The present invention relates to use of a compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound or the salt, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of cachexia. The invention also relates to a method for the treatment of cachexia, comprising administering the compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same to a human or an animal. The invention further relates to use of said compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound or the salt, in combination with one or more second active agents. Moreover, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition and a kit comprising the compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for the treatment of said disease.

Ghrelin receptor agonist for treatment of cachexia

Salts of 4-{[4-({[4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl]oxy}methyl)piperidin-1-yl]methyl}tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxylic acid are disclosed. More particularly, salt forms (HCl-salt, HBr-salt, p-toluenesulfonate salt and ethanedisulfonate salt) are disclosed. Furthermore, processes for the preparation of such salt forms, compositions containing such salt forms, and uses of such salt forms are disclosed. A method of treating disease conditions mediated by 5-HT4 receptor activity includes administering an effective amount of such salt forms to an animal, including a human, in need of such treatment.

Benzisoxazole derivative salt

The present invention relates to novel compounds of a formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use in therapy, for example as modulators of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (also referred to as the ghrelin receptor or GHSR-1a receptor) and/or for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disorder mediated by the ghrelin receptor. 

Tetrahydropyrazolopyridine derivatives as ghrelin receptor agonists

The present invention relates to novel compounds of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy, for example as modulators of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (also referred to as the ghrelin receptor or GHSR1a receptor) and/or for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a disorder mediated by the ghrelin receptor. 

Serine derivatives as ghrelin receptor agonists

The present invention relates to novel crystal forms of 2-amino-N-[2-(3a-(R)-benzyl-2-methyl-3-oxo-2,3,3a,4,6,7-hexahydro-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-5-yl)-1-(R)-benzyloxymethyl-2-oxo-ethyl]-isobutyramide L-tartrate. More particularly, the invention relates to polymorph forms, and to processes for the preparation of compositions containing and to uses of such polymorph forms.

Polymorph forms

This invention relates to salts and crystal forms of (S)-6-chloro-7-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-2-trifluoromethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carboxylic acid, Compound A, which is cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor. The present invention provides a salt of compound A, a crystal form thereof, a process for preparing the said salt and a pharmaceutical composition thereof and its use. The salts and/or co-crystals of Compound A of the present invention show good formulation properties such as high aqueous solubility, good intrinsic dissolution, good crystallinity, good thermal stability or low hygroscopicity.

Salts and crystal forms

The present invention relates to novel oxyindole derivatives of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of various disorders which are mediated via the motilin receptor (GPR38).
