  • Cannabinoids are present in the Indian hemp Cannabis Sativa L. and have been used as medicinal agents for centuries (Mechoulam, R.; Feigenbaum, J.J. Prog. Med. Chem. 1987, 24, 159). However, only within the past ten years the research in the cannabinoid area has revealed pivotal information on cannabinoid receptors and their (endogenous) agonists and antagonists. The discovery and the subsequent cloning of two different subtypes of Cannabinoid receptors (CBi and CB 2 ) stimulated the search for novel cannabinoid receptor antagonists (Munro, S.; Thomas, K.L.; Abu-Shaar, M.

  • Lipase inhibiting compounds used in the combinations according to the present invention may be any lipase inhibiting compound suitable for pharmaceutical use, e.g. in particular inhibitors of pancreatic lipases.
  • Lipases are key enzymes in the digestive system which break down tri- and diglycerides, which are too large to be absorbed by the small intestine into fatty acids which can be absorbed. Since lipases are responsible for the hydrolysis of fat, a consequence of their inhibition is a reduction in fat hydrolysis and absorption. Therefore, inhibition of lipases results in a reduction in the absorption of fat.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une nouvelle utilisation médicale des composés antagonistes sélectifs des récepteurs du CB1 combinés à des inhibiteurs de lipase. Lesdits composés sont particulièrement adaptés lorsque combinés aux inhibiteurs de lipase dans la fabrication de médicaments utilisés dans le traitement et/ou la prophylaxie de l'obésité chez les patients adolescents ou juvéniles et/ou dans le traitement et/ou la prophylaxie de l'obésité induite par les médicaments chez des patients juvéniles et adolescents. Les composés antagonistes des récepteurs du CB1 adaptés selon la présente invention sont étudiés de manière plus détaillée dans la description. Les inhibiteurs de lipase préférés sont l'orlistat, les panclicines, ATL-962 et/ou la lipstatine.
