Patent number: 10239890Abstract: Broad spectrum beta-lactamase inhibitors. Certain inhibitors also exhibit potent antibiotic activity in addition to beta-lactamase inhibition. Compounds of the invention are designed such that on cleavage of the beta-lactam ring reactive moieties are generated which can inactivate beta-lactamase. Also provided are methods of making beta-lactamase inhibitors and beta-lactam antibiotics exhibiting such inhibition. Additionally provided are pharmaceutical compositions for treatment or prevention of bacterial infections and methods of treatment of such infections.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2018Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Gladius Pharmaceuticals CorporationInventors: Larry Sutton, Sophia Yu

Patent number: 10172720Abstract: Tissue spacer implants and surgical methods for inserting the implants are disclosed. The implants may include a first cylindrical body with an outer surface, an axially extending hole, and a first end, a second cylindrical body with an outer surface and an axially extending hole, and an adjustment member with an outer surface, an axial hole, and at least one helical slot. The adjustment member axial hole may be adapted to receive the first cylindrical body and the adjustment member may be configured to be inserted into the axially extending hole of second cylindrical body. The implants may also include a travel mechanism for engaging the first cylindrical body, adjustment member, and second cylindrical body along the at least one helical slot to maintain a space between two bodies of tissue.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2017Date of Patent: January 8, 2019Assignee: Medivest, LLCInventors: Ross Nichols, Brian G.

Patent number: 8883772Abstract: Broad spectrum beta-lactamase inhibitors. Certain inhibitors also exhibit potent antibiotic activity in addition to beta-lactamase inhibition. Compounds of the invention are designed such that on cleavage of the beta-lactam ring reactive moieties are generated which can inactivate beta-lactamase. Compounds of the invention include those of formula: and pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof where variables Z, Y, M, y, n, R, R4, R5, R1 and R2 are as defined in the specification. M most generally represents a chemical moiety which is in conjugation with the nitrogen of the core beta-lactam ring system of the compound, such that one or more reactive species, e.g., electrophilic or nucleophilic sites are generated on modification of M which is initiated by cleavage of the beta-lactam ring. Also provided are methods of making beta-lactamase inhibitors and beta-lactam antibiotics exhibiting such inhibition.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2008Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Sopharmia, Inc.Inventors: Larry Sutton, Sophia Yu
