Abstract:
CD73 (also known as ecto-5´-nucleotidase) inhibitor compounds are provided, as well as compositions and uses thereof for treating or preventing CD73-associated or related diseases, disorders and conditions, including cancer- and immune-related disorders. CD73 inhibitor compounds include compounds having the structure set forth in Formula I': (I') and pharmaceutically acceptable esters or salts thereof.
Abstract:
The invention relates to methods, compounds, compositions and vehicles for delivering 3-amino-1 -propanesulfonic acid (3APS) in a subject, preferably a human subject. The invention encompasses compounds that will yield or generate 3APS, either in vitro or in vivo. Preferred compounds include amino acid prodrugs of 3APS for use, including but not limited to, the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of amidine compounds in the treatment of amyloid-related diseases. In particular, the invention relates to a method of treating or preventing an amyloid-related disease in a subject comprising administering to the subject a therapeutic amount of an amidine compound. Among the compounds for use according to the invention are those according to the following Formula (I), such that, when administered, amyloid fibril formation, neurodegeneration, or cellular toxicity is reduced or inhibited: Formula (I).
Abstract:
Methods of treating or preventing an amyloid-related disease in a subject by administering to a subject a therapeutic amount of a compound of the invention are described. Also included are methods for inhibiting epileptogenesis in a subject, by administering to a subject an effective amount of an anti-epileptogenic agent. Methods for treating a subject suffering from an epileptogenesis-associated condition, by administering to the subject an effective amount of an anti-epileptogenic agent are also included. Methods for treating convulsions in a subject by administering to the subject an effective amount of a therapeutic amount of a compound of the invention are also described.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to methods of preparation of sulfonate derivatized compounds, e.g., 3-amino-l-propanesulfonic acid and 1,3-propanedisulfonic acid disodium salt with increased purity, with reduced potential for toxic by-products, and that are pharmaceutically useful, e.g., for the treatment of amyloidosis.
Abstract:
There are provided isotope-enriched compounds containing stable heavy isotope-enriched amide functional groups for modulating the pharmacokinetic profile, metabolic profile, and/or delivery efficiency of a drug or prodrug, as well as its therapeutic or prophylactic efficacy and/or adverse effects. Use of the isotope-enriched amide-containing drugs and prodrugs for the treatment or prevention of disease states and conditions is also provided. (I)

Abstract:
Methods, compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and kits are described for treating or preventing CNS and amyloid associated disease. Also described are methods, compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and kits for detecting, diagnosing, monitoring and treating or preventing CNS and amyloid associated disease.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a stereochemically based "non-self" antigen vaccine for the prevention and/or treatment of Alzheimer's and other amyloid related diseases. The present invention provides a vaccine for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's and other amyloid related diseases, which overcomes the drawbacks associated with using naturally occurring peptides, proteins or immunogens.
