In an embodiment of the invention, a composition for treating a cell population comprises an Affinity Medicant Conjugate (AMC). The medicant moiety can be a toxin including an acylfulvene or a drug moiety. The affinity moiety can be an antibody, a binding protein, a steroid, a lipid, a growth factor, a protein, a peptide or non peptidic. The affinity moiety can be covalently bound to the medicant via a linker. Novel linkers that can be directed to cysteine, arginine or lysine residues based on solution pH allow greater flexibility in preserving and/or generating specific epitopes in the AMC.

Described herein are compositions and techniques related to generation and therapeutic application of artificial synapses. Artificial synapses are engineered extracellular vesicles, including exosomes, which incorporate sticky binders on their surface to anchor signaling domains against biological targets, such as receptors. These engineered additives can be organized in genetic vector constructs, expressed in mammalian cells, wherein the sticky binders attach to extracellular vesicles such as exosomes, thereby presenting their joined signaling domains which are rapidly taken up by recipient cells. Artificial synapses adopt the hallmark biophysical and biochemical features of extracellular vesicles, allowing for rapid deployment and scale-up. Importantly, this strategy can allow for kinetically favorable signal generation and signal propagation. This includes, for example, increasing density of agonist presentation to support receptor clustering—an onerous barrier for traditional receptor targeting strategies.

The present invention pertains to: a p-boronophenylalanine derivative that comprises a polymer to which a group represented by formula (I) is linked directly or via a linker; a composition containing same; and a kit for producing said derivative and composition.

A particulate, modified release barrier coated drug-cation exchange resin complex comprising a core composed of a drug complexed with a pharmaceutically acceptable ion-exchange resin is provided. Methods of making and products containing this coated complex are described.

One aspect of the invention provides polymer conjugated MetAP2 inhibitors. While not being bound by any particular theory, it is believed that coupling the MetAP2 inhibitory core via the linkers described herein provides compounds with superior efficacy to the parent small molecules and superior pharmacokinetic profiles. In one aspect of the invention, the polymer conjugated MetAP2 inhibitors are useful in methods of treating disease, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a polymer conjugated MetAP2 inhibitor.

The present invention relates to extended release compositions of an amino-C2-C6-alkyl nitrate and of pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in particular 2-aminoethyl nitrate, and to fixed dose combinations with further pharmaceutically active drug substances. 2-Aminoethyl nitrate does not provoke nitrate tolerance, but has a very short half life in physiological systems.

Described are stable topical formulations useful in the treatment of viral wart infection, demodex infection and bacterial infection of the skin, and genitalia and the method of treating viral wart infection, demodex infection and bacterial infection of the skin, and genitalia with said compositions.
