View Patent ↗(2R)-2-Phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate and crystalline form thereof, methods of making the same, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of using the same to treat diseases or disorders such as Parkinson's disease are provided.
1. A method of treating Parkinson's disease in a patient comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate is administered as a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle and a therapeutically effective amount of the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for sustained release oral administration.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises at least one other diastereomer of 2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate wherein the diastereomeric purity of the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate is at least 90%.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises an L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor.
6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor.
7. The method of claim 2 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises an L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor and a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor.
8. A method of treating a disease selected from depression, attention deficit disorder, schizophrenia, manic depression, cognitive impairment disorders, restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movement disorders, tardive dyskinesia, Huntington's disease, Tourette's syndrome, hypertension, addictive disorders, congestive heart failure, and excessive daytime sleepiness in a patient, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate is administered as a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle and a therapeutically effective amount of the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is formulated for sustained release oral administration.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises at least one other diastereomer of 2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate wherein the diastereomeric purity of the (2R)-2-phenylcarbonyloxypropyl (2S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propanoate mesylate is at least 90%.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises an L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor.
13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor.
14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises an L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor and a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor.
