Medical Milestones When Is a Discovery Useful? , When a scientist discovers something new, people are inclined to ask: What is this discovery good for? What is its practical value? More often than not, these questions cannot be answered or, at least, not right away. For many discoveries are of no immediate use whatever until -- sometimes due to a lucky accident -- they become important in a@ way which nobody could foresee. This is particularly true in medi- eine. Isoniazid, for instance, today one of the most useful drugs in the treatment of tuberculosis, was first produced in 1912. But only a few years ago, it was found that this chemical could fight one of man's worst plagues. Penicillin, the first of the antibiotics, which opened an entirely new era in medicine, was known for over ten years before any attempt was made to exploit its tremendous germ-killing suiltty Something similar happened in the case of the recently developed oral anti-diabetic drugs, the most effective of which is called Ori- nase. It was in 1942 that a French hysician, Dr. Marcel Janbon, in (eels atients suffering from fephotd dave with a new sulfa drug, observed unusual reactions in some cases. He consulted his colleague, Prof. Auguste Louba- titres, a pathologist, and his re- search established beyond doubt that certain sulfa drugs were capable of lowering the blood su- gar in diabetics. ~~ However, for ten years the scientific world paid little atten- tion to Loubatiéres' work and only in 1952 was the first attempt made to exploit the anti-diabetic effect of sulfa drugs. mbrinnstely for the many diabetics who wou id like to do away with their inconvenient and often painful insulin injec- tions, progress in this field was quite fast from there on. In 1954 @ compound was developed in Ger- many which was closely related to She sulfa drugs but did not ha Prof. Auguste Loubatléres ' their fee power. On the other hand, the same drug -- now called Orinase -- proved in trials on thousands of patients that it would safely and effectively hel the majority of diabetics to contro their disease, with only very minor side effects, Today, only a few years later, Orinase is available in many coun- tries, including Canada, where it is produced by Hoechst Pharma- ceuticals of Montreal. Before be- ing placed on the market, Orinase was tested by 1700 Canadian and U.S. physicians on about 20,000 patients for periods up to 1% years.
