The invention provides compositions featuring chitosan and methods for using such compositions for the local delivery of biologically active agents to an open fracture, complex wound or other site of infection. Advantageously, the degradation and drug elution profiles of the chitosan compositions can be tailored to the needs of particular patients at the point of care (e.g., in a surgical suite, clinic, physician's office, or other clinical setting).

Systems and methods for destroying or inhibiting cancer cells and other rapidly-dividing cells include coupling an alternating polarity (AP) magnetic field generator to a target body area and applying an AP magnetic field having a frequency of 0.5-500 kHz and a field strength of 0.5-5 mT to the target body area to achieve a desired inhibiting effect on cancer cells or other rapidly-dividing cells. Treatments provided by the system may be co-administered with an anti-cancer drug such as a chemotherapy drug, a hormone therapy drug, targeted therapy drugs, immunotherapy drugs, or an angiogenesis inhibitor drug.

Provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of a steroid and a pharmaceutically effective amount of at least one modulator selected from the group consisting of a transient receptor potential (TRP) channel modulator and a proliferatior-activated receptor (PRP) modulator, wherein cannabidiol is not present as the sole modulator, and uses thereof for treating a condition or a symptom thereof, wherein said condition involves inflammation, an immune disease, an autoimmune disease or a combination thereof.
