Popis: ICI 141,292 is a new beta 1-adrenoceptor blocking drug. The beta 1-adrenoceptor antagonistic effect of ICI 141,292 was examined in a double-blind, randomised crossover study in eight healthy young volunteers and compared with atenolol. Three doses of ICI 141,292 (1, 2 and 4 mg) and atenolol 5 mg were administered intravenously. The attenuation in exercise induced tachycardia varied between 16.0 and 21.2% (P less than 0.01). A significant reduction in blood pressure could be demonstrated following all three doses of ICI 141,292 and atenolol during exercise. At rest in the sitting position HR decreased approximately 8% following all three doses of ICI 141,292 and 14.9% after atenolol 5 mg. No changes in blood pressure were observed under resting conditions after any of the drugs. In six patients with ischaemic heart disease the intrinsic sympathomimetic activity following intravenous administration of four sequential doses (0.5, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg) of ICI 141,292 was examined. HR decreased 7% (P less than 0.05) following ICI 141,292 1 mg with no further decrease following the succeeding doses. Cardiac output decreased 5.2% (P less than 0.05) following a cumulative dose of 4 mg. No significant changes were observed in mean arterial blood pressure, stroke volume or total peripheral resistance whereas an increase in supine resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure of 3.4 mm Hg (P less than 0.05) could be demonstrated. ICI 141,292 seems to be a potent (at least five times as potent as atenolol) beta 1-adrenoceptor blocking agent possessing moderate intrinsic sympathomimetic activity.
