Provided herein are certain ophthalmic formulations for post-operative ocular care.

The disclosure provides nanoemulsion compositions and methods of making and using thereof to deliver a bioactive agent such as a nucleic acid to a subject. The nanoemulsion composition comprises a hydrophobic core based on inorganic nanoparticles in a lipid nanoparticle that allows imaging as well as delivering nucleic acids. Methods of using these particles for treatment and vaccination are also provided.

Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to novel immunostimulatory compositions of use to stimulate non-specific immune responses in a subject. In certain embodiments, immunostimulatory compositions disclosed herein can be directed to preventing or treating an infection, cancer or other immunocompromising health condition in the subject. In some embodiments, the immunostimulatory compositions disclosed herein enhance non-specific immune responses systemically or locally in the subject to treat or reduce the risk of onset of a health condition. In some embodiments, immunostimulatory compositions disclosed can be used to induce a non-specific immune response within mucosal surfaces such as the nasopharynx, upper respiratory tract, eye, GI tract, and reproductive tract to induce a non-specific immune response in order to reduce onset of or treat an infection or other health condition.

The invention features pharmaceutical compositions, methods, and kits featuring dosing gimens and oral dosage formulations for administration of echinocandin class compounds.

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.

The present invention discloses a solution formulation for aerosol inhalation of naringenin and preparation method thereof. The formulation is prepared from 1 part by weight of naringenin, 15-30 parts by weight of hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin, a buffer-salt solution and an appropriate amount of an excipient. The preparation method includes: preparing a buffer-salt solution of a pH value of 7-8.5 by using the buffer salt, adding the naringenin into the buffer-salt solution, then adding the hydroxypropyl P-cyclodextrin, shaking in a constant-temperature air bath till complete dissolving and coating, adding an appropriate amount of the excipient, filtering, filling and sterilizing. The present invention, by firstly increasing the solubility of the free naringenin in the solvent by adjusting the pH value, and then coating the naringenin with the hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin, significantly increases the overall concentration of the naringenin in the solvent.

The present invention discloses an ionic liquid composition comprising an at least partially hydrophobic ionic liquid, wherein the at least partially hydrophobic ionic liquid comprises a di cation comprising two monocationic groups linked by a bridging group wherein the bridging group provides an at least partially hydrophobic character. The composition may also include a hydrophilic ionic liquid. The hydrophobic ionic liquid may include a quaternary ammonium group which may be substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, linear, branched, cyclic or aromatic and the bridging group is a unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.3-C.sub.10 alkylene or C.sub.3-C.sub.10 alkoxy alkyl. Also disclosed is a nanoemulsion formulation which includes the ionic liquid compositions, at least one polymer, a hydrophobic liquid, an aqueous liquid, and a hydrophobic or hydrophilic therapeutic agent. Methods to deliver a therapeutic agent by delivering a nanoemulsion and methods to make a nanoemulsion are also disclosed.

Lipid-based vesicles, typically herein called transfection competent vesicles (TCVs), configured to safely and efficiently deliver DNA, RNA, other nucleic acid and protein cargoes into target cells. The safety and efficiency are each, and both, achieved in part by eliminating organic solvents such as ethanol and detergents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate from the TCV loading processes (i.e., inserting a cargo into the TCV), TCV storage processes, and/or TCV delivery processes. The cargoes can also comprise nucleic acids complexed with a protein, such as a ribonucleoprotein (RNP). The systems, compositions, devices and methods, etc., herein, in some embodiments, can provide empty TCVs that can if desired be loaded at the bench without use of specialized equipment.

Methods for quality control and optimizing the formation and characterization of micelles, vesicles or other aggregates are described herein. Pharmaceutically relevant peptides may be modified to form glycopeptide surfactants which form micelles or other aggregates with another surfactant. Glycopeptide and glycolipid surfactants can aggregate to form particles that enhance drug delivery. The glycopeptide surfactants may be drugs or prodrugs which are delivered via the micelles or other aggregated structures.

The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an opioid antagonist, isotonicity agent, a preservative agent, a stabilizing agent and citric acid. The pharmaceutical compositions are stable under various storage conditions. Methods of using the pharmaceutical compositions are also disclosed including methods of treatment
