METHOD FOR TREATING HEART FAILURE WITH STRESSCOPIN-LIKE PEPTIDES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/057027
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel methods of treating heart failure comprising administering an amount of stresscopin-like peptide to a subject in need thereof; and substantially maintaining the amount of said peptide present in the plasma of said subject at a concentration resulting in a therapeutic benefit without a substantial increase in the heart rate of said subject. The method involves the use of stresscopin-like peptides that are selective corticotrophin releasing hormone receptor type 2 (CRHR2) agonists.
