Patent granted for method of lowering ldl-c using pharmaceutical material
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11926584B2) discloses a method for lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in humans by administering a pharmaceutical material containing a crystalline form of a specific compound (formula V). The crystalline form of the compound is characterized by specific X-ray powder diffraction patterns and melting points, ensuring its purity and effectiveness in reducing LDL-C levels. The pharmaceutical material must contain the compound in high concentrations, exceeding 99.5% by weight, with minimal impurities not exceeding 0.2% by weight.
Furthermore, the method allows for the addition of a second therapeutic agent, ezetimibe, to enhance the cholesterol-lowering effects. The patent emphasizes the importance of the compound's purity and specific characteristics in achieving the desired therapeutic outcomes. By following the outlined method and utilizing the pharmaceutical material containing the crystalline form of the compound, healthcare providers can effectively lower LDL-C levels in patients in need, potentially reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases associated with high cholesterol levels.
