Provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions containing (a) at least one liposome includes at least one vesicle-forming phospholipid; and (b) treprostinil encapsulated within the liposome. The ratio of treprostinil to phospholipid is equal to or higher than 0.035 and provides a controlled release of treprostinil. Also provided is the use of the pharmaceutical compositions to treat respiratory diseases.

The present invention provides liposomes loaded with chelating agents, pharmaceutical formulations including these liposomes and methods of making chelating agent liposomes. Because the chelating agents are loaded in the liposome with high efficiencies, the liposomes are of use in treatment of metal ion overload in subjects. The liposomes can also contain essential trace metals to compensate for the off target effect of removal of endogenous non-target trace metals by administration of the chelator. The liposomes can include two or more different chelating agents of different structures and affinities for metal ions.

A dialyzer (15) includes a hollow fiber dialysis column (20), a liquid tubing section (12a), and a flow rate changing section (16a). The hollow fiber dialysis column (20) includes a hollow fiber membrane, a first flow channel that allows a dialysis target to flow internally of the hollow fiber membrane, and a second flow channel that allows an external liquid to flow externally of the hollow fiber membrane. The liquid tubing section (12a) tubes the dialysis target to an inlet (20a) of the first flow channel. The flow rate changing section (16a) is capable of changing a flow rate of the dialysis target at the dialysis target flowing out of an outlet (20b) of the first flow channel.

A long-lasting, controlled-release local anesthetic liposome preparation is produced by: providing a liposome composition, which is obtained by mixing, in a water-miscible organic solvent, a first aqueous phase solution with a water-miscible organic solution, in which a phospholipid and cholesterol are contained at a defined total concentration, at a defined ratio by volume thereby obtaining an emulsion wherein a total concentration of the phospholipid and cholesterol in the mixed phase is at 15 w/v % to 50 w/v %, followed by subjecting the emulsion to external solution exchange with a second aqueous phase solution to obtain a liposome composition wherein an ion gradient is formed between an internal-region aqueous phase of a liposome membrane made of the first aqueous phase solution and an external-region aqueous phase of the liposome membrane made of the second aqueous phase solution; and encapsulating a local anesthetic in the internal-region aqueous phase according to a remote loading method.

The present invention relates to a liposomal doxorubicin formulation, a method for producing a liposomal doxorubicin formulation and a liposomal doxorubicin formulation for use as a medicament, in particular for use in the treatment of cancer, uterine leiomyosarcoma and adnexal skin cancer.

[Problem] To provide: a lipid membrane structure which has such a particle diameter that the lipid membrane structure can be sterilized by filtration, contains a lipid that is bound to a peptide composed of multiple arginine residues as a constituent lipid, and includes a bacterial cell component having dispersibility in a non-polar solvent; and a method for producing a lipid membrane structure which has such a particle diameter that the lipid membrane structure can be sterilized by filtration and includes a substance of interest having dispersibility in a non-polar solvent. [Solution] A lipid membrane structure which has such a particle diameter that the lipid membrane structure can be sterilized by filtration, contains a lipid that is bound to a peptide composed of multiple arginine residues as a constituent lipid, and includes a bacterial cell component having dispersibility in a non-polar solvent.
