Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] This application relates to the field of pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating the signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoal, and / or fungal infections, particularly using therapeutic highly permeable prodrugs, while preventing an overactive immune system and avoiding or minimizing other side effects. [Background technology]
[0002] Bacteria can cause many types of infections in the human body and other living organisms, such as urinary tract infections, gastrointestinal infections, ear infections, strep throat, etc. Many bacteria can cause deadly diseases, such as tuberculosis, streptococcus, syphilis, staphylococcus, aspergillus, tetanus, vibrio cholera, salmonella, clostridium botulinum, E. Coli, etc. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections, but most bacteria reproduce by dividing every few hours, allowing them to evolve rapidly and adapt quickly to new environmental conditions. Mutations occur during replication, and some of these mutations may help individual bacteria survive exposure to antibiotics. Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are difficult to treat and sometimes impossible to treat. Each year in the United States, at least 2.8 million people become infected with antibiotic-resistant bacteria or fungi, and more than 35,000 people die as a result (Non-Patent Document 1).
[0003] Protozoa is an informal term for a group of single-celled eukaryotic organisms, either free-living or parasitic, that feed on other microorganisms or on organic matter such as organic tissues and organic debris. Protozoan infections cause diseases in many types of organisms, including plants, animals, and some marine organisms. Many of the most widespread and deadly human diseases, including African sleeping sickness, amoebic dysentery, and malaria, are caused by protozoan infections. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that in 2019, there were 229 million new cases of malaria, causing 409,000 deaths (Non-Patent Document 2). Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease that affects humans and other animals, typically causing symptoms that include fever, fatigue, vomiting, and headache. In severe cases, malaria can cause yellow skin, seizures, coma, or death. Malaria is associated with several severe complications, among these being the development of respiratory distress. Like bacteria, protozoa evolve rapidly and adapt quickly to new environmental conditions, resulting in drug resistance. Drug resistance is causing an increasing problem in malaria treatment in the 21st century (Non-Patent Document 3). Resistance is now common to all classes of antimalarial drugs.
[0004] Fungi are multicellular, plant-like organisms. Many fungal infections, such as athlete's foot and yeast infections, are not dangerous to healthy people. However, people with weakened immune systems (due to diseases such as HIV or cancer or serious viral infections) can develop more serious fungal infections. Most fungi reproduce very quickly, which allows them to evolve rapidly and adapt quickly to new environmental conditions, thus becoming drug resistant.
[0005] Viruses are submicroscopic infectious agents that replicate only within the living cells of an organism. Viruses need to use structures of other cells to reproduce. Once inside the human body, viruses can spread rapidly and make a person sick. Examples of common human diseases caused by viruses include the common cold, influenza, chicken pox, and herpes simplex. Many serious diseases are caused by viruses, such as rabies, Ebola virus disease, AIDS (HIV), avian influenza, H1N1, SARS, and COVID-19. Viral infections in animals usually trigger an immune response that eliminates the infecting virus, but the human or animal immune system may overreact and cause the death of the human or animal by its own immune system.
[0006] Viral, bacterial, protozoal, and fungal infections can become aggressive and life-threatening infections. Common symptoms of most bacterial, protozoal, fungal, and viral infections include fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, fever, night sweats, chills, aches, inflammation, cough, shortness of breath, and pains. Typical symptoms of bacterial infections are localized redness, fever, swelling, and pain at the site of infection. Acute inflammation can cause pain, tissue redness (blood vessels and capillary oozing), tissue swelling, and after damaging the tissue, promote bacterial, protozoal, and / or fungal infections, especially in the cavities, urinary tract, digestive system, ears, eyes, and nose. Generally, viral infections are systemic, affecting many different parts of the body simultaneously, causing, for example, runny nose, cough, and body aches. In all cases, bacteria, fungi, and viruses infect one cell or one tissue and then begin to spread throughout the body, infecting many other cells or tissues, and in some cases causing death to the person.
[0007] Viral, bacterial, protozoan, and / or fungal infections all involve an immune system response, causing inflammation and fever. Overactivation or misregulation of the immune system can lead to uncontrollable high fever and severe inflammatory conditions, such as severe inflammation of the lungs, kidneys, liver, brain, and other tissues, as well as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ARDS in particular is a type of respiratory failure characterized by the rapid onset of widespread inflammation in the lungs, causing a drop in blood oxygen that can be life-threatening. Symptoms include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, and bluish skin discoloration. Inflammation can lead to fibroids and scarring of tissues, preventing immune cells from entering the infection site and killing the virus, leading to lifelong or chronic infections in which the virus continues to replicate in the body despite the host's defense mechanisms.
