Abstract: Methods for treating or preventing kidney diseases and fibrosis, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney fibrosis, heart fibrosis, uterine fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis, with compounds of Formulae (I), (IA), (IB), (IC), (ID), (IE), (IF), (IG), (IH), (IJ), (II), (III), (IIIA), and (IIIB); pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof; and compositions thereof.

Abstract: This invention provides methods for treating or preventing kidney diseases and fibrosis, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney fibrosis, heart fibrosis, uterine fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis, with compounds of Formulae (I), (IA), (IB), (IC), (ID), (IE), (IF), (IG), (IH), (IJ), (II), (III), (IIIA), and (IIIB); pharmaceutically acceptable salts and solvates thereof; and compositions thereof.

Abstract: This disclosure provides, at least in part, a pharmaceutical product comprising: setmelanotide (also known as RM493); setmelanotide as sole active pharmaceutical ingredient formulated for injection; setmelanotide as the sole active ingredient; setmelanotide as the active pharmaceutical ingredient; setmelanotide as the active pharmaceutical ingredient for injection; or another pharmaceutical composition that has its primary mechanism of action at the MC4 receptor as an agonist (referred to herein as an MC4RAp), e.g., a lipid excipient, and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical product described herein provides a sustained prelease of setmelanotide or another pharmaceutical composition, which may result in a more desirable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile upon administration.

Abstract: An amidopyridinol derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition including the amidopyridinol derivative as an active component represented by Chemical Formula 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof have an antiangiogenic effect in a chorioallantoic membrane model, and thus are useful as an agent for preventing or treating diseases associated with angiogenesis, and also have a colitis-inhibitory effect in a model of inflammatory bowel diseases, and thus are useful as an agent for preventing or treating inflammatory bowel diseases. Upon inoculation of lung cancer cells in a chorioallantoic membrane model, the amidopyridinol derivative of Chemical Formula 1 or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth that are caused by tumorigenesis, and also inhibits the activity of cathepsin S that plays an important role in metastasis and invasion of cancer, and thus is useful as an inhibitor of cancer growth and metastasis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an amidopyridinol derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition including an amidopyridinol derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active component. An amidopyridinol derivative represented by Chemical Formula 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof has an excellent antiangiogenic effect in a chorioallantoic membrane model, and thus is useful as an agent for preventing or treating diseases associated with angiogenesis, such as macular degeneration or arthritis, and also has an excellent colitis-inhibitory effect in a model of inflammatory bowel diseases, and thus is useful as an agent for preventing or treating inflammatory bowel diseases.
