that inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) activity, to their utility in treating and/or preventing clinical conditions including respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), to their use in therapy, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to processes for preparing such compounds.

The present invention relates to salts of budesonide 21-phosphate with β2 adrenergic agonists, preferably with formoterol, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same and the use thereof in the treatment of respiratory inflammatory pathologies, obstructive pathologies and allergen-induced airway dysfunctions. The invention further relates to the process for preparing said salts.

The present invention relates to salts of budesonide 21-phosphate with β2 adrenergic agonists, preferably with formoterol, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same and the use thereof in the treatment of respiratory inflammatory pathologies, obstructive pathologies and allergen-induced airway dysfunctions. The invention further relates to the process for preparing said salts.

The present invention relates to polypeptides directed against or specifically binding to C—X—C Motif chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2) and in particular to polypeptides capable of modulating signal transduction from CXCR2. The invention also relates to nucleic acids, vectors and host cells capable of expressing the polypeptides of the invention, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the polypeptides and uses of said polypeptides and compositions for treatment of diseases involving aberrant functioning of CXCR2.

The present invention relates to dual delta (δ) and gamma (γ) PI3K protein kinase modulators, methods of preparing them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and methods of treatment, prevention and/or amelioration of Pi3K kinase mediated diseases or disorders with them.

Provided are a crystal of a tricyclic compound as shown in formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a preparation method therefor, and the use thereof in preparing a drug for treating PDE3- and/or PDE4-related diseases.

Methods for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in a patient are disclosed. In the methods, a patient having COPD is selected for treatment based on the patient's peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) and percent predicted force expiratory volume in one second (FEV.sub.1); and a bronchodilator is administered to the selected patient using a nebulizer. Administration of a bronchodilator to patients having low PIFR and a percent predicted FEV.sub.1 less than 50 percent using a nebulizer as the inhalation delivery device provides significantly greater improvements in trough FEV.sub.1 and trough forced vital capacity (FVC) compared to administration of a bronchodilator to such patients using a dry powder inhaler.

The present invention relates to novel “reverse amide” compounds comprising a zinc chelator group, and the use of such compounds in the inhibition of HDAC6 and in the treatment of various diseases, disorders or conditions related to HDAC6.

This invention relates to a fixed-dose dry powder inhalation formulation comprising fluticasone propionate and albuterol sulfate, together with an α-lactose monohydrate carrier. In the formulation, the albuterol sulfate stabilises fluticasone propionate.

A system for treating or providing prophylaxes against a pulmonary infection is disclosed comprising: a) a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a mixture of free antiinfective and antiinfective encapsulated in a lipid-based composition, and b) an inhalation delivery device. A method for providing prophylaxis against a pulmonary infection in a patient and a method of reducing the loss of antiinfective encapsulated in a lipid-based composition upon nebulization comprising administering an aerosolized pharmaceutical formulation comprising a mixture of free antiinfective and antiinfective encapsulated in a lipid-based composition is also disclosed.
