[0006] Pharmaceutical compositions The compositions and methods described herein can be used to treat individuals in need. In some embodiments, the individuals are mammals, such as humans or non-human mammals. When administered to animals such as humans, the compositions or compounds are preferably administered in the form of pharmaceutical compositions comprising, for example, the compounds described herein and pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are well known in the art and, as non-limiting examples, include aqueous solutions, such as water or physiologically buffered saline, or other solvents or mediators, such as glycols, glycerols, oils such as olive oil, or injectable organic esters. In preferred embodiments, when such pharmaceutical compositions are administered to humans, particularly via invasive routes of administration (i.e., injection or implantation routes that circumvent transport or diffusion across the epithelial barrier), the aqueous solutions are pyrogen-free or substantially pyrogen-free. Excipients may be selected, for example, to achieve delayed release of the agent or to selectively target one or more cells, tissues, or organs. Pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of dosage units, such as tablets, capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), granules, lyophilized formulations for reconstitution, powders, solutions, syrups, suppositories, injections, etc. The composition may also be present in transdermal delivery systems, such as skin patches. The composition may also be present in solutions suitable for topical application, such as lotions, creams, or ointments.
[0007] Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers may contain physiologically acceptable agents that, for example, stabilize compounds (such as those described herein), increase their solubility, or enhance their absorption. Such physiologically acceptable agents include, for example, carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, or dextran; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or glutathione; chelating agents; low molecular weight proteins; or other stabilizers or excipients. The choice of pharmaceutically acceptable carriers (including physiologically acceptable agents) depends, for example, on the route of administration of the composition. Formulations or pharmaceutical compositions may be self-emulsifying drug delivery systems or self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems. Pharmaceutical compositions (formulations) may also be liposomes or other polymer matrices in which compounds, such as those described herein, may be incorporated. For example, liposomes containing phospholipids or other lipids are non-toxic, physiologically acceptable, and metabolizable carriers, and their preparation and administration are relatively simple.
[0008] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” as used in this article refers to compounds, materials, compositions, and / or dosage forms that, within a reasonable medical judgment, are suitable for contact with human and animal tissues without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic reactions, or other problems or complications, and that are commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.
[0009] As used herein, the phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition, or medium, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, solvent, or encapsulating material. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense that it is compatible with other components of the formulation and does not harm the patient. Some examples of materials that can be used as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: (1) sugars, such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; (2) starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; (3) cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate; (4) astragalus gum powder; (5) malt; (6) gelatin; (7) talc; (8) excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository wax; (9) oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil, and so on. (10) Soybean oil; (11) Diols, such as propylene glycol; (12) Polyols, such as glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; (13) Esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; (14) Agar; (15) Buffers, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; (16) Alginate; (17) Pyrogenic water; (18) Isotonic saline; (19) Ringer's solution; (20) Ethanol; (21) Phosphate buffer solution; and (22) Other non-toxic and compatible substances used in pharmaceutical formulations.
[0010] The pharmaceutical composition (formulation) can be administered to a subject via any of a variety of routes of administration, including, for example, oral administration (e.g., an infusion in water or a non-aqueous solution or suspension, tablets, capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), granules, powders, pellets, pastes for application to the tongue); absorption through the oral mucosa (e.g., sublingual); subcutaneous; transdermal (e.g., as a patch applied to the skin); and topical application (e.g., as a cream, ointment, or spray applied to the skin). The compound can also be formulated for inhalation. In some embodiments, the compound may simply be dissolved or suspended in sterile water. Details of appropriate routes of administration and compositions thereof can be found, for example, in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,110,973, 5,763,493, 5,731,000, 5,541,231, 5,427,798, 5,358,970 and 4,172,896 and the patents cited therein.
[0011] The formulation can be readily available in unit dosage forms and can be prepared by any method well known in the pharmaceutical field. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending on the host being treated and the specific mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be the amount of the compound that produces the therapeutic effect. Generally, in one hundred parts, this amount will be in the range of about 1% to about 99% of the active ingredient, preferably about 5% to about 70%, and most preferably about 10% to about 30%.
[0012] Methods for preparing these formulations or compositions include the step of associating an active compound (such as the compound described herein) with a carrier and optionally one or more auxiliary components. Generally, formulations are prepared by homogeneously and closely associating the compound described herein with a liquid carrier, or a finely separated solid carrier, or both, and then shaping the product if necessary.
[0013] The formulations described herein suitable for oral administration may be in the following forms: capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), sachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using a flavored base, typically sucrose and gum arabic or tragacanth gum), lyophilized forms, powders, granules, or as solutions or suspensions in aqueous or non-aqueous liquids, or as oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions, or as elixirs or syrups, or as pasteurees (using an inert base, such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and gum arabic), and / or as mouthwashes, each containing a predetermined amount of the compound described herein as an active ingredient. The compositions or compounds may also be administered as pellets, electuals, or pastes.
