20150094447 | Novel Nitric Oxide Synthase Agonist Polymers - The invention relates to polymers comprising NOS agonists and one or more monomers selected from the group consisting of lactide, glycolide and epsiloncaprolactone, wherein the NOS agonist is incorporated as repeating monomer units into the body or backbone of the polymer are disclosed. The NOS agonist may comprise one or more carboxylic acid groups and one or more alkylhydroxy groups. In another embodiment, the NOS agonist may comprise a carboxylic acid group and an alkylhydroxy group that can be joined to form a lactone containing cyclic ring. In another embodiment, the NOS agonist comprises HMG CoA reductase inhibitor or statin. | 04-02-2015 |
20120245677 | BIORESORBABLE NITRIC OXIDE AGONIST PRODRUG SCAFFOLDS FOR VASCULAR STENTS - The present invention relates to a bioresorbable scaffold for a vascular stent comprising a nitric oxide agonist and a polymer comprising a lactide, a glycolide and a lactone. The nitric oxide agonist is a statin or a HMG CoA reductase inhibitor. The nitric oxide agonist may be coated on the polymer, incorporated within the polymer or chemically bonded to the polymer. The invention also relates to a method for treating atherothrombosclerotic occlusive disease of an artery comprising implanting into the artery a stent with a bioresorbable scaffold comprising a nitric oxide agonist and a polymer comprising a lactide, a glycolide and a lactone, wherein the nitric oxide agonist is exuded from or released from the bioresorbable scaffold. | 09-27-2012 |
20110275649 | Combination therapy for the prevention of statin induced diabetes - Novel combinations comprising HMG CoA reductase inhibitors, or statins, with partial fatty acid oxidation inhibitors (pFOXi), and methods for their use, are disclosed. These combinations are useful in preventing or reducing the risk of developing diabetes which results from therapy with a statin. | 11-10-2011 |
