Safety and efficacy of intravenous glyburide on brain swelling after large hemispheric infarction (GAMES-RP): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial

We assessed whether intravenous glyburide (RP-1127; glibenclamide) would safely reduce brain swelling, decrease the need for decompressive craniectomy, and improve clinical outcomes in patients presenting with a large...

[Articles] Safety and efficacy of intravenous glyburide on brain swelling after large hemispheric infarction (GAMES-RP): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial
Intravenous glyburide was well tolerated in patients with large hemispheric stroke at risk for cerebral oedema. There was no difference in the composite primary outcome. Further study is warranted to assess the potential clinical benefit of a reduction in swelling by intravenous glyburide. (Source: Lancet Neurology)

[Comment] Glyburide for cerebral oedema: could an old dog have a new trick?
Swelling of a large brain infarct portends transtentorial herniation and death. Yet, there are few effective prevention and treatment options. Reactive medical treatments, including osmotic drugs (eg, glycerol and mannitol) and corticosteroids, do not improve survival and functional outcome.1 –3 Reactive decompressive craniectomy improves survival and functional outcome in some patients, but increases survival with major disability in others, and appropriate patient selection is difficult.4 (Source: Lancet Neurology)

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Drug Interaction Study of Piragliatin, a Glucokinase Activator, and Glyburide, a Sulfonylurea, in Type 2 Diabetic Patients
Abstract A glucokinase activator and a sulfonylurea might be coprescribed to synergize treatment success for type 2 diabetes (T2D). This clinical pharmacology study was designed to investigate the potential glucose‐lowering effect or pharmacodynamic (PD), pharmacokinetic (PK), and safety/tolerability interactions between piragliatin and glyburide in T2D patients already taking glyburide but not adequately controlled. This was an open‐label, multiple‐dose, 3‐period, single‐sequence crossover design: on days –1, 6, and 12, PD and PK samples were drawn with glyburide alone (period 0), piragliatin + glyburide (peri...

Computer-aided identification of potential TYK2 inhibitors from drug database
Publication date: 15 October 2016 Source:Journal of Molecular Structure, Volume 1122 Author(s): Wei Zhang, Jianzong Li, Zhixin Huang, Haiyang Wang, Hao Luo, Xin Wang, Nan Zhou, Chuanfang Wu, Jinku Bao TYK2 is a member of JAKs family protein tyrosine kinase activated in response to various cytokines. It plays a crucial role in transducing signals downstream of various cytokine receptors, which are involved in proinflammatory responses associated with immunological diseases. Thus, the study of selective TYK2 inhibitors is one of the most popular fields in anti-inflammation drug development. Herein, we a...

Secular trends in antihyperglycaemic medication prescriptions in older adults with diabetes and chronic kidney disease: 2004–2013
ConclusionsIn patients with chronic kidney disease, there were trends towards safer antihyperglycaemic medication prescribing. A considerable number of patients, however, continue to receive medications that should be avoided. (Source: Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
