  • Publication number: 20180036259
    Abstract: A method for treatment of prophylaxis of a chronic disease or condition associated with impaired tissue or organ perfusion, comprising administering an amino-C2-C6-alkyl nitrate, an amino-C2-C4-alkyl nitrate, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a patient in need thereof. The disease or condition is a micro- and/or macro-vascular disease selected from the group of diseases associated with impaired capillary function, impaired muscular function, impaired skin function, impaired cartilage function, impaired myocardial function, impaired retinal function or impaired organ function caused by impairment of tissue and organ perfusion or by impairment of the regeneration of capillaries, arterioles or other vascular tissue. Examples of such diseases are diseases associated with impaired wound healing (including burning injuries), ulcers (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20110053954
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of treatment and/or prevention of brain, spinal or nerve injury comprising administration to a person in need of such treatment, of a therapeutically effective amount of an NK-1 receptor antagonist compound of the formula wherein the meanings of R, R1, R2, R2?, R3, and R4 are explained in the specification and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and the prodrugs thereof either alone or in combination with a magnesium salt. Exemplified is the use of N-(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-N-methyl-6-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-4-o-tolyl-nicotinamide. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more such NK-1 receptor antagonists, optionally in combination with a magnesium salt, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient for the treatment and/or prevention of brain, spinal or nerve injury.

  • Publication number: 20060228752
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for correlating single nucleotide polymorphisms in the preprotachykinin (NKNA) gene with the efficacy and compatibility of a pharmaceutically active compound administered to a human being. The invention further relates to a method for determining the efficacy and compatibility of a pharmaceutically active compound administered to a human being which method comprises determining at least one single nucleotide polymorphism in the NKNA gene. Said methods are based on determining specific single nucleotide polymorphisms in the NKNA gene and determining the efficacy and compatibility of a pharmaceutically active compound in the human by reference to polymorphism in NKNA.