[0008] Current nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) do not significantly reduce the overall symptoms or duration of respiratory infections. Furthermore, the use of NSAIDs is associated with an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity, including gastric and duodenal bleeding, gastric ulcers, gastritis, and GI perforation (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 4, Non-Patent Document 5, Non-Patent Document 6, Non-Patent Document 7, and Non-Patent Document 8). Meta-analyses have reported that NSAIDs increase the risk of myocardial infarction or death from cardiovascular disease by 50% to 100% compared to placebo (see Non-Patent Document 9).
[0009] In addition, there is an urgent need to develop effective therapies against new disease outbreaks. For example, more than 275 million people worldwide have been infected with novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19, or SARS-CoV-2), and over 5 million have died. Infection with COVID-19 in humans is accompanied by a wide range of clinical respiratory syndromes, ranging from mild upper respiratory tract symptoms such as fever, headache, loss of taste or smell, sore throat, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, cough, fatigue, anorexia, myalgia, and diarrhea, to progressive, life-threatening viral pneumonia (Non-Patent Documents 10 and 11). With the rapid mutation of COVID and the emergence of new variants, humanity's fight against the pandemic is likely to be intense for the foreseeable future.
[0010] SARS-CoV-2, the etiological agent of COVID-19, is causing the current pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 causes a diverse manifestation that spans from head to toe, seemingly indiscriminately wreaking havoc on multiple organ systems, particularly the lungs, heart, brain, kidneys, and vascular system. The concept of COVID-19 as an endothelial disease provides a unified pathophysiological picture of this raging infection and also provides a framework for rational therapeutic strategies at a time when we have only a very modest evidence base to guide therapeutic efforts to confront this emerging pandemic (Non-Patent Document 12).

[Brief description of the drawings]
[0026] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 shows Kaplan-Meier survival curves for an efficacy study of survival of Balb / c mice treated with HPP after challenge with a lethal dose of mouse-adapted influenza A PR / 8 / 34 (H1N1). DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0027] I. Treatment of signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoal, and fungal infections In one aspect, the disclosure provides HPP for the treatment of signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoan, and / or fungal infections, such as fever, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), pneumonia, inflammation of the brain, kidney, liver, blood vessels, and other tissues, and blood clotting (coagulation), caused by viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and / or fungi in humans and animals.
[0028] One aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a strategy of treating viral, bacterial, protozoan, and fungal infections to alleviate fever and inflammation, prevent immune system overreactions that cause complications, and then allow the immune system to eliminate the viruses, bacteria, protozoans, and fungi in a well-controlled manner, so that all viral, bacterial, protozoan, and fungal infections are very mild and well tolerated.The immune system is able to recognize and kill non-drug-resistant and drug-resistant viruses, bacteria, protozoans, and fungi alike, so that the problem of drug resistance is not an issue at all.
[0029] The prodrugs of the present disclosure are designed to prevent the immune system from overreacting to viral, bacterial, protozoan, and fungal infections, while prodrugs of aspirin, diclofenac, and other anti-inflammatory drugs can kill viruses, bacteria, protozoans, and / or fungi.
[0030] In certain embodiments, the complication is pneumonia. In certain embodiments, the complication is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In certain embodiments, the complication is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In certain embodiments, the complication is blood clotting (clotting). In certain embodiments, the complication is a heart attack. In certain embodiments, the complication is sepsis. In certain embodiments, complications include acute respiratory distress syndrome, pneumonia, and inflammation of the brain, lungs, kidneys, liver, pancreas, gastrointestinal (GI) system, blood vessels, and other tissues.
[0031] II. Structure of highly permeable prodrugs One aspect of the present disclosure provides highly permeable prodrugs (HPPs) that can be used to treat signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoal, and / or fungal infections. As used herein, the term "highly permeable prodrug" or "HPP" refers to a compound comprising a functional unit covalently linked to a transport unit via a linker that is capable of permeating one or more biological barriers for use in treating signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoal, and / or fungal infections, or associated pathologies, comprising the structure L-1:
[0032] JPEG2025504448000003.jpg3992 or a stereoisomer or pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof.
[0033] Functional Unit (F) The functional unit of a HPP comprises a portion of the parent drug such that the HPP can penetrate or cross one or more biological barriers and can be cleaved to release the parent drug itself or a metabolite of the parent drug.
