Bisoprolol Fumarate: The mutagenic potential of bisoprolol fumarate was evaluated in the microbial mutagenicity (Ames) test, the point mutation and chromosome aberration assays in Chinese hamster V79 cells, the unscheduled DNA synthesis test, the micronucleus test in mice, and the cytogenetics assay in rats.
Bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide doses used in the rat study are, as multiples of the MRHD in the combination, 129 and 514 times greater, respectively, on a body-weight basis, and 26 and 106 times greater, respectively, on the basis of body-surface area.
Bisoprolol Fumarate: In rats, bisoprolol fumarate was not teratogenic at doses up to 150 mg/kg/day, which are 375 and 77 times the MRHD on the basis of body-weight and body-surface-area, respectively.

The 330 patients with two or more transient ischaemic episodes in 48 hours were randomised to either bisoprolol (4 weeks at 10 mg once daily, followed by 4 weeks of 20 mg once daily) or slow release nifedipine (4 weeks at 20 mg twice daily followed by 4 weeks at 40 mg twice daily).
The total ischaemic burden dropped (from the same initial level during the placebo phase) by 73% after eight weeks on bisoprolol and by 46% after eight weeks on nifedipine, indicating that ischaemia, measured by ST segment depression and duration, was reduced.

 Abbildung: CIBIS II - Cardiac Insufficiency Bisoprolol Study - Objectives
Abbildung 2: Bisoprolol proved to be the compound with the highest ß1-selectivity in all in vitro and in vivo studies and in all animal species investigated.
The constants of inhibition of the ß-blockers bisoprolol, atenolol, betaxolol and propranolol were determined in ligand-binding studies using rat parotid gland (mainly occupied by ß1-receptors) and rat reticulocytes (mainly occupied by ß2-receptors) in human plasma: using a non-specific radiolabelled ligand, the ß1- and ß2-receptors of the rat parotid gland and reticulocytes were completely occupied.
The ratio of ci/ß1 to ci/ß2 was 1:75 for bisoprolol, 1:35 for atenolol and betaxolol, 1:20 for metoprolol, and 1.8:1 for propranolol.
