PYRAZOLO[1,5-a]PYRIMIDINYL CARBOXAMIDE COMPOUNDS AND THEIR USE IN THE TREATMENT OF MEDICAL DISORDERS
The invention provides substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidinyl carboxamide and related organic compounds, compositions containing such compounds, medical kits, and methods for using such compounds and compositions to treat medical disorders, e.g., Gaucher disease, Parkinson's disease, Lewy body disease, dementia, or multiple system atrophy, in a patient. Exemplary substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidinyl carboxamide compounds described herein include 2-heterocyclyl-4-alkyl-pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide compounds and variants thereof.
INJECTABLE CARBAMAZEPINE COMPOSITION ESSENTIALLY FREE OF 10-BROMO-CARBAMAZEPINE
An injectable pharmaceutical composition comprising carbamazepine and sulfobutylether-7-β-cyclodextrin, wherein said composition is essentially free of 10-Br-carbamazepine, is disclosed. Methods for the manufacture of said composition and methods for treatment of disease using said composition are also disclosed.
Compositions and methods for treating seizure-induced sudden death
5-HT receptor agonists are useful in the treatment of a variety of diseases. Provided herein are methods of reducing the incidence and/or severity of seizures in a human patient using a 5-HT receptor agonist, such as, for example, a 5-HT4 agonist (e.g., fenfluramine). Methods of treating epilepsy or epileptic encephalopathy, and/or reducing, ameliorating or eliminating incidence of SUDEP in a subject diagnosed with epilepsy by administering a 5-HT4 agonist (e.g., fenfluramine) to a subject in need thereof are provided. Pharmaceutical compositions for use in practicing the subject methods are also provided.

METHODS OF TREATMENT OF TUBEROUS SCLEROSIS COMPLEX
Provided herein are methods of treating tuberous sclerosis complex in a subject in need thereof by administering to the subject compositions comprising an mGlu5 negative allosteric modulator (NAM), having the structure of Formula I:
##STR00001##
S1P RECEPTOR MODULATORS
The current invention is based on the determination that a S1P receptor modulator compound of formula (I):
##STR00001##
decreases the heart rate of a subject to which it is administered by about 5 beats/min or less daily, or about 4 beats/min or less daily, or about 3 beats/min or less daily, or about 2 beats/min or less daily, wherein the S1P receptor modulator is administered at an initial daily dosage which is substantially the same as the standard daily therapeutic dosage.
NANOBODIES AGAINST TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR-ALPHA
The present invention relates to improved Nanobodies™ against Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), as well as to polypeptides comprising or essentially consisting of one or more of such Nanobodies. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding such Nanobodies and polypeptides; to methods for preparing such Nanobodies and polypeptides; to host cells expressing or capable of expressing such Nanobodies or polypeptides; to compositions comprising such Nanobodies, polypeptides, nucleic acids or host cells; and to uses of such Nanobodies, such polypeptides, such nucleic acids, such host cells or such compositions, in particular for prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes, such as the prophylactic, therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR IMPROVING COGNITIVE FUNCTION
This invention relates to methods and compositions for treating central nervous system (CNS) disorders with cognitive impairment.
