include extrapyramidal symptoms but only headaches and constipation. The use of ondansetron improves the well-being of patients receiving chemotherapy and increases protocol compliance.

This randomized multicentre study in elderly hypertensives with two unbalanced groups (2 patients under labetalol for 1 patient under nifedipine) compared the efficacy and safety of labetalol, whose dosage could be adjusted (1, 2, then 3 tablets/day) according to blood pressure level (BP greater than or equal to 160/95 mmHg), to that of nifedipine given at its recommended dosage (2 tablets/day). The treatment period lasted 6 weeks (D42). The main judgment criteria was the rate of patients with normalized BP under treatment (SBP less than 160 and DBP less than 95 mmHg). The analysis was carried out on 170 patients, 112 labetalol and 58 nifedipine. Both groups were homogeneous when entering into the study. The only difference was a higher rate of smokers in the nifedipine group compared with labetalol's (29% vs 13%). The rate of patients with normalized BP (SBP less than 160 and DBP less than 95 mmHg) were 66% in the labetalol group and 48% in the nifedipine's (p less than 0.05). Treatment withdrawals for all causes during the study were more frequent in the nifedipine group (19%) than in the labetalol's (6%). Treatment withdrawals for adverse events occurred in 3.5% of patients in the labetalol group and in 12% of the nifedipine's. The overall adverse events rate was 9% with labetalol and 29% with nifedipine (p less than 0.001). In this comparative study in elderly hypertensives, labetalol given in a dose titration schedule proved significantly superior to nifedipine, given at recommended maximal dosage, in terms of both BP control and side effects profile.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The purpose of this multicenter randomised, double-blind and cross-over study was to compare the antihypertensive effects of labetalol (L) and captopril (C) in 42 moderate hypertensive patients (mean age: 52 years). The drugs were given during two 4-weeks periods at the end of which the systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressures (DBP) were measured at rest in supine and standing positions. The assessment of the quality of life was realized with 4 scales completed by the practitioner [anxiety, depression, well-being, visual analog scale (VAS)] and 4 scales of auto-assessment completed by the patient [2 VAS, well-being, sub-scale of pleasure]. At the end of the first treatment's period (D28), both drugs had decreased significantly supine SBP and DBP (p less than 0.001), standing DBP (L = p less than 0.01; C = p less than 0.05), while only L lowered supine SBP (p less than 0.01). The cross-over analysis was unable to conclude, due to the number of patients and a significant interaction which reduced its power. Thus the effect of the first treatment's period seemed to influence the efficacy of the second one. The percentages of patients with a controlled BP were respectively: after 4 weeks of treatment, L = 61 p. 100 vs C = 42 p. 100 and at the end of study (D56), L = 67 p. 100 vs C = 64 p. 100. The cross-over analysis didn't show any difference between the effects of L and C on the quality of life.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of labetalol, an alpha and beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent in 32 patients aged from 72 to 97 years (mean = 85 years) with blood pressure (B.P.) greater than or equal to 160/95 mmHg. This study was carried out in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design. After 6 weeks of treatment with labetalol (mean dose = 235 +/- 47.5 mg/day), the systolic pressure was lowered from 187 +/- 24 to 145 +/- 28 mmHg (p less than 0.001) and the diastolic pressure from 98 +/- 10 to 82 +/- 9 mmHg (p less than 0.001). Likewise, in the placebo group, both systolic and diastolic pressures were significantly reduced but the changes were significantly greater in the labetalol group, -33 +/- 26 versus -13 +/- 20 mmHg and -14 +/- 10 versus -8 +/- 14 mmHg respectively. Labetalol achieved B.P. control (160/95 mmHg) in 64% of the treated patients, compared to 40% in the placebo group. Two patients on labetalol discontinued their treatment due to side-effects (one bradycardia and one cutaneous reaction) compared with one patient on placebo (cardiac failure). Two other cases in the labetalol group had side-effects (one fatigue and one dizziness) which prevented increasing the treatment as necessary.

