The present invention relates to complexes of transcription factor decoys, their delivery to bacteria and their formulation. In particular, the present invention resides in an antibacterial complex comprising a nucleic acid sequence and one or more delivery moieties selected from quaternary amine compounds; bis-aminoalkanes and unsaturated derivatives thereof, wherein the amino component of the aminoalkane is an amino group forming part of a heterocyclic ring; and an antibacterial peptide.

The present invention provides a preparation method for agomelatine-resorcinol and agomelatine-hydroquinone co-crystals using the solvent-antisolvent method that enables a commercial mass production. The co-crystals prepared by the preparation method of the present invention displays high dissolution rate and high stability in acidic-to-neutral media.

Complexes of neridronic acid, in an acid or a salt form, with amino acids, can be used to treat or alleviate pain or related conditions, such as complex regional pain syndrome.

Carbohydrate functionalized catanionic vesicles that include a glycoconjugate and/or peptidoconjugate for vaccination or drug delivery, methods for forming these, and methods of using these.

The present disclosure is directed to a method of making a composition by combining a vehicle, e.g., a single phase vehicle, and an insoluble component comprising a beneficial agent, and sterilizing the composition using ionizing radiation prior to use, wherein the beneficial agent is stable following exposure to a sterilizing dose of ionizing radiation. Related compositions and methods are provided.

The present disclosure provides a biodegradable drug delivery composition including a vehicle and an insoluble component comprising beneficial agent dispersed in the vehicle. Typically, the composition is not an emulsion, but has a low viscosity and further provides for minimized initial burst and sustained release of the beneficial agent over time. Also provided, are kits including the biodegradable drug delivery composition or components thereof, as well as methods of making and using the biodegradable drug delivery composition.

A method of delivering an active ingredient to a subject in need thereof is provided. The method includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a formulation comprising biodegradable, polymeric microparticles and an active ingredient selected from the group consisting of levo-alpha-acetylmethadol (LAAM), nor-LAAM, and dinor-LAAM, wherein the active ingredient is part of a hydrophobic ion-pairing (HIP) complex and wherein the HIP complex is associated with the microparticles. Sustained release formulations containing an active ingredient are also provided.

The present disclosure provides compositions which enable the delivery of cargo, including therapeutic agents such as RNA, to organs or tissues in addition to the liver, lungs, and spleen, such as brain, heart, kidney, and muscle tissue. More specifically, the compositions comprise a plurality of lipid particles comprising an agent, cationic lipids and ionizable lipid.

The present invention relates to a composition for skin penetration, wherein the composition contains an ion conjugate in which a cationic compound is ionically combined with an anionic bioactive material, and delivers the bioactive material into the skin. According to the present invention, various kinds of anionic bioactive materials, such as diagnostic reagents, medicines, and fluorescent materials, are allowed to easily pass through cell membranes and skin layers, and thus can be delivered to the epidermal layer and dermal layer of the skin.
