  • Patent number: 12097210
    Abstract: Applicant provides methods of treating diseases including Cushing's syndrome and hormone-sensitive cancers by concomitant administration of a glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM) and steroidogenesis inhibitors, and by concomitant administration of a GRM and CYP3A inhibitors. The GRM may be, e.g., mifepristone; the CYP3A inhibitors or steroidogenesis inhibitors (collectively “inhibitors”) may be, e.g., ketoconazole or itraconazole. Inhibitors may cause toxicity or other serious adverse reactions; concomitant administration of inhibitors with other drugs may increase the risk of such toxicity and adverse reactions due to the inhibitors and/or the other drugs. Applicant has surprisingly found that GRMs may be administered to subjects receiving inhibitors without increasing the risk of adverse reactions; for example, Applicant has found that mifepristone may be concomitantly administered with ketoconazole or itraconazole, providing safe concomitant administration of the GRM and ketoconazole or itraconazole.

  • Patent number: 11865102
    Abstract: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(IR,6R)-3-Methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3-benzenediol. Its empirical formula is C21H30O2 and its molecular weight is 314.46. CBD is a cannabinoid that naturally occurs in the Cannabis sativa L. plant. CBD is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid which is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. The present invention encompasses the surprising recognition that certain CBD preparations which are prepared from a botanical origin are more effective in treating diseases or disorders than preparations of CBD which are synthetic or purified to the extent no other impurities in the form of other cannabinoids are present. Prior CBD compositions have been prepared such that no psychoactive components, e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), remain in the final CBD preparation. Surprisingly, the absence of such minor impurities reduces the efficacy of CBD treatment.
