Examination of the "susceptibility gap" in the treatment of canine heartworm infection
Parasit Vectors 2017 Nov 9;10(Suppl 2):513.PMID:29143689DOI:10.1186/s13071-017-2433-9.
Background: The "susceptibility gap" in a dog diagnosed with adult heartworms has been defined as the period of time in which some Dirofilaria immitis stages are not susceptible to treatment with either macrocyclic lactones or Melarsomine dihydrochloride. This was previously defined within the American Heartworm Society guidelines as a period of about 3 months "as per product labels." It can be postulated, however, that a susceptibility gap does not exist with the combination of continued macrocyclic lactone therapy coupled with a three-dose Melarsomine dihydrochloride protocol where the first intramuscular treatment is near the time of first diagnosis. Discussion: Melarsomine dihydrochloride was originally also investigated as a "preventive" as well as a treatment for adult heartworm infection where it would be given to dogs by intramuscular injection every 4 months; therefore, there was early interest in its ability to kill younger worms. A single intramuscular injection of 2.5 mg Melarsomine dihydrochloride/kg has an efficacy of 82.1% against 4-month-old worms. When it was given to dogs with older heartworms, 7 and 12 months of age, a single injection was only 55.6% and 51.7% effective, respectively. Thiacetarsamide has been shown to be 99.7% effective against 2-month-old heartworms and other work has shown that Melarsomine dihydrochloride is 100% efficacious against these younger forms. With the development and US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of spinosad + milbemycin oxime (Trifexis®, Elanco), milbemycin oxime + praziquantel (Interceptor® Plus, Novartis, now Elanco), and milbemycin oxime + lufenuron + praziquantel (Sentinel® Spectrum®, Novartis, now Virbac), it was shown that repeated treatments of dogs with milbemycin oxime also has efficacy against 3-month-old heartworms. Thus, no improvement in efficacy is expected with a delay in initiating therapy with both Melarsomine dihydrochloride and macrocyclic lactones, even with the presence of younger heartworms. Starting treatment at diagnosis appears to be acceptable for maximal heartworm clearance based on published data. Delaying treatment has the disadvantage of allowing disease progression and continued heartworm growth. Conclusions: The collective data that has been reviewed indicates that continued macrocyclic lactone administration with two additional injections of Melarsomine dihydrochloride a month later will protect dogs against all heartworm stages, including those heartworms 2 months of age or younger at diagnosis, when both treatments are started upon diagnosis.
Use of Melarsomine dihydrochloride (RM 340) for adulticidal treatment of dogs with naturally acquired infections of Dirofilaria immitis and for clinical prophylaxis during reexposure for 1 year
Vet Parasitol 1994 Nov;55(3):221-33.PMID:7879380DOI:10.1016/0304-4017(93)00643-D.
Heartworm-infected dogs were treated therapeutically with a new heartworm adulticide (Melarsomine dihydrochloride, RM 340) and then put on a Strategic Program with treatment every 4 months for clinical prophylaxis to take advantage of the drug's potent activity against 4-month-old immature as well as adult Dirofilaria immitis. Ten random-source dogs with naturally acquired heartworm infections (microfilariae- and antigen-positive) were given melarsomine (2.2 mg kg-1 twice 3 h apart) by i.m. injection in the lumbar muscles to clear their existing infections. They were then placed outdoors (August 1988) in a high-risk area in Georgia (USA) for heartworm transmission and given melarsomine at the same posology every 4 months (Strategic Program) for 12 months as a clinical prophylactic measure. Five nontreated heartworm-naive beagles placed at this site during the same period served as 'controls' to monitor heartworm transmission. After exposure for 12 months, the ten treated and five 'control' dogs were taken indoors and held for 5 months. Microfilaremia and antigenemia levels were monitored in both groups by testing at 4-5 month intervals throughout the study and the intensity of infection was determined at necropsy. Microfilaremia levels in treated dogs dropped dramatically following the initial therapeutic treatment and remained either negative or low. Only two of the five 'control' dogs became microfilaremic, and this occurred near the end of the study. Nine of the ten treated dogs were antigen-negative 4 months after the initial therapeutic treatment, and all of them were antigen-negative at all bleedings thereafter. Four of the five 'control' dogs were antigen-positive at necropsy, and only one of these was positive 4 months earlier. Based on these antigen data, the initial treatment cleared 90% of the dogs of worms, and no worms were detected in any of the treated dogs thereafter. However, it is possible that undetectable immature heartworms were present. Although all of the treated dogs were antigen-negative at necropsy, three of them had a total of eight heartworms, seven of which were clearly immature, as determined by worm length measurements, and the remaining worm was a young adult female that was probably too young to be detected. All of the five 'control' dogs had heartworms (average 7.4; range 1-16), and about half of these worms were clearly immatures. Therapeutic treatment followed by strategic treatment with melarsomine every 4 months during reexposure was at least 89.2% effective overall.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
Clinical prophylactic activity of Melarsomine dihydrochloride (RM 340) against Dirofilaria immitis in heartworm-naive beagles exposed to natural infection in three southeastern states
Vet Parasitol 1994 Nov;55(3):205-19.PMID:7879379DOI:10.1016/0304-4017(93)00642-C.
