Asenapine-containing adhesive patch
An object of the present invention is to provide an asenapine-containing patch having excellent sustained-release properties while enhancing skin permeability by using a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive base. The present invention relates to a patch having a support and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer comprises asenapine and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive base and a release control agent, and the ratio of the maximum skin permeation rate of asenapine to the minimum skin permeation rate from the time when the maximum skin permeation rate is reached to 24 hours is less than 1.62.
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING CLOSTRIDIUM DIFFICILE TOXOIDS A AND B
This invention relates to compositions including Clostridium difficile toxins and/or toxoids and corresponding methods. The compositions of the invention include one or more excipients that increase stability and/or decrease aggregation of the toxins.

FORMULATIONS OF BENDAMUSTINE
Long term storage stable bendamustine-containing compositions are disclosed. The compositions can include bendamustine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable fluid which can include in some embodiments PEG, PG or mixtures thereof and an antioxidant or chloride ion source. The bendamustine-containing compositions have less than about 5% total impurities, on a normalized peak area response (“PAR”) basis as determined by high performance liquid chromatography (“HPLC”) at a wavelength of 223 nm, after at least about 15 months of storage at a temperature of from about 5° C. to about 25° C.
