TREATMENT OF NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS
The present invention is directed to a polypeptide for use in promoting neuronal growth or neuronal repair to treat a neurological disorder in a subject, wherein the polypeptide comprises: a clostridial neurotoxin light chain (L-chain) or fragment thereof; and/or a fragment of a clostridial neurotoxin heavy chain (H-chain). Additional polypeptides for use in promoting neuronal growth or neuronal repair to treat a neurological disorder in a subject are also provided, as are corresponding methods and uses.
TREATMENTS OF CANCER USING NITROUS OXIDE AND BOTULINIUM TOXIN
Embodiments of the disclosure are related to a method of treating cancer including preventative treatment comprising administering nitrous oxide and oxygen to the patient by inhalation, and/or administering a botulinum toxin to the patient by injection, wherein the latter is directed to preventative treatment.
PROTEIN FORMULATIONS AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME
The invention provides an aqueous formulation comprising water and a protein, and methods of making the same. The aqueous formulation of the invention may be a high protein formulation and/or may have low levels of conductity resulting from the low levels of ionic excipients. Also included in the invention are formulations comprising water and proteins having low osmolality.
TREATMENT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA
The present specification discloses methods of treating a psychological trauma in an individual using botulinum toxins and/or a Targeted Exocytosis Modulator, and compositions thereof.
Nucleic acid-based botulinum neurotoxin for therapeutic use
The invention relates to a botulinum neurotoxin-encoding nucleic acid for therapeutic use. The invention further relates to the transfection of skeletal muscle cells and smooth muscle cells and the glands of the skin, and of other skin cells with botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT)-encoding nucleic acids (RNA or DNA) with or without the use of a secretory signal, for therapeutic and/or cosmetic purposes.
MATERIAL AND METHOD FOR TREATING INTERNAL CAVITIES
A method of providing sustained-release topical treatment of a condition affecting an internal body cavity is provided. The method comprises administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a thermoreversible hydrogel and an active pharmaceutical ingredient to an internal body cavity of the urinary tract. After administration, the concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in urothelium of the internal body cavity is increased when compared to the concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in urothelium of the internal body cavity following administration of a control composition comprising the same dose and concentration of active pharmaceutical ingredient in water.
BOTULINUM TOXIN FORMULATIONS AND METHODS FOR INTRANASAL DELIVERY THEREOF FOR THE TREATMENT OF ALLERGIC RHINITIS
A method for intranasal delivery of a formulation comprising Botulinum toxin for the treatment of allergic rhinitis involved impregnating an absorbent tip of an applicator with the formulation, the applicator having a rigid rod having the absorbent tip at a distal end thereof, and inserting the applicator straight into a nasal cavity of a patient beneath the lower turbinates to target the nasal- or nasopharynx-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) and the eustachian tube opening zone of the nasopharynx within the nasal cavity with the absorbent tip.
TREATMENT OF MODERATE TO VERY SEVERE GLABELLAR LINES AND LATERAL CANTHAL LINES
Disclosed herein are methods of treatment of glabellar lines and lateral canthal lines using liquid botulinum neurotoxin compositions.
COMPOSITION MODULATING BOTULINUM NEUROTOXIN EFFECT
The present invention relates to a method for modulating the effect of a botulinum neurotoxin composition, that is accelerating the onset of action and/or extending the duration of action and/or enhancing the intensity of action of a botulinum neurotoxin composition, comprising adding at least one postsynaptic inhibitor of cholinergic neuronal transmission to the botulinum neurotoxin composition. The invention also relates to compositions comprising at least one postsynaptic inhibitor of cholinergic neuronal transmission and a botulinum neurotoxin, and their uses for treating aesthetic or therapeutic conditions.
