Publication number: 20240165209Abstract: This disclosure provides recombinant placental alkaline phosphatase and highly purified human placental alkaline phosphatase for the treatment of a chemotherapy treated cancer patient to reduce chemotherapy-induced loss of red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets as well as increase the survival of chemotherapy challenged hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, or blood cell forming progenitors. Another use of recombinant placental alkaline phosphatase or placental alkaline phosphatase for chemotherapy treated cancer patients is to enhance survival of transplanted hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells thereby promoting formation of blood cells. The novelty of this disclosure is using placental alkaline phosphatases to reduce the loss of these cells despite the presence of a highly proteolytic environment in the bone marrow created by chemotherapy.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2021Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventor: Zoltan Kiss

Publication number: 20240164845Abstract: An image processing system and method is provided. The image processing system includes a display, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores processor-executable code that when executed by the processor causes receiving an image of a region of interest of a patient with a medical catheter, tube or line disposed within the region of interest, detecting the medical tube or line within the image, generating a patient coordinate system relative to an anatomy of the patient within the image, generating a combined image by superimposing a first graphical marker on the image that indicates an end of the medical catheter, tube or line, and a second graphical marker on the image that indicates patient coordinate system, and displaying the combined image on the display. In addition, the system assesses common visualizable complications associated with CVC placement, including but not limited to hydrothorax, pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum and CVC position changes between x-rays taken at different times.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Pál Tegzes, Zita Herczeg, Hongxu Yang, Zoltán Kiss, Balázs P.

Publication number: 20230190885Abstract: This invention demonstrates that topically applied placental alkaline phosphatase dispersed in Vaselinum cholesterinatum promotes scar-free healing of acne vulgaris of bacterial origin. Other inflammatory skin conditions caused by bacterial infection and improved by placental alkaline phosphatase include nail infections as well as infections of non-healing diabetic wounds, puncture wounds, surgical wounds and incisions, burns, abrasions, lacerations, ulcers, gum disease, skin tears, or wounds caused by bites or stings. Placental alkaline phosphatase was also found to promote healing of skin lesions, with or without co-administering an antiviral drug, caused by reactivated Varicella zoster (Shingles), Herpes Simplex Virus-1 (oral herpes), or Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (vaginal/genital herpes). In all of these cases, placental alkaline phosphatase was found to significantly reduce irritation or pain associated with bacterial or viral infection and resulting skin damage.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventor: Zoltan Kiss

Patent number: 11563698Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include methods for handling packets in a communications network. In one embodiment, a method is implemented in an electronic device. The method includes at a first end of a queue in the electronic device, determining admission of a first packet to the first end of the queue based on a length of the first packet, where when the admission of the first packet would cause the queue to become full, the admission is further based on a packet value of the first packet and a data structure tracking packet value distribution of packets in the queue. The method further includes at a second end of the queue, dropping a second packet from the second end of the queue when the second packet's corresponding packet value is marked as to be dropped in the data structure upon admitting packets to the first end of the queue.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Csaba Keszei, Szilveszter Nádas, Zoltan Kiss

Patent number: 8460654Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to the use of placental alkaline phosphatase, and other members of the alkaline phosphatase family, to enhance protein synthesis in the muscle as well as the survival of non-cancerous differentiated cells in the muscle, adipose and other tissues. The ability of alkaline phosphatase to selectively enhance the survival of healthy cells and increase protein synthesis has many therapeutic applications. The use of alkaline phosphatase may prevent the loss of body weight and muscle mass typically experienced by diseased (such as cancer) or aging patients, or developing fetuses subjected to harmful conditions, or by patients who are treated with a toxic therapy including chemotherapy.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2010Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Zoltan Laboratories LLCInventor: Zoltan Kiss

Patent number: 7943606Abstract: A class of compounds commonly containing a trialkylammonium group have been synthesized and characterized as anticancer compounds. They can be used alone or in combination with other therapies to treat cancer and other cell proliferative diseases. Representative compounds of this class, N,N-diethyl-N-methyl-2-[(9-oxo-9H-thioxanthen-2-yl)methoxy]ethanaminium iodide and N,N-diethyl-N-allyl-3-(2-methyl-9H-thioxanthen-9-ylidene)-propane-1-aminium bromide, were shown in various tumor models to decrease tumor volume, enhance the effects of other chemotherapeutic agents including cisplatin, reduce chemotherapy-induced loss of body weight, and increase survival of animals co-treated with toxic amounts of cisplatin. These compounds had even greater effects on tumor volume, body weight, and survival when administered together with the human protein placental alkaline phosphatase.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2009Date of Patent: May 17, 2011Assignee: CanCure Laboratories, LLCInventor: Zoltan Kiss
