Abstract:
The present invention relates to derivatives of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) having improved anti-inflammatory properties useful in the treatment of inflammation, pain and fever. More particularly, NSAIDs are derivatized with a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) releasing moiety to produce novel anti-inflammatory compounds having reduced side effects.
Abstract:
Derivatives of drugs are provided, said derivatives comprising the H2S-releasing moiety 4-hydroxythiobenzamide that is either covalently linked to the drug or forms a salt with the drug. The compounds of the present invention exhibit enhanced activity or reduced side effects or both.
Abstract:
The present invention provides new derivatives of 4- or 5-aminosalicylic acid, and a pharmaceutical composition containing these derivatives of 4- or 5-aminosalicylic acid as active ingredients, useful for the treatment of intestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and for the prevention/treatment of colon cancer. More particularly, these derivatives comprise a hydrogen sulfide releasing moiety linked via an azo, an ester, an anhydride, a thioester or an amide linkage to a molecule of 4- or 5-aminosalicylic acid. Furthermore, the present invention provides a process for preparing these compounds and their use for treating IBD and IBS and the prevention/treatment of colon cancer.
Abstract:
Unique salts of trimebutine and N-monodesmethyl trimebutine, and their corresponding stereoisomers, having improved analgesic properties useful in the treatment of visceral pain are provided. The salts of the present invention are particularly useful in the treatment of conditions characterized by abdominal pain, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diabetic gastroparesis, and dyspepsia.
