Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause Understanding

Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause: Overview

Vasomotor symptoms (VMS) or hot flashes and night sweats, are hallmarks of the menopausal transition (MT) and can significantly affect quality of life. Up to 80% of women experience VMS during menopause 5,6 and a majority of women rate them as moderate-to-severe. The cause of hot flashes is not fully understood and is likely multifactorial. It is generally thought that hot flashes result from a narrowing of the thermoneutral zone in perimenopausal women. Reproductive hormones play an important role in this narrowing, given that the onset of VMS corresponds to changes in reproductive hormones at the menopausal transition and the therapeutic effect of exogenous estrogen.

The cause of hot flushes has yet to be determined because of the limited research focus in this therapeutic area. Hot flushes are believed to result from the brain's response to diminished hormones and hormonal fluctuations that occur during the menopausal transition. Ovarian hormones have been shown to influence thermoregulatory mechanisms that regulate temperature homeostasis in the hypothalamus. The neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine play a role in modulating core body temperature, neurochemical messaging, and peripheral vasculature.

Smoking is the primary health behavior that has been associated with VMS. SWAN has shown that both active smoking and passive smoke exposure are related to greater likelihood of VMS. Physical activity, diet, and alcohol consumption are other health behaviors people have studied, but these results are weak and inconsistent. In contrast to the inconsistent role of lifestyle factors, studies have shown that psychosocial factors such as anxiety and depression are more consistently associated with VMS.

Hot flashes are a common VMS of menopause. Other symptoms include sweating, including night sweats, sleep disturbances, anxiety, heart palpitations. These symptoms tend to affect people for about a year. But 17% of women may continue to experience them for several years.

Multiple forms of treatment have been used to relieve hot flashes, including lifestyle modifications, non-prescription drugs, and prescription drugs. Prescription drugs may be grouped into hormonal and non-hormonal agents. Progestogens alone may be considered as an alternative for treating hot flashes if the benefit-risk profile is acceptable to the woman. Hormone therapy aims to balance hormone levels in the body. It can help relieve hot flashes and other symptoms. Antidepressants, such as paroxetine (Paxil), may help. Healthcare professionals will usually prescribe a lower dosage for menopause symptoms.

Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause Emerging Drugs

Elinzanetant: Bayer Elinzanetant is a first-in-class, non-hormonal, orally administered, dual neurokinin-1,3 receptor antagonist currently in clinical development for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms during menopause. Elinzanetant addresses vasomotor symptoms by modulating a group of oestrogen sensitive neurons in the hypothalamus in the brain (the KNDy neurons), that due to the absence of oestrogen, become hyperactive in menopausal women and consequently disrupt body heat control mechanisms resulting in the debilitating vasomotor symptoms of hot flashes. The drug is currently being investigated in Phase III clinical trial OASIS, which aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of elinzanetant for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms duringmenopause.

FP-101: Fervent Pharmaceuticals FP-101 is an oral formulation of an existing compound that is FDA approved for another indication. It is being developed by Fervent Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and insomnia. The compound is non-hormonal, non-herbal, non-antidepressant, and has a long history of safe use. The Drug is currently in Phase II stage of its clinical development for the treatment of Vasomotor Symptoms of Menopause.
