Disclosed herein, inter alia, are compositions and methods of modulating macrophage activity. Provided is a method of treating a disease (e.g., a macrophage-associated disease, autoimmune disease, inflammatory disease, or a cancer of an organ in the intraperitoneal cavity), the method including intraperitoneally administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a nanoparticle composition or pharmaceutical composition. Provided is a silica nanoparticle non-covalently bound to a plurality of nucleic acids, wherein the silica nanoparticle has a net positive charge in the absence of the plurality of nucleic acids. Provided is a pharmaceutical composition including a nanoparticle composition as described herein, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

Disclosed are compositions and formulations of non-porcine lipase and methods of treatment and manufacture thereof.

Compositions and kits for oral administration of a phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor and one or more additional active agents that reduces or eliminates a side effect associated with the PDE4 inhibitor are provided. Also provided are methods for use of these compositions and kits for treating conditions treatable with a PDE4 inhibitor therapy and for increasing patient compliance with treatment with PDE4 inhibitors.

Pharmaceutical compositions and stable nano-suspensions comprising mifepristone and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, which exhibit enhanced bioavailability compared to the currently marketed or commercially available formulations. Manufacturing process and methods of use are also provided. The pharmaceutical compositions are used for prevention, treatment or prophylaxis of disorders in human patients in need thereof. Oral pharmaceutical compositions of mifepristone, methods for their administration, processes for thei r production, and use of these compositions are described for the treatment of diseases for which mifepristone is indicated.

The present invention relates to a new delivery system for nutritional ingredients (nutraceuticals). These nutritional ingredients are useful for gut and metabolic health in monogastric animals, especially in humans.

The invention is directed to a biodegradable, phase separated, thermoplastic multi-block copolymer, to a process for preparing a biodegradable, phase separated, thermoplastic multi-block copolymer, to the use of a biodegradable, semi-crystalline, phase separated, thermoplastic multi-block copolymer, and to a composition for the delivery of at least one biologically active compound to a host.

The biodegradable, phase separated, thermoplastic multi-block copolymer of the invention comprises at least one amorphous hydrolysable pre-polymer (A) segment and at least one semi-crystalline hydrolysable pre-polymer (B) segment, wherein said multi-block copolymer under physiological conditions has a T.sub.g of 37° C. or less and a T.sub.m of 50-110° C.; the segments are linked by a multifunctional chain extender; the segments are randomly distributed over the polymer chain; and the pre-polymer (B) segment comprises a X-Y-X tri-block, wherein Y is a polymerisation initiator, and X is a poly(p-dioxanone) segment with a block length expressed in p-dioxanone monomer units of 7 or more.

Provided is a method for producing particles including: preparing a dispersion liquid with Liquid A and Liquid B, where Liquid A is a solution containing a physiologically active substance, and Liquid B is a solution containing a base material and a surfactant; and forming particles from the dispersion liquid.
