In certain embodiments the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a CSF-IR inhibitor together with one or more of such additional active agents.

Abstract: A method of determining the susceptibility of a cancer in a subject to treatment with an antimetabolite includes obtaining a sample of cancer cells from the subject, measuring the level of UDG expression in the cancer cells, and comparing the measured levels of UDG expression in the cancer cells to a control level.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods for improving the quality of the meibum composition of the meibomian glands to enhance or improve the lipid layer of the tear and increase tear breakup time by way of elevating the omega-3 index in patients suffering from symptoms of dry eye, posterior blepharitis, and/or meibomian gland dysfunction. The methods comprise administering a supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids to a patient having an inflamed meibomian gland so as to facilitate an increase in the amount of omega-3's acting as an anti-inflammatory and, respectively, decrease the amount of omega-6's (arachidonic acid) acting as an inflammatory in the composition of the meibum, thereby normalizing the lipid layer of the tear and effectively reducing the associated symptoms. In certain embodiments, the supplementation of omega-3's comprises the esterified or re-esterified triglyceride form.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of treating anxiety or depression, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound selected from the group consisting of 2-ethyl-5-methyl-3,3-diphenyl-1-pyrroline (EMDP), 2-ethylidene-1,5-dimethyl-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidine (EDDP), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an NSAID such as meloxicam and/or rizatriptan in combination with a cyclodextrin and/or a carbonate or a bicarbonate. These compositions may be orally administered, for example, to improve the bioavailability or pharmacokinetics of the NSAID for the treatment of pain such as migraine, arthritis, allodynia, and other conditions. Also disclosed herein are methods of treating pain, such as migraine, allodynia, comprising administering meloxicam and rizatriptan to a human being suffering from pain, such as migraine, allodynia. For migraine, these methods may be particularly useful when the meloxicam and rizatriptan are administered while the human being is suffering from an acute attack of migraine pain or migraine aura. 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 is related to a method for cancer treatment comprising a step of administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising ferrous amino acid chelate and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. By means of amino acid chelating to ferrous and maintaining chelating state through the stomach, the pharmaceutical composition in accordance with the present invention would not cause any weight variation, and is suitable for inhibiting or treating cancer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of reducing muscle contraction in a diaphragm or peripheral muscle(s) of a patient sufficient to permit a surgical procedure. The methods may comprise the step of administering an oxime or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to a subject in need thereof in an amount sufficient to achieve said reduced muscle contraction/neuromuscular blockade. Kits and articles of manufacture comprising a container having a label and a composition are also disclosed.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to dosage forms containing an enantiomerically enriched or pure bupropion such as enantiomeric excess of (S)-bupropion, enantiomerically enriched (S)-bupropion, or enantiomerically pure (S)-bupropion and methods of using these dosage forms. These dosage forms may be administered to human beings in a reduced amount as compared to the amount of racemic bupropion that would be administered in the same situation.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of preventing or reducing weight gain in a subject in need thereof by administering 2-acetylcyclopentane-1,3-dione (ACPD).

Abstract: A method of treating symptoms of a subtype of epilepsy, e.g., Dravet syndrome, in a patient diagnosed with a subtype of epilepsy, by administering to the patient an effective dose of a fenfluramine formulation in combination with a ketogenic diet over a period of time sufficient to reduce or completely eliminate seizures in the patient. Also provided are compositions and kits finding use in practicing embodiments of the methods.

Abstract: The invention provides a drug delivery system for a combination of therapeutic agents. The system includes a water soluble biodegradable ABA-type triblock copolymer that possesses thermosensitive gelation properties. The system can form a stable thermogel that includes a combination of therapeutic agents including, for example, rapamycin, paclitaxel, and 17-AAG. After administration to a subject, the drugs are released at a controlled rate from the thermogel, which biodegrades into non-toxic components. The polymer system can also function to increase the solubility and stability of drugs in the composition.

Abstract: This invention discloses uses for estrone in preparing anti-ovarian cancer and/or breast cancer products. This invention provides uses for estrone in the preparation of products to treat ovarian cancer and/or breast cancer. From carrying out cancer drug repositioning for the FDA- and CFDA-approved drug estrone, experiments for this invention show, based on screening of non-anti-cancer drugs for various cancer cell lines (tissue types) and mutation sites, that estrone has a new use as an anti-ovarian cancer and/or anti-breast cancer medication, thus achieving a new purpose for an old drug.
