The invention provides anelastase inhibitor for use in the promotion of muscle regeneration in the treatment of a myopathy, as well as a method for promoting muscle regeneration in a subject with a myopathy, the method comprising providing the subject with a therapeutically effective amount of an elastase inhibitor. Further provided is a pharmaceutical composition comprising anelastase inhibitor for use in the promotion of muscle regeneration in the treatment of a myopathy. Elastase inhibitors may have a protective effect on muscle progenitor cells and their regenerative potential, which aids muscle cell regeneration. By protecting regenerative potential of muscle progenitor cells, elastase inhibitors enable or enhance the gown of new or existing muscle fibres.

The invention relates to highly stable alcohol-free, water-glycerol solutions of T4 thyroid hormone, with a reduced amount of T3 impurity, packaged via specific container arrangements. The containers are multi-barrier ones, in which a number of layers of specific materials separate the solution from contact with the external environment.

A stable pharmaceutical formulation or suspension has a pharmaceutical active agent, agave, and a dilutant. The formulation or suspension has viscosity suitable for drinking.

Described is an antagonist of a mammalian P2X7R for use in the treatment of a hyperinflammatory syndrome in a mammalian patient, by primary lymph node targeted administration of the said P2X7R antagonist in the said patient to a concentration in the said targeted lymph nodes that is above the maximal tolerable plasma level of the said antagonist in the said mammal.

A method for treating an individual suffering from bladder cancer employs a CRISPR system to selectively kill or reduce the numbers of pathogenic bacteria within the individual and the individual is then administered an immune checkpoint inhibitor. In particular embodiments, the pathogenic bacteria is one of E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella bacteria, and the checkpoint inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of nivolumab, pembrolizumab, dostarlimab, pidilizumab, AMP-224, AMP-514, STI-A1110, TSR-042, RG-7446, BMS-936559, MEDI-4736, MSB-0020718C, AUR-012 and STI-A1010. Further embodiments include enhancing the growth of a second bacteria in the individual, such bacteria including Akkermansia, Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium, Clostridium, Enterococcus, Fusobacterium, Coprococcus, Lactobacillus, Propionibacterium, Ruminococcus, Veillonella, Prevotella, Escherichia and Streptococcus. The CRISPR system may include Cas9, Cpf1 and Cas3, and may be delivered using a bacteriophage.
