| 20080234345 | METHOD FOR REDUCING OR ALLEVIATING INFLAMMATION IN THE DIGESTIVE TRACT - A method is provided for reducing or alleviating inflammation or a pathological process associated therewith or secondary thereto in a subject having an inflammatory disease of the digestive tract. The method comprises administering to the subject an anti-inflammatorily effective amount of an ACE2 inhibitor. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20090186014 | METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF PANCREATITIS - A method for treating acute or chronic pancreatitis in a subject comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an ACE2 inhibitor. | 07-23-2009 |
| 20090192220 | TREATMENT FOR SOLID TUMORS - A method for treating a solid tumor in a subject comprises administering to the subject an ACAT inhibitory compound or a prodrug thereof, for example avasimibe, wherein (a) the solid tumor is at least about 2 mm in diameter and (b) the compound or prodrug thereof is administered in an amount that is therapeutically effective, but ineffective to cause unacceptable toxicity to normoxic tissues. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20100029734 | METHODS FOR BREAST CANCER SCREENING AND TREATMENT - A method for selecting a breast cancer patient for therapy with an agent that reduces production of angiotensin II, for example an ACE inhibitor or renin inhibitor, comprises (a) determining whether the cancer comprises a tumor that is estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and (b) selecting the patient for such therapy only if the cancer is determined to comprise an ER+ tumor. A method for treating breast cancer in a patient further comprises (c) administering to the patient, if so selected, an agent that reduces production of angiotensin II, for example an ACE inhibitor or renin inhibitor. A method for treating a breast tumor in a patient having SERM-resistant ER+ breast cancer comprises administering to the patient an agent that reduces production of angiotensin II, for example an ACE inhibitor or renin inhibitor. A therapeutic combination useful in treatment of a breast tumor comprises an agent that reduces production of angiotensin II, for example an ACE inhibitor or renin inhibitor, and a second agent that comprises (a) an aromatase inhibitor or (b) an estrogen receptor modulator or antagonist. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100035848 | THERAPY FOR DISORDERS OF THE PROXIMAL DIGESTIVE TRACT - A method for managing or treating an inflammatory, erosive, dyspeptic or reflux disorder of the proximal digestive tract of a subject comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an ACE2 inhibitor. A therapeutic combination, useful to treat any disease or condition in which an NSAID is indicated, comprises an NSAID in an anti-inflammatory, analgesic or antipyretic effective amount and a gastroprotective agent that comprises an ACE2 inhibitor in an amount effective to protect mucosal surfaces of the proximal digestive tract from erosion or ulceration induced by the NSAID. | 02-11-2010 |
