In some embodiments, the combination of meloxicam and rizatriptan may be administered in a manner that results in a Tmax of meloxicam of 3 hours or less.

Abstract: The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for treating ischemic stroke in humans, using a tetrafluorobenzyl derivative of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof conjointly with a thrombolytic drug, endovascular thrombectomy, or both (e.g., endovascular thrombectomy and a thrombolytic drug). Administration of a tetrafluorobenzyl derivative of formula (I) or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt can reduce reperfusion injury and other adverse events in patients conjointly receiving a thrombolytic drug, endovascular thrombectomy, or endovascular thrombectomy with a thrombolytic drug.

Abstract: Circulating free RNA (cfRNA) is used for monitoring status and/or treatment response for neural tumors, and especially glioma, glioblastoma, and neuroblastoma. Particularly preferred cfRNAs include those that encode a marker that is specific to a neural tumor, but also markers that are specific to DNA repair status and/or immune status.

Abstract: A composition comprising one or more polyphenols, such as oleuropein, rutin, curcumin or quercetin, can treat or prevent sarcopenia, reduce a loss of muscle functionality (e.g. muscle strength, gait speed, etc.), increase muscle functionality, and/or improve recovery of muscle functionality after muscle atrophy. The composition can be administered to an individual who is elderly and/or frail.

Abstract: The present invention provides, inter alia, methods for treating or ameliorating the effects of a disorder, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, by increasing or decreasing proline levels. Further provided are methods of predicting and monitoring the clinical response in a patient, and diagnostic systems for identifying a patient likely to benefit from proline modulation.

Abstract: Described herein are methods for distributing a combination of a cell division inhibitor (e.g., temsirolimus or paclitaxel) and dexamethasone to a tissue surrounding a blood vessel for treating vascular diseases. Also disclosed are injectable compositions of a cell division inhibitor (e.g., temsirolimus or paclitaxel) and dexamethasone for delivery into the tissue surrounding a blood vessel for treating vascular diseases.

Abstract: The present disclosures are directed to chlorinated tetralin compounds and pharmaceutical compositions.

Abstract: Preparations and formulations capable of crossing and incorporating into a membrane of a cell or an organelle or an exosome are described. Methods of treatments utilizing the preparations and formulations are also described.

Abstract: Methods of reducing chemotherapy-induced metastasis, or chemotherapy-induced cancer cell dissemination, for patients subject to chemotherapy using Tie-2 inhibitors. Methods of reducing chemotherapy-induced metastasis, or chemotherapy-induced cancer cell dissemination, for patients subject to chemotherapy using inhibitors of Mena expression and/or function are also provided.

Abstract: This invention provides novel compositions comprising an anti-inflammatory agent and a mydriatic agent suitable for intraocular use, particularly ketorolac or pharmaceutically salts thereof and phenylephrine or pharmaceutically salts thereof, which are free of any buffering agent and yet, surprisingly, maintain stability for significant periods of time (e.g., at least about 3 months). The present invention also relates to a process of preparing such compositions and use thereof, e.g., in combination with intraocular ophthalmologic irrigation solutions.

Abstract: Subject of the present invention is a diluted anesthetic solution, to be used cold, comprising the association of two different local anesthetics, one with a short duration of action and the other with a long duration of action and optionally in association with one or more adjuvant drugs having antibiotic, antifibrinolytic or antitumor action. With this association it is possible to prolong up to 150 m? duration of action in addition to offering better management of perioperative problems both as a request for analgesic drugs for post-operative pain, but also as a support to alleviate and reduce complications in some way connected to certain surgical procedures. The invention concerns also specific packaging with specific formulations, such as to make the immediate use of the mixture itself possible for different interventions.

Abstract: Presented herein are methods for treating bile acid diarrhea, short bowel syndrome (SBS), and cholecystectomy-associated diarrhea by administering to a patient in need thereof, an inhibitor of chloride-ion transport in an amount sufficient to treat diarrhea. In particular embodiments, infants, and juveniles with SBS are treated with an inhibitor of chloride-ion transport in an amount sufficient to treat diarrhea. Treatment of diarrhea includes the treatment of the diarrhea as well as the pain, abdominal discomfort and other symptoms associated with diarrhea. In one embodiment, the inhibitor of chloride-ion transport is crofelemer.

Abstract: The use of a Wnt inhibitor Wnt-C59 in the preparation of a drug for treating SCN5A mutation-induced dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is provided. With SCN5A genotype detection as a breakthrough point, a Wnt pathway-specific inhibitor Wnt-C59 is used to inhibit the abnormal activation of the Wnt?-Catenin pathway caused by SCN5A gene mutation, thereby improving the prognosis of cardiac function in a patient with SCN5A gene mutation-induced DCM. In experiments, aging and adriamycin-induced DCM models are constructed, and the therapeutic effect of Wnt-C59 on DCM is detected through indexes such as changes in cardiac function and activation of related signal molecules, which provides a theoretical basis for use of Wnt-C59 in the clinical treatment of DCM. A new treatment method for SCN5A mutation-induced DCM is provided to bring dawn to such patients and has promising application prospects.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composition comprising a therapeutic agent and a C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) antagonist, and methods for using the same. Compositions and methods of the invention can be used to treat cancer, viral infection, immune disorders (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis), pulmonary fibrosis, or any other clinical condition associated with abnormal expression (e.g., overexpression and/or upregulation) of CXCR4. Compounds of the invention can also be used in stem cell therapeutics.
