The dosing of 50 mg of drug-x was determined to be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) after two of four patients treated at the 75-mg dose level experienced dose-limiting toxicities (fatigue, nausea, and vomiting) during Cycle 1. Grades 3 or 4 adverse events observed in patients who received 50 mg of drug-x over multiple cycles included the following:
• Asymptomatic increases in lipase and/or amylase
• Uncomplicated neutropenia (eg, neutropenia without fever or infection)
• Hypertension
• Diarrhea
In addition to the above adverse events, two patients developed bleeding during Cycle 1 within a single tumor lesion that was biopsied. | Translation - Spanish
La dosis máxima tolerada (MTD) de fármaco-x fue estimada en 50 mg después de que dos pacientes tratados con un nivel de dosis de 75 mg experimentaran reacciones de toxicidad por sobredosis (fatiga, náuseas, y vómitos) durante el Ciclo 1. Se observaron reacciones adversas de grados 3 y 4 en pacientes que recibieron una dosis de 50 mg de fármaco-x después de múltiples ciclos, entre las que se encuentran las siguientes:
• Incrementos de lipasa y/o amilasa asintomáticos
• Neutropenia de carácter no-complicado (ej., neutropenia sin fiebre ó infección)
• Hipertensión
• Diarrea
Además de las reacciones adversas descritas, dos pacientes presentaron hemorragias durante el ciclo 1 dentro de una lesión tumoral de la cual se realizó una biopsia. | | English to Spanish: Egypt | Source text - English
Part One: Burial Places
From the dawn of history to the coming of Christianity, the ancient Egyptians seem to have cherised hope of eternal life. Even the most simple of graves from Predynastic period to the end of the Pharaonic era contained grave goods, which appear to have been placed beside the body to provide for the needs of the deceased in the Afterlife.
Death was regarded as a welcome passage from this life to the next. In a Middle Kingdom text, “The Dispute of a Man with his Ba”, death is likened to a sick’s man recovery, going out after confinement, a man’s coming home after a warfare, a man’s longing from home after long years in captivity, or sitting under a sail on a breezy day.
All those who could afford it, therefore, spent much of their adult lives preparing an appropriate burial place. Many Old and Middle Kingdom officials built splendid tombs in the Memphite necropolis near to the pyramids of the kings they served, while the New Kingdom administrators made ready rock-cut tombs on the west bank of the Nile, not far from the royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings.

Parte uno: Lugares de enterramiento
Desde los albores de la historia hasta la llegada del Cristianismo, los antiguos egipcios habían venido alimentando la esperanza de la vida eterna. Incluso desde las más simples tumbas del periodo predinástico hasta las del final de la era faraónica, todas ellas contenían bienes funerarios en los mausoleos, que al parecer fueron depositados junto al cuerpo del difunto para proveerle de las necesidades que fuera a tener después de la vida.
La muerte era entendida como un pasaje de bienvenida desde esta vida a la otra. En uno de los textos perteneciente al Período del Reinado Medio, “La disputa de un hombre con su Ba”, la muerte es vista como una recuperación de un enfermo, saliendo de su confinamiento, la vuelta de un hombre al hogar después de la batalla, el regreso a casa después de largos días en cautividad, o sentado en un barco en un día de brisa.
Todos los que pudieran permitírselo, por tanto, emplearían mucho tiempo de sus vidas adultas en preparar el lugar adecuado para su enterramiento. Muchos oficiales del Antiguo y del Medio Reinos, mandaron construir espléndidas tumbas en la Necrópolis de Menfis cerca de las pirámides de los reyes a los que sirvieron, mientras que los nuevos administradores del reino fabricaban nuevas losas en el Banco Oeste del Nilo, no lejos de las tumbas reales en el Valle de los Reyes.

According to recent guidelines published in XXXX, “more than two thirds of patients with hypertension cannot be controlled on one drug and will require two or more antihypertensive agents from different classes” to achieve control of their blood pressures. European Society of Hypertension–European Society of Cardiology (ESH-ESC) guidelines state that “two or more drugs in combination are necessary in the majority of patients.” When antihypertensive medications of different classes are combined, there is often an additive effect on blood pressure lowering, because these medications act on different pathways. Y, a rational, dual mechanistic drug, blends two of these classes: a calcium channel blocker (CCB), Z, and an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), W.
Z and W are two of the most widely prescribed antihypertensive drugs worldwide. Both are supported by a wealth of data from clinical trials and years of clinical experience. Y has proven BP-lowering efficacy across all grades of hypertension. Additionally, effective blood pressure reduction with Y has been observed across all ages, including the elderly. An improved tolerability profile is also achieved with Y. Particularly, there is less peripheral oedema than that observed with CCB monotherapy (eg, Z).

