Retrieval systems and related methods
Drug delivery articles, resident articles, and retrieval systems e.g., for gram-level dosing, are generally provided. In some embodiments, the articles are configured for transesophageal administration, transesophageal retrieval, and/or gastric retention to/in a subject. In certain embodiments, the article includes dimensions configured for transesophageal administration with a gastric resident system. In some cases, the article may be configured to control drug release e.g., with zero-order drug kinetics with no potential for burst release for weeks to months. In some embodiments, the articles described herein comprise biocompatible materials and/or are safe for gastric retention. In certain embodiments, the article includes dimensions configured for transesophageal retrieval. In some cases, the articles described herein may comprise relatively large doses of drug (e.g., greater than or equal to 1 gram).
Autoimmune disorder treatment using RXR agonists
The present specification provides RXR agonist compounds, compositions comprising such RXR agonists, and methods using such compounds and compositions to treat an autoimmune disorder, inflammation associated with an autoimmune disorder and/or a transplant rejection as well as use of such RXR agonists to manufacture a medicament and use of such compounds and compositions to treat an autoimmune disorder, inflammation associated with an autoimmune disorder and/or a transplant rejection.
Methods for treating cardiovascular diseases
The present invention is directed to a method for treating cardiovascular diseases such as acute myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, heart failure, stroke, thrombosis, carditis (including acute myocarditis, acute pericarditis and complicated pericarditis), cardiac allograft rejection, cardiomyopathy, and peripheral vascular diseases. The method comprises administering to a subject in need thereof dapansutrile, in an effective amount. A preferred route of administration is oral administration.
Methods of treating heart failure with cardiac sarcomere activators
Provided herein are methods of treating a subject with heart failure, comprising administering to the subject an initial dose of a cardiac sarcomere activator (CSA) for an initial time period, and subsequently administering to the subject a dose of the CSA based on the subject's plasma concentration of the CSA at the end of the initial time period.
Constructs comprising fatty acids
The present invention relates to a construct comprising a C13 to C27 fatty acid non-covalently bound to a hydrophobic region of a carrier particle, methods of manufacture, and uses thereof.
Method for reducing zoonotic infectious diseases
The presently disclosed subject matter relates to a composition and method of using the composition for oral delivery of a bioactive agent to a subject. More particularly, the presently disclosed subject matter relates to a composition comprising an effective amount of at least one bioactive agent layered over a substrate and a method of reducing zoonotic infectious disease by administering the composition to a subject. The presently disclosed subject matter further relates to a method of preparing the composition.
Compositions for treating CMT and related disorders
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of the Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and related disorders.
Pharmaceutical formulations that form gel in situ
The present invention provides aqueous formulations containing an anti-infection agent, a biocompatible polysaccharide, an osmotic pressure regulator, a pH regulator, and water, wherein a gel containing the therapeutic agent is formed in situ upon instillation of the formulations onto the skin and a body cavity of a subject. The formulations of this invention are useful for treating infectious diseases of skin or a body cavity (e.g., eye, nose, or vagina) of a subject.
Oxadiazole derivatives as Rho-Kinase Inhibitors
The invention relates to compounds of formula (I) inhibiting Rho Kinase that are oxidazole derivatives, processes for preparing such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and therapeutic use thereof. Particularly the compounds of the invention may be useful in the treatment of many disorders associated with ROCK enzymes mechanisms, such as pulmonary diseases including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). ##STR00001##
