The present invention is directed to orally administered corticosteroid compositions. The present invention also provides a method for treating a condition associated with inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract in an individual. The method comprises administering to an individual in need thereof a pharmaceutical composition of the present invention.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising or consisting of a combination of (a) two or more peptides, each peptide consisting of or comprising 17 to 23 amino acids, wherein the amino acids in positions 1 to 23, counted from the N-terminus, are as follows (1) G, S or lacking; (2) C or lacking; (3) K or R; (4) K or R; (5) Y, W or F; (6) K or R; (7) K or R; (8) F, W or L; (9) K or R; (10) K or L or lacking; (11) W, L or F; (12) K or R; (13) F, Y or C; (14) K or R; (15) G or Q; (16) K or R; (17) F, L or W; (18) F or W; (19) F, L or W; (20) W or F; (21) C or lacking; (22) F or G or lacking; (23) G or lacking; or (b) one or more peptides, each peptide consisting of or comprising 17 to 23 amino acids, wherein the amino acids in positions 1 to 23, counted from the N-terminus, are as follows (1) G, S or lacking; (2) C or lacking; (3) K or R; (4) K or R; (5) Y, W or F; (6) K or R; (7) K or R; (8) F, W or L; (9) K or R; (10) K or L or lacking; (11) W, L or F; (12) K or R; (13) F, Y or C; (14) K or R; (15) G or Q; (16) K or R; (17) F, L or W; (18) F or W; (19) F, L or W; (20) W or F; (21) C or lacking; (22) F or G or lacking; (23) G or lacking, and one or more antibiotics selected from small organic molecule antibiotics such as ceftriaxone, oxacillin, amoxicillin, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, imipenem and tetracycline, and peptidic antibiotics such as daptomycin and vancomycin.

In one aspect, a method of treating a disorder associated with chronic inflammation includes administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of isomyosmine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some aspects, the disorder is a cancer, an autoimmune disorder, hypertension, or autism. In other aspects, isomyosmine is administered to treat viral infections or disorders associated with elevated levels of hydrogen peroxide and/or other Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS).

This invention is directed to methods for treating and preventing influenza infection by inhibiting influenza virus HA maturation processes employing compounds of formula I. It is also directed to combinations for treating and preventing influenza infection comprising compounds of formula I and other agents.

The present invention relates to antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind to PD-1, and to methods of using such antibodies and antigen-binding fragments. For example, the present invention provides humanized anti-PD-1 antibodies and methods of use thereof.

There is provided a peptide of the sequence Ala-Lys-Pro-Ser-Tyr-Hyp-Hyp-Thr-Tyr-Lys, or a salt thereof, for use as a pharmaceutical. The peptide is particularly useful in the treatment of conditions characterised by inflammation, including wounds, burns, hemorrhoids, psoriasis, acne, atopic dermatitis, COPD ulcerative colitis and IPF.

Disclosed is a synthetic T cell receptor (TCR) having antigenic specificity for an HLA-A2-restricted epitope of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 E7, E711-19. Related polypeptides and proteins, as well as related nucleic acids, recombinant expression vectors, host cells, and populations of cells are also provided. Antibodies, or an antigen binding portion thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions relating to the TCRs of the invention are also provided. Also disclosed are methods of detecting the presence of a condition in a mammal and methods of treating or preventing a condition in a mammal, wherein the condition is cancer, HPV 16 infection, or HPV-positive premalignancy.

Provided herein are methods of differentiating stem cells via modulating miR-124, and the differentiated cells thereby. Also provided herein are methods for the treatment of diseases using the differentiated cells.

The present invention relates to anti-TNF alpha binding members and in particular to monovalent, high potency TNF alpha-binding antibody fragments being highly stable and soluble. Such binding members may be used in the treatment of inflammatory and other diseases as well as in diagnostics. Also provided are related nucleic acids, vectors, cells, and compositions.
