Abstract: Oral dosage forms as a biodegradable, water soluble film for delivering pharmaceutically active agents, particularly diethylstilbestrol and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof to patients through insertion into the mouth of patient and methods for administering pharmaceutically active agents to patients by insertion into the mouth to provide selective uptake of said agents through the mucosa and thus avoiding the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract: Provided herein are drug delivery systems comprising nanosuspension formulations suitable for parenteral delivery to a subject. The nanosuspension formulations may comprise a benzimidazole derivative, e.g., mebendazole, and surface stabilizers, such as block copolymer(s), e.g., Pluronic F108, and surfactant(s), e.g., Tween 80, and, optionally, water. Provided are methods for defining nanosuspensions of a benzimidazole derivative as having maximum therapeutic efficacy for a treatment regimen by adjusting and/or selecting particles size(s) based on pharmacokinetic parameters of the derivative in the tissue.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions of a benzimidazole or a benzimidazole derivative are disclosed. For example, in certain embodiments the pharmaceutical compositions include a benzimidazole, PEG 400, and a dipolar aprotic solvent. In other embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions include a benzimidazole, an oil, a dipolar aproptic solvent, and a surfactant. In certain embodiments, the benzimidazole is mebendezole. The pharmaceutical compositions are formulated for delivery to a subject by any means, and include formulations for oral and parenteral delivery.
