Method for treating a disease, condition, or syndrome in a subject comprising administering, to a subject in need thereof, a solid or liquid pharmaceutical composition comprising: (a) a high purity botulinum neurotoxin or a complex comprising botulinum neurotoxin, wherein the botulinum neurotoxin is of type A, B, C, D, E, F or G; and (b) a surfactant;
wherein the composition does not comprise albumin or a polysaccharide.

Methods and compositions for modifying glycans (e.g., glycans expressed on the surface of live cells or cell particles) are provided herein.

Disclosed herein is a method for coupling a first compound having the formula (I) with a second compound that contains a carbonyl group. Also disclosed herein are compounds that can be formed by this method, and uses for such compounds. ##STR00001##

Provided are novel compounds of Formula (I): ##STR00001##
pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof, which are useful in the treatment of diseases and disorders mediated by RORγ. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the novel compounds of Formula (I) and methods for their use in treating one or more inflammatory, metabolic, autoimmune and other diseases or disorders.

The present invention pertains to an inventive release mechanism for extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated intracellular and intramembrane delivery of therapeutic polypeptides. More specifically, the invention relates to EVs comprising polypeptide constructs which comprise a therapeutic polypeptide releasably attached to an exosomal polypeptide. Furthermore, the present invention pertains to manufacturing methods, pharmaceutical compositions, medical uses and applications, and various other embodiments related to the inventive EVs.

This invention provides for a fusion protein between an IL2αβγ Selective Agonist protein (IL2 Selective Agonist) and a IgG Fc protein using a linker. The IL2 Selective Agonist moiety provides a therapeutic activity by selectively activating the IL2αβγ form of the receptor, thus selectively stimulating Tregs. The Fc moiety provides a prolonged circulating half-life compared to the circulating half-life of IL-2 or an IL2SA protein.

The use of fecal matter in the treatment of a subject having autoimmune disease, wherein the fecal matter is autologous to the subject, and preferably administered to the small intestine, preferably the duodenum, of the subject. The fecal matter can be one or more constituents of autologous feces, preferably chosen from the group consisting of bacteria, viruses, bacteriophages, fungi, metabolites, microRNAs, proteins, antibodies, and/or antigens.

The present invention relates to nucleic acids of the general formula (I): (N.sub.uG.sub.lX.sub.mG.sub.nN.sub.v).sub.a and derivatives thereof as an immunostimulating agent/adjuvant and to compositions containing same, optionally comprising an additional adjuvant. The present invention furthermore relates to a pharmaceutical composition or to a vaccine, each containing nucleic acids of formula (I) above and/or derivatives thereof as an immunostimulating agent, and optionally at least one additional pharmaceutically active component, e.g. an antigenic agent. The present invention relates likewise to the use of the pharmaceutical composition or of the vaccine for the treatment of cancer diseases, infectious diseases, allergies and autoimmune diseases etc. Likewise, the present invention includes the use of nucleic acids of the general formula (I): (N.sub.uG.sub.lX.sub.mG.sub.nN.sub.v).sub.a and/or derivatives thereof for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of such diseases.

This invention relates to a hemifumarate salt of 1-(4-{1-[(E)-4-cyclohexyl-3-trifluoromethyl-benzyloxyimino]-ethyl}-2-ethy-l-benzyl)-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid (Compound I), to pharmaceutical compositions comprising this salt, to processes for forming this salt and to its use in medical treatment. In addition, the present invention also relates to new polymorphic forms of the hemifumarate salt form of Compound I, as well as to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these polymorphic forms, to processes for obtaining them, and their use in medical treatment.
