From page 1 subtype, must show little or no binding affinity to other NNR subtypes, and must be bioavailable and pass the blood brain barrier. If a compound meets these three criteria, it can move into early preclinical development. As a result of its high hit rate, the company has been able to accelerate its entry into the clinic, deBethizy said. "We have filed four INDs in a nine-month period." Targacept's lead internally developed NNR agonists include TC-1734, which is in Phase II testing to treat memory and cognitive disorders. In two dose-ranging Phase I trials in a total of 72 elderly and healthy volunteers, the company saw improvement in attention and memory as measured by the Clinical Dementia Rating CDR ; battery. The company also saw dosedependent increases in surrogate measures of cognition and memory see BioCentury, Nov. 3, 2003 ; . TC-5321, a new formulation of the hypertension drug Inversine mecamylamine, is in Phase IIb testing for ADHD. Targacept in-licensed Inversine, which is not marketed, from Layton Bioscience Inc. Sunnyvale, Calif. ; in 2002. Inversine modulates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and has been studied in children with Tourette's syndrome. Targacept's TC-2403, an NNR agonist that is partnered with Dr. Falk Pharma GmbH Freiburg, Germany ; , is in Phase II testing for ulcerative colitis. TC-2696 is an NNR agonist in Phase I for pain, and two compounds are in preclinical development for Alzheimer's AD ; and depression anxiety. The company has second generation compounds for every indication. Going forward, Targacept hopes to partner certain earlier stage programs, possibly in pain, depression or anxiety, in order to focus on later stage compounds. Targacept has raised about $90 million through two venture rounds. In 2002, R.J. Reynolds owned about 8.5% of the company and nordette.

Appendix 3b: Marking Scheme for Written Oral Assessment Clopidogrel 1. What class of drug is Clopidogrel? Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug. 2. What is the mode of action of Clopidogrel? It decreases platelet aggregation by inhibiting the binding of ADP to platelet receptors. 3. When would you administer Clopidogrel? To patients presenting as an emergency with cardiac chest pain discomfort suggesting Acute Coronary Syndrome i.e. Unstable Angina or NSTEMI or STEMI. Exclusions include active peptic ulcer disease or active bleeding from any source or allergy to Clopidogrel. 4. What is the dose, route, frequency and method of administration - Clopidogrel 300mg orally given in the form of 75mg tablets x 4, given once only. It takes 4-7 days for maximal inhibition at a dose of 75mg thus treatment is initiated with a loading dose of 300mg. The dose administered is documented on the NHS Tayside Prescription and Administration Record or A&E admission document as appropriate and endorse "as per PGD" 5. What are the potential major side-effects? - Haemorrhage bleeding - gastrointestinal or intracranial - Hypersensitivity reactions including urticaria, angiodema, rhinitis, bronchospasm and dyspnoea - Abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting 6. Are there any drug interactions with Clopidogrel? NSAIDs increase the risk of bleeding therefore exclude if currently on regular therapy. The antiplatelet effect of Clopidogrel enhances the anticoagulant effect of Warfarin therefore caution is required and Medical advice should be sought. 7. How would you monitor treatment? Monitor for: - Haemorrhage bleeding - Hypersensitivity reactions - Abdominal pain and ocuflox.

The PCI-Clopidogrel as Adjunctive Reperfusion Therapy CLARITY ; study was a prospectively planned analysis of the 1863 patients undergoing PCI after mandated angiography in CLARITY Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction TIMI ; 28, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of clopidogrel in patients receiving fibrinolytics for STEMI. The study aimed to determine if clopidogrel pretreatment before PCI in patients with recent STsegment elevation myocardial infarction STEMI ; is superior to clopidogrel treatment initiated at the time of PCI in preventing major adverse cardiovascular events. Patients received aspirin and were randomized to receive either clopidogrel 300mg loading dose, then 75mg once daily ; or placebo initiated with fibrinolysis and given until coronary angiography, which was performed 2 to 8 days after initiation of the study drug. For patients undergoing coronary artery stenting, it was recommended that open-label clopidogrel including a loading dose ; be administered after the diagnostic angiogram. The primary outcome was the incidence of the composite of cardiovascular death, recurrent MI, or stroke from PCI to 30 days after randomization. Secondary outcomes included MI or stroke before PCI and the aforementioned composite from randomization to 30 days. Pretreatment with clopidogrel significantly reduced the incidence of cardiovascular death, MI, or stroke following PCI 3.6% vs 6.2%; adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.54 [95% CI, 0.35-0.85]; P .008 ; . Pretreatment with clopidogrel also reduced the incidence of MI or stroke prior to PCI 4.0% vs 6.2%; OR, 0.62 [95% CI, 0.40-0.95]; P .03 ; . Overall, pretreatment with clopidogrel resulted in a highly significant reduction in cardiovascular death, MI, or stroke from randomization through 30 days 7.5% vs 12.0%; adjusted OR, 0.59 [95% CI, 0.43-0.81]; P .001; number needed to treat 23 ; .

