Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention refers to the use of a sigma ligand, preferably a sigma ligand of formula (I), to prevent or treat emesis induced by a chemotherapeutic agent or radioactivity, especially emesis induced by taxanes, vinca alkaloids or platin chemotherapeutic drugs.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for treating a patient afflicted with or at risk of emesis induced by chemotherapy or by radiotherapy comprising administering to the patient a selective sigma-1 receptor ligand in an amount effective to treat the patient, wherein the patient has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy and wherein the selective sigma-1 receptor ligand is 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof. 2. The method of claim 1 , for the simultaneous treatment of chemotherapy or radiotherapy-induced emesis, and pain. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selective sigma-1 receptor ligand is 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine hydrochloride. 4. A method for the treatment of cancer and simultaneous treatment of emesis induced by chemotherapy or radiotherapy in a patient, comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a combination of at least one selective sigma-1 receptor ligand and a least one chemotherapeutic drug simultaneously, separately or sequentially, wherein the selective sigma-1 receptor ligand is 4-{2[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the chemotherapeutic drug is selected from the group consisting of taxanes, vinca alkaloids and drugs derived from platinum. 6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the chemotherapeutic drug is selected from the group consisting of paclitaxel, oxaliplatin and vincristine. 7. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof and paclitaxel. 8. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-Methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof and oxaliplatin. 9. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-Methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof and vincristine. 10. The method of claim 4 , wherein the selective sigma-1 receptor ligand is 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine hydrochloride. 11. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine hydrochloride and paclitaxel. 12. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine hydrochloride and oxaliplatin. 13. The method of claim 4 , comprising administering to the patient 4-{2-[5-methyl-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yloxy]ethyl} morpholine hydrochloride and vincristine.
