Abstract: The invention relates to the improvement in the treatment of certain neural disorders/diseases, such as Parkinson's disease and other motor disorders. The invention relates to drug compositions and dosage forms comprising said drug composition; methods of manufacturing the drug compositions and dosage forms; and methods of treatment, comprising administering the drug composition and dosage form to an individual. In certain embodiments, the drug compositions and dosage forms comprise carbidopa and levodopa in a formulation suitable for once-daily administration.

Abstract: The invention features a method for treating an immunoinflammatory administering a compound of formula (I), e.g., ibudilast or KC-764, alone or in combination with a corticosteroid, tetra-substituted pyrimidopyrimidine, or other compound. The invention also features pharmaceutical compositions including the combination above for the treatment or prevention of an immunoinflammatory disorder.

Abstract: The invention features a method of treating a B-cell proliferative disorder by administering to a patient a BAR agonist, e.g., formulated for administration by a route other than inhalation (such as for oral or intravenous administration), in an amount effective to treat the B-cell proliferative disorder. The BAR agonist may be administered as a monotherapy or in combination with one or more other agents, e.g., a PDE inhibitor, an A2A receptor agonist, or an antiproliferative compound, in amounts that together are effective to treat the B-cell proliferative disorder. The invention further features pharmaceutical compositions and kits including a BAR agonist, alone or in combination with additional agents, for the treatment of a B-cell proliferative disorder.

Abstract: The invention features methods and compositions for the treatment of immunonflammatory disorders.

Abstract: The invention features a method for treating a patient diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis by systemically administering an azole and a steroid to the patient. The invention also features a pharmaceutical composition containing an azole and a steroid for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract: The invention features methods, compositions, and kits for treating an immunoinflammatory disorder, an ophthalmic disorder, a musculoskeletal disorder or pain associated therewith, a periodontal disease, or a disease or condition associated with an increased serum CRP level.

Abstract: The invention features methods, kits, and compositions for the treatment of ophthalmic disorders. The compositions include a corticosteroid in combination with a non-steroidal immunophilin-dependent immunosuppressant.

Abstract: The invention involves the treatment, prevention, and reduction of immunoinflammatory disorders involving the combination of an agent that increases the signal activity of a glucocorticoid receptor (e.g., glucocorticoid receptor agonist) and an agent that modulates the signaling activity of one or more signaling pathways selected from the NF-?B pathway, NFAT pathway, AP-1 pathway, and Elk-1 pathway such that proinflammatory cytokine secretion or production, or any other inflammatory response, is reduced. Further, screening methods are provided for identifying candidate compounds and strategies useful for treating, preventing, or reducing such conditions.

Abstract: The invention features a pharmaceutical composition that includes amoxapine and a corticosteroid.

Abstract: The invention features a method for treating a patient having a cancer or other neoplasm, by administering to the patient (i) a benzimidazole or a metabolite or analog thereof; and (ii) pentamidine or a metabolite or analog thereof simultaneously or within 14 days of each other in amounts sufficient to inhibit the growth of the neoplasm.

Abstract: The invention features a method for treating a patient having a cancer or other neoplasm, by administering to the patient (i) chlorpromazine or a metabolite or analog thereof; and (ii) pentamidine or a metabolite or analog thereof simultaneously or within 14 days of each other in amounts sufficient to inhibit the growth of the neoplasm.
