  • Patent number: 9067914
    Abstract: Tropomyosin-related kinase inhibitors (Trk inhibitors) are small molecule compounds useful in the treatment of disease. Trk inhibitors can be used as pharmaceutical agents and in pharmaceutical compositions. Trk inhibitors are useful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, autoimmune disease, defects of bone metabolism and/or cancer, and are particularly useful in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA), pain, and pain associated with OA. Trk inhibitors are also useful for inhibiting tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA), tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB), tropomyosin-related kinase C (TrkC), and/or c-FMS (the cellular receptor for colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1)).

  • Patent number: 9040564
    Abstract: It is intended to provide a pharmaceutical composition which contains a proton pump inhibitor and is stable even if it is stored for a long time. It is also intended to provide a pharmaceutical composition which contains a proton pump inhibitor susceptible to acid, and does not dissolve in the stomach but dissolves in the intestine to release a primary drug product promptly. The object could be achieved by the pharmaceutical composition characterized in that a layer containing a proton pump inhibitor and ethyl cellulose, a layer containing an enteric polymer, and if necessary an intermediate layer composed of one or more layers are formed on a pharmacologically inactive core substance. The intermediate layer is composed of a water-insoluble polymer, a water-soluble polymer, a lubricant and the like.
