Described are stable topical formulations useful in the treatment of viral wart infection, demodex infection and bacterial infection of the skin, and genitalia and the method of treating viral wart infection, demodex infection and bacterial infection of the skin, and genitalia with said compositions.

The present invention relates to the technical field of medicinal chemistry, and in particular discloses a 2-oxo-1,2-dihydrobenzo[cd]indole compound and use thereof. The compound and pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isomer, racemate, prodrug, co-crystallized complex, hydrate, and solvate thereof can effectively inhibit the BET bromodomain receptor, and can be used for preparing a medicine for treating cancers, cell proliferative disorders, inflammatory diseases, and autoimmune disorders, sepsis, and viral infections.

The invention relates to methods of treating a patient suffering from an IL-33-mediated disorder, such as asthma, comprising administering to the patient an IL-33 axis binding antagonist based on the genotype of the /L1RL1gene, the genotype of a polymorphism in genomic vicinity to the IL-33 gene, the expression level of periostin or the expression level of soluble ST2. The invention further relates to methods of determining whether a patient is at increased risk of an IL-33-mediated disorder, as well as methods of determining whether a patient suffering from such a disorder is likely to respond to a treatment comprising an IL-33 axis binding antagonist, based on the genotype of the /L1RL1gene the genotype of a polymorphism in genomic vicinity to the IL-33 gene, the expression level of periostin or the expression level of soluble ST2.

A first problem is to provide a novel technique for forming hyaluronan into particles. Further, a second problem is to provide a novel technique suitable for production of a composite particle containing an anionic polymer and a peptide. Means for solving the first problem is a composite particle containing an anionic polymer, and a cationic polymer (except for chitosan) having a degree of cationization of 0.2 or more. Means for solving the second problem is to mix an anionic polymer and a peptide in an aqueous solvent having a pH of 5 or less.

Provided herein are micellic assemblies comprising a plurality of copolymers. In certain instauces, micellic assemblies provided herein are pH sensitive particles.

The present invention is directed to a method of treating a fungal infection comprising administering topically, to a subject in need thereof, an anti-fungal effective amount of roflumilast. Preferably, topically administered roflumilast is used to treat fungal infections, fungal growth of and/or hypersensitivity to the fungi Malassezia spp. Patients may also be suffering from seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, dupilumab facial redness, Tinea versicolor, Pityriasis versicolor, Tinea circinata, Tinea pedis, Tinea unguium, Tinea manus, Tinea cruris, Tinea corporis, Tinea faciei, Tinea capitis, and/or Tinea incognito. Topically administered roflumilast is a quick and effective antifungal agent and presents a viable alternative to current antifungal treatments.

Methods of treating a complex wound by administering to a complex wound in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a fetal support tissue product to treat the complex wound. Methods of treating a complex lower extremity ulcer by administering to a complex lower extremity ulcer in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a fetal support tissue product to treat the complex lower extremity ulcer. Methods of reducing or preventing scar formation from granulation tissue by administering a fetal support tissue product to granulation tissue. Methods of repairing a spina bifida defect by administering to the defect in the individual a therapeutically effective amount of an umbilical cord product.

The present invention provides compounds and methods for the treatment of LFA-1 mediated diseases. In particular, LFA-1 antagonists are described herein and these antagonists are used in the treatment of LFA-1 mediated diseases. One aspect of the invention provides for diagnosis of an LFA-1 mediated disease and administration of a LFA-1 antagonist, after the patient is diagnosed with a LFA-1 mediated disease. In some embodiments, the LFA-1 mediated diseases treated are dry eye disorders. Also provided herein are methods for identifying compounds which are LFA-1 antagonists.

The invention provides compositions or pharmaceutical compositions of novel high penetration compositions (HPC) of a parent compound, which are capable of crossing biological barriers with high penetration efficiency. The HPCs are capable of being converted to parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds such as metabolites after crossing one or more biological barriers and thus can render treatments for the conditions that the parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds can. Additionally, the HPCs are capable of reaching areas that their parent drugs or parent drug-related compounds may not be able to access or to render a sufficient concentration at the target areas and therefore render novel treatments. For example, HPCs of NSAIA have demonstrated indications such as treating hair loss and bold. A HPC can be administered to a subject through various administration routes, e.g., locally delivered to an action site of a condition with a high concentration or systematically administered to a biological subject and enter the general circulation with a faster rate.
