  • Publication number: 20160074482
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods and compositions for targeting and delivering solid-phase platelet-dependent vascular occlusion agents. In particular, particles or coils or stents coated with platelet binding agents are directed to target vasculature, such as the vasculature of solid tumor masses or AV-malformations or aneurysms or endoleaks; the solid-phase agent then binds and activates platelets, which in turn bind and activate other platelets. This process results in the rapid formation of a platelet-mediated thrombus about the solid-phase agent causing vessel occlusion.

  • Patent number: 8318954
    Abstract: The invention includes novel compounds, including but not limited to formula A and formula B, and an improved delivery method. These compounds and methods are useful in preventing or treating diseases or conditions associated with or caused by the presence of free radicals, and are useful for increasing cellular metabolism while simultaneously alleviating the resultant increase in oxidative stress. Specifically, a carnitine is bound to a lipoic acid derivative or to dihydrolipoic acid or its derivatives using a hydrolysable linker to form a single compound.
