  • Publication number: 20260076927
    Abstract: The present invention features palatable pharmaceutical compositions including sodium phenylbutyrate and methods for the treatment of inborn errors of metabolism (e.g., Maple Syrup Urine Disease or Urea Cycle Disorders), neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease, spinal muscular atrophy, dystonia, or inclusion-body myositis with such compositions.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 31, 2025
    Publication date: March 19, 2026

  • Publication number: 20240342104
    Abstract: Provided is a dosage form, comprising a core geometric entity, a drug geometric entity connected with the core geometric entity, and a taste-masking geometric entity surrounding the drug geometric entity. The drug geometric entity comprises a drug substance, and the taste-masking geometric entity inhibits the rapid release of the drug substance from the dosage form when the dosage form is administered orally to the subject.

  • Publication number: 20220356471
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to compositions and methods for inhibiting exon 3 skipping in the 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase (PTS) gene in monocytes, monocyte-derived cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells of the precursor cells thereof. The inhibition can be achieved with genome editing of the genomic sequence to remove certain splicing factor recognition sites or inhibiting the expression or activity of the splicing factors that contribute to the cell-specific exon skipping. Monocytes and monocyte-derived cells that have reduced exon skipping in the PTS gene can generate more potent immune response and thus are useful in preventing or treating diseases such as infectious diseases and cancer.
