The present patent application relates to a transient receptor potential ankyrin-1 (“TRPA1”) antagonist for the treatment of neuropathic pain in a subject. Particularly, the present patent application relates to a method of treating neuropathic pain in a subject in need thereof by orally administering to the subject a thienopyrimidinedione Compound as a TRPA1 antagonist. The present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the TRPA1 antagonist, and a process for preparing such a pharmaceutical composition.

A topical cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor formulation comprising an inhibitor of COX-1 and/or COX-2, one or more long chain monounsaturated fatty acids, long chain monounsaturated fatty alcohols, terpenes, or combinations thereof; and a solvent mixture comprising ethanol, propylene glycol, 2-(2-Ethoxyethoxy)ethanol, and optionally dimethylsulfoxide.

A topical cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor formulation comprising an inhibitor of COX-1 and/or COX-2, one or more long chain monounsaturated fatty acids, long chain monounsaturated fatty alcohols, terpenes, or combinations thereof; and a solvent mixture comprising ethanol, propylene glycol, 2-(2-Ethoxyethoxy)ethanol, and optionally dimethylsulfoxide.

The present application is directed to a method of inhibiting proliferation of chromosome instable cancer cells. This method involves administering, to a population of cancer cells comprising chromosome instable cancer cells, an inhibitor of Kinesin Family Member 18A (KIF18A) at a dosage effective to inhibit proliferation of said chromosome instable cancer cells. The inhibitors of KIF18A may also be used in a method treating cancer in a subject. This method involves selecting a subject having cancer, where the cancer is characterized by chromosomal instability, and administering to the subject an inhibitor of KIF18A at a dosage effective to treat the cancer in the subject. Also disclosed is a combination therapeutic including an inhibitor of Kinesin Family Member 18A (KIF18A) and agent that promotes microtubule turnover or a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor.

Provided are therapeutic combinations or formulations of drugs comprising triple monoamine reuptake inhibitors, melanin concentrating hormone receptor 1 (MCHRT) antagonists and diazoxide or its formulations and various combinations thereof, these in combination with other drugs or active agents. Provided are methods for the treatment of various conditions, including genetic confirmed syndromes, and diseases, using therapeutic combinations and formulations of drugs as provided herein. Provided are methods for administering triple monoamine reuptake inhibitors (TRIs), melanin concentrating hormone receptor 1 (MCHRT) antagonists and diazoxide or diazoxide or its formulations, whose dosages are determined using a method as provided herein including empirical methods for safe and predictable titration and to determine the initial therapeutic dose; model-based methods for safe and predictable titration and to determine the initial therapeutic dose and to determine the lowest therapeutic dose or to determine an optimal effective dose, including use of Bayesian pharmacometric models.

Compositions and methods, including novel homogeneous microparticulate suspensions, are described for treating acute wounds, chronic wounds and/or a wound or epithelial tissue surface that contains bacterial biofilm, including unexpected synergy between bismuth-thiol (BT) compounds and certain antibiotics, to provide topical formulations including antiseptic formulations, for management and promotion of wound healing and in particular infected wounds. Previously unpredicted antibacterial properties and anti-biofilm properties of disclosed BT compounds and BT compound-plus-antibiotic combinations are also described, including preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating gram-positive bacterial infections, and distinct preferential efficacies of certain such compositions for treating gram-negative bacterial infections.
