Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a lyophilized formulation having improved storage stability of hepatic growth factor compared to conventional lyophilized formulations.The present invention provides a lyophilized formulation comprising (1) a hepatic growth factor, (2) trehalose and (3) one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of arginine, histidine, lysine, meglumine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, proline, creatine, creatinine, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Abstract:
The invention features methods for treating cancer in a patient in need thereof by administering eribulin, in combination with one or more PARP inhibitors, and, optionally, a platinum-based antineoplastic drug, and kits therefor. The invention is based in part on the observation that combinations of eribulin mesylate, a PARP inhibitor (e.g., E7449), and, optionally, a platinum-based antineo-plastic drug (e.g., carboplatin), show improved (e.g., synergistic) antitumor effects. Therefore, the present invention features methods of preventing and treating cancer (e.g., homologous recombination (HR)-deficient cancer by the use of combinations of eribulin (e.g., eribulin mesylate) and one or more PARP inhibitors (e.g., E7449 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., the tartrate salt), optionally in combination with a platinum-based antineoplastic drug (e.g., carboplatin).
Abstract:
The present invention provides an anti-human Notch4 antibody or a Notch4 binding fragment thereof that may have neutralizing activity against human Notch4, as well as a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same as the active ingredient. The present inventors obtained a mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody that has high neutralizing activity and binding affinity towards human Notch4 and determined the complementarity determining region (CDR) sequence of the mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody. This enabled the production of a humanized antibody comprising the variable region of heavy and light chains as well as the CDR sequence of the mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody.

Abstract:
The present invention provides novel pladienolide pyridine compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and methods for using the compounds as therapeutic agents. These compounds may be useful in the treatment of cancer, particularly cancers in which agents that target the spliceosome and mutations therein are known to be useful.
Abstract:
A compound represented by the following formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof works as an mGluR2 antagonist, and is applicable as a therapeutic agent for neurological disorders related to glutamate dysfunction and diseases involving the mGluR2, such as Alzheimer's disease: wherein R is a hydrogen atom, a C1-6 alkyl group or the like, R1 is a C1-6 alkyl group, a C1-6 alkoxy group or the like, R2 is a halogen atom, a C1-6 alkyl group, a C1-6 alkoxy group or the like, R3 is a hydrogen atom, a C1-6 alkyl group or the like, and R4 is a C1-6 alkyl group or the like.

Abstract:
The invention provides methods for the synthesis of eribulin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., eribulin mesylate) through a macrocyclization strategy. The macrocyclization strategy of the present invention involves subjecting a non-macrocyclic intermediate to a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction (e.g., an olefination reaction (e.g., Homer-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination), Dieckmann reaction, catalytic Ring-Closing Olefin Metathesis, or Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction) to afford a macrocyclic intermediate. The invention also provides compounds useful as intermediates in the synthesis of eribulin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and methods for preparing the same.
