ELECTRONIC DEVICES AND LIQUIDS FOR AEROSOLIZING AND INHALING THEREWITH
An electronic device includes a mouthpiece, a bladder, and a mesh assembly having a mesh material and a piezoelectric material. The mesh material is in contact with a liquid of the bladder. The mouthpiece, the bladder, and the mesh assembly are located in-line along a longitudinal axis of the device between opposite longitudinal ends of the device, with the mesh assembly extending between and separating the mouthpiece and the bladder. A liquid-filled cartridge also is disclosed for use with an electronic device for delivery of a substance into a body through respiration includes a liquid container; and a liquid contained within the container for aerosolizing and inhaling by a person using the electronic device. The liquid includes a plurality of nanoparticles in a nanoemulsion, the nanoparticles including the encapsulation of the substance to be delivered into the body through respiration. The nanoemulsion preferably is produced using a microfluidizing machine.
AMORPHOUS CALCIUM CARBONATE FOR TREATMENT OF ACIDOSIS
The preset invention is directed to ACC particles stabilized by at least one stabilizing agent, a pharmaceutical composition including same, and methods of using same, such as for treating or preventing an acidosis-related disease or condition in a subject in need thereof.
USE OF 5-AMINO-2,3-DIHYDRO-1,4-PHTHALAZINEDIONE IN THE INHALATORY TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATORY PULMONARY DISEASES
The present invention relates to the use of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione or its pharmaceutically acceptable N salts in the inhalatory treatment of inflammatory pulmonary diseases. The invention in particular relates to the use of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione sodium salt for said purposes. Advantageous features of an aerosol containing 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and a method for producing said aerosol are disclosed.

TREATMENT OF CYSTIC FIBROSIS BY DELIVERY OF NEBULIZED mRNA ENCODING CFTR
The present invention provides, among other things, an improved method of treating cystic fibrosis (CF) in a human subject. The method comprises administering a composition comprising an mRNA encoding a Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL or greater to a human subject via nebulization. The composition is aerosolized using a nebulizer and a nominal dose of the mRNA is administered to the human subject via the nebulizer over a period of time, typically at least 30 minutes, at a suitable nebulization rate, e.g., at least 0.2 mL/minute.
TREATMENT OF CYSTIC FIBROSIS BY DELIVERY OF NEBULIZED mRNA ENCODING CFTR
The present invention provides, among other things, an improved method of treating cystic fibrosis (CF) in a human subject. The method comprises administration of a composition comprising an mRNA encoding a Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein by nebulization at a dose between 7 mg and 25 mg. A suitable dose for use in the method of the invention is selected on the basis that it provides the human subject with at least a 3% increase in absolute change in ppFEV1 (percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second) from baseline ppFEV1 at two days following the administration. In addition or alternatively, the dose is selected to provide the human subject with at least a 2% increase in absolute change in ppFEV1 from baseline ppFEV1 at one week following the administration. In addition or alternatively, the dose is selected to provide the human subject with at least a 4% maximum increase in absolute change in ppFEV1 from baseline ppFEV1 through one week following administration.
FORMULATIONS FOR DELIVERY OF OLIGONUCLEOTIDES TO LUNG CELLS
The present disclosure provides a method of pulmonarily administering an oligonucleotide to lung cells. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides formulations that comprise an oligonucleotide that is complementary to a target gene in lung cells and a lipid nanoparticle. Methods of the present disclosure are useful in modifying expression of target genes associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and pulmonary fibrosis.
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION OF TRICYCLIC PDE3/PDE4 DUAL INHIBITOR COMPOUND
A pharmaceutical composition of a tricyclic PDE3/PDE4 dual inhibitor compound and a preparation method therefor, specifically relating to a pharmaceutical composition of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a preparation method thereof, and use thereof
METHODS OF TREATMENT USING NICLOSAMIDE
The present invention provides for a method for the treatment of a respiratory disease, disorder or condition, or a viral infection or viral disease, disorder or condition in a subject, the method comprising the step of administering to the subject a medically active liquid in nebulized form by inhalation, wherein the medically active liquid comprises niclosamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and wherein the medically active liquid is administered in nebulized form using an inhalation device, and wherein the inhalation device used to administer the medically active liquid comprising the niclosamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is a soft-mist-inhaler.
