Parallel synthesis of a biased library of thiazolidinones as novel sodium channel antagonists.

Abstract: A biased chemical library containing 91 differentially substituted thiazolidinones was prepared in an effort to improve the pharmacology of a known anticonvulsant agent V102862. The collection was prepared in a single step multi-component condensation reaction that produced good yields and very high crude purity (75%-85%). Seven compounds, identified within the library were shown to be more potent than V102862, our parent reference compound, in an electrophysiological assay measuring sodium channel antagonism. The most potent compound, 3-(2-piperidinylethyl)-2-(3-(3-trifluoromethylphenoxy)phenyl)thiazolidinone, has a Ki of 90 nM.

Tamper resistant dosage form comprising co-extruded, sequestered adverse agent particles and process of making same

Abstract: The present invention relates to co-extruded pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms comprising an adverse agent, such as an opioid antagonist, which can be sequestered. The pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms diversion of a dosage form containing an active pharmaceutical agent, such as an opioid. The present invention also relates to methods of treating a patient with such a dosage form, as well as kits containing such a dosage form with instructions for using the dosage form to treat a patient. The present invention further relates to a process for the preparation of such pharmaceutical compositions and dosage forms comprising co-extrusion of a core comprising an adverse agent and a sheath.
