Abstract:
A process for obtaining {{6-[(diethylamino)methyl]naphthalen-2-yl}methyl [4-(hydroxycarbamoyl)phenyl]carbamate and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof having high purity is described. This process allows to obtain a product having an amount of any single unknown impurity equal to or less than 0.10%, as well as a product having a purity greater than 99.5%, preferably equal to or greater than 99.6%. An HPLC method for determining the purity of the product and possible impurities thereof is also described.
Abstract:
The use of substances capable of inhibiting one or more enzymes of the histone deacetylase family (histone deacetylase inhibitors) for the therapeutic treatment of Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative syndromes (polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia or idiopathic myelofibrosis) is described. The dosage of the above-mentioned substances is significantly lower than that normally used for the care of other tumour syndromes and may be from 10 to 150 mg/day/patient.
Abstract:
Method of treating Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative syndromes in a patient suffering therefrom by administering to the patient diethyl-[6-(4-hydroxycarbamoyl-phenylcarbamoyloxymethyl)-naphthalen-2-yl-methyl]-ammonium chloride, or other pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or solvates, in a daily dosage amount of from 50 to 100 mg per patient.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of the compound of formula (I) or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or solvates thereof in the treatment of SSTR3 expressing tumors, selected from non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) or other neuroendocrine-related malignancies, selected from pancreatic tumors, pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, lung carcinoids or breast cancer. More specifically, the present invention provides to the use of pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compound of formula (I) or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or solvates thereof and at least one physiologically acceptable excipient in the treatment of a patient affected by SSTR3 expressing tumors, selected from non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) or other neuroendocrine-related malignancies, selected from pancreatic tumors, pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, lung carcinoids or breast cancer.
Abstract:
Physically and chemically stable oral liquid formulations of Givinostat (Diethyl-[6-(4-hydroxycarbamoyl-phenylcarbamoyloxymethyl)-naphthalen-2-yl-methyl]-ammonium chloride) are disclosed, together with methods for the preparation thereof. Such oral formulations are in the form of aqueous suspensions and contain Givinostat and/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or derivatives thereof, at least a wetting agent and/or at least a density-imparting agent. Such formulations are suitable for oral administration for systemic therapeutic action.
Abstract:
Method of treating Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative syndromes in a patient suffering from such syndromes. The method is carried out by administering to the patient diethyl-[6-(4-hydroxycarbamoyl-phenylcarbamoyloxymethyl)-naphthalen-2-yl -methyl]-ammonium chloride, or other pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or solvates, in a daily dosage amount of from 10 to 150 mg per patient.
Abstract:
The present invention relates a method based on mRNA biomarkers that can be used to define the efficacious dose and/or the biological activity of inhibitors of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), such as the compound N-hydroxy-4-((5-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)methyl) benzamide, during the clinical treatment of patients affected by cancer. More in particular, the invention refers to the analysis of the gene expression's variation of specific biomarkers in human monocytes, as “gene expression signatures”, in a method to evaluate the clinical efficacy of HDAC6 inhibitors, such as the compound N-hydroxy-4-((5-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)methyl)benzamide.
