Abstract: The present invention provides methods for preventing the adverse effects of transfusing a patient with blood or blood products compromised by storage lesion. The methods include administering to a patient a pharmaceutical composition comprising an effective amount of a polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene copolymer and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The safety and effectiveness of transfusing blood with storage lesion can be increased using the methods of the invention.
Abstract: The present invention provides injectable oil-in-water emulsions of taxoid drugs or other water insoluble drugs. The present invention also provides methods for preparing and using such oil-in-water emulsions.
Abstract: The present invention provides antiviral compositions that comprise one or more of an ionic multivalent metal component, a cationic polymer, and a cationic surfactant. The present invention also provides methods for making and using such antiviral compositions.
Abstract: The present invention provides vitamin E succinate (VES)-stabilized compositions, methods for the preparation thereof and methods useful for the in vivo delivery of substantially water insoluble and optionally chemically unstable pharmacologically active agents (such as docetaxel).
