Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating or ameliorating hypercholemia or a cholestatic liver disease by administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an Apical Sodium-dependent Bile Acid Transporter Inhibitor (ASBTI) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Also provided are methods for treating or ameliorating a liver disease, decreasing the levels of serum bile acids or hepatic bile acids, treating or ameliorating pruritis, reducing liver enzymes, or reducing bilirubin comprising administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of ASBTI or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating or ameliorating Barrett's esophagus by administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an Apical Sodium-dependent Bile Acid Transporter Inhibitor (ASBTI) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Provided herein are methods of treating or ameliorating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an ASBTI or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Also provided are methods for treating or ameliorating symptoms or complications associated with Barrett's esophagus or GERD comprising administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of ASBTI or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating or ameliorating primary sclerosing cholangitis and inflammatory bowel disease by administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an Apical Sodium-dependent Bile Acid Transporter Inhibitor (ASBTI) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Also provided are methods for treating or ameliorating primary sclerosing cholangitis comprising administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of ASBTI or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: Provided herein are pediatric dosage forms for use in the treatment of a pediatric cholestatic liver disease by non-systemically administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of the pediatric dosage form comprising an Apical Sodium-dependent Bile Acid Transporter Inhibitor (ASBTI) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Also provided are said pediatric dosage form for use in the treatment of a pediatric liver disease, for use in decreasing the levels of serum bile acids or hepatic bile acids, for use in the treatment of pruritis, for use in reducing liver enzymes or bilirubin comprising non-systemically administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a pediatric formulation comprising an ASBTI or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: Methods for reducing gastric motility and delaying gastric emptying for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes are disclosed which comprise administration of an effective amount of an exendin or an exendin agonist.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions comprising bile acid transport inhibitors and/or enteroendocrine peptide enhancing agents and/or FXR agonists for the treatment of pancreatitis or prevention of pancreatitis.

Abstract: Methods for treating conditions or disorders which can be alleviated by reducing food intake are disclosed which comprise administration of an effective amount of an exendin or an exendin agonist, alone or in conjunction with other compounds or compositions that affect satiety. The methods are useful for treating conditions or disorders, including obesity, Type II diabetes, eating disorders, and insulin-resistance syndrome. The methods are also useful for lowering the plasma glucose level, lowering the plasma lipid level, reducing the cardiac risk, reducing the appetite, and reducing the weight of subjects. Pharmaceutical compositions for use in the methods of the invention are also disclosed.
