Provided herein are substituted biaryl sulfonamide compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, methods of their preparation, and methods of their use. The compounds provided herein are useful for the treatment, prevention, and/or amelioration of various disorders, including cancer and proliferative disorders. In one embodiment, the compounds provided herein modulate initiation of protein translation. In one embodiment, the compounds provided herein are used in combination with surgery, radiation therapy, immuno therapy and/or one or more additional anticancer drugs for the treatment, prevention, and/or amelioration of cancer and proliferative disorders.

The present disclosure is drawn to a method of treating a patient in need of treatment, comprising identifying a patient in need of treatment for stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, myocardial infarction, shock, organ ischemia, ventricular arrhythmias, ischemic injury, or hypoxia/ischemia; administering a bolus of glyburide to the patient; and administering a continuous infusion of glyburide to the patient at from about 15 μg/hr and about 300 μg/hr, wherein the continuous infusion glyburide is administered for a period of time more than about 20 hours.

Disclosed herein are methods and kits for treating or preventing a heart condition, e.g., cardiac arrhythmia, e.g., atrial arrhythmia, using potassium channel inhibitors and class I antiarrhythmic agents. Also disclosed herein are methods and kits for treating a heart condition via an intravenously, orally, or inhalationally administered fixed-dose combination of a sodium channel blocker and a class I antiarrhythmic agent.

Embodiments of the invention are broadly drawn to methods for determining an optimum dose of an antiarrhythmic drug, for example sotalol. In particular, the method involves titrating the dose of the drug gradually to determine the optimum plasma concentration for a patient, whether the patient has normal or abnormal renal function.

Methods of administering sotalol hydrochloride in an amount effective for treating a cardiovascular condition are described. An initial IV loading dose can be administered over a period of about one hour, followed by a first oral dose. The patient can be discharged from the medical facility providing cardiac monitoring prior to administration of additional oral doses. The IV and first oral doses can be administered in a manner such that maximum serum concentration of sotalol is reached and the patient can be discharged within about 7-8 hours.