[0014] To prepare solid dosage forms (capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets, pills, sugar-coated pills, powders, granules, etc.) for oral administration, the active ingredient is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers (such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate) and / or any of the following: (1) fillers or extenders, such as starch, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and / or silica; (2) binders, such as carboxymethyl cellulose, alginate, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and / or gum arabic; (3) humectants, such as glycerin. (4) Disintegrants, such as agar, calcium carbonate, potato starch or cassava starch, alginate, certain silicates and sodium carbonate; (5) Solution blockers, such as paraffin; (6) Absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compositions; (7) Wetting agents, such as cetyl alcohol and glyceryl monostearate; (8) Absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite clay; (9) Lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate and mixtures thereof; (10) Complexing agents, such as modified and unmodified cyclodextrins; and (11) Colorants. In the case of capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), tablets and pills, the pharmaceutical composition may also contain buffers. Similar types of solid compositions may also be used as fillers in soft-filled and hard-filled gelatin capsules using excipients such as lactose or lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycol.
[0015] Tablets can be prepared by compression or molding, optionally containing one or more excipients. Compressed tablets can be prepared using binders (e.g., gelatin or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), lubricants, inert diluents, preservatives, disintegrants (e.g., sodium starch glycolate or croscarmellose sodium), surfactants, or dispersants. Molded tablets can be prepared by molding a mixture of powdered compounds moistened with an inert liquid diluent in a suitable machine.
[0016] Solid dosage forms of tablets and other pharmaceutical compositions, such as sugar-coated pills, capsules (including dispersible capsules and gelatin capsules), pellets, and granules, may optionally be scored or coated and shelled, such as enteric coating or other coatings well known in the field of pharmaceutical formulation. They may also be formulated to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient contained therein using, for example, different proportions of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, other polymer matrices, liposomes, and / or microspheres to provide the desired release characteristics. They may be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial trap or by incorporating a sterilizing agent in the form of a sterile solid composition that is immediately soluble in sterile water or some other sterile injectable medium before use. These compositions may also optionally contain a light-blocking agent and may have a composition that optionally releases the active ingredient in a delayed manner only or preferably in a portion of the gastrointestinal tract. Examples of encapsulation compositions that may be used include polymeric substances and waxes. The active ingredient may also be in microencapsulated form, and where appropriate, have one or more of the excipients described above.
[0017] Liquid dosage forms suitable for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, lyophilized formulations for reconstitution, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to the active ingredient, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, cyclodextrins and their derivatives, solvents and emulsifiers such as ethanol, isopropanol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butanediol, oils (specifically cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerin, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters and mixtures thereof of sorbitan.
[0018] In addition to inert diluents, the oral composition may also contain adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifiers and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, coloring agents, flavoring agents and preservatives.
[0019] In addition to the active compound, the suspension may also contain suspending agents such as ethoxylated isostearyl alcohol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan ester, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum hydroxide, bentonite, agar and tragacanth gum and mixtures thereof.
[0020] Dosage forms for topical or transdermal application include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches, and inhalers. Active compounds may be mixed under aseptic conditions with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and any necessary preservatives, buffers, or propellants.
[0021] In addition to active compounds, ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain excipients such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starches, tragacanth gum, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycol, silicones, bentonite, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide or mixtures thereof.
[0022] In addition to the active compound, powders and aerosols may also contain excipients such as lactose, talc, silica, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicate, and polyamide powders or mixtures thereof. Aerosols may also contain conventional propellants such as chlorofluorocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons (such as butane and propane).
[0023] Transdermal patches offer the added advantage of providing controlled delivery of the compounds described herein into the body. Such dosage forms can also be prepared by dissolving or dispersing the active compound in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound across the skin. The rate of this flux can be controlled by providing a rate-controlled membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrix or gel.
[0024] As used herein, the phrases “parenteral administration” and “extraterrestrial administration” refer to administration methods that are typically administered by injection, other than enteral and local administration, and include, but are not limited to, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, intrathecal, intracapsular, intra-sacral, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, tracheal, subcutaneous, subepidermal, intra-articular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, and intrasternal injections and infusions. Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for parenteral administration comprise one or more active compounds and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable sterile isotonic or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions, or emulsions, or sterile powders that can be reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions immediately before use. These compositions may contain antioxidants, buffers, antibacterial agents, solutes that make the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient, or suspending agents or thickeners.
