Abstract: Provided herein are processes for manufacturing recombinant ranibizumab or a ranibizumab variant that include providing a liquid comprising recombinant ranibizumab or a ranibizumab variant that is substantially free of cells; capturing the recombinant ranibizumab or the ranibizumab variant in the liquid using an affinity chromatography column, wherein the eluate of the affinity chromatography column comprises the recombinant ranibizumab or the ranibizumab variant; purifying the recombinant ranibizumab or the ranibizumab variant in the eluate of step (b) using a first cation exchange chromatography column and buffers that have a pH of about pH 5.5 to about 7.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides novel processes for providing sterile, pre-filled syringes or injection devices for pharmaceutical compositions, including protein and biopharmaceutical formulations. In some examples, secondary packaging is performed in an aseptic environment, which removes the need for any terminal sterilization method. In some examples, the aseptic packaging method results in a sterile injection device suitable for use in ophthalmic injections.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for treating a disease associated with insulin resistance selected from a nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its sequelae, a lipodystrophic syndrome or a combination thereof with the selective PPAR? agonist, INT131 and optionally vitamin E or compositions thereof. NAFLDs that may be treated with methods and compositions of the present invention include, but are not limited to, simple nonalcoholic fatty liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Lipodystrophic syndromes that may be treated with the methods and compositions of the present invention include, but are not limited to, generalized lipodystrophy including congenital generalized lipodystrophy and acquired generalized lipodystrophy and/or partial lipodystrophy, including congenital partial lipodystrophy and acquired partial lipodystrophy, all of which may or may not include hyperlipidemia and/or hyperglycemia and may or may not include NAFLD.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for making proteins, preferably antibodies, more preferably anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha antibodies, and most preferably adalimumab. The present invention further provides methods and compositions for mammalian cell culture, preferably Chinese Hamster Ovary cells.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of producing a recombinant protein that include fed-batch culturing a mammalian cell.

Abstract: Methods of treatment of progressive supranuclear palsy or its symptoms, with PPAR? agonists, and in particular, the compound of formula (I) known as INT 131: Formula (I). Also provided are methods of treating a subject that include selecting a subject having an elevated level of neurofilament light chain protein in a sample obtained from the subject, as compared to a reference level of neurofilament light chain protein, and administering a pharmaceutical composition including a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) to the selected subject.

Abstract: The present invention relates to aqueous pharmaceutical compositions comprising a high concentration (i.e., greater than 50 milligrams per milliliter) of adalimumab (including antibody proteins considered or intended as “biosimilar” or “bio-better” variants of commercially available adalimumab) suitable for long-term storage, and methods of manufacture of the compositions; methods of their administration; and articles containing the same.
