Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for reducing testosterone levels by reduction of luteinizing hormone (LH) or independent of LH levels in a male subject and methods of treating, suppressing, reducing the incidence, reducing the severity, or inhibiting prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and palliative treatment of prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The compounds of this invention suppress free or total testosterone levels to castrate levels which may be used to treat prostate cancer, advanced prostate cancer, and CRPC without causing bone loss, decreased bone mineral density, increased risk of bone fractures, increased body fat, hot flashes and/or gynecomastia.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a method of treating OCD or an Obsessive-Compulsive Spectrum Disorder (OCSD), such as BDD or ADHD, using a high-dose glycine treatment.
Abstract: The method of treating elevated blood levels of iPTH by increasing or maintaining blood concentrations of both 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D in a patient by administering, as necessary, both Vitamin D repletion and Vitamin D hormone replacement therapies, is disclosed. The blood concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are increased to and maintained at or above 30 ng/mL, and blood concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D are increased to or maintained within a patient's normal historical physiological range for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D without causing substantially increased risk of hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia or over suppression of plasma iPTH in the patient. The blood levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are maintained at or above 30 ng/mL between doses of Vitamin D repletion therapies, and the blood levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D are maintained in the patient's normal historical physiological range between doses of Vitamin D hormone replacement therapies.

Abstract: The present invention provides for bioavailable oral dosage forms containing esters of 17-hydroxyprogesterone as well as related methods. The oral dosage forms can be formulated for pregnancy support and can include a therapeutically effective amount of an ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In another embodiment, a pharmaceutically acceptable oral dosage form for pregnancy support is provided. The pharmaceutically acceptable oral dosage can include a therapeutically effective amount of an ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The oral dosage form can, when measured using a USP Type-II dissolution apparatus in 900 mL of deionized water with 0.5 (w/v) of sodium lauryl sulfate at 50 RPM at 37° C., release at least 20 wt % of the dose of the ester of 17-hydroxyprogesterone after 60 minutes, or in the alternative release at least 20 wt % more after 60 minutes than an equivalently dosed oral dosage form without the carrier.
Abstract: The invention relates to iron(III) complex compounds and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them for the use as medicaments, in particular for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of iron deficiency symptoms and iron deficiency anemias.

Abstract: The present application relates to novel 1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[1,2-b]pyrazole derivatives, to processes for their preparation, to their use for the treatment and/or prevention of diseases and to their use for preparing medicaments for the treatment and/or prevention of diseases, in particular angiogenic disorders and hyperproliferative disorders, where neovascularization plays a role, such as, for example, neoplastic disorders and tumor disorders. Such treatments can be carried out as monotherapy or else in combination with other medicaments or further therapeutic measures.
Abstract: Derivatives of celecoxib that lack cyclooxygenase inhibitory activity but have improved PDE5 inhibitory activity are provided along with pharmaceutical compositions containing them for the treatment or prevention of cancer. Such compounds are expected to have reduced toxicity compared with celecoxib and other cyclooxygenase inhibitors, and greater efficacy compared with conventional PDE5 inhibitors. Derivatives of celecoxib are also suitable for treating chronic inflammatory conditions, erectile dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, congestive heart failure, and enhancement of cognitive function.
