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, male baldness, muscle atrophy and weakness, sarcopenia, male hypogonadism, erectile dysfunction, female sexual dysfunction and osteoporosis. They can be formulated together with pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier or otherwise made into any pharmaceutical dosage form. Combinations with other active pharmaceutical agents are also disclosed.
摘要:
Intravaginal DHEA is used for the treatment of at least one condition selected from the group consisting of female hypoactive sexual desire disorder, female sexual arousal disorder, female orgasm disorder and female sexual interest arousal disorder in a woman who either (1) is not suffering from symptoms of vulvo-vaginal atrophy and/or (2) is not suffering from moderate to severe dyspareunia.
摘要:
Novel methods for the medical treatment and/or prevention of obesity, abdominal fat, and insulin resistance in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involves the administration of selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). A combination of a SERM with an amount of estrogen or a sex steroid precursor selected from the group consisting of dehydroepiandrosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, androst-5-ene-3b,17b-diol and compounds converted in vivo to one of the foregoing precursors or estrogen is also disclosed.
摘要:
Novel methods for treating or reducing the likelihood of acquiring vaginal dysfunctions, more particularly vaginal dryness and dyspareunia, leading to sexual dysfunction and low sexual desire and performance , in susceptible warm-blooded animals including humans involving administration of a sex steroid precursor. Further administration of estrogen or selective estrogen receptor modulator, particularly those selected from the group consisting of Raloxifene, Arzoxifene, Tamoxifen, Droloxifene, Toremifene, Iodoxifene, GW 5638, TSE-424, ERA-923, and lasofoxifene, and more particularly compounds having the general structure: is specifically disclosed for the medical treatment and/or inhibition of development of some of these above-mentioned diseases. Pharmaceutical compositions for delivery of active ingredient(s) and kit(s) useful to the invention are also disclosed.
摘要:
Inhibitors of sex steroid activity, for example those having general structure (A) may be used as part of a pharmaceutical composition to provide antiestrogenic effects and/or to suppress estrogen synthesis. Such pharmaceutical compositions are useful for the treatment of breast cancer or other diseases whose progress is aided by activation of sex steroid receptors.
摘要:
Pharmaceutical compositions for the topical treatment of androgen-related conditions, e.g., acne in humans containing an amount of the compound represented by formula (II) effective for the topical treatment of the androgen-related conditions, e.g., acne dissolved in an alcohol-water solvent system, such as ethanol-water [97.6:2.4(w/w)] and having an apparent pH in the range of about 3.5 to 4.5, and containing a gelling agent are disclosed.
摘要:
A method of treatment of androgen-related diseases such as prostate cancer in susceptible male animals, including humans, comprises administering novel antiandrogens and/or novel sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors as part of a combination therapy. Sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors, especially those capable of inhibiting conversion of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) or 4-androstenedione ( DELTA 4-dione) to natural sex steroida (and testosterone into dihydrotestosterone) in peripheral tissues, are used in combination with antiandrogens usually after blockade of testicular hormonal secretions. Antiestrogens can also be part of the combination therapy. Pharmaceutical compositions and two, three, four and five component kits are useful for such combination treatment.
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.
