Publication number: 20180036259Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2016Publication date: February 8, 2018Applicant: MIRANDAPHARMACEUTICALS AGInventors: Pierre VANKAN, Hubert STÜCKLER, Armin SCHERHAG
