The present invention provides compositions comprising one or more active pharmaceutical ingredients, wherein the compositions are in the form of high solids concentration pastes capable of being injected in relatively low volumes into an animal using standard commercially available syringes. The invention also provides methods of making such compositions, particularly those compositions comprising high molecular weight active ingredients (e.g., antibodies, enzymes and other proteins and peptides) at relatively high therapeutic concentrations in the high solids concentration pastes. The invention further provides methods of using such formulations in treating, preventing and/or ameliorating certain diseases and physical disorders in animals, including humans, in need thereof. The invention also provides kits comprising the formulations of the invention and a suitable syringe, which in some aspects may be pre-loaded or pre-filled with a composition of the invention.

Described herein are compositions of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), wherein at least one polyalkylene glycol polymer is attached to a carbohydrate site of the TSH. Also described are compositions of mutated Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and at least one polyalkylene glycol polymer, wherein the mutated TSH comprises a TSH in which one or more amino acid residues has been substituted with cysteine residue, and the polyalkylene glycol polymer is attached to the mutated TSH at the site of the substituted cysteine residue. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising these TSH compositions and method of treating a thyroid condition in a patient in need thereof, by administering to the patient an effective amount of the pharmaceutical compositions are also described.

The disclosure provides compositions and methods for the use of oxytocin antagonists, such as substituted pyrrolidin-3-one oxime derivatives of formula (I), among other compounds, in the treatment of subjects undergoing embryo transfer therapy. The compositions and methods of the disclosure can be used to dose subjects with oxytocin antagonists, including (3Z,5S)-5-(hydroxymethyl)-1-[(2′-methyl-1,1′-biphenyl-4-yl)carbonyl]pyrrolidin-3-one O-methyloxime, among others, so as to improve endometrial receptivity and reduce the likelihood of embryo implantation failure and miscarriage following, for example, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) embryo transfer procedures.
