  • Publication number: 20140296300
    Abstract: The instant invention relates to a process for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition in sustained-release tablet form comprising from 600 milligrams to 2400 milligrams of Pirfenidone (PFD), in such a way that the drug is bioavailable during an extended period of time of 12 hours from its administration. In this way, the anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory action of the drug Pirfenidone is optimized. Moreover, the instant invention offers advantages and a higher therapeutic efficacy compared to other pharmaceutical forms of Pirfenidone for oral administration and its therapeutic application in the regression of chronic renal failure secondary to primary glomerulosclerosis; it shows a better activity with regard to the reduction and/or regression of deleterious effects in breast capsular contracture observed after the surgical implantation of breast implants in humans and has an important anti-TNF-? and anti-TGF-?1 action for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis.

  • Publication number: 20140294931
    Abstract: Thyroid hormone antagonists and their nanoparticle formulations (Nanotetrac™ or Nanotriac™) act at a cell surface receptor to block angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation. The complex anti-angiogenic performs actions on specific cytokines and chemokines. Thyroid hormone antagonists inhibit expression in tumor cells of cytokine genes, e.g., specific interleukins, and chemokine genes, such as fractalkine (CX3CL1), and chemokine receptor genes (CX3CR1) that are targets in the development of inflammation-suppressant drugs. This application discloses a novel composition of Tetra or Tri-iodothyroacetic acid (tetrac or triac), other thyroid partial agonists or antagonists and their nanoparticle formulations conjugated to polymers and encapsulating non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids, and/or polyphenols for the management of various acute and chronic inflammatory disorders ranging from neurological, vascular, and musculoskeletal disorders.

  • Patent number: 8846722
    Abstract: Methods and formulations for treating animal ectoparasites, effective against parasites such as fleas and ticks are provided. The methods comprise topically co-administering a non-mobile insect growth regulator and a mobile insect growth regulator to the animal. Parasiticidal formulations for treating animal ectoparasites are also provided, which can be safe to use and avoid the many common deleterious side effects of conventional topical formulations. The topical formulations comprise a combination of two insect growth regulators, a non-mobile insect growth regulator and a mobile insect growth regulator. The topical formulation can be packaged with the two insect growth regulators together or packaged to prevent mixing of the two insect growth regulators prior to administering the topical insecticide formulation to the animal.
