Abstract: The present invention provides therapeutic combinations and methods for treating or preventing a hypercholesterolemia-related or an inflammation-related condition in a subject in need of such treatment or prevention. One therapeutic combination comprises an ASBT inhibitor combined with COX-2 inhibitor. A further therapeutic combination comprises an ASBT inhibitor, a COX-2 inhibitor and an HMG Co-A reductase inhibitor. Another therapeutic combination comprises a chromene COX-2 inhibitor and an HMG Co-A reductase inhibitor.

Abstract: Treatment with a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene B4 receptor antagonist is described as being useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: A method of treating, preventing, or inhibiting ALS, in a subject in need of such treatment, inhibition or prevention. The method comprises administering to a subject one or more cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s), or isomer(s), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof, wherein the amount of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s), isomer(s), ester(s), salt(s) or prodrug(s) thereof constitutes an ALS treatment, inhibition or prevention effective amount of the COX 2 inhibitor(s).

Abstract: A method of treating, preventing, or inhibiting ALS, in a subject in need of such treatment, inhibition or prevention. The method comprises administering to a subject one or more cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof, in combination with one or more second drugs, wherein the amount of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof in combination with the amount of second drug(s) constitutes an ALS treatment, inhibition or prevention effective amount.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for the treatment or prevention of a vaso-occlusive event. More particularly, the invention provides a combination therapy for the treatment or prevention of a vaso-occlusive event comprising the administration to a subject of a thrombolytic agent in combination with a cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor.

Abstract: A method of treating, preventing, or inhibiting PD, in a subject in need of such treatment, inhibition or prevention. The method comprises treating the subject with one or more cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof, in combination with one or more second drugs, wherein the amount of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof in combination with the amount of second drug(s) constitutes a PD treatment, inhibition or prevention effective amount.

Abstract: Treatment with a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene B4 receptor antagonist is described as being useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: Treatment with a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene A4 hydrolase inhibitor is described as being useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: This invention is in the field of a combination comprising a therapeutically-effective amount of a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor and an immunosuppressive drug selected from antiproliferative agents, antiinflammatory-acting compounds and inhibitors of leukocyte activation. This combination may be used, for example, to suppress the immune response associated with organ transplantation, graft versus host disease, and conditions with underlying autoimmune or inflammatory reactivities or responses.

Abstract: Combinations of a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene B4 receptor antagonist are described for treatment of inflammation and inflammation-related disorders.

Abstract: Treatment with a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene A4 hydrolase inhibitor is described as being useful in reducing recipient rejection of transplanted organs and for treatment of autoimmnune diseases.

Abstract: A method to suppress immune, acute or delayed-type hypersensitivity by treatment with a combination of a therapeutically-effective amount of a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor and a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor is reported. The method may be used, for example, to suppress the immune response associated with organ transplantation, graft versus host disease, and conditions with underlying autoimmune or inflammatory reactivities or responses.

Abstract: Combinations of a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor and a leukotriene B4 receptor antagonist are described for treatment of inflammation and inflammation-related disorders.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting concentrations of cyclooxygenase-2 in a mammal, the method comprising: administering to the mammal a diagnostically effective amount of a cyclooxygenase-2 selective agent, which is capable of being detected in vivo; and b) detecting the agent so the concentration of cyclooxygenase-2 is detected.
