Abstract: The present invention relates to the compounds 6-[4-(N-methyl-3-azetidinoxy)-5-ethyl-2-methoxy-phenyl]-pyridin-2-ylamine, 6-[4-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)-5-ethyl-2-methoxy-phenyl]-pyridin-2-ylamine, 6-[4-(N-methylaminomethyl)-5-ethyl-2-methoxy-phenyl]-pyridin-2-ylamine and 6-[4-(3-azetidinoxy)-5-ethyl-2-methoxy-phenyl]-pyridin-2-ylamine, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, to pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and to the use of such compounds in the treatment and prevention of central nervous system and other disorders.
Abstract: The invention relates to substituted aryl and heteroaryl (R)-Chiral Halogenated 1-Substitutedamino-(n+1)-Alkanol compounds useful as inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP; plasma lipid transfer protein-I) and compounds, compositions and methods for treating atherosclerosis and other coronary artery diseases. Novel high yield, stereoselective processes for the preparation of the chiral substituted alkanol compounds from chiral and achiral intermediates are described. Preferred (R)-Chiral 1-Substitutedamino-(n+1)-Alkanol compounds are substituted (R)-Chiral N,N-bis-phenyl aminoalcohols. A preferred specific (R)-Chiral N,N-bis phenyl aminoclcohol is the compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to polynucleotides associated with angiogenesis-related disorders. The present invention also relates to canine endostatin genes, novel genes associated with angiogenesis-related disorders, such as cancer. The invention encompasses endostatin nucleic acids, recombinant DNA molecules, cloned genes or degenerate variants thereof, endostatin gene products and antibodies directed against such gene products, cloning vectors containing mammalian endostatin gene molecules, and hosts that have been genetically engineered to express such molecules. The invention further relates to methods for the identification of compounds that modulate the expression of endostatin genes and gene products and to using such compounds as therapeutic agents in the treatment of angiogenesis-related disorders, e.g., cancer. The invention also relates to methods for the diagnostic evaluation, genetic testing and prognosis of angiogenesis-related disorders, e.g.
Abstract: Conventional spray-drying methods are improved by incorporation of a pressure nozzle and a diffuser plate to improve the flow of drying gas and a drying chamber extension to increase drying time, such improvements leading to the formation of homogeneous solid dispersions of drugs in concentration-enhancing polymers.

Abstract: This invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and kits comprising pyridazinone compounds and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, therapeutic methods of treatment or prevention of certain complications arising from diabetes mellitus in mammals and therapeutic methods of treatment or prevention of cardiac tissue ischemia in mammals.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a veterinary composition for the prophylaxis and treatment of mastitis in mammals, preferably cows. The formulations of the present invention comprise two parts that are optionally administered to the animal as a blended formulation or two separate formulations. The first part is a seal formulation comprising a gel base and a non-toxic heavy metal salt in the base. The second part of the formulation is an oil-based product preferably containing an antibiotic in an oil-based formulation. The oil-based formulation may also optionally contain any other pharmaceutically active agent for the treatment or prophylaxis of disease in cattle.
Abstract: A dosage form comprises (1) a solid amorphous dispersion comprising a cholesterol ester transfer protein inhibitor and an acidic concentration-enhancing polymer and (2) an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor. The solid amorphous dispersion and the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor are combined in the dosage form so that the solid amorphous dispersion and the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor are substantially separate from one another in the dosage form.
