摘要:
The invention provides a method of treating cancer pain, e.g. bone cancer pain, in a subject in need of such treatment which comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of a COX-2 inhibitor; advantageously a compound of formula (I); wherein R, R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are as defined; a pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; or a pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug ester thereof.
摘要:
Disclosed are compounds of formula (I) wherein W is CH or N; R is (mono- or di cabocyclic or heterocyclic aryl)-lower alkyl; R1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; R2 and R3 are hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy-lower alkyl or aryl-lower alkyl; or R2 and R3 joined together represent lower alkylene optionally interrupted by O, NH, N-lower alkyl or S so as to form a ring with the amide nitrogen; X is O, S, SO, S2 or a direct bond; X1 is O, S, SO, SO2 or a direct bond; Y is a direct bond, lower alkylene or lower alkylidene; and Z is carboxyl, 5-tetrazolyl,, hydroxymethyl or carboxyl derivatized in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable ester, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; which arm useful as LTB-4 antagonists.
