The present invention includes compositions and methods for the treatment of skin conditions by administration of a cyclolignan such as picropodophyllin and/or a derivative, metabolite, analog, prodrug, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or hydrate thereof.

The disclosure provides a topical gel formulation comprising 1-1.5 wt. % clindamycin phosphate, 2.5-3.5 wt. % benzoyl peroxide, and 0.1-0.2 wt. % adapalene, in combination with a gelling agent, a polyhydric alcohol, and water, useful in treating inflammatory skin conditions, including acne, together with methods of making and using the same.

Compositions and methods are for disclosed for treating a skin condition that results from reactive oxygen species production in skin of a subject, including applying a topical formulation that contains a lipophilic cation-mitochondrially targeted antioxidant compound and that delivers a therapeutically effective amount of the antioxidant compound to skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition or medical device comprising a fucoidan and at least one compound of formula A or B:

##STR00001##

wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently selected from the group consisting of —OH, —CH.sub.3, —CF.sub.3CH.sub.2O—, and CH.sub.3O—. Such pharmaceutical composition or medical device is notably useful for the treatment and/or prevention of a skin disorder involving excessive angiogenesis and/or fibrogenesis, such as in skin fibrosis, angiofibromas, hamartomas and periungual fibromas, skin manifestation occurring with rosacea, acne, atopic dermatitis, scleroderma, psoriasis and lupus erythematosus, and especially of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex and skin manifestation occurring with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex.

Indazole sulfonamide derivatives of formula (I), the pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof, the hydrates and/or solvates thereof, and the use of same as inverse agonists of retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma RORγt are described.

Pharmaceutical compositions including such compounds, as well as the use thereof for the topical and/or oral treatment of RORγt receptor-mediated inflammatory diseases, in particular acne, psoriasis and/or atopic dermatitis are also described.

The present invention is directed to compounds of Formula (I), which includes enantiomer and diasteromers thereof:

##STR00001##

The invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of Formula (I). Methods of making and using the compounds of Formula (I) are also within the scope of the invention.

Novel compounds, synthesis methods and use of the same in medicine and in cosmetics are disclosed. Also disclosed, are novel compounds and ligands that modulate RARs.

The present invention relates to processes and intermediates useful in the preparation of (R)-2-(7-(4-cyclopentyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyloxy)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indol-3-yl)acetic acid of Formula (Ia) and salts thereof, an S1P1 receptor modulator that is useful in the treatment of S1P1 receptor-associated disorders, for example, diseases and disorders mediated by lymphocytes, transplant rejection, autoimmune diseases and disorders, inflammatory diseases and disorders (e.g., acute and chronic inflammatory conditions), cancer, and conditions characterized by an underlying defect in vascular integrity or that are associated with angiogenesis such as may be pathologic (e.g., as may occur in inflammation, tumor development and atherosclerosis). ##STR00001##

The present invention relates to methods of treating immune disorders and/or inflammation using certain modulator compounds. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method of treating an immune and inflammatory disorders disorder by administering a composition comprising a therapeutically effective dosage of an ascaroside compound, or a mixture of ascaroside compounds, or a mixture containing at least one ascaroside.

Disclosed are a crystal form of a thieno[2,3-c]pyridazine-4(1H)-one compound, a preparation method therefor and the use thereof in the preparation of a drug as an inhibitor of ACC1 and ACC2. ##STR00001##
