US Patent:

6953808, Oct 11, 2005

Filed:

Jan 14, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/757059

Inventors:

Nancy M. Gray - Marlborough MA, US

Assignee:

Sepracor Inc. - Marlborough MA

International Classification:

A61K031/44

US Classification:

514338

Abstract:

Methods and compositions are disclosed utilizing optically pure (−) pantoprazole for the treatment of ulcers in humans while substantially reducing the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of pantoprazole. The optically pure (−) isomer is also useful for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux. (−) Pantoprazole is an inhibitor of H release and is therefore useful in the treatment of other conditions related to gastric hypersecretion such as Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome.

Inventors:

Nancy Gray - Marlborough MA, US

International Classification:

A61K031/47

US Classification:

514/310000

Abstract:

Methods and compositions are disclosed utilizing optically pure (+)-zileuton for the treatment of asthma, rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis in humans while substantially reducing the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of zileuton. (+)-Zileuton is an inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase and is therefore useful in the treatment of other conditions related to elevated leukotriene levels (+)-Zileuton is also an antioxidant and is therefore useful in treating or preventing atherosclerosis.

International Classification:

A61K 31445

US Classification:

514327

Abstract:

The optically pure (-) isomer of cisapride is useful for the treatment of dyspepsia and such other conditions as may be related to the activity of (-) cisapride as a prokinetic agent, such as gastroparesis, constipation, post-operative ileus, and intestinal pseudo-obstruction, without the concomitant liability of adverse effects associated with the racemic mixture of cisapride. The (-) isomer of cisapride also exhibits longer duration of action than does racemic cisapride and is useful for treatment of disorders of the central nervous system.
