Bicyclic amide derivatives for the treatment of respiratory disorders
View Patent ↗This invention relates to compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods for use in the prevention and treatment of disorders of respiration such as overdose of an alcohol, an opiate, an opioid, a barbiturate, an anesthetic, or a nerve toxin. In a particular aspect, the invention relates to bicyclic amide compounds useful for treatment of such conditions, and methods of using these compounds for such treatment.
1. A method of treating respiratory depression in a patient in need thereof, said method comprising administering to said patient an effective amount of a compound according to formula A:
wherein:
X═O, or (CH 2 ) n
n=0 or 1, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
2. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is a structure according to formula B:
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
3. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is a structure according to formula C:
wherein:
X═O, or CH 2 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
4. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is

5. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an opiate or opioid analgesic.
6. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an anesthetic agent.
7. The method according to claim 6 wherein said anesthetic agent is selected from the group consisting of propofol and barbiturates.
8. The method according to claim 1 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an opiate, an opioid analgesic or an anesthetic agent wherein said anesthetic agent is selected from the group consisting of propofol and barbiturates.
9. The method according to claim 2 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an opiate or opioid analgesic.
10. The method according to claim 2 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an anesthetic agent.
11. The method according to claim 10 wherein said anesthetic agent is selected from the group consisting of propofol and barbiturates.
12. The method according to claim 3 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an opiate or opioid analgesic.
13. The method according to claim 3 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an anesthetic agent.
14. The method according to claim 13 wherein said anesthetic agent is selected from the group consisting of propofol and barbiturates.
15. The method according to claim 4 wherein said compound is administered in combination with an opiate or opioid analgesic.
16. The method according to claim 4 wherein said compound is administered in in combination with an anesthetic agent.
17. The method according to claim 16 wherein said anesthetic agent is selected from the group consisting of propofol and barbiturates.
