Hot Flashes Understanding

Hot Flashes: Overview

Hot flashes (HFs) are a rapid and exaggerated heat dissipation response, consisting of profuse sweating, peripheral vasodilation, and feelings of intense, internal heat. They are triggered by small elevations in core body temperature (Tc) acting within a greatly reduced thermoneutral zone, i.e., the Tc region between the upper (sweating) and lower (shivering) thresholds.

Hot flashes (HFs) are the most common symptom of the climacteric and are reported as feelings of intense warmth along with sweating, flushing, and chills. More than 80% of women experience hot flashes (HFs) during menopause. Defined by transient sensations of heat, sweating, flushing, anxiety, and chills lasting for 1–5 min, HFs can cause considerable distress especially when severe and frequent.

Among various factors reported to be associated with increase in incidence of HFs, a consistent association has been found only with obesity, African descent, lower socioeconomic status, presence of premenstrual syndrome, sedentary lifestyle, and smoking. HFs are characterized by excessive vasodilatation of peripheral vasculature to lose heat in setting of abnormal hypothalamic thermoneutral zone. While normal women initiate mechanisms of heat loss, once core body temperature increases by 0.4°C, women with HFs initiate vasodilatory response with a much smaller increase in core body temperature. It is peripheral vasodilatory response that results in profuse sweating and sensation of intense heat.

""Hot Flashes - Pipeline Insight, 2024"" report by DelveInsight outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Hot Flashes pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Hot Flashes treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Hot Flashes commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development. In the report, detailed description of the drug is given which includes mechanism of action of the drug, clinical studies, NDA approvals (if any), and product development activities comprising the technology, collaborations, licensing, mergers and acquisition, funding, designations and other product related details.

Report Highlights

• The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence in Hot Flashes R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve in Hot Flashes.
• In April, Fervent Pharmaceuticals has initiated a virtual at home Phase II clinical trial of its new product to treat the symptoms of moderate to severe hot flashes, night sweats and night-time awakenings due to hot flashes in women. Named M2S Hot Flash Study, the trial will analyse the peri- and post-menopausal therapy to treat hot flashes and night sweats.
• In January 2020, Veru Inc, developing novel medicines for the management of prostate cancer, today announced positive top line data interim results from its Phase 2 clinical study of Zuclomiphene citrate, a nonsteroidal oral estrogen receptor agonist, for the treatment of androgen deprivation hormone therapy (ADT) induced hot flashes, also known as vasomotor symptoms, in men who have advanced prostate cancer. Zuclomiphene appears to be well tolerated as there have been no reports of drug related serious adverse events nor drug related severe adverse events and no observations of adverse events of special interest, such as breast enlargement or pain, or venothromboembolic events (blood clots in legs or lungs, or stroke) in the safety database for the Phase 2 clinical study.

This segment of the Hot Flashes report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase 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.

Hot Flashes Emerging Drugs

• Fezolinetant: Astellas Pharma

Fezolinetant is an investigational selective neurokinin-3 (NK3) receptor antagonist. The safety and efficacy of fezolinetant are under investigation and have not been established. If approved by regulatory authorities, fezolinetant would be a first-in-class, nonhormonal treatment option to reduce the frequency and severity of VMS associated with menopause.

• 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.

• Fezolinetant: Ogeda

Fezolinetant (ESN364) is a proprietary, oral, small-molecule, discovered and developed by Ogeda for the purpose of the treatment of women’s health disorders. Fezolinetant’s mechanism of action to mimic the neuronal effects of estrogen to control body temperature supports the use of fezolinetant to directly and safely address the basis for hot flashes in menopausal women. In addition, fezolinetant addresses the cause of PCOS by selectively lowering luteinizing hormone (LH) without affecting follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in order to restore the correct LH-to-FSH ratio and permit the restoration of menstrual cycle regularity and fertility. Fezolinetant is also superior to the existing, marketed gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) ligands as it reduces levels of the ovarian hormones estrogen and progesterone in a non-castrating manner as required for the safe, effective treatment of uterine fibroids and endometriosis.

• Zuclomiphene citrate: Veru Inc

Zuclomiphene citrate is a novel, proprietary, oral, nonsteroidal, estrogen receptor agonist. Today the Company announced that a Phase 2 clinical trial of Zuclomiphene citrate demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in the frequency of moderate to severe hot flashes in men with advanced prostate cancer on ADT therapy.
