Abstract: Drug products in the form of modified release formulations comprising the drug substance (-)-(3aR,45,7aR)-4-Hydroxy-4m-tolylethynyl-octahydro-indole-1-carboxylic acid methyl ester (AFQ056), as well as processes for making such drug products are provided. The drug products are useful in treating patients with Parkinson's disease and exhibiting L-dopa induced dyskinesia.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of assessing the appropriate therapeutic dose of 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid to administer to a patient in need thereof, comprising the steps of: (i) testing whether or not the patient has the poor metabolizer genotype; and (ii) if the patient does not have the poor metaboliser genotype, administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to the patient at the standard therapeutic dose; and (iii) if the patient does have the poor metaboliser genotype, either (a) administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to the patient at a therapeutic dose below that of the standard therapeutic dose; or (b) not administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxy

Abstract: The invention provides a method of assessing the appropriate therapeutic dose of 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyi-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid to administer to a patient in need thereof, comprising the steps of: (i) testing whether or not the patient has the poor metabolizer genotype; and (ii) if the patient does not have the poor metaboliser genotype, administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to the patient at the standard therapeutic dose; and (iii) if the patient does have the poor metaboliser genotype, either (a) administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to the patient at a therapeutic dose below that of the standard therapeutic dose; or (b) not administering 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxy

Abstract: The invention provides a method of assessing the appropriate therapeutic dose of 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid to administer to a patient in need thereof. It is determined whether a patient has a particular metabolizer genotype. If the patient does not have a particular genotype, 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered at a standard dose. If the patient has the poor metaboliser genotype, either 1-{4-[1-(4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino)-ethyl]-2-ethyl-benzyl}-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered at a dose below that of the standard therapeutic dose; or is not dosed at all.
