Abstract: This invention provides for an improved method for differentially diagnosing ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome. Current practice for differentially diagnosing ectopic ACTH syndrome and Cushing's Disease measures relative ACTH concentrations from the inferior petrosal venous sinus compared to fluid obtained from a periphery venous sample. This is performed before and after administration of exogenous corticotropin releasing factor, or after administration of metyrapone. This invention uses glucocorticoid receptor antagonists to induce release of endogenous CRH which stimulates ACTH to increase in patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome but not in those with Cushing's Disease.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an oral pharmaceutical composition in the form of an aqueous solution of atomoxetine as an active ingredient. The aqueous solution of atomoxetine comprises a taste-masked liquid carrier comprising peppermint, orange flavor and a viscosity agent. The combined flavors successfully masked atomoxetine hydrochloride's bitter smell and/or taste which makes it a novel palatable pharmaceutical composition. The viscosity agent improves the oral pharmaceutical composition's consistency and provides a smooth texture which makes it easy to swallow. More specifically, the oral pharmaceutical composition comprises effective amounts of: (a) atomoxetine or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; and (b) a taste-masked liquid carrier. Also provided is a method for making the aqueous solution of atomoxetine. The present disclosure also provides methods of using oral pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a subject having a disorder treatable by the administration of atomoxetine.

Abstract: Use of glu-tubulin as a biomarker for predicting the response to a compound, preferably resistance of a disease such as cancer in a subject to said compound, wherein the compound is a furazanobenzimidazole compound of general formula (I).

Abstract: The present invention provides for a novel lipokine, trans-C16:1n7-palmitoleate, which also serves as a biomarker for metabolic status. More specifically, low concentrations of trans-C16:1n7-palmitoleate the serum indicates a risk of metabolic disease. Additionally, administering trans C16:1n7-palmitoleate to a subject (via pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, or other means), positively impacts glucose metabolism.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel pharmaceutical formulations of a neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist suitable for parenteral administration including intravenous administration. Also included are formulations including both the NK-1 receptor antagonist and dexamethasone sodium phosphate. The pharmaceutical formulations are stable oil-in-water emulsions for non-oral treatment of emesis and are particularly useful for treatment of subjects undergoing highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy.
