The present disclosure relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of α-synuclein (target protein). In particular, the present disclosure is directed to bifunctional compounds, which contain on one end a Von Hippel-Lindau, cereblon. Inhibitors of Apotosis Proteins or mouse double-minute homolog 2 ligand which binds to the respective E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds the target protein, such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of target protein. The present disclosure exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with degradation/inhibition of target protein. Diseases or disorders that result from aggregation or accumulation of the target protein are treated or prevented with compounds and compositions of the present disclosure.

Described herein are nasal pharmaceutical compositions comprising a porous excipient and an active agent, wherein the active agent is loaded onto a surface of the porous excipient located inside pores of the porous excipient, and wherein the composition is adapted for nasal administration. Also described herein are methods of making and using nasal pharmaceutical compositions.

Disclosed are compounds, compositions and methods for treating and/or ameliorating diseases, syndromes, disorders, or conditions associated with AR mutant receptors linked to castration-resistant prostate cancer, in a subject, including a mammal and/or human, in need thereof, who has demonstrated resistance to a first or second generation AR antagonist, comprising, consisting of, and/or consisting essentially of, administering to a subject in need thereof, a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I)

wherein R.sub.1, G, R.sub.10, and R.sub.11 are defined herein.

The present invention is directed to a method of treating a fungal infection comprising administering topically, to a subject in need thereof, an anti-fungal effective amount of roflumilast. Preferably, topically administered roflumilast is used to treat fungal infections, fungal growth of and/or hypersensitivity to the fungi Malassezia spp. Patients may also be suffering from seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, dupilumab facial redness, Tinea versicolor, Pityriasis versicolor, Tinea circinata, Tinea pedis, Tinea unguium, Tinea manus, Tinea cruris, Tinea corporis, Tinea faciei, Tinea capitis, and/or Tinea incognito. Topically administered roflumilast is a quick and effective antifungal agent and presents a viable alternative to current antifungal treatments.

Methods for treatment of infections, such as nasal infections, sinus infections, ear infections, and/or lung infections, along with related compositions. In some implementations, a treatment method may comprise delivering a dose of the composition into a subject's nasal passage to treat the infection. The composition may comprise an antibiotic agent, such as ciprofloxacin. The composition may further comprise at least one non-hexose, sugar alcohol, such as xylitol. Preferably, the dose comprises a sub-clinical dose of the ciprofloxacin or other antibiotic agent.
