  • Publication number: 20200405815
    Abstract: The disclosure provides one-component, injectable, sustained release formulations which comprise microspheres containing active pharmaceutical ingredients (e.g., exenatide), wherein the microspheres are suspended in a non-aqueous carrier. The non-aqueous carrier can be an oil, a fractionated oil, triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, propylene glycol fatty acid diesters, and the like. The formulations offer distinct advantages of long shelf life for the stability and potency of the formulation and sustained release of active pharmaceutical ingredients to reduce the frequency of medication dosing and to increase patient compliance.

  • Patent number: 6187330
    Abstract: Compositions and devices for the controlled release delivery of a peptide or protein drug are produced by dispersing a glassy matrix phase comprising the peptide or protein drug and a thermoprotectant in a bioerodable, biocompatible polymer at a temperature that is below the glass transition temperature of the glassy matrix phase and above the melting point of the polymer. The method and composition of the invention may be employed for the local delivery of angiogenic amounts of basic fibroblast growth factor or vascular endothelial growth factor.

  • Patent number: 4300795
    Abstract: The apparatus includes a lock unit having dual eccentrics that are spring biased toward an opposing planar support flange. The lock unit is mounted so that a selected sidewall of a conventional sliding panel track is squeezed between the eccentrics and the support flange by the force of the spring. Slide stops extend from the support flange into the operative area of the track to prevent horizontal sliding movement of the panel. The apparatus further includes a lift stop which may be used in conjunction with the lock unit to prevent the sliding panel from being lifted clear of the lower track. It comprises a flat spring having a bias toward assuming a U-shaped configuration. The spring legs are spread so that the spring can be inserted into the upper panel track above the panel.
