  • Publication number: 20200171022
    Abstract: Inventors have evaluated the effects of the FLT3 inhibitors on morphine analgesic potency, on tolerance to morphine analgesia and on morphine-induced mechanical pain hypersensitivity. When the FLT3 inhibitor was administered together with morphine, the amount of analgesic effect was higher than that produced by morphine alone. Repeated administration of morphine induced a progressive decrease in morphine-induced analgesia as showed by the decreased percentage of MPE in control animals. Intrathecal pre-treatment with an FLT3 inhibitor reduced the decrease in morphine analgesia. The administration of FLT3 inhibitors completely prevented both the development of morphine-induced pain hypersensitivity and morphine-revealed latent pain sensitization. Accordingly, the invention relates to an FLT3 inhibitor for increasing the efficacy of an opioid for its analgesic effect, and hereby reducing the opioid dose while maintaining the opioid efficacy in a subject suffering from pain in need thereof.

  • Publication number: 20200171058
    Abstract: The present discovery pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present discovery pertains to a particular 1-di-alkyl-phosphinoyl-alkane, 1-(Diisopropyl-phosphinoyl)-nonane, referred to herein as “DIPA-1-9”. Surprisingly and unexpectedly, DIPA-1-9, is able to selectively treat (e.g., suppress) sensory discomfort arising from the lumenal epithelial lining of the pharynx and esophagus without side effects. Compared to structurally similar compounds, DIPA-1-9 did not have the problems of painful cold, stinging, or irritancy, or of adverse taste when applied in the oral cavity. To deliver the DIPA-1-9 to the lumenal epithelium of the pharynx and esophagus, an ideal formulation for delivery is a solution of DIPA-1-9 in syrup, at a concentration of 5 to 12 mg/mL and a delivery volume of less than 1 mL. The delivery unit can be a plastic vial with a design such that the syrup is poured onto the base of the tongue, next to the pillars of fauces.
