Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition is provided which includes perillyl alcohol conjugated with a therapeutic agent and further includes and a hydrolyzable acylated aliphatic tail. A method of using the pharmaceutical composition is also provided for treating a condition or disease of a patient, e.g., cancer.

Abstract: The present invention includes methods/processes and intermediates for preparing compounds having structural Formula (I): wherein X is alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, heteroalkyl, substituted heteroalkyl, heteroalkenyl, or substituted heteroalkenyl.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for purifying a monoterpene or sesquiterpene having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The process comprises the steps of derivatizing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) to produce a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, separating the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, and releasing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) from the derivative. Also encompassed by the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The purified monoterpene can be used to treat a disease such as cancer. The present monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) may be administered alone, or may be co-administered with radiation or other therapeutic agents, such as chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract: In alternative embodiments the invention provides methods for synthesizing AB-007 (also called loxistatin, E64d, EST or ((2S,3S)-trans-epoxysuccinyl-L-leucyl-amido-3-methylbutane ethyl ester) and its acid form E64c (loxistatin acid), and various synthetic intermediates, and deuterated forms of these compounds, and stereoisomers thereof. In alternative embodiments the invention provides a tosylate salt of AB-007-4 or a tosylate salt of L-leucine isoamylamine, or equivalents thereof. A synthetic scheme of the invention provides kilogram quantities of AB-007 manufactured according to current good manufacturing practices (cGMP's), consistent with US FDA requirements for human use. In alternative embodiments the invention provides a tosylate salt of AB-007-4 or a tosylate salt of L-leucine isoamylamine, or equivalents thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a derivative of monoterpene or sesquiterpene, such as a perillyl alcohol derivative. For example, the perillyl alcohol derivative may be a perillyl alcohol carbamate. The perillyl alcohol derivative may be perillyl alcohol conjugated with a therapeutic agent such as a chemotherapeutic agent. The present invention also provides for a method of treating a disease such as cancer, comprising the step of delivering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of a derivative of monoterpene for sesquiterpene). The route of administration may vary, and can include, inhalation, intranasal, oral, transdermal, intravenous, subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.

Abstract: An ionization device includes a first electrode comprising a conductive member coated with a dielectric layer. The ionization device also includes a spine extending adjacent to and at least partially along the first electrode. The ionization device further includes a second electrode comprising conductive segments disposed adjacent the first electrode. Each one of the conductive segments contacts the spine at a respective contact location. The dielectric layer of the first electrode separates the conductive member of the first electrode from the spine and the second electrode. The ionization device is configured to create plasma generating locations corresponding to respective crossings of the first electrode and the second electrode.
