ATC/DDD Classification WHO Drug Information Vol. 32, No. 4, 2018 ATC/DDD classification The Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system and the Defined Daily Dose (DDD) as a measuring unit are tools for exchanging and comparing data on drug use at international, national or local levels. The ATC/ DDD system has become the gold standard for international drug utilization research. It is maintained by the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology in Oslo, Norway. Visit www.whocc.no/ for more information. ATC/DDD classification (temporary) The following ATC codes and DDDs were agreed at the meeting of the WHO International Working Group for Drug Statistics Methodology in October 2018. Comments or objections to the decisions from the meeting should be forwarded to the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology before 1 February 2019. If no objections are received before this date, the new ATC codes and DDDs will be considered final and included in the January 2020 version of the ATC/DDD Index.

  • The Application of a Characterized Pre-Clinical
    THE APPLICATION OF A CHARACTERIZED PRE-CLINICAL GLIOBLASTOMA ONCOSPHERE MODEL TO IN VITRO AND IN VIVO THERAPEUTIC TESTING by Kelli M. Wilson A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland March, 2014 ABSTRACT Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a lethal brain cancer with a median survival time (MST) of approximately 15 months following treatment. A serious challenge facing the development of new drugs for the treatment of GBM is that preclinical models fail to replicate the human GBM phenotype. Here we report the Johns Hopkins Oncosphere Panel (JHOP), a panel of GBM oncosphere cell lines. These cell lines were validated by their ability to form tumors intracranially with histological features of human GBM and GBM variant tumors. We then completed whole exome sequencing on JHOP and found that they contain genetic alterations in GBM driver genes such as PTEN, TP53 and CDKN2A. Two JHOP cell lines were utilized in a high throughput drug screen of 466 compounds that were selected to represent late stage clinical development and a wide range of mechanisms. Drugs that were inhibitory in both cell lines were EGFR inhibitors, NF-kB inhibitors and apoptosis activators. We also examined drugs that were inhibitory in a single cell line. Effective drugs in the PTEN null and NF1 wild type cell line showed a limited number of drug targets with EGFR inhibitors being the largest group of cytotoxic compounds. However, in the PTEN mutant, NF1 null cell line, VEGFR/PDGFR inhibitors and dual PIK3/mTOR inhibitors were the most common effective compounds.

  • “Amenalief® Tab. 200Mg” in Japan
    News Release July 3, 2017 Maruho Co., Ltd. Maruho receives manufacturing and marketing approval for Anti-Herpes Virus Agent “Amenalief® Tab. 200mg” in Japan Osaka (Japan), July 3, 2017 – Maruho Co., Ltd (“Maruho”, Head Office: Osaka, Japan, President and CEO: Koichi Takagi) announces that today it has received manufacturing and marketing approval from the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW), for anti-herpes virus agent “Amenalief® Tab. 200mg” (INN: amenamevir) (hereinafter referred to as “the product”) for the treatment of herpes zoster (shingles) in Japan. The product is an anti-herpes virus agent with a novel mechanism of action created by Astellas Pharma Inc. (“Astellas”; Head Office: Tokyo, President and CEO: Yoshihiko Hatanaka). The product has been observed to inhibit the proliferation of the varicella-zoster virus (hereinafter VZV) by inhibiting the activity of the helicase-primase complex, which is essential for viral DNA replication. In August 2012, Maruho and Astellas agreed on a license agreement for the development and commercialization of the product in Japan, and Maruho has been progressing its development. Herpes zoster (shingles) is a disease caused by reactivation of the chickenpox VZV in latently-infected nerve ganglia. The main treatment for shingles is anti-herpes virus agents. The product is proven to be effective against VZV when administered once a day after meals. Also, since most of the product is excreted in feces, it is not necessary to adjust the dosage and administration according to creatinine clearance, an indicator of kidney function. Maruho hopes the product will contribute to the expansion of treatment options and improvement in adherence for the treatment of shingles in Japan.

