TREATMENT OF CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA USING BOTULINUM TOXIN
Botulinum toxin for use in treating arrhythmia in a patient in need thereof is provided. The treatment comprises administering botulinum toxin to the patient. Botulinum toxin may be administered by subcutaneous or intradermal injection. The subcutaneous or intradermal injection may be administered to and/or around the vicinity of a trigeminal nerve, a cervical nerve, a thoracic nerve, a lumbar nerve, and/or a sacral nerve of the patient.
TREATMENT OF VASOPRESSOR-INDUCED DIGITAL ISCHEMIA WITH BOTULINUM TOXIN A
A method of treating a patient suffering from vasopressor-induced digital ischemia of a hand, finger or thumb comprises providing Botulinum toxin; and injecting the Botulinum toxin in close proximity to one or more blood vessels that supply blood to the hand, finger or thumb, including and not limited to the palmar arch, ulnar and radial arteries. A method of treating a patient suffering from vasopressor-induced digital ischemia of the hand, finger(s), or thumb comprises providing Botulinum toxin; and injecting the Botulinum toxin in close proximity to one or more blood vessels that supply blood to the hand. A method of treating a patient suffering from vasopressor-induced digital ischemia of a foot comprises providing Botulinum toxin; and injecting the Botulinum toxin in close proximity to one or more blood vessels that supply blood to the toe(s) and foot, including and not limited to the plantar arch, anterior tibial/dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial arteries.
Long lasting effect of new botulinum toxin formulations
The invention relates to the use of an animal-protein-free botulinum toxin composition to treat a disease, disorder or condition in a patient in need thereof whereby the animal-protein-free botulinum toxin composition exhibits a longer lasting effect in the patient compared to an animal-protein-containing botulinum toxin composition.
Non-neuronal snare-cleaving botulinum neurotoxins
The present invention provides a modified botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) L-chain protease that demonstrates enhanced cleaveage of human SNAP-23 (hSNAP-23) relative to unmodified (wild-type) BoNT/A L-chain protease, together with the use thereof for cleaving hSNAP-23.
IMMUNOLOGICALLY OPTIMIZED BOTULINUM TOXIN LIGHT CHAIN VARIANTS
Deimmunized botulinum toxin light chain (e.g., botulinum toxin serotype A light chains (BoNT/A-LC)) or fragments thereof are provided. Methods for treating or preventing diseases or disorders comprising administering to a subject a deimmunized botulinum toxin light chain (e.g., BoNT/A-LC) are provided.
CLOSTRIDIAL TOXIN - HYALURONIC ACID COMPOSITIONS
Pharmaceutical compositions that extend the effect and duration of a Clostridial toxin active ingredient are described. The compositions can be liquid or solid compositions, and comprise a non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid or salt thereof as described in the application, a surfactant and an antioxidant. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise a surfactant selected from a poloxamer and a polysorbate; an antioxidant selected from methionine. N-acetyl cysteine, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and combinations thereof, and, optionally, a tonicity agent and/or a lyoprotector selected from, for example, trehalose, sucrose.
CGRP ANTAGONISTS AND CLOSTRIDIAL DERIVATIVES FOR THE TREATMENT OF NEUROPSYCHIATRIC AND NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS
Methods for treating neurological or neuropsychiatric disorder and related symptoms by administering a CGRP antagonist and a Clostridial derivative are described.
Magnetic nanoparticle delivery system for pain therapy
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to magnetic nanoparticles having a non-narcotic analgesic, as well as methods of preparation and use thereof. A magnetically response pharmaceutical can include a core region having magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and a protein-based analgesic. Further, an exterior coating comprising a polymer can be formed around the core region. The magnetically responsive pharmaceutical can be administered to a recipient and directed to a target region using an external magnetic field.
Pharmaceutical composition for treating foot pain disease including botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid, and foot pain disease treatment method using same
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treating a foot pain disease, including botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid, and a foot pain disease treatment method using the same. More specifically, the composition according to the present invention can exhibit a synergistic action of increasing both anti-inflammatory and anti-pain activity through an inflammation-inhibiting effect on a foot pain disease such as pain arising from plantar fasciitis, foot fasciitis, Achilles tendon damage, flat feet, diabetes, and gout. Thus, the composition according to the present invention is expected to be able to be usefully used subcutaneously in the foot as a liquid injection agent that exhibits an effect of treating or alleviating a foot pain disease.
