Abstract: Compositions and methods to treat or prevent pain, inflammation, or inflammation-related disorder, as well as a neurologic disorder involving neurodegrneration in a subject that is in need of such prevention or treatment involve a combination of a Cox-2 inhibitor and a 5-HT1A receptor modulator.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods to treat, prevent or inhibit a neoplasia, a neoplasia-related disorder, pain, inflammation, an inflammatory-related disorder, a vaso-occlusive event or a vaso-occlusive-related disorder in a mammal using a combination of a COX-2 inhibitor and a TACE inhibitor.

Abstract: A method of treating, preventing, or inhibiting PD, in a subject in need of such treatment, inhibition or prevention. The method comprises treating the subject with one or more cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof, in combination with one or more second drugs, wherein the amount of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s) or isomer(s) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s), ester(s), or prodrug(s) thereof in combination with the amount of second drug(s) constitutes a PD treatment, inhibition or prevention effective amount.

Abstract: A method of treating, preventing, or inhibiting PD, in a subject in need of such treatment, inhibition or prevention. The method comprises treating the subject with one or more cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s), ester(s), salt(s) or prodrug(s) thereof, wherein the amount of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor(s), ester(s), salt(s) or prodrug(s) thereof constitutes a PD treatment, inhibition or prevention effective amount of the COX 2 inhibitor(s).

Abstract: This invention provides methods for the treatment or prevention of Alzheimer's disease in a mammal which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of an inhibitor of phospholipase A.sub.2.
