The present invention is directed to 2H isotope enhanced ambroxol (“isotope enhanced ambroxol”) and its use in the treatment of autophagy infections, especially mycobacterial and other infections, disease states and/or conditions of the lung, such as tuberculosis, especially including drug resistant and multiple drug resistant tuberculosis. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising isotope enhanced ambroxol, alone or in combination with an additional bioactive agent, especially rifamycin antibiotics, including an additional autophagy modulator (an agent which is active to promote or inhibit autophagy) are also disclosed. These compositions are useful against an autophagy mediated disease state and/or condition), especially an autophagy mediated disease state and/or condition which occurs in the lungs.
本发明涉及2H同位素增强型
氨溴索("同位素增强型
氨溴索")及其在治疗自噬感染,特别是分枝杆菌和其他感染、疾病状态和/或肺部状况,如结核病,尤其包括耐药性和多重耐药性结核病中的应用。此外,还公开了包含同位素增强型
氨溴索的药物组合物,该药物组合物可单独使用,也可与其他
生物活性制剂(尤其是
利福霉素抗生素)组合使用,包括其他自噬调节剂(具有促进或抑制自噬活性的制剂)。这些组合物可用于防治自噬介导的疾病状态和/或病症,尤其是发生在肺部的自噬介导的疾病状态和/或病症。
