摘要:
Novel methods for reduction or elimination of the incidence of hot flushes, vasomotor symptoms, and night sweats while decreasing the risk of acquiring breast, uterine or endometrial cancer and furthermore having beneficial effect by inhibiting the development of osteoporosis, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, insulin resistance, diabetes type 2, loss of muscle mass, adiposity, Alzheimer's disease, loss of cognition, loss of memory, or vaginal dryness in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involving administration of an amount of a sex steroid precursor, particularly dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and an antiestrogen or a selective estrogen receptor modulator, particularly benzopyran compounds. Pharmaceutical compositions for delivery of active ingredient(s) and kit(s) useful to the invention are also disclosed.
摘要:
Novel methods for prevention, reduction or elimination of the incidence of male androgen deficiency symptoms or diseases including male hypogonadism-associated symptoms and diseases associated with low serum testosterone and/or low DHEA or low total androgens in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involving administration of an amount of a sex steroid precursor, particularly dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) (particularly acolbifene), an antiestrogen or a prodrug of the two. The symptoms or diseases are loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, tiredness, loss of energy, depression, bone loss, muscle loss, muscle weakness, fat accumulation, memory loss, cognition loss, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, loss of body hair, fertility problems, insomnia, gynecomastia, anemia, hot flushes, sweats, decreased sense of well-being, obesity, osteoporosis, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Pharmaceutical compositions for delivery of active ingredient(s) and kit(s) useful to the invention are also disclosed.
摘要:
A sex steroid precursor selected from the group consisting of dehydroepiandrosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, androst-5-ene-3β,17β-diol, and 4-androsten-3,17-dione for use in a method of treating and/or reducing the likelihood of acquiring symptoms or diseases due to the menopause, or vaginal diseases or problems, in postmenopausal women is provided, said method comprising administering the sex steroid precursor to a patient in need of said treatment at a therapeutic amount which increases the level of circulating androgen metabolites, as part of a combination therapy with a therapeutically effective amount of a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator in order to decrease the risk of breast and uterine cancer normally present in postmenopausal women and to prevent bone loss, fat accumulation and diabetes type 2. Pharmaceutical compositions and kits for delivery of active ingredients useful to the invention are disclosed.
摘要:
Novel methods for the medical treatment and/or inhibition of the development of breast cancer, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlipidemia or atherosclerosis in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involving administration of selective estrogen receptor modulator and an amount of a sex steroid precursor selected from the group consisting of dehydroepiandrosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, androst-5-ene-3ß,17ß-diol, and compounds converted in vivo to one of the foregoing precursors. Further administration of bisphosphonates in combination with selective estrogen receptor modulators and/or sex steroid precursors is disclosed. Pharmaceutical compositions for delivery of active ingredients and kits useful to the invention are disclosed.

摘要:
Compounds having the structure or their salts are used to treat or reduce the likelihood of acquiring androgen-dependent diseases, such as prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia, polycystic ovarian syndrome, acne, hirsutism, seborrhea, androgenic alopecia and male baldness. The compounds can be formulated together with pharmaceutically acceptable diluents or carriers or otherwise made into any pharmaceutical dosage form. Combinations with other active pharmaceutical agents are also disclosed.
摘要:
Novel methods of treating or reducing the likelihood of acquiring skin diseases due to age-related androgen deficiency, particularly skin atrophy, loss of collagen, loss of elastic fibers, loss of connective tissue, cellulite, and formation of wrinkles, in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involving administration of an androgen or/and a sex steroid precursor. Pharmaceutical compositions for delivery of active ingredient(s) useful to the invention are also disclosed.