[0025] Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers that can be used in the pharmaceutical compositions described herein include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, etc.) and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil), and injectable organic esters (such as ethyl oleate). Appropriate flowability can be maintained, for example, by using coating materials (such as lecithin), by maintaining the desired particle size in the case of dispersions, and by using surfactants.
[0026] These compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. Antimicrobial activity can be ensured by including various antibacterial and antifungal agents, such as parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, and sorbic acid. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars and sodium chloride, in the composition. Furthermore, prolonged absorption of injectable drug forms can be achieved by including agents that delay absorption, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
[0027] In some cases, to prolong the effect of a drug, it is desirable to slow down its absorption after subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be achieved by using a liquid suspension of a poorly water-soluble crystalline or amorphous material. The absorption rate of the drug then depends on its dissolution rate, which in turn depends on the crystal size and crystal form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of parenteral drug forms can be achieved by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil-based medium.
[0028] Injectable reservoir formulations are prepared by forming a microencapsulated matrix of the subject compound in a biodegradable polymer such as poly(lactide-polyglycolic acid). The drug release rate can be controlled based on the drug-to-polymer ratio and the properties of the specific polymer used. Other examples of biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Reservoir injection formulations have also been prepared by encapsulating the drug in tissue-compatible liposomes or microemulsions.
[0029] For use in the methods described herein, the active compound may be provided either alone or as a pharmaceutical composition comprising, for example, 0.1% to 99.5% (more preferably 0.5% to 90%) of the active ingredient in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0030] The introduced methods can also be provided by refillable or biodegradable devices. Regarding the controlled delivery of drugs (including protein biopharmaceuticals), various sustained-release polymer devices have been developed and tested in vivo in recent years. A variety of biocompatible polymers (including hydrogels), including both biodegradable and non-degradable polymers, can be used to form implants to sustainably release compounds at specific target sites.
[0031] The actual dose level of the active ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition can be varied to obtain an amount of active ingredient that is effective in achieving the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and administration mode, without being toxic to the patient.
[0032] The chosen dose level depends on a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound or combination of compounds used or its esters, salts or amides, the route of administration, the time of administration, the excretion rate of the specific compound used, the duration of treatment, other drugs, compounds and / or materials used in combination with the specific compound used, the age, sex, weight, condition, overall health status and prior medical history of the patient being treated, and similar factors well known in the medical field.
[0033] A physician or veterinarian with ordinary skill in the art can readily determine and prescribe the required therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition. For example, a physician or veterinarian may start with a dose of a pharmaceutical composition or compound below the level required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dose until the desired effect is achieved. “Therapeutically effective amount” means the concentration of a compound sufficient to cause the desired therapeutic effect. It should generally be understood that the effective amount of a compound will vary depending on the subject’s weight, sex, age, and medical history. Other factors affecting the effective amount may include, but are not limited to, the severity of the patient’s illness, the condition being treated, the stability of the compound, and another type of therapeutic agent, if desired, to be administered in conjunction with the compound described herein. A greater total dose can be delivered by administering the agent multiple times. Methods for determining efficacy and dosage are known to those skilled in the art (Isselbacher et al. (1996) Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 13th edition, 1814–1882, which are incorporated herein by reference).
[0034] Generally, the appropriate daily dose of the active compound used in the compositions and methods described herein will be the amount of the compound at which the minimum effective therapeutic effect is achieved. This effective dose will generally depend on the factors described above.
[0035] If desired, the effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered as one, two, three, four, five, six or more sub-dose, administered at appropriate intervals throughout the day, optionally in unit dosage form. In some embodiments, the active compound may be administered two or three times daily. In a preferred embodiment, the active compound will be administered once daily.
[0036] Patients receiving this treatment are any animals in need, including primates, especially humans; and other mammals such as horses, cattle, pigs, sheep, cats and dogs; poultry; and pets in general.
[0037] In some embodiments, the compounds described herein may be used alone or in combination with another type of therapeutic agent.

[0042] Definitions Unless otherwise defined herein, the scientific and technical terms used in this application shall have the meanings commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. Generally, the names and techniques used herein in conjunction with chemistry, cell and tissue culture, molecular biology, cell and cancer biology, neurobiology, neurochemistry, virology, immunology, microbiology, pharmacology, genetics, and protein and nucleic acid chemistry are those well-known and commonly used in the art.
[0043] Unless otherwise indicated, the methods and techniques disclosed herein are generally performed in accordance with conventional methods well known in the art and described in various general and more specific references cited and discussed throughout this specification.
[0044] Unless otherwise defined herein, chemical terms used herein are used in accordance with the usual usage in the art, as illustrated in "The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms", ed. Parker S., McGraw-Hill, San Francisco, CA (1985).
[0045] All references to the foregoing and any other publications, patents, and published patent applications mentioned in this patent application are expressly incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any conflict, this specification (including its specific definitions) shall prevail.
