Abstract:
Methods and compositions are disclosed utilizing optically pure R-(-)-casodex for the treatment of androgen-dependent prostate cancer, while substantially reducing the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of casodex. R-(-)-casodex is an antiandrogen and is therefore useful in the treatment of other conditions supported by androgen or caused by elevated androgen levels. Such conditions include benign prostatic hypertrophy or hyperplasia, acne and hirsutism.

Abstract:
Compounds, compositions and methods of treatment are described to control brain damage associated with anoxia or ischemia which typically follows stroke, cardiac arrest or perinatal asphyxia. The treatment includes administration of an N-(1-thienylcycloalkyl)alkenylamine compound as an antagonist to inhibit excitotoxic actions at major neuronal excitatory amino acid receptor sites. Compounds of most interest are those of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is one or more groups selected from hydrido, alkyl of one to about five carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of three to about five carbon atoms, alkenyl of two to about five carbon atoms, hydroxyl and alkoxy; wherein each of R.sup.2 is one or more groups selected from hydrido, alkyl of one to about five carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of three to about five carbon atoms, alkenyl of two to about five carbon atoms, hydroxyl, oxo and alkoxy; wherein R.sup.5 is one or more groups selected from hydrido, alkyl of one to about five carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of three to about five carbon atoms, alkenyl of two to about five carbon atoms, hydroxyl and alkoxy; and wherein the broken line within the N-containing ring represents a double bond between any two adjacent carbon atoms
Abstract:
Methods are disclosed utilizing optically pure R(-) etodolac for the treatment of pain, including but not limited to pain associated with toothaches, headaches, sprains, joint pain and surgical pain, for example dental pain and ophthalmic pain, while substantially reducing adverse effects which are associated with the administration of the racemic mixture of etodolac. The optically pure R(-) etodolac is also useful in treating pyrexia while substantially reducing the adverse effects associated with the administration of the racemic mixture of etodolac.
