The present invention is directed to novel neuro-attenuating norketamine (NANKET) compounds according to any one of formulas (I—shown below), (I-A) and (I-B), or any of the compounds described in Tables A-D, or in any of the Examples provided herein, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, novel pharmaceutical formulations and novel methods of uses thereof. The present invention also features novel oral neuro-attenuating ketamine (NAKET) and neuro-attenuating norketamine (NANKET) modified-release pharmaceutical formulations, and novel methods of administration thereof, which ensure the steady release of a therapeutically effective amount of ketamine, norketamine, or derivatives thereof from the oral modified-release pharmaceutical formulations without neurologically toxic spikes in plasma concentration of the ketamine, norketamine, or derivatives during the release periods. ##STR00001##

The present invention provides compounds and compositions thereof which are useful as inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase and which exhibit desirable characteristics for the same.

In part, the present disclosure relates methods for treating, preventing, or reducing the severity of a myeloproliferative disorder (e.g., polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and myelofibrosis) or one or more complications of a myeloproliferative disorder. The present disclosure further relates methods for treating, preventing, or reducing the severity of a Janus kinase-associated disorder or one or more complications of a Janus kinase-associated disorder. In certain aspects the disclosure provides TβRII antagonists for treating, preventing, or reducing the severity of a myeloproliferative disorder (e.g., polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and myelofibrosis) or a Janus kinase-associated disorder or one or more complications of a myeloproliferative disorder or a Janus kinase-associated disorder.

Disclosed are compounds having potency in the modulation of NMDA receptor activity. Such compounds can be used in the treatment of conditions such as depression and related disorders. Orally delivered formulations and other pharmaceutically acceptable delivery forms of the compounds, including intravenous formulations, are also disclosed.

The present invention is directed to antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof having binding specificity for PACAP. The antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof comprise the sequences of the V.sub.H, V.sub.L, and CDR polypeptides described herein, and the polynucleotides encoding them. Antibodies and antigen binding fragments described herein bind to and/or compete for binding to the same linear or conformational epitope(s) on human PACAP as an anti-PACAP antibody. The invention contemplates conjugates of anti-PACAP antibodies and binding fragments thereof conjugated to one or more functional or detectable moieties. Methods of making said anti-PACAP antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof are also contemplated. Other embodiments of the invention contemplate using anti-PACAP antibodies, and binding fragments thereof, for the diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of diseases and disorders associated with PACAP and conditions where antagonism of PACAP-related activities, such as vasodilation, photophobia, mast cell degranulation, and/or neuronal activation, would be therapeutically beneficial.

Described is an antagonist of a mammalian P2X7R for use in the treatment of a hyperinflammatory syndrome in a mammalian patient, by primary lymph node targeted administration of the said P2X7R antagonist in the said patient to a concentration in the said targeted lymph nodes that is above the maximal tolerable plasma level of the said antagonist in the said mammal.

This invention provides novel injectable compositions comprising botulinum toxin that may be administered to a subject for various therapeutic, aesthetic and/or cosmetic purposes. The injectable compositions contemplated by the invention exhibit one or more advantages over conventional botulinum toxin formulations, including reduced antigenicity, a reduced tendency to undergo unwanted localized diffusion following injection, increased duration of clinical efficacy or enhanced potency relative, faster onset of clinical efficacy, and/or improved stability.
