, (2008/06/13)
Cachexia, including anorexia and other forms of weight loss, is a frequent complication of acute and chronic infections, and result from induction of cytokines, prostaglandins, and other inflammatory mediators that are critical for pathogen elimination. The present invention includes methods for the treatment or prevention of cachexic conditions while maintaining the production of factors essential for infection control through the administration of an effective amount of a cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibiting compound.

Substituted heterocyclic analogs in the Flosulide class were investigated as potential selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors. 6-(4-Ethyl- 2-thiazolylthio)-5-methanesulfonamido-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one 14 was found to be the optimal compound in the series wi
