摘要:
The invention is a method for treating an inflammatory disease in a patient which comprises treating the patient with a composition comprising a thrombin inhibitor. Such diseases include but are not limited to nephritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, glomerulonephritis, and sacoidosis. In one class of the method, the thrombin inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of 3-(2-phenylethylamino)-6-methyl-1-(2-amino-6-methyl-5-methylenecarboxamidomethylpyridinyl)-2-pyrazinone, N′-[[1-(aminoiminomethyl)-4-piperidinyl]methyl]-N-(3,3-diphenylpropionyl)-L-proline amide, and 3-(2-phenethylamino)-6-methyl-1-(2-amino-6-methyl-5-methylenecarboxamidomethylpyridinyl)-2-pyridinone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The invention is also a method for treating an inflammatory disease in a patient which comprises treating the patient with a composition comprising a thrombin inhibitor and an NSAID, e.g., a COX-2 inhibitor. Such diseases include but are not limited to nephritis, systemic lupus, erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, glomerulonephritis, and sacoidosis. In one class of the method, the thrombin inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of 3-(2-phenylethylamino)-6-methyl-1-(2-amino-6-methyl-5-methylene-carboxamidomethylpyridinyl)-2-pyrazinone, N′-[[1-(aminoiminomethyl)-4-piperidinyl]methyl]-N-(3,3-diphenylpropionyl)-L-proline amide, and 3-(2-phenethylamino)-6-methyl-1-(2-amino-6-methyl-5-methylenecarboxamidomethylpyridinyl)-2-pyridinone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and the COX-2 inhibitor is 3-phenyl-4-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-2-(5H)-furanone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
