摘要:
Cyclosporine derivatives are disclosed which possess enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity over naturally occurring and other presently known cyclosporins and cyclosporine derivatives. The cyclosporine derivatives of the present invention are produced by chemical and isotopic substitution of the cyclosporine A (CsA) molecule by: (1) Chemical substitution and optionally deuterium substitution of amino acid 1; and (2) deuterium substitution at key sites of metabolism of the cyclosporine A molecule such as amino acids 1, 4, 9. Also disclosed are methods of producing the cyclosporine derivatives and method of producing immunosuppression with reduced toxicity with the disclosed cyclosporine derivatives.
摘要:
The invention is directed to isomeric mixtures of cyclosporine analogues that are structurally similar to cyclosporine A. The mixtures possess enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity over the individual isomers and over naturally occurring and other presently known cyclosporines and cyclosporine derivatives. Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward cis and trans-isomers of cyclosporin A analogs referred to as ISATX247, and derivatives thereof. Mixtures of ISATX247 isomers exhibit a combination of enhanced potency and reduced toxicity over the naturally occurring and presently known cyclosporins. ISATX247 isomers and alkylated, arylated, and deuterated derivatives are synthesized by stereoselective pathways where the particular conditions of a reaction determine the degree of siereoselectivity. The ratio of isomers in a mixture may range from about 10 to 90 percent by weight of the (E)-isomer to about 90 to 10 percent by weight of the (Z)-isomer, based on the total weight of the mixture.

摘要:
The present invention relates to formulations containing cyclosporin analogs that are structurally similar to cyclosporin A, in particular isomeric mixtures of cyclosporin analogs that are structurally similar to cyclosporin A. The formulations form stable microemulsion preconcentrates and may provide superior drug bioavailability and/or may reduce one or more adverse effects associated with the administration of cyclosporin. Also disclosed are methods for using and preparing the formulations.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward cis and trans-isomers of cyclosporin A analogs referred to as ISATX247, and derivatives thereof. ISATX247 isomers and alkylated, arylated, and deuterated derivatives are synthesized by stereoselective pathways where the particular conditions of a reaction determine the degree of stereoselectivity. Stereoselective pathways may utilize a Wittig reaction, or an organometallic reagent comprising inorganic elements such as boron, silicon, titanium, and lithium. The ratio of isomers in a mixture may range from about 10 to 90 percent by weight of the (E)-isomer to about 90 to 10 percent by weight of the (Z)-isomer, based on the total weight of the mixture.
摘要:
Isolated metabolites of the cyclosporine analog ISA247 are disclosed, including in vitro methods for their preparation. The metabolites comprise a chemical modification of ISA247, wherein the modification is at least one reaction selected from the group consisting of hydroxylation, N-demethylation, diol formation, epoxide formation, and intramolecular cyclization phosphorylation, sulfation, glucuronide formation and glycosylation. Methods of preparation include semi-synthetic methods, wherein metabolites of ISA247 are produced from the microsomal extracts of animal liver cells, or from cultures using microorganisms, and completely synthetic methods, such as chemically modifying the parent compound or isolated metabolites using organic synthetic methods.
摘要:
This invention provides modified rapamycins that have specific monosaccharide(s), oligosaccharide(s), pseudosugar(s) or derivatives thereof attached through a linker to create rapamycin carbohydrate derivatives having enhanced pharmacokinetic and/or pharmacodynamic profiles. For example, administration of the rapamycin carbohydrate derivative results in altered pharmacokinetic profiles and reduced toxicities. Thus, the present invention provides compounds with characteristics that are distinct from other drugs in its class such as rapamycin.

摘要:
Use of 13C glucose in an analytical assay to monitor glucose metabolism by measurement of labeled exhaled CO2 is provided. A breath test and kit for performing the breath test are described for the diagnosis of diabetic indications and monitoring of glycemic control. The breath test utilizes the measurement of expired 13C-labeled CO2 following the ingestion of a 13C-enriched glucose source.
