ACTIVATION OF NEUROPEPTIDE RECEPTORS ON PLASMACYTOID DENDRITIC CELLS TO TREAT OR PREVENT OCULAR DISEASES ASSOCIATED WITH NEOVASCULARIZATION AND INFLAMMATION
The invention relates to methods and compositions for use in the treatment and prevention of ocular diseases or conditions associated with neovascularization and/or inflammation.
INJECTABLE HIGH CONCENTRATION PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING AND USE THEREOF
The present invention provides compositions comprising one or more active pharmaceutical ingredients, wherein the compositions are in the form of high solids concentration pastes capable of being injected in relatively low volumes into an animal using standard commercially available syringes. The invention also provides methods of making such compositions, particularly those compositions comprising high molecular weight active ingredients (e.g., antibodies, enzymes and other proteins and peptides) at relatively high therapeutic concentrations in the high solids concentration pastes. The invention further provides methods of using such formulations in treating, preventing and/or ameliorating certain diseases and physical disorders in animals, including humans, in need thereof. The invention also provides kits comprising the formulations of the invention and a suitable syringe, which in some aspects may be pre-loaded or pre-filled with a composition of the invention.
