Abstract: Novel methods for preventing, reducing the risk of development of, and for treating hypercoagulopathy in Cushing's syndrome patients with elevated risk of developing hypercoagulopathy are disclosed. The methods are further useful to prevent, to reduce the risk of developing, and to treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and venous thromboembolism (VTE); and to treat inflammatory states. The methods include: administering heteroaryl-ketone fused azadecalin glucocorticoid receptor modulator (HKGRM) to a Cushing's syndrome patient at risk of developing hypercoagulopathy, thereby treating hypercoagulopathy. Methods of preventing, reducing risk of developing, and of treating DVT, PR, or VTE in a Cushing's syndrome patient comprise administering a HKGRM to the patient.

Abstract: Methods for administering compounds provide a rapid treatment for sickle cell disease (SCD) to inhibit or reverse red blood cell sickling. The compounds are a group of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) analogs modified to increase water-solubility. The compounds can be formulated in an aqueous carrier and administered intravenously for immediate uptake into red blood cells (RBCs) within hours, rather than days or weeks. In vitro experiments demonstrated rapid uptake into RBCs and increased O2 affinity of HbS to an equilibrium point within 30 to 90 minutes. The compounds have a desired level of safety as well as a short half-life, both of which are compatible with acute usage. Thus, the methods of treatment rapidly achieve therapeutic steady-state drug levels, making it possible to deliver a treatment in critical emergency care situations to prevent, reverse and otherwise treat acute sickling or anemia.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds, compositions thereof, and methods of using the same.