[0034] In certain embodiments, the functional unit may be hydrophilic, lipophilic, or amphiphilic (both hydrophilic and lipophilic). The lipophilic portion of the functional unit may be inherent or may be achieved by converting one or more hydrophilic portions of the functional unit into lipophilic portions. For example, the lipophilic portion of the functional unit is generated by converting one or more hydrophilic groups of the functional unit into lipophilic groups via organic synthesis. Examples of hydrophilic groups include, but are not limited to, carboxylic acid groups, hydroxyl groups, thiol groups, amine groups, phosphate / phosphonate groups, guanidine groups, and carbonyl groups. Lipophilic portions generated via modification of these hydrophilic groups include, but are not limited to, ethers, thioethers, esters, thioesters, carbonates, carbamates, amides, phosphates, and oximes. In certain embodiments, the functional unit is converted into a more lipophilic portion by acetylation or acylation (alkanoylation). In certain embodiments, the functional units are converted to more lipophilic moieties via esterification.
[0035] In certain embodiments, the parent drug of HPP is a drug that can be used alone or in combination with other drug(s) to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome, pneumonia, and other tissue inflammation caused by viruses and / or bacteria and / or fungi in humans and animals. Also, compounds that include the structure of the parent drug, metabolites of the parent drug, or related compounds of the parent drug that are agents that can be metabolized to the parent drug or metabolites of the parent drug after HPP has penetrated one or more biological barriers can be used. Furthermore, related compounds of the parent drug include compounds that are analogs or mimetics of the parent drug, or metabolites of the parent drug, or agents that can be metabolized to analogs or mimetics of the parent drug, or metabolites of the parent drug after HPP has penetrated one or more biological barriers.
[0036] In certain embodiments, the functional unit is a molecular portion of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (i.e., a parent drug molecule) selected from 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) inhibitors, 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, leukotriene receptor antagonists, and anti-inflammatory agents.
[0037] The moieties of the parent drug or its related compounds can be further converted to lipophilic moieties as described above.The major classes of drugs that can be used to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome, pneumonia, other tissue inflammation, and other complications caused by viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and / or fungi in humans and animals include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), leukotriene receptor antagonists, 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, and 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP) inhibitors.
[0038] Transportation unit (T) The transport unit of the HPP comprises a protonatable amine group that can facilitate transport or traversal of the HPP through one or more biological barriers (e.g., more than about 20 times, more than about 50 times, more than about 100 times, more than about 300 times, more than about 500 times, more than about 1000 times faster than the parent drug). In certain embodiments, the protonatable amine group is substantially protonated at physiological pH. In certain embodiments, the amine group can be reversibly protonated. In certain embodiments, the transport unit can be cleaved from the functional unit after the HPP has permeated across one or more biological barriers.
[0039] In certain embodiments, the transport unit is selected from the group consisting of Structure W-1, Structure W-2, Structure W-3, Structure W-4, Structure W-5, and Structure W-6:

[0150] The term "animal" as used herein refers to eukaryotic organisms characterized by voluntary movement. Examples of animals include, but are not limited to, vertebrates (e.g., humans, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, saccharini, and amphioxus), tunicates (e.g., Thalia, Ophiopodia, Sorbella, and Ascidia), articulates (e.g., Insecta, Myriapoda, Malacostraca, Arachnida, Pycnogonida, Brachystomes, Crustacea, and Annelida), geckos (panarthropoda), and worms (e.g., Rotifera).
[0151] In certain embodiments, a method of treating signs, symptoms, and / or complications of viral, bacterial, protozoal, and / or fungal infections and related conditions in a subject comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of HPP or a pharmaceutical composition thereof.
[0152] HPP or a pharmaceutical composition thereof can be administered to a biological subject by any route of administration known in the art, including, but not limited to, oral, enteral, buccal, nasal, topical, rectal, vaginal, aerosol, transmucosal, epidermal, transdermal, dermal, ophthalmic, pulmonary, subcutaneous, and / or parenteral administration. In some embodiments, preferably, HPP or a pharmaceutical composition thereof is administered to a subject transdermally or topically. The pharmaceutical composition can be administered in a variety of unit dosage forms depending on the method of administration.
