Liposomal mitigation of drug-induced inhibition of the cardiac IKr channel
First Claim
1. A composition for treating or preventing one or more cardiac channelopathies or conditions resulting from irregularities or alterations in cardiac patterns, or both, in a human or animal subject consisting of:
- one or more pharmacologically active agents provided in an amount that inhibits the activity of an ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG), wherein the one or more pharmacologically active agents are kinase inhibitors selected from crizotinib and nilotinib, wherein the amount of the one or more pharmacologically active agents is sufficient to treat a cancer, wherein the cancer is selected from non-small cell lung cancer or chronic myeloid leukemia;
one or more empty liposomes, wherein the empty liposomes are administered prior to, concomitantly, or after administration of the pharmacologically active agent, wherein the one or more empty liposomes are provided in an amount effective to reduce the cardiac channelopathies or conditions resulting from irregularities or alterations in cardiac patterns, and the empty liposomes consist of at least one liposome selected from at least one of phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, sphingomyelin, cardiolipin, phosphatidic acid, cerebrosides, dicetylphosphate, dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylglycerol, stearylamine, dodecylamine, hexadecyl-amine, acetyl palmitate, glycerol ricinoleate, hexadecyl sterate, isopropyl myristate, amphoteric acrylic polymers, fatty acid, fatty acid amides, diacylglycerol, diacylglycerolsuccinate, DMPC (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), or DMPG (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-[1-glycerol]).

Abstract
Compositions and methods are provided for preventing one or more cardiac channelopathies or conditions resulting from irregularities or alterations in cardiac patterns, or both, in a human or animal subject comprising: one or more pharmacologically active agents that causes at least one of IKr channel inhibition or QT prolongation by inhibiting the activity of an ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG); and one or more liposomes, wherein the liposomes are empty liposomes and administered prior to, concomitantly, or after administration of the pharmacologically active agent.

7. A composition for preventing or treating one or more adverse reactions arising from administration of a therapeutically active agent or a drug in a human that inhibits the activity of an ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) consisting of:
one or more pharmacologically active agents provided in an amount that causes at least one of IKr channel inhibition or QT prolongation and one or more empty liposomes, wherein the one or more pharmacologically active agents are kinase inhibitors selected from crizotinib and nilotinib, wherein the amount of the one or more pharmacologically active agents is sufficient to treat a cancer, wherein the cancer is selected from non-small cell lung cancer or chronic myeloid leukemia; and
one or more empty liposomes are administered prior to, concomitantly, or after administration of the therapeutically active agent or the drug in an amount effective to reduce the adverse reactions arising from administration of the therapeutically active agent or drug, and the one or more empty liposomes consist essentially of one or more lipids selected from phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, sphingomyelin, cardiolipin, phosphatidic acid, cerebrosides, dicetylphosphate, dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylglycerol, stearylamine, dodecylamine, hexadecyl-amine, acetyl palmitate, glycerol ricinoleate, hexadecyl sterate, isopropyl myristate, amphoteric acrylic polymers, fatty acid, fatty acid amides, diacylglycerol, diacylglycerolsuccinate, DMPC (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), or DMPG (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-[1-glycerol]).- View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
