The Application describes a new target for the treatment of pain and identifies suitable compounds for use in the invention.

The present disclosure provides bifunctional compounds of Formula (I), ##STR00001##
and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, isotopic forms, isolated stereoisomers, or mixtures of stereoisomers thereof, as IRAK4 degraders via ubiquitin proteasome pathway, and method for treating diseases modulated by IRAK4.

Formulations and methods are provided for the treatment of pain, and neuropathic pain in particular. The formulations are eutectic mixtures of a capsaicinoid and a local anesthetic agent and/or an anti-pruritic agent.

Sustained release oral dosage forms of a gabapentin prodrug, 1-{[-isobutanoyloxyethoxy)carbonyl]aminomethyl}-1-cyclohexane acetic acid, are disclosed. The dosage forms are useful for treating or preventing diseases and disorders for which gabapentin is therapeutically effective.

The invention relates to a compound of formula (I)

##STR00001##

wherein A and R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 are defined as in the description and in the claims. The compound of formula (I) can be used as a medicament.

The disclosure relates to inhibitors of USP7 inhibitors useful in the treatment of cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, immunological disorders, inflammatory disorders, cardiovascular diseases, ischemic diseases, viral infections and diseases, and bacterial infections and diseases, having the Formula: ##STR00001##
where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.5, R.sub.5, X.sub.1, X.sub.2, n, and m are described herein.

There are described ROR modulators of the formula (I),

##STR00001##

and formula (II)

##STR00002##

or stereoisomers, tautomers, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs thereof, wherein all substituents are defined herein. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Such compounds and compositions are useful in methods for modulating ROR activity in a cell and methods for treating a subject suffering from a disease or disorder in which the subject would therapeutically benefit from modulation of ROR activity, for example, autoimmune and/or inflammatory disorders.

The invention feature methods and compositions for treating hematopoietic disorders, inflammatory conditions, and cancer and providing stem cell therapy in a mammal.