[0153] HPP or a pharmaceutical composition thereof can be administered to a subject in the form of a formulation or preparation suitable for each administration route. The formulation useful in the method of the present invention comprises one or more HPPs, one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable carriers therefor, and optionally other therapeutic ingredients. The formulation is suitably provided in unit dosage form and can be prepared by any method well known in the art of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending on the subject being treated and the particular mode of administration. The amount of HPP that can be combined with a carrier material to produce a pharma- ceutically effective dose will generally be that amount of HPP that produces a therapeutic effect. In general, the amount of HPP will range from about 1 percent to about 99 percent of the HPP by weight, and sometimes preferably from about 1 percent to about 20 percent.
[0154] Methods of preparing these formulations or compositions include the step of bringing into association the HPP with one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable carriers and, optionally, one or more accessory ingredients. In general, the formulations are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into association the HPP with liquid carriers, or finely divided solid carriers, or both, and then, if necessary, shaping the product.
[0155] Formulations suitable for oral administration may be present in the form of capsules, cachets, pills, tablets, lozenges (using flavored bases, usually sucrose and acacia or tragacanth), powders, granules, or as solutions or suspensions in aqueous or non-aqueous liquids, or as oil-in-water or water-in-oil liquid emulsions, or as elixirs or syrups, or pastilles (using inert bases, such as gelatin and glycerin, or sucrose and acacia), and / or mouthwashes, etc., each containing a predetermined amount of HPP as the active ingredient. The compounds may also be administered as a bolus, electuary, or paste.
[0156] In solid dosage forms for oral administration (e.g., capsules, tablets, pills, dragees, powders, granules, etc.), the HPP is mixed with one or more pharma- ceutically 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 silicic acid; (2) binders, such as carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and / or acacia; (3) humectants, such as glycerol; (4) disintegrants, such as glycerol; For example, powdered agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, (5) difficult solvents, such as paraffin, (6) absorption enhancers, such as quaternary ammonium compounds, (7) wetting agents, such as acetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, (8) absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite clay, (9) lubricants, such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, polyethylene glycol solids, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof, and (10) coloring agents. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the pharmaceutical compositions may also contain buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be used as fillers for soft and hard filled gelatin capsules, using excipients such as lactose or milk sugar, and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols, and the like.
[0157] Tablets can be manufactured by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets can be prepared using binders (e.g., gelatin or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose), lubricants, inert diluents, preservatives, disintegrants (e.g., sodium starch glycolate or cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose), surface active agents or dispersing agents. Molded tablets can be manufactured by molding a mixture of powdered HPP and an inert liquid diluent in a suitable device. Tablets, and other solid dosage forms such as dragees, capsules, pills and granules, can be optionally marked or prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the art of pharmaceutical compounding. They can also be formulated to provide a slow or controlled release of the HPP therein, for example, using various percentages of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, other polymer matrices, liposomes, and / or microspheres that provide the desired release profile.
[0158] They can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions that can be dissolved in sterile water or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use. These compositions can optionally contain pacifying agents, and can be of a composition that releases the HPP(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the gastrointestinal tract, optionally in a delayed manner. Examples of implantable compositions that can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. The HPP can also be in microencapsulated form, if appropriate, with one or more of the above-mentioned additives.
[0159] Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharma- ceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs. In addition to HPP, liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water or other solvents, solubilizers, and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, oils (especially cottonseed oil, peanut oil, corn oil, germ oil, olive oil, castor oil, and sesame oil), glycerol, tetrahydrofuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. In addition to inert diluents, oral compositions may also contain adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifiers, and suspending agents, sweeteners, flavoring agents, coloring agents, fragrances, and preservatives.
[0160] Suspensions may contain, in addition to HPP, suspending agents such as ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, powdered agar and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof.
[0161] Preparations for rectal or vaginal administration can be provided as suppositories. Suppositories can be prepared by mixing one or more HPPs with one or more suitable non-irritating additives or carriers, including, for example, cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, suppository wax or salicylates, which are solid at room temperature but liquid at body temperature, and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity to release the active agent. Preparations suitable for vaginal administration also include pessaries, tampons, creams, gels, pastes, foams or sprays, including carriers as known in the art to be suitable.
[0162] Preparations for topical or transdermal or epidermal or cutaneous administration of the HPP compositions include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches, and inhalants. The active ingredient may be mixed under sterile conditions with a pharma- ceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that may be required. Ointments, pastes, creams, and gels may contain, in addition to the HPP composition, additives such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starches, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonite, silicic acid, talc, and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof. Powders and sprays may contain, in addition to the HPP composition, additives such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicate, and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays may further contain conventional propellants such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons such as butane and propane. For topical or transdermal administration, the best formulation is a solution, optionally and preferably an aqueous solution, for example an aqueous solution containing ethanol or isopropanol.
