Cyclo-oxygenase-2 selective inhibitors are frequently used to manage osteoarthritis. We compared the analgesic efficacy of the novel cyclo-oxygenase-2 selective inhibitor lumiracoxib (Prexige) versus placebo and celecoxib in patients with knee osteoarthritis. This seven day, double-blind, placebo and active comparator controlled, parallel group study included 364 patients aged > or = 50 years with moderate-to-severe symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. Patients received lumiracoxib 400 mg/day (four times the recommended chronic dose in osteoarthritis; n = 144), placebo (n = 75), or celecoxib 200 mg twice daily (n = 145). The primary variable was actual pain intensity difference (100 mm visual-analogue scale) between baseline and the mean of three hour and five hour assessments after the first dose. Actual pain intensity difference, average and worst pain, pain relief and functional status (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index [WOMAC]) were measured over seven days. Patients also completed a global evaluation of treatment effect at study end or premature discontinuation. For the primary variable, the superiority of lumiracoxib versus placebo, the noninferiority of lumiracoxib versus celecoxib, and the superiority of lumiracoxib versus celecoxib were assessed by closed test procedure adjusting for multiplicity, thereby maintaining the overall 5% significance level. In addition, celecoxib was assessed versus placebo in a predefined exploratory manner to assess trial sensitivity. Lumiracoxib provided better analgesia than placebo 3-5 hours after the first dose (P = 0.004) through to study end. The estimated difference between lumiracoxib and celecoxib 3-5 hours after the first dose was not significant (P = 0.185). Celecoxib was not significantly different from placebo in this analysis (P = 0.069). At study end 13.9% of lumiracoxib-treated patients reported complete pain relief versus 5.5% and 5.3% of celecoxib and placebo recipients, respectively. WOMAC total and subscales improved for both active treatments versus placebo except for difficulty in performing daily activities, for which celecoxib just failed to achieve significance (P = 0.056). In the patient's global evaluation of treatment effect, 58.1% of patients receiving lumiracoxib rated treatment as 'excellent' or 'good', versus 48.6% of celecoxib and 25.3% of placebo patients. Lumiracoxib was well tolerated. The overall incidence of adverse events was similar across treatment groups. 相似文献

The hepatitis A virus (HAV) capsid protein VP1, VP2 and VP3 are exposed at the virion surface and should therefore contain antigenic determinants. Algorithms for hydrophilicity, antigenicity and flexibility were used to predict probable antigenic sites. Synthesis of 7- to 23-membered overlapping peptides from seven sites, viz., 1-11, 1-17, 2-33, 11-25, 73-82, 76-86, 98-109, 98-112, 102-107, 102-108, 108-127, 113-123, 118-140, 276-298 from VP1, 42-62 from VP2, 76-85 from VP3, and 1-23 from VP4, was performed by various solid-phase methods. Free peptides and their conjugates with different carriers were used for immunization and study of antigenicity. The peptides did not interact with antibodies to the hepatitis A virus, whereas their conjugates did not induce the formation of anti-HAV-antibodies. 相似文献

An essential part of structurefunctional studies of proteinsis the search for sites responsible for specific functionalactivity. The information theory can be of much help in sucha search. According to this theory, rarely occurring oligomerscontain more information and thus are more likely to take partin forming the active site. We used frequencies of ocurrencesof amino acids (mean and for each polypeptide) to search forclusters of highly informative amino acids by the moving windowsmoothing method. In 16 out of 19 peptide hormones such sequenceswere active sites known from literature.

Several peptides from Lassa virus glyco- and nucleoproteins were predicted as probable T-cell epitopes. Their synthesis was performed by solid phase method. The study of possible protective effect in vivo with Lassa-sensitive CBA mice revealed protective epitope within the 277-303 nucleoprotein region. Further studies reduced the protective epitope structure to the 287-300 nucleoprotein fragment. 相似文献
