MÉTHODES DE TRAITEMENT DES TROUBLES SENSIBLES À LA CYSTÉAMINE

摘要

The invention features methods for the treatment of cystinosis and other cysteamine sensitive disorders in a subject including administration of a disulfide convertible to cysteamine in vivo. The methods can include the separate administration of a reducing agent to the subject to increase the bioavailablity and extend the plasma pharmacokinetic profile of the cysteamine produced following administration of the disulfide. The methods permit sustained cysteamine plasma concentrations in a subject.
