The invention pertains to a method of treating melanoma by administering to a subject in need thereof, a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of an inhibitor of PKC-ζ and/or PKC-.Math.. Non-limiting examples of an inhibitor of PKC-ζ and/or PKC-.Math. include ICA-1 and ACPD. The invention also provides PKC-ζ and/or PKC-.Math. as biomarkers for identifying a melanoma in a subject as likely to be responsive or non-responsive to a therapy using an inhibitor of PKC-ζ and/or PKC-.Math.. Accordingly, a method of identifying a subject having a melanoma as being responsive or non-responsive to a melanoma therapy with an inhibitor of PKC-ζ and/or PKC-.Math. based on the levels and/or activity of PKC-ζ and/or and/or PKC-.Math. mRNA or protein in the melanoma cells from the subject are also provided.

The present disclosure introduces intranasal (IN) pharmaceutical formulations having naloxone or an opioid antagonist as the active agent, and an absorption enhancer, such as a bile acid, or a salt thereof, for IN delivery. The bile acid, or salt thereof, enhances absorption of naloxone or an opioid antagonist into the bloodstream of a human subject.

The inventors have unexpectedly discovered that shock and/or potential multi-organ failure due to shock can be effectively treated by administration of liquid high-dose protease inhibitor formulations to a location upstream of where pancreatic proteases are introduced into the gastrointestinal tract. Most preferably, administration is directly to the stomach, for example, via nasogastric tube under a protocol effective to treat shock by such administration without the need of providing significant quantities of the protease inhibitor to the jejunum and/or ileum.
