Methods, compositions, and kits for adjunctive therapy using 25-hydroxyvitamin D are disclosed. The 25-hydroxyvitamin D may be administered with an agent that increases the risk of hypocalcemia, such as cinacalcet or a salt thereof, and/or an anticancer agent. The adjunctive therapy is effective to treat and prevent iatrogenic hypocalcemia and/or secondary hyperparathyroidism, as well as delay cancer progression and the time to a post-treatment skeletal related event.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a treatment material for the treatment of a disease of which symptom is alleviated or treated by reducing a blood phosphorus concentration. The treatment material according to the present invention is characterized in comprising a water-insoluble carrier and 1 or more adsorbing groups selected from the group consisting of a phosphate group, a phosphonate group, a phosphinate group, an amino group, a carboxy group and a thiol group, wherein the adsorbing group binds to the water-insoluble carrier through a linker group, the treatment material is used for treating a disease, wherein a symptom of the disease is alleviated or treated by reducing a blood phosphorus concentration, and dialyzed blood is passed through the treatment material to adsorb a calciprotein particle in the dialyzed blood on the adsorbing group, or blood is passed through the treatment material and then dialyzed.

The invention features methods for preventing or treating CGRP associated disorders such as vasomotor symptoms and/or headaches (e.g., migraine, cluster headache, and tension headache) by administering an anti-CGRP antagonist antibody. Compositions for use in the disclosed methods are also provided. Antagonist antibody G1 and antibodies derived from G1 directed to CGRP are also described.

The present invention relates to compositions comprising biologically active proteins linked to extended recombinant polypeptide (XTEN), isolated nucleic acids encoding the compositions and vectors and host cells containing the same, and methods of using such compositions in treatment of glucose-related diseases, metabolic diseases, coagulation disorders, and growth hormone-related disorders and conditions.
