Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating a fatty acid synthesis related disease comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a PARP inhibitor or metabolite thereof to inhibit fatty acid synthesis, wherein the fatty acid synthesis related disease is obesity, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a cancer in a subject comprising: (i) identifying a level of fatty acid in a sample from the subject, and (ii) administering an effective amount of a PARP inhibitor or metabolite thereof to inhibit fatty acid synthesis in the subject, wherein the administration is based on the level of fatty acid, thereby treating the cancer in the subject. The present invention further relates to a method of treating Her-2 related cancers by administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a PARP inhibitor or metabolite thereof to inhibit fatty acid synthesis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of identifying a disease treatable with PARP modulators by identifying a level of PARP in a sample of a subject, making a decision regarding identifying the disease treatable by the PARP modulators wherein the decision is made based on the level of PARP. The method further comprises of treating the disease in the subject with the PARP modulators. The methods relate to identifying up-regulated PARP in a disease and making a decision regarding the treatment of the disease with PARP inhibitors. The extent of PARP up-regulation in a disease can also help in determining the efficacy of the treatment with PARP inhibitors. The present invention also relates to methods of identifying a disease treatable with PARP modulators by identifying a level of PARP in a plurality of samples from a population, making a decision regarding identifying the disease treatable by the PARP modulators wherein the decision is made based on the level of PARP.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions of matter, kits, and methods for use in treating cancer and viral conditions. In particular the invention provides for pharmaceutical compositions containing nitrobenzamide compounds that have enhanced solubility in aqueous solutions.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating breast cancer that is negative for at least one of ER, PR, or HER2, comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor. In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating breast cancer comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor in combination with at least one anti-tumor agent.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating uterine cancer, endometrial cancer, or ovarian cancer, comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor. In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating uterine cancer, endometrial cancer, or ovarian cancer, comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor in combination with at least one anti-tumor agent.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating breast cancer that is negative for at least one of ER, PR, or HER2, comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor. In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating breast cancer comprising administering to a subject at least one PARP inhibitor in combination with at least one anti-tumor agent.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of identifying a disease treatable with modulators of differentially expressed genes in a disease, including at least PARP modulators, by identifying the level of expression of differentially expressed genes, including at least PARP, in a plurality of samples from a population, making a decision regarding identifying the disease treatable by modulators to the differentially expressed genes wherein the decision is made based on the level of expression of the differentially expressed genes. The method can further comprise treating the disease in a subject population with modulators of identified differentially expressed genes. The methods relate to identifying up-regulated expression of identified differentially-expressed genes in a disease and making a decision regarding the treatment of the disease. The level of expression of the differentially expressed genes in a disease can also help in determining the efficacy of the treatment with modulators to the differentially expressed genes.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to novel compositions and methods with an opioid agonist and an opioid antagonist to differentially dose a human subject so as to either enhance analgesic potency without attenuating an adverse side effect of the agonist, or alternatively maintain the analgesic potency of the agonist while attenuating an adverse side effect of the agonist. The invention additionally relates to novel opioid compositions and methods for the gender-based dosing of men and women.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of identifying a disease treatable with PARP modulators by identifying a level of PARP in a plurality of samples from a population, making a decision regarding identifying the disease treatable by the PARP modulators wherein the decision is made based on the level of PARP. The method further comprises of treating the disease in a subject population with the PARP modulators. The methods relate to identifying up-regulated PARP in a disease and making a decision regarding the treatment of the disease with PARP inhibitors. The extent of PARP up-regulation in a disease can also help in determining the efficacy of the treatment with PARP inhibitors. The present invention discloses various diseases that have up-regulated or down-regulated PARP and can be treated with PARP inhibitors or PARP activators, respectively.