De acuerdo con las recientes guías publicadas en el XXXX, “más de dos tercios de los pacientes con hipertensión no pueden ser controlados con un solo fármaco y requieren dos o más agentes hipertensivos de diferentes clases” para conseguir controlar su presión sanguínea. Las recomendaciones de La Sociedad Europea de Hipertensión-Sociedad Europea de Cardiología (ESH-ESC) determinan que “se hacen necesarios dos o más fármacos para la mayoría de pacientes con hipertensión” Cuando se combinan dos antihipertensivos de dos clases, existe con frecuencia un efecto de disminución de la presión sanguínea, debido a que cada medicamento actúa por una ruta o vía distinta. Y, un fármaco racionalizado, de mecanismo farmacológico dual, combina dos de dichas clases de compuestos: un bloqueante de los canales de Calcio (CCB), el Z, y un bloqueante para el receptor de Angiotensina II (ARB), el W.
El Z y el W son dos de los fármacos antihipertensivos más ampliamente prescritos a nivel mundial. La reputación de ambos viene precedida por una ingente cantidad de datos obtenidos de estudios clínicos y años de experiencia clínica. Y ha demostrado su eficacia disminuyendo la presión sanguínea (BP ó PS) en todos los rangos de hipertensión. Además, la efectiva reducción de la presión sanguínea con Y se ha podido observar a cualquier edad, incluso en ancianos. Y proporciona, además, un perfil mejorado de tolerabilidad. En concreto, se observa menos edema periférico que en la monoterapia con CCB (p.ej.Z).

S1 is protected by being subjected to an alkylating agent in the presence of base in an alcohol solvent to produce compound S2, wherein “Ar” is defined as an aryl moiety. As used herein, “alkylating agent” means an agent that reacts with S1 resulting in both the nitrogen and hydroxyl of S1 forming a new carbon-nitrogen and carbon-oxygen bond, respectively. Non-limiting examples of an alkylating agent include halomethylenearyl or halomethyleneheteroaryl. An example of an alcohol solvent is methanol. Suitable examples of base include potassium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, potassium tert-butoxide, sodium methoxide, and Triton B.
In turn, S2 is selectively deprotected by a hydrogenating agent to yield S3. As used herein, “hydrogenating agent” means addition of hydrogen atom to another atom residue like carbon. Suitable example of a hydrogenating agent include palladium on carbon or rhodium on carbon, in a methanol solvent and under hydrogen gas.
Lastly, S3 is formylated and aminated by a formylating agent and an aminating agent, respectively. As used herein, “formylating agent” means an agent that transfers a methylene unit “CH2”or “ ”. Non-limiting examples of a formylating agent are paraformaldehyde, formaldehyde, formic acid-formamide, formylimidazole, p-nitrophenyl formate. Alternatively, any aldehyde (R-COH) can be used as formylating agent in this application. The result is that the methylene unit is further branched based upon the aldehyde that is used. These formulating agents are commercially available or made by known methods. As used herein, “aminating agent” means any primary of amine of formula NHR3 or secondary amine of formula NR3R4. These amines are commercially available or made by known methods. For example, many such amines can be identified using ChemOffice WebServer and the ChemACX databases. These amines can be further modified by those methods well-known in the art.
| Translation - Spanish
S1 está protegido de la acción de cualquier agente alquilante en presencia de una base en un disolvente de tipo alcohol para producir el compuesto S2, de donde “Ar” se define como una mitad arilo. En lo referente al presente texto, se entiende por “agente alquilante” todo aquel agente que reacciona con S1 dando como resultado tanto la forma nitrogenada como hidroxilada de S1, formando un nuevo enlace carbono-nitrógeno y carbono-oxígeno, respectivamente. Ejemplos no excluyentes de agentes alquilantes incluyen el halometil-n-arilo o el halometil-n-heteroarilo. Un ejemplo de disolvente de tipo alcohol es el metanol. Ejemplos válidos de bases incluyen hidróxido de potasio, carbonato potásico, tert-butóxido de potasio, metóxido sódico, y Tritón B.
En cambio, S2 se encuentra selectivamente desprotegido frente a un agente deshidrogenante de cara a producir S3. En el presente uso, “agente deshidrogenante” se refiere a la adición de un átomo de hidrógeno a otro residuo atómico como carbono. Un ejemplo válido de agente deshidrogenante incluye el paladio sobre carbono o rodio sobre carbono, en un disolvente metanólico y en presencia de gas hidrógeno.
Finalmente, S3 es formilado y aminado por un agente formilante y por un agente aminante, respectivamente. En este caso, “agente formilante” se refiere a un agente que transfiere una unidad metileno “CH2”ó “ ”. Ejemplos no excluyentes de agentes formilantes son el paraformaldehído, el formaldehído, el ácido fórmico-formamida, el formilimidazol, y el p-nitrofenil formato. Además, cualquier aldehído (R-COH) se puede usar como agente formilante en esta aplicación. El resultado es que la unidad de metileno se ramifica posteriormente y lo hace en base al aldehído que se use. Estos agentes de formulación están disponibles comercialmente o se pueden obtener por métodos bien conocidos. En este contexto, “agente aminante” se refiere a toda aquella amina primaria de fórmula NHR3 ó amina secundaria de fórmula NR3R4. Dichas aminas están disponibles comercialmente o se pueden obtener por métodos bien conocidos. Por ejemplo, muchos de estos tipos de aminas se pueden identificar utilizando las bases de datos ChemOffice WebServer y ChemACX Estas aminas se pueden modificar posteriormente por los métodos mencionados, de sobra conocidos.
