About NICOSAN(TM)
NICOSAN(TM) is an anti-sickling drug originally developed as NIPRISAN by the Nigerian scientists at the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD). In clinical studies conducted under NIPRD's auspices, the drug has shown to substantially reduce the degree of sickling of the red blood cells of those afflicted with the disease. While not a cure, the clinical trials have confirmed that the large majority of patients taking NICOSAN(TM) no longer experience sickle cell "crises" while on the medication, and even among those whose crises are not eliminated, the number and severity of the crises are substantially reduced. Through quality control/quality assurance (QC/QA) Xechem has standardized and verified the antisickling activity of the product, which is now called as NICOSAN(TM).

[redigieren], Entwicklung Geschichte
Sie wurde am nigerischen nationalen Institut für pharmazeutische Forschung und Entwicklung (NIPRD) (USpatent # 5.800.819 - 1. September 1998) entwickelt. NIPRD hat bereits Phase I, Phase IIa und IIb klinische Versuche geleitet und z.Z. Phase III klinische Versuche in Nigeria leitet.
Im August 2002 Xechem international (XKEM/OTC: BB), eine New-Jersey Firma, erwarb die exklusiven weltweiten Rechte zu Niprisan (neueres umbenanntes Nicosan/Hemoxin). Am 6. Juli 2006 wurde die Droge offiziell in Nigeria, mit dem Präsidenten von Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, persönlich anwesend ausgestoßen.
Die Droge hat mit begrenzter Produktion angefangen, obgleich es erwartet wird, daß Produktion zur Treffennachfrage erweitert.
Internationales Xechem ist z.Z. bei dem Vorbereiten einer neuen Untersuchungsanwendung der Droge-(IND) für Nicosan/Hemoxin für Unterordnung zur Vereinigte Staaten Nahrungsmittel-und Droge-Leitung (FDA) und zu den anwendbaren EU-Agenturen. Nicosan/Hemoxin hat orphan Drogestatus in den USA und im Europa empfangen.
[redigieren], Entdeckungen erforschen
Ein Phase IIb Versuch von Nicosan wurde an einem Armeunterseite Krankenhaus in Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria zwischen 1996 und 1997 geleitet. Xechem berichtet über dem „73% der 30 Patienten, die an der Studie erfuhren keine Krise während der 12 Monat Probeperiode teilnahmen und das restliche 27% die weniger häufigen und weniger strengen Krisen erfuhr. “ [1]
Hauptresultate
Reports von zwei Versuchen wurden gefunden, von denen nur eins, einschließlich 82 Teilnehmer, für Einbeziehung in diesem Bericht geeignet war. Dieser Phase IIB (Angel) Versuch schlägt vor, daß ein phytomedicine, Nicosan®, wirkungsvoll war, wenn es die Episoden der SCD Krise verbunden mit den strengen Schmerz über einen Sechsmonatszeitraum verringerte. Nicosan® schien nicht, die Gefahr der strengen Komplikationen oder das Niveau der Anämie zu beeinflussen. Keine ernsten schädlichen Wirkungen wurden berichtet.
Zusammenfassungen der Autoren
Während Nicosan®, wie phytomedicine, schien, sicher und wirkungsvoll zu sein, wenn er die Krisen verringerte, die mit den strengen Schmerz über einen Sechsmonatsanschlußzeitraum dieses Versuches verbunden sind, werden weitere Versuche angefordert, um seine Rolle im Management der Leute mit Sichelzelle Krankheit festzusetzen. Die Resultate Phase III, multicentre Versuche werden erwartet. http://www.cochrane.org/reviews/en/ab004448.html
Das hergestellte Droge hydroxyurea dient in SCD als ein antisickling Mittel, gleichwohl nicht alle Patienten auf diese Droge reagieren und einige schädliche Wirkungen erfahren, einschließlich Myelosuppression. Nicosan mit vielleicht weniger schädlichen Wirkungen scheint auch, durch „einen starken antisickling Effekt“ zu arbeiten. [2]
