Cipaglucosidase alfa plus miglustat (cipa + mig) is a novel, two-component therapy for Pompe disease. We report data from the Phase I/II ATB200-02 study for up to 48 months of treatment. Four adult cohorts, including one non-ambulatory ERT-experienced (n = 6) and three ambulatory cohorts, (two enzyme replacement therapy [ERT]-experienced cohorts [2...
BACKGROUNDFXLEARN, the first-ever large multisite trial of effects of disease-targeted pharmacotherapy on learning, was designed to explore a paradigm for measuring effects of mechanism-targeted treatment in fragile X syndrome (FXS). In FXLEARN, the effects of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5 (mGluR5) negative allosteric modulator (NAM) AFQ05...
Dengue is a global public health threat, with about half of the world's population at risk of contracting this mosquito-borne viral disease. Climate change, urbanization, and global travel accelerate the spread of dengue virus (DENV) to new areas, including southern parts of Europe and the US. Currently, no dengue-specific small-molecule antiviral ...
OBJECTIVE: To assess adverse events (AEs) in relation to baseline body mass index (BMI) and the risk of malnutrition in patients with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD) treated with nintedanib. METHODS: Among patients with SSc-ILD randomized to receive nintedanib or placebo in the SENSCIS trial, we assessed AEs in sub...
RATIONALE: Cognitive flexibility, the ability to adapt behaviour in response to a changing environment, is disrupted in several neuropsychiatric disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder and major depressive disorder. Evidence suggests that flexibility, which can be operationalised using reversal learning tasks, is modulated by serotonergi...

We disclose herein our detailed investigation into the Barton copper-promoted C3-arylation of indoles using triarylbismuth bis(trifluoroacetates). The arylation of unsubstituted 1H-indole using Barton's conditions gave a low yield of the C3-arylated indole, along with small amounts of the product of double C2/C3-arylation and traces of the product ...

Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutation mechanisms are among the most common genetic abnormalities detected in about 30% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. These mutations are accompanied by poor clinical response, although all these progressions in identifying and interpreting biological AML bio-targets. Several small structured FLT3 inh...
C-N bonds are ubiquitous in natural products and pharmaceuticals. Chemists engaged in the preparation of pharmaceuticals spend a large share of their time forging C-N bonds in their quest for new therapeutics. Methods which allow accessing new nitrogen-containing building blocks more efficiently therefore attract major attention from synthetic chem...
peer reviewed / [en] BACKGROUND: In a phase 2 study, rucaparib, an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), showed a high level of activity in patients who had metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer associated with a deleterious BRCA alteration. Data are needed to confirm and expand on the findings of the phase 2 study. METHODS: I...
BackgroundPathogenic gain of function variants in Valosin-containing protein (VCP) cause a unique disease characterized by inclusion body myopathy with early-onset Paget disease of bone and frontotemporal dementia (also known as Multisystem proteinopathy (MSP)). Previous studies in drosophila models of VCP disease indicate treatment with VCP inhibi...
