Résumé
The new converting enzyme inhibitor cilazapril, or RO 31-2848, was evaluated in 14 healthy male volunteers. In a pilot study in two subjects, the inhibiting capacity of single oral doses of 5 and 10 mg on the pressure and heart rate response to exogenous angiotensin I was assessed. Both doses reduced the blood pressure response to angiotensin I to 10% of control within 45 min and for the 4 h tested. In the main study, 12 volunteers each received two single oral doses of cilazapril at a 2-week interval, and plasma converting enzyme and renin activity, blood angiotensin I, plasma immunoreactive angiotensin II and aldosterone were measured serially. Single doses of 1.25, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg of cilazapril were tested in groups of six subjects each. All doses inhibited plasma converting enzyme activity by 90% for at least 8 h and induced the expected pattern of changes of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Only slight dose-dependent variations in the effect were observed. Basic heart rate and blood pressure were not altered by any of the doses, which all were well tolerated. These data suggest that cilazapril is a very potent and long-acting new converting enzyme inhibitor.
