The invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions such as tablets that exhibit delayed release properties when administered as either whole or half tablets. The invention is also directed to delayed release tablets comprising deferiprone for oral administration, for which twice daily administration is bioequivalent to the same daily dose of an immediate release tablet administered thrice daily. The invention is also directed to methods of making and using the same.

A nanoparticle having a solid core comprising a biologically active substance, said core being enclosed by an inorganic coating, a method for preparing the nanoparticle, and the use of the nanoparticle in therapy. A kit comprising the nanoparticle and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the nanoparticle.

Provided is a manufacturing method of particles coated with coatable microparticles. The method is a manufacturing method of particles coated with coatable microparticles, comprising the step of adding the coatable microparticles to an inner core comprising a component of interest and a macromolecule, and, while rolling the mixture, coating the mixture while spraying a solvent that can dissolve the macromolecule, wherein the particles coated with the coatable microparticles are coated, component of interest-containing hollow particles.

The present invention relates to agents and compositions for the modification of the growth of bacterial cells. Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful for the prevention and/or treatment of a disease in a subject. In particular, the present invention relates to the field of repurposing pharmaceutical compounds for treatment strategies of infectious diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, inflammatory diseases, proliferative diseases, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and immunological diseases. Some of the compounds of the present invention demonstrate high specificity in inhibiting the growth of single bacterial species. Such compounds enable narrow-spectrum antibacterial therapies, constituting a major effort of current and future drug development strategies in order to reduce side effects of antibacterial treatment plans. Particularly interesting compounds of this invention are effective against pathobiological species such as Clostridium difficile, Clostridium perfingens, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and an enterotoxigenic strain of Bacteroides fragilis. Other compounds of the present invention reveal a strong inhibitory effect on a broad spectrum of bacterial species. Such compounds are useful for broad-spectrum antibiotic therapies of infections with unknown causative infecting bacterial species. Both types of compounds, especially the ones with narrow-spectrum antibacterialactivity, can further be used for modulating the microbiome composition and targeting species associated with dysbiosis and disease.
