In one aspect, compositions are described herein. A composition described herein comprises a nanoparticle, a therapeutic species, and a linker joining the nanoparticle to the therapeutic species. The linker joining the nanoparticle to the therapeutic species comprises a Diels-Alder cyclo-addition reaction product. Additionally, in some embodiments, the nanoparticle is a magnetic nanoparticle.

An immunoreactive substance carrier according to an embodiment of the present invention may stably deliver various immunoreactive substances including antibodies and/or cytokines, to a target site, thereby exhibiting excellent immunotherapeutic effects. Therefore, a composition including the immunoreactive substance carrier can be used for immunotherapy, thereby having excellent effects in the prevention or treatment of cancer or various immune diseases.

An aqueous liquid suspension containing a coated drug—ion exchange resin complex comprising a core composed of an amphetamine complexed with a pharmaceutically acceptable ion-exchange resin and an uncoated amphetamine—ion exchange resin complex is provided. The coated amphetamine—ion exchange resin complex is in admixture with a polymer to form a matrix. Methods of making the coated complex and the liquid suspension are described.

The present disclosure provides, inter alia, compositions comprising drug-containing polymeric particles that mimic lymphocyte migration in vivo and can specifically deliver immunosuppressive or immunoregulatory drugs to lymphoid tissues and sites of chronic inflammation where T-cell activation and T-cell mediated injury are occurring. Methods of preparing and using these drug-containing polymeric particles are also provided.

In one aspect, the disclosure relates to methods of treating a disease or condition characterized by allergic inflammation, including, but not limited to, asthma, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic dermatitis, allergic esophagitis, allergic rhinitis, allergen-specific serum IgE production, allergic lung and airway inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR) with minimal pulmonary adverse reaction, by administration of at least one CSF1R inhibitor and optionally a further therapeutic agent that is an anti-inflammatory drug and/or respiratory drug. In some aspects, the disclosed CSF1R inhibitors useful in the treatment of characterized by allergic inflammation can be administered using a disclosed pharmaceutical composition. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.

Provided herein are copolymers comprising a plurality of a first monomer and a plurality of a second monomer, wherein chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, or a chloroquine analog is appended to at least a portion of the plurality of the first monomer. Also provided are nanoparticles comprising copolymers as described herein, and methods of using the copolymers and nanoparticles for treating diseases or disorders, e.g., Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) or cancer (e.g., colon cancer).

A particulate, modified release barrier coated drug-cation exchange resin complex comprising a core composed of a drug complexed with a pharmaceutically acceptable ion-exchange resin is provided. Methods of making and products containing this coated complex are described.

An aqueous liquid suspension containing a coated drug-ion exchange resin complex comprising a core composed of an amphetamine complexed with a pharmaceutically acceptable ion-exchange resin and an uncoated amphetamine-ion exchange resin complex is provided. The coated amphetamine-ion exchange resin complex is in admixture with a polymer to form a matrix. Methods of making the coated complex and the liquid suspension are described.

Bacteriophage covalently attached to a carrier particle with an average diameter of from 0.1 microns to 15 microns, are used in topical treatment of bacterial infection. Bacteriophage covalently attached to a carrier particle of average diameter 7 microns or less are used in systemic treatment of bacterial infection. A plurality of bacteriophages lytic against different bacterial strains gives wide antibacterial activity. A combination therapy comprises administration of antibiotic and bacteriophage covalently attached to a carrier particle.

Non-linear multiblock copolymer-drug conjugates for the treatment and prevention of diseases and disorders of the eye are provided. The polymer-drug conjugates can form nanoparticles, microparticles, and implants that are capable of effectively delivering therapeutic levels of one or more active agents for an extended period of time. Administration to the eye of an active agent in the form of a non-linear multiblock copolymer-drug conjugate produces decreased side effects when compared to administration of the active agent alone. Also provided are methods of treating intraocular neovascular diseases, such as wet age-related macular degeneration as well as diseases and disorders of the eye associated with inflammation, such as uveitis.
