Abstract: Provided herein are compounds and methods for the treatment of brain cancer in a mammal, wherein the method comprises the administration to the mammal a compound that stabilizes tubulin dimers or microtubles at G2-M interface during mitosis but is not a substrate for MDR protein. In particular, the present application relates to the use of an orally effective abeo-taxane, alone or in combination with temozolomide or bevacizumab, for the treatment of brain cancer.

Abstract: Small molecule choline kinase inhibitors, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and screening methods for identifying and evaluating choline kinase inhibitors are provided. Safe and effective methods for treating subjects suffering from a disorder or disease characterized by neoplastic cell proliferation employing the choline kinase inhibitors are also provided.

Abstract: The present embodiments are directed to compositions and methods of delivering the compositions that comprise mitomycin C and superior magnetically targetable carrier particles. As the compositions are magnetically targetable, their use allows the localization of mitomycin C to particular locations within a patient. This allows for an increase in the effective concentration or a decrease in systemic exposure of mitomycin C in a patient.

Abstract: The invention relates to magnetically targetable particles comprising at least one magnetic component The particles are capable of delivering selectively to a site or organ a biologically active substance for in vivo medical diagnosis and/or treatment. The particles are prepared by many processes such as encapsulation processes. Also described are methods for making the particles, methods for localized in vivo delivery of a biologically active agent utilizing the particles, a kit for the administration of the particles, as well as a method for sterilizing the particles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical delivery device for application of a pharmaceutical to mucosal surfaces. The device comprises an adhesive layer and a non-adhesive backing layer, and the pharmaceutical may be provided in either or both layers. Upon application, the device adheres to the mucosal surface, providing localized drug delivery and protection to the treatment site. The kinetics of erodability are easily adjusted by varying the number of layers and/or the components.
