COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR BUCCAL ADMINISTRATION OF GnRH AGONISTS
Provided herein is an optimized method of enhancing endogenous gonadotropins and testosterone/estrogen production and concentrations comprising administration of a therapeutically effective amount of at least one GnRH agonist to a patient in need of such treatment. A method and dosing regimen is also described for delivery across the mucosa of the oral cavity for maximizing absorption and delivery, limiting systemic exposure and unwanted side effects, effectuating a sustained increase in concentrations of sex hormones and providing a non-invasive delivery that does not require inpatient visits. The method described benefits conditions such as hypogonadism in men due to aging or disease and symptoms related to menopause in women.
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS AND RELATED METHODS OF DELIVERY
The pharmaceutical compositions described herein include a suspension which comprises an admixture in solid form of a therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic agent and at least one salt of a medium chain fatty acid and a hydrophobic medium, e.g. castor oil or glyceryl tricaprylate or a mixture thereof. The pharmaceutical compositions described herein contain medium chain fatty acid salts and are substantially free of alcohols. The pharmaceutical compositions may be encapsulated in a capsule. Methods of treating or preventing diseases by administering such compositions to affected subjects are also disclosed.

MICROPARTICLES CONTAINING LEUPROLIDE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
The present invention provides microparticles containing leuprolide and a method for producing the same. When the microparticles are administered by injection, they may lower pain due to their small size, control the release rate of leuprolide at a target site, prevent excessive release of leuprolide at an initial stage, enable exposure to a sufficient amount of the drug to exhibit the effect of leuprolide, and exhibit the effect of leuprolide for 1 month or more. The present invention also provides a method for producing microparticles, in which the microparticles have a uniform particle size and a smooth surface and may exhibit the effect of releasing leuprolide sustainably over a long period of time.
