Abstract:
Deuterium-enriched 4-hydroxy-5-methoxy-N,1-dimethyl-2-oxo-N-[(4-trifluoromethyl) -phenyl]-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxamide, having a deuterium enrichment in the amide-N methyl group of at least 70%; or a salt thereof with a pharmaceutically acceptable organic or inorganic cation; and a method of preparing said compounds. The compounds are useful in therapy, e.g. for the treatment of a malignant hyperproliferative disorder or an autoimmune disease.
Abstract:
The present invention includes methods for identifying modifiers of chemosensory receptors and their ligands, e.g., by determining whether a test entity is suitable to interact with one or more interacting sites within the Venus flytrap domains of the chemosensory receptors, and modifiers capable of modulating chemosensory receptors and their ligands. The present invention also includes modifiers of chemosensory receptors and their ligands having Formula (I), its subgenus, and specific compounds. Furthermore, the present invention includes ingestible compositions comprising the modifiers of chemosensory receptors and their ligands and methods of using the modifiers of chemosensory receptors and their ligands to enhance the sweet taste of an ingestible composition or treat a condition associated with a chemosensory receptor. In addition, the present invention include processes for preparing the modifiers of chemosensory receptors and their ligands.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to modulators of ATP-Binding Cassette (“ABC”) transporters or fragments thereof, including Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator, compositions thereof, and methods therewith. The present invention also relates to methods of treating ABC transporter mediated diseases using such modulators.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a compound having a cholinergic muscarinic M1 receptor positive allosteric modulator activity, and useful as a prophylactic or therapeutic drug for Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, pain, a sleep disorder and the like. The present invention relates to a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein R1 is an optionally substituted amino group or an optionally substituted cyclic amino group, R2 and R3 are each independently a hydrogen atom or a substituent, X is —CH═ or —N═, and ring A is an optionally substituted 5- to 10-membered ring, or a salt thereof.
Abstract:
The invention relates to MIF inhibitors; compositions comprising an effective amount of a MIF inhibitor; and methods for treating or preventing diseases associated with MIF.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing a solid dispersion of N-[2,4-Bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-5-hydroxyphenyl]-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxamide including formulations of the solid dispersions into powders, granules and mini-tablets, methods for manufacturing and processing the powders, granules and mini-tablets, and methods for treating cystic fibrosis employing the pharmaceutical composition.
Abstract:
This invention relates to novel cancer treatment compositions and associated therapeutic methods. More particularly, this invention relates in part to small chemical bifunctional inhibitors of DNA replication and repair proteins Metnase and/or Intnase (also termed Gypsy Integrase, Gypsy Integrease-1, Gypsy Retransposon Integrase 1, or GIN-I) that simultaneously damage DNA, and to a therapeutic method that utilizes the inhibitors to increase the effectiveness of cancer treatment protocols, including radiation therapy. In preferred embodiments, compounds, compositions and methods of treatment of the invention are used to treat a patient suffering from leukemia (e.g. acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and related cancers. In certain aspects of such treatments, compounds, compositions and methods of treatment of the invention are administered as a monotherapy (in some cases, to patients who have exhibited resistance to Topo IIalpha inhibitors such as VP-16), or are co-administered with a Topo IIalpha inhibitor or other anti-cancer agents as otherwise described herein or in combination with radiation therapy.
