Abstract:
Novel dicationic 2,5-diaryl selenophene compounds are described. Also described are novel aza analogues of dicationic 2,5-diaryl thiophenes. The presently disclosed dicationic compounds exhibit in vitro activity versus Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, Plasmodium falciparum, and/or Leishmania donovani comparable to that of pentamidine and furamidine. Some of the novel dicationic compounds display good activity in vivo in a murine model of a Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense infection.
Abstract:
Novel fused ring dicationic anti-protozoan compounds. Representative protozoan species include but are not limited to Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (T.b.r.) and Plasmodium falciparum. Prodrugs of these compounds can be used as an oral treatment for malaria and human African trypanosomiasis.

Abstract:
In one aspect, the invention relates to a method of treating infectious bursal disease (IBD) in an avian subject in need of such treatment. The method comprises administering to the subject a compound of the formulas (I) through (IV) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount sufficient to treat IBD. In another aspect, the invention relates to a method of producing active immunity against infectious bursal virus disease (IBD) in an avian subject. The method comprises administering to a subject an immunogenic-amount of an IBDV vaccine and a compound selected from the compounds of formulas (I) through (IV) described herein. The compound represented by formulas (I) through (IV) is administered in an amount sufficient to induce an immune response in the avian subject.
Abstract:
A method of treating Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in a subject in need of such treatment is disclosed. The method comprises orally administering to the subject a bis-benzamidoxime, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, that is reduced in the subject to produce a benzamidine having anti-P. carinii activity. The method of the present invention may alternatively comprise intravenously administering to the subject an active compound as disclosed herein. Pharmaceutical formulations and active compounds useful in the practice of the present invention are also disclosed.
Abstract:
