Practical management: a keypad-based interactive session.

Abstract

If controlled therapeutic, epidemiologic, and pathologic data are to be put rationally into clinical practice, they need to be evaluated against real clinical scenarios. This was done by presenting the symposium delegates with a clinical case and then asking management questions, which were answered using a keypad system.

Release of 5-amino salicylic acid from acrylic type polymeric prodrugs designed for colon-specific drug delivery.

New acrylic type polymeric systems having degradable ester or amide bonds linked to the bioactive agent 5-amino salicylic acid (5-ASA), were prepared and evaluated as materials for colon-specific drug delivery. Methacryloyloxyethyl 5-amino salicylate (MOES), and N-methacryloylaminoethyl 5-amino salicylamide (MAES) were prepared as the polymerizable derivatives of 5-ASA using activated ester methodology. The drug-containing monomers were free radically copolymerized with methacrylic acid or hydroxyethyl methacrylate, utilizing azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator. The polymer bearing 5-ASA units as side substituents of the acrylic backbone were obtained in the form of poly pendent esters or poly pendent amides. The drug release studies were performed by hydrolysis in buffered solutions (pH 1, 7.2, 8.5), or simulated intestinal fluid containing pancreatin to measure the chemical degradation expected to occur in the intestinal tract. The release profiles indicated that the hydrolytic behavior of polymers strongly depends on their degree of swelling, type of comonomer, and the nature of hydrolyzable bond. Implication of the results for use of these polymers for colon targeting are discussed.

Protein binding of some nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs studied by high-performance liquid affinity chromatography.

The protein binding of indomethacin, sulindak and diclofenac sodium is studied in the presence of some competitors: phenylbutazon and diazepam. A high-performance liquid affinity chromatography based on chiral stationary phases with immobilized human serum albumin is used. The competition of the markers and the drugs for two major high- and low-affinity binding sites is investigated. Using a mathematical procedure proposed by the same authors in a previous work the affinity constants of the binding drugs and markers for both types of site are calculated. An analogous behaviour is established for the three drugs-they have nearly the same affinity for the primary binding sites marked by phenylbutazon and diazepam and only one type of low-affinity site (diazepam-binding sites) is involved in binding. That can be explained assuming an overlapping sites.

Prevention of alphaII(b)beta3 activation by non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs.

We have studied the effect of non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on alphaII(b)beta3 integrin activation and platelet aggregation. NSAIDs such as meloxicam, piroxicam, indomethacin and aspirin, but not aceclofenac or diclofenac interfered with the activation state of alphaII(b)beta3. NSAIDs that inhibited alphaII(b)beta3 activation were also able both to partially inhibit platelet primary aggregation and to accelerate platelet deaggregation. These effects of NSAIDs were not dependent on cyclooxygenase inhibition. The results obtained indicate that some NSAIDs exert a specific action on alphaII(b)beta3 activation, and provide an additional mechanism that accounts for their beneficial effects in diseases in which platelet activation is involved.
