Publication number: 20240086997Abstract: A system according to certain aspects of the disclosure provides drug pricing information from multiple PBMs to users. For example, the system may obtain, calculate, and/or estimate drug prices that are available under contracts or agreements between PBMs and various pharmacies. These prices may be prices of drugs for purchase at the various pharmacies. In response to requests for prices of particular drugs, the system can display relevant prices. For example, the system displays a price for each pharmacy chain and/or displays prices for a particular geographical area. The users can compare the prices for a particular drug and determine which pharmacy they would like to purchase the drug from. The system can provide a discount coupon that allows the users to purchase the drug at the price listed by the system at the selected pharmacy.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Trevor Zachary Bezdek, Douglas Joseph Hirsch, Scott Andrew Marlette, William Raymond McClure, Andrew David Slutsky

Publication number: 20240086240Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for allocating computing resources. In one aspect, a method includes receiving intent data specifying one or more computing services to be hosted by a computing network, requested characteristics of computing resources for use in hosting the computing service, and a priority value for each requested characteristic. A budget constraint is identified for each computing service. Available resources data is identified that specifies a set of available computing resources. A resource allocation problem for allocating computing resources for the one or more computing resources is generated based on the intent data, each budget constraint, and the available resources data. At least a portion of the set of computing resources is allocated for the one or more computing services based on results of evaluating the resource allocation problem to meet a particular resource allocation objective.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: Google LLCInventors: David J. Helstroom, Patricia Weir, Cameron Cody Smith, Zachary A. Hirsch, Ulric B. Longyear

Patent number: 10331650Abstract: According to an aspect, a content fragment of a legacy model file is mapped via a processor to a plurality of web files. A change to the content fragment of the legacy model file is detected by the processor. One or more modified web files corresponding to the changed content fragment is generated by the processor. The one or more modified web files corresponding to the detected changes in the content fragment of the legacy model file are sent via the processor to a remote computing device.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2014Date of Patent: June 25, 2019Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Moria Abadi, Yuval Gil, David Hirsch, Alexander Rekhter

Patent number: 10092825Abstract: A gaming system includes a server having a basket containing a set of events, each event having an element of predictability and an element of randomness. User devices connected to the server accept user selections with respect to a pre-determined game and each user selection includes an ordered list of a subset of the basket. The gaming system has a way to determine results of the plurality of events and a way to determine if any of the user selections matches the results, and if so, declaring a winner.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2015Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Inventor: David Hirsch

Patent number: 9820990Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of treatment of clinical disorders associated with protein aggregation comprising administering, to a subject, an effective amount of an anti-protein aggregate (“APA”) compound selected from the group consisting of pimozide, fluphenazine (e.g., fluphenazine hydrochloride), tamoxifen (e.g., tamoxifen citrate), taxol, cantharidin, cantharidic acid, salts thereof and their structurally related compounds. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that each of the aforelisted compounds were able to promote degradation of aggregated ATZ protein in a Caenorhabditis elegans model system. According to the invention, treatment with one or more of these APA compounds may be used to ameliorate the symptoms and signs of AT deficiency as well as other disorders marked by protein aggregation, including, but not limited to, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, and Huntington's Disease.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2016Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH—OF THE COMMONWEALTH SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATIONInventors: Stephen C.

Publication number: 20170049783Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of treatment of clinical disorders associated with protein polymerization comprising administering, to a subject, an effective amount of carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine or another carbamazepine-like compound. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that, in cells having a genetic defect in ?1-antitrypsin, carbamazepine was able to decrease levels of the mutant protein. Furthermore, carbamazepine reduced the hepatic load of mutant ?1-antitrypsin and the toxic effect of that mutant protein accumulation, hepatic fibrosis, in vivo using a mouse model of the disease. As patients having this defect in ?1-antitrypsin exhibit toxic accumulations of the protein, treatment according to the invention may be used to ameliorate symptoms and signs of disease.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2016Publication date: February 23, 2017Applicant: University of Pittsburgh - Of the Commonwealth System of Higher EducationInventors: David Hirsch Perlmutter, George Konstantine Michalopoulos, Tunde Hidvegi
