Abstract

A mammal undergoing an ablation procedure is treated for symptoms associated with adenosine by administering one or more adenosine receptor antagonists to the mammal prior to or during the procedure.

Claims (11)

1. A method for promoting blocking of an adenosine receptor in a mammalian subject undergoing an energy-based ablation procedure by administering adenosine receptor antagonists selected from 8SPT, MRS1754, MRS1220, MRE3008F20, MRS1523, ATL146e, or combinations thereof to the mammalian subject.

2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein in vivo, the agent binds to one or more adenosine receptors.

3. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the agent is administered in a pharmaceutical composition that includes a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.

4. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the mammalian subject is human.

5. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the adenosine receptor antagonists is one or more A1 adenosine receptor antagonists.

6. A method according to claim 5 , wherein the A1 adenosine receptor antagonists is selected from the group consisting of 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine, 8-(4-[({[(2-aminoethyl)amino]carbonyl)oxy]-phenyl}-1,3-dipropylxanthine, N(6)-Endonorbornan-2-yl-9-methyladenine, ((S)-(−)-8-(3-Oxocyclopentyl)-1,3-dipropyl-7H-purine-2,6-dione), (3-[(4-amino)phenethyl]-8-cyclopentylexanthine, 1,3-dipropyl-8-(dicyclopropylmethyl)xanthine, and combinations thereof.

7. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the adenosine receptor antagonist is one or more A2 adenosine receptor antagonists.

8. A method according to claim 7 , wherein the A2 adenosine receptor antagonists is selected from the group consisting of 1,3-diallyl-8-(3,4,5-trimethoxystyryl)-7-methylxanthine, 8-(3,4,5-trimethoxystyryl)-1,3,7-trimethylxanthine, 7-(2-phenylethyl)-5-amino-2-(2-furyl)-pyrazolo-[4,3-e]-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5- -c]pyrimidine, 4-(2-[7-amino-2-(2-furyl[1,2,4]-triazolo[2,3-a[1,3,5]triazin-5-yl-)phenol-), 8-(3-Chlorostyryl)caffeine, E)-1,3-dipropyl-7-methyl-8-(3,4-dimethoxystyryl)xanthine, enprofylline, 3-isobutyl-8-pyrrolidinoxanthine, [N-(4-cyanophenyl)-2-[4-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-2,6-dioxo-1,3-dipropyl-1H-pur-in-8-yl)-phenoxy]acetamide], and combinations thereof.

9. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the adenosine receptor antagonist is one or more A3 adenosine receptor antagonists.

10. A method according to claim 9 , wherein the agent is selected from the group consisting of 3,6-dichloro-2′-(isopropoxy)4′-methylflavone, 6-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyridines, 6-carboxy-methyl-5,9-dihydro-9-methyl-2-phenyl-[1,2,4]-triazolo[5,1-a][2,-7]naphthyridine, (3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-amino-7-oxo-thiazolo[3,2]pyrimidine), 9-chloro-2-(2-furanyl)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine, (2-(4-bromophenyl)-7,8-dihydro-4-propyl-1H-imidazo[2,1-i]purin-5(4H)-one dihydrochloride), and combinations thereof.

11. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the ablation procedure is radiofrequency of a cancer tumor.
