Oxazolidinones For the Treatment and/or Prophylaxis of Heart Failure
The present invention relates to the use of selective inhibitors of coagulation factor Xa, in particular of oxazolidinones of the formula (I), for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of heart failure and/or disorders related to heart failure as well as their use for the preparation of pharmaceutical drugs for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of heart failure and/or disorders related to heart failure.
1 . A method for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of heart failure in a human or animal comprising administering to a human or animal in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formula (I)
in which
R 1 is 2-thiophene which is substituted in position 5 by a radical selected from the group consisting of chlorine, bromine, methyl and trifluoromethyl,
R 2 is D-A-:
where:
the radical “A” is phenylene;
where:
the group “A” defined above may optionally be substituted once or twice in the meta position relative to the linkage to the oxazolidinone by a radical selected from the group consisting of fluorine, chlorine, nitro, amino, trifluoromethyl, methyl and cyano,
the radical “D” is a saturated 5- or 6-membered heterocycle which is linked via a nitrogen atom to “A”, which has a carbonyl group directly adjacent to the linking nitrogen atom, and in which a ring carbon member may be replaced by a heteroatom from the series S, N and O;
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or solvate of a salt thereof.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , characterized in that the compound administered is 5-chloro-N-({(5S)-2-oxo-3-[4-(3-oxo-4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-1,3-oxazolidin-5-yl}methyl)-2-thiophenecarboxamide
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate or solvate of a salt thereof.
3 - 9 . (canceled)
10 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is cardiac failure, chronic heart failure, congestive heart failure, congestive cardiac failure, acute heart failure, acute decompensated heart failure, systolic heart failure, diastolic heart failure, right heart failure, left heart failure, heart insufficiency, cardiac insufficiency, chronic cardiac insufficiency, cardiac decompensation, high output heart failure, low output heart failure, cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and/or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
11 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is chronic heart failure.
12 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is congestive heart failure.
13 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is acute heart failure.
14 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is acute decompensated heart failure.
15 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is systolic heart failure.
16 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is diastolic heart failure.
17 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is right heart failure.
18 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is left heart failure.
19 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is cardiac decompensation.
20 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is high output heart failure.
21 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is low output heart failure.
22 . The method according to claim 1 wherein the heart failure is cardiomyopathy.
