Use of microtubule stabilizing compounds for the treatment of lesions of CNS axons..

Schutzrecht EP1700596A1 (2005)
The present invention provides a use of one or more microtubule stabilizing compounds for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of lesions of CNS axons wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered locally directly into the lesion or immediately adjacent thereto, whereby the one or more compound(s) is/are selected from the group consisting of taxanes, epothilones, laulimalides, sesquiterpene lactones, sarcodictyins, diterpenoids, peloruside A, discodermolide, dicoumarol, ferulenol, NSC12983, taccalonolide A, taccalonolide E, Rhazinilam, nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), GS-164, borneol esters, Synstab A, Tubercidin and FR182877 (WS9885B). Furthermore, the invention provides a method for the treatment of lesions of CNS axons the method comprising the step of administering to a patient in the need thereof a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) one or more microtubule stabilizing compounds selected from the group consisting of taxanes, epothilones, laulimalides, sesquiterpene lactones, sarcodictyins, diterpenoids, peloruside A, discodermolide, dicoumarol, ferulenol, NSC12983, taccalonolide A, taccalonolide E, Rhazinilam, nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), GS-164, borneol esters, Synstab A, Tubercidin and FR182877 (WS9885B) and, optionally, (ii) further comprising suitable formulations of carrier, stabilizers and/or excipients, wherein the pharmaceutical composition is administered locally directly into the lesion or immediately adjacent thereto.