  • LEUSTATIN (Cladribine) Injection Should Be Administered Under the Supervision of a Qualified Physician Experienced in the Use of Antineoplastic Therapy
    LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection For Intravenous Infusion Only WARNING LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection should be administered under the supervision of a qualified physician experienced in the use of antineoplastic therapy. Suppression of bone marrow function should be anticipated. This is usually reversible and appears to be dose dependent. Serious neurological toxicity (including irreversible paraparesis and quadraparesis) has been reported in patients who received LEUSTATIN Injection by continuous infusion at high doses (4 to 9 times the recommended dose for Hairy Cell Leukemia). Neurologic toxicity appears to demonstrate a dose relationship; however, severe neurological toxicity has been reported rarely following treatment with standard cladribine dosing regimens. Acute nephrotoxicity has been observed with high doses of LEUSTATIN (4 to 9 times the recommended dose for Hairy Cell Leukemia), especially when given concomitantly with other nephrotoxic agents/therapies. DESCRIPTION LEUSTATIN (cladribine) Injection (also commonly known as 2-chloro-2΄-deoxy- β -D-adenosine) is a synthetic antineoplastic agent for continuous intravenous infusion. It is a clear, colorless, sterile, preservative-free, isotonic solution. LEUSTATIN Injection is available in single-use vials containing 10 mg (1 mg/mL) of cladribine, a chlorinated purine nucleoside analog. Each milliliter of LEUSTATIN Injection contains 1 mg of the active ingredient and 9 mg (0.15 mEq) of sodium chloride as an inactive ingredient. The solution has a pH range of 5.5 to 8.0. Phosphoric

Present address: Department of Food, Environmental and Nutritional Sciences, University of Milan, y via Mangiagalli 25, I-20133 Milano, Italy. Received: 7 March 2019; Accepted: 8 April 2019; Published: 12 April 2019 Abstract: Despite the impressive progress in nucleoside chemistry to date, the synthesis of nucleoside analogues is still a challenge. Chemoenzymatic synthesis has been proven to overcome most of the constraints of conventional nucleoside chemistry. A purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Aeromonas hydrophila (AhPNP) has been used herein to catalyze the synthesis of Ribavirin, Tecadenoson, and Cladribine, by a “one-pot, one-enzyme” transglycosylation, which is the transfer of the carbohydrate moiety from a nucleoside donor to a heterocyclic base. As the sugar donor, 7-methylguanosine iodide and its 20-deoxy counterpart were synthesized and incubated either with the “purine-like” base or the modified purine of the three selected APIs.

  • Herpes Simplex Virus
    HSV Herpes simplex virus HSV (Herpes simplex virus) can be spread when an infected person is producing and shedding the virus. Herpes simplex can be spread through contact with saliva, such as sharing drinks. Symptoms of herpes simplex virus infection include watery blisters in the skin or mucous membranes of the mouth, lips or genitals. Lesions heal with ascab characteristic of herpetic disease. As neurotropic and neuroinvasive viruses, HSV-1 and -2 persist in the body by becoming latent and hiding from the immune system in the cell bodies of neurons. After the initial or primary infection, some infected people experience sporadic episodes of viral reactivation or outbreaks. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 HSV Inhibitors (Z)-Capsaicin 1-Docosanol (Zucapsaicin; Civamide; cis-Capsaicin) Cat.

  • COMPARISON of the WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & Ephmra/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION
    COMPARISON OF THE WHO ATC CLASSIFICATION & EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide ANATOMICAL CLASSIFICATION: VERSION June 2019 2 Comparison of the WHO ATC Classification and EphMRA / Intellus Worldwide Anatomical Classification The following booklet is designed to improve the understanding of the two classification systems. The development of the two systems had previously taken place separately. EphMRA and WHO are now working together to ensure that there is a convergence of the 2 systems rather than a divergence. In order to better understand the two classification systems, we should pay attention to the way in which substances/products are classified. WHO mainly classifies substances according to the therapeutic or pharmaceutical aspects and in one class only (particular formulations or strengths can be given separate codes, e.g. clonidine in C02A as antihypertensive agent, N02C as anti-migraine product and S01E as ophthalmic product). EphMRA classifies products, mainly according to their indications and use. Therefore, it is possible to find the same compound in several classes, depending on the product, e.g., NAPROXEN tablets can be classified in M1A (antirheumatic), N2B (analgesic) and G2C if indicated for gynaecological conditions only. The purposes of classification are also different: The main purpose of the WHO classification is for international drug utilisation research and for adverse drug reaction monitoring. This classification is recommended by the WHO for use in international drug utilisation research. The EphMRA/Intellus Worldwide classification has a primary objective to satisfy the marketing needs of the pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, a direct comparison is sometimes difficult due to the different nature and purpose of the two systems.

Abstract: Herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2 (HSV-1 and -2) are two of the three human alphaher- pesviruses that cause infections worldwide. Since both viruses can be acquired in the absence of visible signs and symptoms, yet still result in lifelong infection, it is imperative that we provide interventions to keep them at bay, especially in immunocompromised patients. While numerous experimental vaccines are under consideration, current intervention consists solely of antiviral chemotherapeutic agents. This review explores all of the clinically approved drugs used to prevent the worst sequelae of recurrent outbreaks by these viruses.
