The present invention further provides method of preparing nanocrystals of a hydrophobic therapeutic agent such as fluticasone or triamcinolone, pharmaceutical compositions (e.g., topical or intranasal compositions) thereof and methods for treating and/or preventing the signs and/or symptoms of disorders such as blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction or skin inflammation or a respiratory disease (e.g., asthma).

Described herein protein steroid conjugates that are useful, for example, for the target-specific delivery of glucocorticoids (GCs) to cells.

Provided herein are compounds, compositions, conjugates and methods for the treatment of diseases, and/or conditions such as, but not limited to, proliferative diseases. In certain embodiments, compounds, compositions, and conjugates are provided, which include cyclodextrin-based linker-payloads and protein conjugates thereof, and/or in combination with other agents. By administering these compounds, compositions, and conjugates as described herein to specific target cells, side-effects due to non-specific binding phenomena, for example, to non-target cells are reduced.

The invention relates to a drug conjugate including a drug and a plant steroid. The drug conjugate may target the drug for intestinal cell delivery, and thus may be used to treat diseases, including intestinal diseases, or to affect intestinal metabolism. The invention therefore also relates to treating intestinal diseases and affecting intestinal metabolism with the drug conjugate.

A compound as represented by formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or a pharmaceutical composition thereof, a preparation method therefor, and the use thereof in the treatment of tumors, inflammatory diseases or autoimmune diseases.

The invention a novel, general, and facile strategy for the creation of small molecules with high structural and stereochemical complexity. Aspects of the methods include ring system distortion reactions that are systematically applied to rapidly convert readily available natural products to structurally complex compounds with diverse molecular architectures. Through evaluation of chemical properties including fraction of sp.sup.3 carbons, ClogP, and the number of stereogenic centers, these compounds are shown to be significantly more complex and diverse than those in standard screening collections. This approach is demonstrated with natural products (gibberellic acid, adrenosterone, and quinine) from three different structural classes, and methods are described for the application of this strategy to any suitable natural product.

The present disclosure provides anti-CD19 antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), including compositions and methods of using such ADCs.

Described herein protein steroid conjugates that are useful, for example, for the target-specific delivery of glucocorticoids (GCs) to cells.

Provided herein are compounds and pharmaceutical compositions useful in modulating kinase activity, and related diseases. These compounds are conjugates of glucocorticoids with rho-kinase inhibitors. Also provided herein are methods of treating an eye disease or disorder in a subject. Also provided herein are methods of reducing intraocular pressure in a subject. Also provided herein are methods of modulating kinase activity in a cell. Also provided herein are methods of making the compounds provided herein, and compounds useful for the preparation of the compounds provided herein.

The present invention relates to a new process for the preparation of budesonide 21-phosphate and its disodium salt.
