Methods for treating eye diseases associated with inflammation and/or vascular proliferation in subjects are disclosed. The methods include administering therapeutically effective amounts of a tranilast compound, in particular (E)-2-[[3-(3-Methoxy-4-propargyloxy)phenyl)-1-oxo-2-propenyl]amino]benzoic acid or (E)-2-[[3,4-Bis(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-1-oxo-2-propenyl]amino]benzoic acid or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof.

The invention provides novel compositions comprising semifluorinated alkanes and at least one compound sensitive or prone to oxidation. The compositions can be used as medicines that are topically administered to an eye or ophthalmic tissue. The invention further provides kits comprising such compositions.

The present disclosure provides compounds and methods of use thereof for treating inflammatory diseases or disorders.

The invention is directed to topical drug vehicle platform compositions for ophthalmological and dermatological use. These compositions comprise a means to sequester tears and an ophthalmological drug. The invention is further directed to methods of treating a spectrum of ocular surface disease epitheliopathies including but not limited to dry eye in a human or mammal. The invention is further directed to contact lenses, punctum plugs, pellets or any other device used to deliver drugs to the surface of the eye, coated or infused with compositions of the invention.

Compounds of the present invention and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions thereof, are useful as modulators of ATP-Binding Cassette (“ABC”) transporters or fragments thereof, including Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (“CFTR”). The present invention also relates to methods of treating ABC transporter mediated diseases using compounds of the present invention.

A composition and method of treatment of neuromuscular, neuromuscular degenerative, neurodegenerative, autoimmune, developmental, traumatic, hearing loss related, and/or metabolic diseases, including spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) syndrome (SMA1, SMA2, SMA3, and SMA4, also called Type I, II, III and IV), traumatic brain injury (TBI), concussion, keratoconjunctivitis sicca (Dry Eye Disease), glaucoma, Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, post-LASIK surgery, anti-depressants use, Wolfram Syndrome, and Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. The composition is selected from the group consisting of 2,3-DNP, 2,4-DNP, 2,5-DNP, 2,6-DNP, 3,4-DNP, or 3,5-DNP, bipartite 2,3-dinitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, 2,5-dinitrophenol, 2,6-dinitrophenol, 3,4-dinitrophenol, or 3,5-dinitrophenol (2,3-DNP, 2,4-DNP, 2,5-DNP, 2,6-DNP, 3,4-DNP, or 3,5-DNP) prodrugs; Gemini prodrugs, bioprecursor molecules, and combinations thereof. A dose of the composition for treatment of neurodegenerative diseases may be from about 0.01 mg/kg of body weight to about 50 mg/kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment. A dose of the composition for treatment of metabolic diseases may be from about 1 mg/70 kg of body weight to about 100 mg/70 kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment, and a maximum dose per day is about 200 mg/70 kg of body weight of the patient in need of treatment.

The present disclosure relates to crystalline solid forms of a stimulator of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), Compound I: ##STR00001##
Also provided herein are methods for the preparation of these solid forms. The invention also relates to pharmaceutical formulations and dosage forms comprising these solid forms and their uses thereof, alone or in combination with one or more additional agents, for treating and/or preventing various diseases or disorders; these diseases or disorders are ones that may benefit from sGC stimulation or from an increase in the concentration of nitric oxide (NO) and/or cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).
