Abstract: Methods of treating an eye for an ocular condition such as placing a composite depot comprising a xerogel with embedded degradable particles into an anterior chamber of an eye to deliver a therapeutic agent. The xerogel is a hydrogel after exposure to intraocular fluid and is degradable. The degradable particles comprise the therapeutic agent and hydrolytically degrade in the anterior chamber to provide a controlled release of the therapeutic agent into the eye. Materials and processes for making depots are provided as well as alternative methods of their use.

Abstract: Drug delivery involving hydrogels as used for various medical conditions, and includes hydrogels formed in an eye with extended drug release times. An embodiment of the invention is a method of delivering a therapeutic agent to a tissue comprising forming a hydrogel in situ in an eye with a therapeutic agent dispersed in the hydrogel, the agent having a low solubility in water. The agent may be essentially insoluble in water. The hydrogel may be made so that 50% to 100% w/w of the agent is released when the hydrogel is from 100% to 50% persistent, with the persistence being a measure of the dry weight of the hydrogel relative to an initial dry weight of the hydrogel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sustained release biodegradable ocular implant containing a tyrosine kinase inhibitor dispersed in a hydrogel for the treatment of a retinal disease for an extended period of time.

Abstract: Drug delivery using bio-affecting drugs, particularly with shape changing drug delivery devices. Embodiments are included for depots for delivery of a therapeutic agent that change from an elongated state ex vivo to a coil in vivo where the agent is released.

Abstract: The present invention is related to pharmaceutical formulations and methods of treating a subject afflicted with the influenza virus, the method includes administering to the respiratory tract of the patient particles that include more than about 5% to about 50% weight percent (wt %) of a neuraminidase inhibitor. The particles are delivered to the patient's pulmonary system, including the upper airways, central airways and deep lung.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved pharmaceutical formulations for pulmonary delivery having improved chemical and physical stability of the therapeutic, prophylactic or diagnostic agent as compared to formulations known in the art. The improved pharmaceutical formulations of the invention for administration to the respiratory system of a patient for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions comprise a mass of biocompatible particles comprising an active agent, and a hydrogenated starch hydrosylate (HSH). The improvement over the prior art comprises the presence of HSH in the pharmaceutical formulation. The invention further relates to a method of treating diseases comprising administering the pharmaceutical formulations of the present invention to the respiratory system of a patient in need of treatment.