Melarsomine dihydrochloride (RM 340), a drug being developed as an adulticide for treatment of heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis) infection in dogs, was safe and highly effective as a clinical prophylactic agent against naturally acquired infections using Strategic and Tactical Treatment Programs. The Strategic Program involved treatment every 4 months (three series of treatments per year), disregarding the mosquito season (MS), to clear the existing infection at each treatment. The Tactical Program consisted of two series of treatments per year, 4 months apart, with the first one given about the middle of the MS (August) and the second one given after the end of the MS (December). Melarsomine was administered as two i.m. injections (lumbar muscles) of 2.2 mg kg-1 given 3 h apart. A total of 90 heartworm-naive beagles and a number of microfilaremic 'seed' dogs were used. Three similar experiments (30 beagles per experiment) were conducted at selected areas (Georgia, Florida, Louisiana) known to be enzootic for heartworm. At each site, 30 beagles were allocated to six groups of five dogs each, and four of these groups were placed outdoors in April of 1988. Two groups (control and treated) were exposed for 12 months, and the treated group was given melarsomine at 4, 8, and 12 months after exposure was started (Strategic Program). Another group was exposed for 8 months and treated with melarsomine at 4 and 8 months (Tactical Program). One group of tracer (sentinel) beagles was exposed from April to August 1988, one group from August to December 1988, and another from December 1988 to April 1989. April-August and August-December tracers served as controls for the tactically treated dogs. After exposure, all dogs were held indoors for 5 months before necropsy. Blood was collected at 4-5 month intervals and examined for microfilariae (MF) and adult heartworm antigen (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA). Treatment by the Strategic Program was 99% effective, with only one of the total of 15 treated dogs harboring any worms (a single female) at necropsy. Thirteen of the 14 control dogs (93%) exposed for 12 months became infected, with average worm recoveries of 6.8, 5.4, and 25.2 (range 1-45) for the Georgia, Florida, and Louisiana sites, respectively. All of the 13 heartworm-infected control dogs were antigen-positive, and 12 of these were also MF-positive, while none of the strategically treated dogs was either antigen- or MF-positive at necropsy. Tactical treatment of the total of 14 dogs twice per year was 100% effective.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
Neurologic complications after Melarsomine dihydrochloride treatment for Dirofilaria immitis in three dogs
J Am Vet Med Assoc 2003 Nov 15;223(10):1456-61, 1434.PMID:14627097DOI:10.2460/javma.2003.223.1456.
Melarsomine dihydrochloride is highly effective against both sexes of adult and L5 Dirofilaria immitis. Common adverse reactions include injection site irritation and reluctance to move. Neurologic complications associated with i.m. injection of Melarsomine dihydrochloride for treatment of heartworm disease in 3 dogs are described. Different degrees of neurologic complications have been identified; the pathophysiologic features are unknown. It is speculated that the compound migrates out of the injection site via fascial planes and causes an ascending inflammation along nerve roots. The resulting extradural cord compression secondary to extensive inflammation and necrosis of epidural fat could induce a variety of neurologic deficits. Alternatively, inappropriate injection technique may result in direct contact of melarsomine with neural tissue. A heightened awareness of proper injection technique might prevent the development of most neurologic complications.
Evaluation of lung pathology in Dirofilaria immitis-experimentally infected dogs treated with doxycycline or a combination of doxycycline and ivermectin before administration of Melarsomine dihydrochloride
Vet Parasitol 2011 Mar 22;176(4):357-60.PMID:21292403DOI:10.1016/j.vetpar.2011.01.021.
Adulticide therapy in heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis)-infected dogs can lead to thromboembolism, which can seriously compromise post-treatment health status. Lung pathology following adulticide therapy was evaluated in three groups of experimentally infected dogs. Group 1 was treated with doxycycline at 20 mg/kg per os once daily for 30 days post infection followed by an intramuscular injection of Melarsomine dihydrochloride (2.5 mg/kg) at Week 12, followed 1 month later by two injections 24 h apart. Group 2 was treated as described for Group 1, with the addition of ivermectin at 6 mcg/kg given monthly per os for 24 weeks post-infection. Group 3 received melarsomine alone, as described above. All dogs were necropsied at Week 24 and lung pathology was evaluated. Lesion criteria included perivascular inflammation and endothelial proliferation. Lesions were scored by two independent pathologists who were blinded as to treatment. Results indicate that doxycycline treatment alone or combined with ivermectin had lower lesion scores than lungs from dogs who had received melarsomine alone. Dogs that received the combined doxycycline/ivermectin protocol and treated with adulticide showed less severe arterial lesions and the virtual absence of thrombi.