- Abstract
Background: Cisplatin is one of the most effective cytotoxic drugs used in the treatment of certain neoplasms, but is also one which most frequently induces nausea and vomiting. Combination of corticosteroids with ondansetron enables greater control of emesis than that obtained with ondansetron alone, but some patients still experience symptoms. The objective of this randomised, double-blind, multicentre, parallel group study was to examine the benefit of the addition of metopimazine (MPZ), a dopamine receptor antagonist, to the combination of ondansetron + methylprednisolone (O + M) in the prevention of cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting in patients uncontrolled [i.e., at least one emetic episode (vomiting and/or retching) or moderate or severe nausea] during their previous course of cisplatin based chemotherapy, despite antiemetic treatment with a combination of a 5-hydroxytryptamine3 receptor antagonist (5HT3) with a corticosteroid. The impact of the treatment on the patients' quality of life was also evaluated using two specific questionnaires the FLIC (Functional Living Index for Cancer), and the FLIE (Functional Living Index for Emesis)., Patients and Methods: The intent-to-treat population consisted of 338 patients; 168 patients received the triple combination of ondansetron, methylprednisolone and metopimazine (O + M + MPZ), and 170 patients received ondansetron plus methylprednisolone (O + M). Tumour type was comparable in the two treatment groups, the most prevalent being lung cancer. Patients in group O + M + MPZ received ondansetron as an 8 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on day 1 followed by 8 mg tablets b.i.d. from D2 to D3, methylprednisolone as a 120 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on D1 and followed by 16 mg tablets b.i.d. from D2 to D3, and metopimazine as a 40 mg intravenous injection prior to chemotherapy on D1 and followed by 15 mg capsules b.i.d. on D2 to D3. Patients in group O + M received treatment with ondansetron and methylprednisolone as above., Results: Analysis of the primary efficacy criterion (absence of emetic episode throughout the course of chemotherapy) revealed a success rate of 53% in the group receiving O + M + MPZ and 38% in the group receiving O + M (P = 0.008). Analysis of the secondary efficacy criteria (nausea grade, number of emetic episodes and global patient satisfaction on D1 and from D2 to D3) showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups, in favour of the O + M + MPZ treatment. The scores obtained with the FLIC and FLIE questionnaires did not reveal any significant differences between the two groups. Treatment was well tolerated in both groups., Conclusion: The study showed that the addition of MPZ to the combination O + M was an effective and well tolerated antiemetic treatment, with a 15% increase in efficacy compared to the combination in patients not controlled during their previous course of chemotherapy. The addition of metopimazine to existing regimens containing 5HT3 receptor antagonist and steroid combination should be considered for patients who fail on their previous course.

- Abstract
Six hundred and twenty-eight courses of cisplatin containing chemotherapy were recorded in patients receiving up to three courses of cytotoxic drugs with ondansetron (OND) given as an antiemetic agent (32 mg as a single iv dose or as a continuous infusion). The sample size of patients decreases from one course to another due to phenomena which may or may not be related to the chemotherapy and the anti-emetic treatment or to the evolution of the cancer disease. For patients with incomplete response to ondansetron, withdrawals could be related to an insufficient antiemetic effect as is known with other antiemetic drugs. Conversely, it is not the case for patients who had a complete response. Therefore, to avoid any bias due to patient selection, the analysis is based on the probability of changes from complete to incomplete response or from complete to complete response between two subsequent courses (i and i + 1). The response to OND treatment for the course i + 1 depends not only on the efficacy during this course (i + 1) but also on the response during the prior course (i). A discrete time-dependent statistical model (Markov chain) was used to test the evolution of the probability of remaining in complete response. This probability was equal to 66% between the first and the second course, and to 88% between the second and the third one. The probability of remaining in complete response significantly increased during repeated courses (P = 0.001). These results show that in patients for whom OND treatment allows a complete antiemetic control during the first course of chemotherapy, the probability of remaining with no emetic episodes at all increases during the two subsequent courses.

- Abstract
The feasibility, the validity and reliability of the questionnaire "Qualité de Vie et Migraine" (QVM) were assessed during a study performed on 107 patients recruited either in neurological departments in hospitals (N = 58) or by G.P. (N = 49). The study was designed as a Test-Retest, the self-questionnaire being filled twice at an interval of one week. The filling-in time was an average 7 min in hospital and 11 min for G.P.'s patients. The missing values were quite rare, between 1% and 2%. The items were assessed "very interesting" or "interesting" by 94% of the patients, and "easy" or "fairly easy to understand" by 96%. The principal component analysis performed on the whole sample allowed the extraction of 4 meaningful factors which were in agreement with the pre-defined structure of the questionnaire QVM. The 1st axis was a factor of psychological repercussion, the 2nd axis was a factor of functional and somatic repercussion, the 3rd axis was a factor of social repercussion and the 4th one was a factor of disturbance generated by the treatment. The QVM questionnaire allowed the calculation of a global index of quality of life and indexes according to the multifactorial structure. The global index was significantly higher for the most severe patients recruited in hospital, which means that the repercussion of migraine on quality of life was greater than for G.P.'s patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