[0046] This document uses the term "agent" to refer to compounds (such as organic or inorganic compounds, mixtures of compounds), biological macromolecules (such as nucleic acids, antibodies, including their portions and humanized, chimeric and human antibodies and monoclonal antibodies, proteins or portions thereof, such as peptides, lipids, carbohydrates), or extracts made from biological materials such as bacteria, plants, fungi, or animal (especially mammalian) cells or tissues. Agents include, for example, agents with known structures and agents with unknown structures.
[0047] The terms “patient,” “subject,” or “individual” are used interchangeably and refer to humans or non-human animals. These terms include mammals such as humans, primates, livestock (including cattle, pigs, etc.), companion animals (e.g., dogs, felines, etc.), and rodents (e.g., mice and rats).
[0048] “Treatment” of a disease or patient refers to taking measures to obtain a beneficial or desired outcome, including clinical outcomes. As used herein and well understood in the art, “treatment” is a means of obtaining a beneficial or desired outcome (including clinical outcomes). Beneficial or desired clinical outcomes may include, but are not limited to, the reduction or improvement of one or more symptoms or conditions, a decrease in the severity of the disease, stabilization of the disease state (i.e., no worsening), prevention of disease spread, delay or slowing of disease progression, improvement or mitigation of the disease state, and remission (whether partial or complete), whether detectable or undetectable. “Treatment” may also mean prolonged survival compared to the expected survival without treatment.
[0049] The term "prevention" is recognized in the art and is well known in the art when used in relation to conditions such as local recurrence (e.g., pain), diseases such as cancer, symptoms such as heart failure, or any other medical condition, and includes administering a composition that, relative to a subject not receiving the composition, reduces the frequency of symptoms of the subject's medical condition or delays its onset. Thus, cancer prevention includes, for example, reducing, in statistically and / or clinically significant amounts, the number of detectable cancerous growths in a patient population receiving prophylactic treatment relative to an untreated control population, and / or delaying the occurrence of detectable cancerous growths in the treated population relative to the untreated control population.
[0050] The "application" of a substance, compound, or agent to a subject, or the "administration" of a substance, compound, or agent, may be carried out using one of a variety of methods known to those skilled in the art. For example, a compound or agent may be administered intravenously, intra-arterially, intradermally, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, via the eyes, sublingually, orally (by ingestion), intranasally (by inhalation), intraspinally, intracerebrally, and percutaneously (by absorption, e.g., via a skin tube). The compound or agent may also be suitably introduced via a rechargeable or biodegradable polymer device or other means, such as patches and pumps, or formulations that provide a prolonged, slow, or controlled release of the compound or agent. Administration may also be performed, for example, once, multiple times, and / or over one or more extended time periods.
[0051] The appropriate method of administering a substance, compound, or agent to a subject will also depend on factors such as the subject's age and / or physical condition, and the chemical and biological properties of the compound or agent (e.g., solubility, digestibility, bioavailability, stability, and toxicity). In some embodiments, the compound or agent is administered orally to the subject, for example, by ingestion. In some embodiments, the orally administered compound or agent is a prolonged-release or slow-release formulation, or is administered using a device for such slow or prolonged release.
[0052] As used herein, the phrase "combined administration" refers to any form of administration of two or more different therapeutic agents such that the second agent is administered while the previously administered therapeutic agent is still effective in the body (e.g., when at least 5% of the pharmaceutical product is systematically detected using industry-acceptable methods, or when both agents are simultaneously effective in a patient, which may include the synergistic effect of the two agents). For example, different therapeutic compounds may be administered simultaneously or sequentially in the same formulation or in separate formulations. In some embodiments, different therapeutic compounds may be administered at intervals of one hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, 36 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, or one week. Thus, an individual receiving such treatment may benefit from the combined effect of the different therapeutic agents.
[0053] The “therapeutic effective amount” or “therapeutic dose” of a compound or other agent described herein is the amount of drug or agent that will have the expected therapeutic effect when administered to a subject. A complete therapeutic effect may not necessarily occur with the administration of a single dose of such drug or agent, but may only occur after the administration of a series of doses (multiple consecutive doses). Therefore, a therapeutic effective amount can be administered in one or multiple doses. The precise effective amount required by the subject will depend, for example, on the subject’s physical condition, health, and age, as well as the nature and extent of the condition being treated (such as cancer).
[0054] As used herein, the terms “optional” or “optionally” mean that the event or situation described below may or may not occur, and the description includes both cases in which the event or situation occurs and cases in which the event or situation does not occur. For example, “optionally substituted alkyl” means both cases in which the alkyl group may be substituted and cases in which the alkyl group is not substituted.
