Abstract:
Novel polymorphic forms and salts of 1-(3′,4′-dichloro-2-fluorobiphenyl-4-yl)cyclopropanecarboxylic acid are useful for the prevention or treatment of Alzheimer's Disease.
Abstract:
Reconstituted pulmonary surfactants comprising a lipid carrier, a combination of polypeptide analog of the native surfactant protein SP-C with a particular polypeptide analog of the native surfactant protein SP-B may be used for the treatment or prophylaxis of RDS and other respiratory disorders.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for the preparation of sterile aqueous suspensions based on active ingredients in the form of micronised crystalline particles designed for administration by inhalation. In particular, a process for the preparation of sterile aqueous suspensions based on pharmaceutical active ingredients in the form of crystalline hydrates is disclosed.
Abstract:
8-hydroxy-5-[(1R)-1-hydroxy-2[[(1R)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-methylethyl]amino]ethyl]-2(1H)-quinolinone monohydrochloride of formula (I) may be conveniently prepared in a diastereomeric pure form from optically pure precursors that are readily available by simple resolution and asymmetric reduction.

Abstract:
The invention relates to 8-hydroxy-5-[(1R)-1-hydroxy-2-[[(1R)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-methylethyl]-amino]ethyl]-2(1H)-quinolinone hemi-fumarate salt. The invention also relates to processes for its preparation, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and to its use as a medicament.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of compounds of formula (I), wherein R is C2-C20 linear or branched alkyl, C3-C7 cycloalkyl, phenyl or benzyl, which can optionally be substituted by C1-C4 alkyl, halogen or C1-C4 alkoxy group, said process comprising: a) oxidation of eserine with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a base and subsequent hydrolysis to geneseroline, without isolating the intermediate geneserine; b) acylation of geneseroline with an isocyanate of formula R—N═C═O, wherein R is as defined above, in the presence of a basic catalyst; c) optional transformation into a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Compounds of formula (I) wherein R is a phenyl or benzyl, which can be optionally substituted by alkyl, halogen or alkoxy, are selective, potent brain anticholinesterase inhibitors.
Abstract:
Aerosol solution formulation for use in an aerosol inhaler which includes at least one active ingredient selected from 20-ketosteroids and quinolinone derivatives, a propellant containing a hydrofluoroalkane, a cosolvent, and a specific amount of a sequestering agent that stabilizes the formulation. By way of example, the stabilizing agent may be phosphoric acid or sulphuric acid.