- Abstract
Serotonin (5-Hydroxytryptamine) seems to play a dominant role in triggering vomiting induced by cytotoxic agents through the stimulation of 5-HT3 receptors. They have been observed in the GI tract as well as in the brain (area postrema). Ondansetron is a specific antagonist of 5-HT3 serotonin receptors. Its anti-emetic activity is very powerful in the ferret. The availability of an injectable or oral form of this product allows the overall treatment of acute and delayed emesis and its administration is in accordance with different schedules: single IV injection or a continuous 24 hour infusion or repeated IV injection followed by oral treatment. The pharmacokinetics of the drug are as follows: absorption begins about 30 minutes after the administration per os, its biodisponibility is about 60%, its clearance: 20 ml/minute and its elimination half life about 3 hours. Different double blind studies, carried out in parallel groups or in cross over, demonstrated the superiority of ondansetron over metoclopramide in the control of nausea and vomiting, whether or not the chemotherapy contained cisplatin; a more recent study shows also that ondansetron was superior to alizapride and methylprednisolone in combination. Side effects of ondansetron do not include extrapyramidal symptoms but only headaches and constipation. The use of ondansetron improves the well-being of patients receiving chemotherapy and increases protocol compliance.

The overall adverse events rate was 9% with labetalol and 29% with nifedipine (p less than 0.001). In this comparative study in elderly hypertensives, labetalol given in a dose titration schedule proved significantly superior to nifedipine, given at recommended maximal dosage, in terms of both BP control and side effects profile.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of labetalol, an alpha and beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent in 32 patients aged from 72 to 97 years (mean = 85 years) with blood pressure (B.P.) greater than or equal to 160/95 mmHg. This study was carried out in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design. After 6 weeks of treatment with labetalol (mean dose = 235 +/- 47.5 mg/day), the systolic pressure was lowered from 187 +/- 24 to 145 +/- 28 mmHg (p less than 0.001) and the diastolic pressure from 98 +/- 10 to 82 +/- 9 mmHg (p less than 0.001). Likewise, in the placebo group, both systolic and diastolic pressures were significantly reduced but the changes were significantly greater in the labetalol group, -33 +/- 26 versus -13 +/- 20 mmHg and -14 +/- 10 versus -8 +/- 14 mmHg respectively. Labetalol achieved B.P. control (160/95 mmHg) in 64% of the treated patients, compared to 40% in the placebo group. Two patients on labetalol discontinued their treatment due to side-effects (one bradycardia and one cutaneous reaction) compared with one patient on placebo (cardiac failure). Two other cases in the labetalol group had side-effects (one fatigue and one dizziness) which prevented increasing the treatment as necessary.

The purpose of this multicenter randomised, double-blind and cross-over study was to compare the antihypertensive effects of labetalol (L) and captopril (C) in 42 moderate hypertensive patients (mean age: 52 years). The drugs were given during two 4-weeks periods at the end of which the systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressures (DBP) were measured at rest in supine and standing positions. The assessment of the quality of life was realized with 4 scales completed by the practitioner [anxiety, depression, well-being, visual analog scale (VAS)] and 4 scales of auto-assessment completed by the patient [2 VAS, well-being, sub-scale of pleasure]. At the end of the first treatment's period (D28), both drugs had decreased significantly supine SBP and DBP (p less than 0.001), standing DBP (L = p less than 0.01; C = p less than 0.05), while only L lowered supine SBP (p less than 0.01). The cross-over analysis was unable to conclude, due to the number of patients and a significant interaction which reduced its power. Thus the effect of the first treatment's period seemed to influence the efficacy of the second one. The percentages of patients with a controlled BP were respectively: after 4 weeks of treatment, L = 61 p. 100 vs C = 42 p. 100 and at the end of study (D56), L = 67 p. 100 vs C = 64 p. 100.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
