Abstract:
Invented is a method of treating cancer and pre-cancerous syndromes in a mammal, including a human, in need thereof which comprises the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a non-peptide TPO receptor agonist to such mammal.
Abstract:
The invention provides compounds of the formula (0) or salts or tautomers or N-oxides or solvates thereof, and combinations thereof with other anti-cancer agents, for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of disease states and conditions such as cancers mediated by cyclin-dependent kinase and glycogen synthase kinase-3.
Abstract:
Invented is a method of treating thrombocytopenia in a human in need thereof which comprises the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a 3′-{N′-[1-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-5-oxo-1,5-dihydropyrazol-4-ylidene]hydrazino}-2′-hydroxybiphenyl-3-carboxylic acid to such human.
Abstract:
An improved thrombopoietin mimetic, the bis-(monoethanolamine) salt of 3′-[(2Z)-[1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-4H-pyrazol-4-ylidene]hydrazino]-2′-hydroxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid.
Abstract:
Described is a novel combination therapy for diabetes mellitus type I and/or for obesity and its concomitant and/or secondary diseases or conditions, in particular the metabolic syndrome and/or syndrome X, and/or diabetes mellitus type II, by administering a combination of at least one KATP channel opener as a first active agent and at least one CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist as a second active agent. The invention is further directed to such novel combination therapy wherein a dually acting compound with combined KATP channel opening and CB1 antagonistic properties is used. The invention also relates to novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising KATP channel openers and CB1 antagonists and the use of said pharmaceutical compositions in the treatment, delayed progression, delayed onset of and/or inhibition of diabetes mellitus type 1, and the prophylaxis and treatment, of obesity as well as the prophylaxis, treatment, delayed onset and/or inhbition of its concomitant and/or secondary diseases or conditions, in particular the metabolic syndrome and/or syndrome X, and/or diabetes mellitus type II, in mammals and humans. The invention is further directed to such novel pharmaceutical compositions comprising a dually acting compound with combined KATP channel opening and CB1 antagonistic properties.
Abstract:
Invented is a method of treating cancer or a pre-cancerous syndrome in a mammal, including a human, in need thereof which comprises the administration of an effective amount of a non-peptide thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonist or TPO cell cycle activator and a chemotherapeutic agent to such mammal, suitably a human.
Abstract:
An improved thrombopoietin mimetic, the bis-(monoethanolamine) salt of 3′-[(2Z)-[1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-4H-pyrazol-4-ylidene]hydrazino]-2′-hydroxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-carboxylic acid.
Abstract:
A novel pharmaceutical composition is provided by which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are added directly to phospholipid-containing oil such as lecithin oils or to a bio-compatible oil to which an phospholipid has been added to make a NSAID-containing formulation that possess low gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity and enhanced therapeutic activity to treat or prevent inflammation, pain, fever, platelet aggregation, tissue ulcerations and/or other tissue disorders. The composition of the invention are in the form of a non-aqueous solution, paste, suspension, dispersion, colloidal suspension or in the form of an aqueous emulsion or microemulstion for internal, oral, direct or topical administration.
Abstract:
The invention provides compounds of the formula (0) or salts or tautomers or N-oxides or solvates thereof for use in the prophylaxis or treatment of disease states and conditions such as cancers mediated by cyclin-dependent kinase and glycogen synthase kinase-3. In formula (0): X is a group R1-A-NR4— or a 5- or 6-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring; A is a bond, SO2, C═O, NRg(C═O) or O(C═O) wherein Rg is hydrogen or C1-4 hydrocarbyl optionally substituted by hydroxy or C1-4 alkoxy; Y is a bond or an alkylene chain of 1, 2 or 3 carbon atoms in length; R1 is hydrogen; a carbocyclic or heterocyclic group having from 3 to 12 ring members; or a C1-8 hydrocarbyl group optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from halogen (e.g. fluorine), hydroxy, C1-4 hydrocarbyloxy, amino, mono- or di-C1-4 hydrocarbylamino, and carbocyclic or heterocyclic groups having from 3 to 12 ring members, and wherein 1 or 2 of the carbon atoms of the hydrocarbyl group may optionally be replaced by an atom or group selected from O, S, NH, SO, SO2; R2 is hydrogen; halogen; C1-4 alkoxy (e.g. methoxy); or a C1-4 hydrocarbyl group optionally substituted by halogen (e.g. fluorine), hydroxyl or C1-4 alkoxy (e.g. methoxy); R3 is selected from hydrogen and carbocyclic and heterocyclic groups having from 3 to 12 ring members; and R4 is hydrogen or a C1-4 hydrocarbyl group optionally substituted by halogen (e.g. fluorine), hydroxyl or C1-4 alkoxy (e.g. methoxy).