[0163] Alternatively, HPP or a pharmaceutical composition thereof can be administered by aerosol. This can be achieved by preparing an aqueous aerosol, liposomal preparation, or solid particles containing HPP. Non-aqueous (e.g., fluorocarbon propellant) suspensions can be used. Sonic nebulizers can also be used. Aqueous aerosols are made by formulating an aqueous solution or suspension of the agent together with conventional pharma- ceutically acceptable carriers and stabilizers. Carriers and stabilizers vary according to the requirements of the particular compound, but typically include non-ionic surfactants (e.g., Tween®, Pluronic®, or polyethylene glycol), innocuous proteins such as serum albumin, sorbitan esters, oleic acid, lecithin, amino acids such as glycine, buffers, salts, sugars, or sugar alcohols. Aerosols are generally prepared from isotonic solutions.
[0164] Transdermal patches can also be used to deliver HPP compositions to the target site. Such formulations can be made by dissolving or dispersing the agent in a suitable medium. Absorption enhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the peptidomimetic across the skin. The rate of such flux can be controlled by either providing a rate-controlling membrane or dispersing the peptidomimetic in a polymer matrix or gel.
[0165] Ophthalmic formulations, eye ointments, powders, solutions and the like, are also contemplated as being within the scope of the present invention.
[0166] Formulations suitable for parenteral administration include HPP in combination with one or more pharma- ceutically acceptable sterile, isotonic aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions, or emulsions, or sterile powders that can be reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions immediately before use, which may contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, solutes that render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient, or suspending or thickening agents.
[0167] Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers that can be used in formulations suitable for parenteral administration include water, ethanol, polyols (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, etc.) and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants.
[0168] Formulations suitable for parenteral administration may also contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, and dispersing agents. Prevention of microbial action can be ensured by including various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents in the composition, such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like. Furthermore, prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form can be brought about by including agents that delay absorption, such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
[0169] Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of HPP or in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending on the ratio of HPP to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer used, the rate of drug release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping HPP in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.
[0170] In certain embodiments, HPP or its pharmaceutical composition is delivered to the site of action in a therapeutically effective dose. As is known in the field of pharmacology, the exact amount of the pharmacologic effective dose of HPP that will produce the most effective results in terms of efficacy of treatment in a given patient will depend, for example, on the activity, specific properties, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and bioavailability of the specific HPP, the physiological condition of the subject (including race, age, sex, weight, diet, type and stage of disease, general physical condition, responsiveness to a given dosage and type of drug), the properties of the pharmacologic acceptable carrier in the formulation, the route and frequency of administration used, and the severity or disposition of the pathology being treated. However, the above guidelines can be used as a basis for fine-tuning the treatment, for example, to determine the optimal dosage of administration, which merely requires routine experimentation consisting of monitoring the subject and adjusting the dosage (Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy (ed. Gennaro, 20th edition, Williams & Wilkins PA, USA) (2000)).

[0183] V. Advantages Aspirin, other NSAIDs, and other anti-inflammatory drugs can cause nausea, dyspepsia, heartburn, vomiting, gastroduodenal bleeding, gastric ulcers, and gastritis. Gastroduodenal bleeding caused by NSAIDs is generally painless but can cause fecal blood loss and can lead to persistent iron deficiency anemia.
[0184] By transdermal administration, highly permeable prodrugs of aspirin, other NSAIDs, and other anti-inflammatory drugs, or compositions thereof, can deliver relatively high tissue concentrations of the drug (maximizing efficacy) while maintaining low plasma concentrations of the drug (minimizing side effects), thereby improving efficacy and reducing adverse effects compared to orally administered NSAIDs and other anti-inflammatory drugs.
[0185] Current NSAIDs and other anti-inflammatory drugs are unable to sufficiently penetrate scar tissue (fibroids) in inflamed lungs, liver, heart, respiratory system, kidneys, stomach, intestines, uterus, and other tissues to reduce inflammation in these organs and tissues. In contrast, the highly permeable prodrugs of aspirin, other NSAIDs, and other anti-inflammatory drugs disclosed herein can penetrate any biological barrier and reduce or stop inflammation in any organ or tissue.