Wrin , you have lots of drugs in your list that do the same thing - perhaps you could trim it down by cutting out some of the ones that are similar.

Antiplatelet treatment slightly but significantly decreased rates of death or dependence at 6 months OR 0.94; 95% CI 0.91 to 0.98 ; and also increased the odds of making a complete recovery OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.11 ; . In absolute terms, 13 more patients were alive and independent at the end of follow up for every 1000 patients treated.21 Antiplatelet therapy was associated with a small but definite increase in symptomatic ICH 2 cases per 1000 patients treated ; , but this was more than offset by a reduction of seven recurrent strokes for every 1000 patients treated.21 Hankey and Warlow, 22 in a study of the evidence and costs of acute stroke treatment, suggest that the number needed to treat with ASA to prevent one death or dependence was 83, and the cost was very low. Less is known about other antiplatelet agents and their use for acute ischemia.20 Certainly, in secondary prevention studies, ticlopidine17 and clopidogrel23 have been shown to be as good as, or superior to, ASA, 23, 24 although ticlopidine might have more adverse effects than either ASA or clopidogrel. Dipyridamole has likewise been evaluated alone and in combination with ASA.25, 26 Alone, dipyridamole is similar in efficacy to ASA, but the combination is likely superior.26 The role of these antiplatelet agents in acute treatment has not been established, but they could be used if ASA is contraindicated.18. CYP3A4 gene may be an important contributor to clopidogrel response variability [53] Fig. 4 ; . Suboptimal platelet response to clopidogrel may be due to an increased number of platelet P2Y12 receptors, or polymorphism of platelet receptors. Genetic polymorphisms of platelet GPIIb IIIa, GPIa IIa, or P2Y12 receptors have been reported to affect platelet function and may influence clopidogrel response variability [5456]. Recently, it was reported that an increased percentage of patients with peripheral arterial disease have the P2Y12 receptor H2 haplotype [55]. However, in another study, the relation of this haplotype to clopidogrel responsiveness could not be demonstrated [56]. Since the relation of genetic polymorphisms to clopidogrel responsiveness is inconclusive, further studies are required to establish a correlation between receptor polymorphisms and clopidogrel nonresponsiveness. It has been shown that patients with diabetes exhibit platelet activation and increased reactivity to agonists. The heightened platelet reactivity may be related to the increased prevalence of nonresponders and occurrence of ischemic events reported in patients with diabetes [57, 58]. It has also been reported that patients with a high body mass index BMI ; exhibited a suboptimal platelet response with the standard 300 mg loading dose [59]. All of the above data strongly support the importance phenomenon of insufficient metabolite generation secondary to limitations in the intestinal absorption, drugdrug interaction at CYP 3A4 or genetic polymorphisms of CYP isoenzymes as the. If you've been diagnosed with osteoporosis, it is important to pay close attention to your diet, calcium and vitamin D intake, and exercise. Although these alone may not prevent or reverse the process of thinning bones, they are important in helping maintain overall bone health. Diet and nutrition: It's important to get the right nutrients for your bones. Talk to your doctor or dietician about your diet. Calcium and vitamin D: Vitamin D helps you absorb calcium which, in turn, helps keep your bones strong. A few calcium tips: Avoid eating too many foods with a lot of protein or salt. Large amounts of these foods can make your body lose calcium. If dairy products upset your stomach, try other calcium-rich foods like broccoli or tofu. Look for foods with added calcium, like orange juice, cereal, or bread. Your body needs vitamin D to help absorb calcium. Make sure you're getting 400 to 800 IU international units ; of vitamin D every day. Exercise: Just like muscle, bone responds to exercise by becoming stronger. Lack of exercise, especially as you get older, may contribute to bones getting weaker. Two types of exercise are important for building and maintaining bone mass: Weight-bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, stairclimbing, dancing, or others in which your bones and muscles work against gravity Resistance exercises, such as weight training, which help maintain bones by strengthening the muscles around them The amount and type of activity you do plays a part in keeping bones healthy and strong. You should vary your exercise to include all parts of your body. And, of course, talk to your doctor before starting any diet or exercise program.
