Summary for Patent: 5,112,865
Title: Pharmaceutical compositions containing a derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid chosen from oligomers of this acid and esters of this acid or of these oligomers with 1,3-butanediol
Abstract:The invention relates to a solution for dialysis containing a derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid chosen from oligomers of this acid and esters of this acid or of these oligomers with 1,3-butanediol.
Inventor(s): Nichels; William (Vilvoorde, BE), d\'Oultremont; Philippe (Blicquy, BE)
Assignee: Solvay & Cie (Societe Anonyme) (Brussels, BE)
Application Number:07/568,546
Patent Claims:1. A dialysis solution consisting essentially of sterile water, formulation additives and an effective osmotic amount of a member selected from the group consisting of a derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid chosen from dimers and/or trimers of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid, an ester of a dimer and/or trimer of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol, and an ester of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol.

2. The dialysis solution according to claim 1, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid is derived from the D(-) isomeric form of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid.

3. The dialysis solution according to claim 1, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of about 0.5 to 200 grams per liter.

4. The dialysis solution according to claim 3, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of about 1 to 100 grams per liter.

5. A glucose-free dialysis solution consisting of sterile water, formulation additives and an effective osmotic amount of a member selected from the group consisting of a derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid chosen from dimers and/or trimers of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid, an ester of a dimer and/or trimer of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol, and an ester of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol.

6. The solution according to claim 5, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid is derived from the D(-) isomeric form of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid.

7. The dialysis solution according to claim 5, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of 0.05 to 200 grams per liter.

8. The dialysis solution according to claim 7, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of 1 to 100 grams per liter.

9. An aqueous dialysis solution of physiological pH consisting essentially of sterile water, formulation additives, physiological salts osmotically compatible with blood, and an effective osmotic amount of a member selected from the group consisting of a derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid chosen from dimers and/or trimers of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid, an ester of a dimer and/or trimer of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol, and an ester of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid with 1,3-butanediol.

10. The aqueous dialysis solution according to claim 9, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxbutanoic acid is derived from the D(-) isomeric form of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid.

11. The dialysis solution according to claim 9, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of 0.5 to 200 grams per liter.

12. The dialysis solution according to claim 11, wherein said derivative of 3-hydroxybutanoic acid has a concentration of 1 to 100 grams per liter.
