Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods to treat or prevent coronavirus disease, including Covid-19. The methods comprise the administration of pharmaceutically acceptable gallium compounds. A preferred method is the oral administration of gallium maltolate, and another preferred method is inhalation of an aerosolized solution of gallium maltolate into the bronchi and lungs. Also provided are methods to destroy or otherwise inactivate coronaviruses on or in the body of an individual, on any surface, in any liquid, or in any gas including air, by direct contact with a gallium compound or with gallium in solution as a liquid or vapor.

Abstract: Provided are methods of treating pain, including neuropathic pain, in human and veterinary individuals. These methods employ locally administrable pharmaceutical gallium compositions, including pharmaceutical gallium compositions suitable for administration to the skin and mucous membranes. The compositions comprise pharmaceutically acceptable gallium compounds, such as gallium maltolate or gallium nitrate, together with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers suitable for local administration, including those suitable for topical administration. The administration of such compositions provides relief from pain, itching, allodynia, hyperalgesia, and related symptoms.

Abstract: Provided are pharmaceutical gallium compositions that are particularly useful for oral administration. The pharmaceutical compositions include solid, liquid, and paste formulations, which have high oral gallium bioavailability and are suitable for human and veterinary applications. The compositions comprise pharmaceutically acceptable gallium compounds, such as gallium maltolate, gallium 8-quinolinolonate, or gallium nitrate, together with certain viscosity-increasing agents, such as water-soluble forms of methylcellulose or carboxymethylcellulose.

Abstract: Provided are methods to treat cancer, in which (1) a patient is first identified as having a cancer that is likely to be susceptible to gallium therapy, by the use of a gallium scan or other procedure that shows whether the cancer is gallium-avid, and (2) the patient is then treated with a pharmaceutically acceptable gallium composition.

Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods to treat liver cancer and related disorders in human or veterinary individuals. Primary liver cancers, including those metastatic to other parts of the body, as well as many cancers metastatic to the liver, can be treated. The treatments comprise the administration of pharmaceutically acceptable gallium compositions, including gallium maltolate. Routes of administration include, without limitation, oral, intravenous, intratumoral, and in association with chemoembolization.

Abstract: Provided are formulations and methods for treating inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and Johne's disease. The formulations provided comprise pharmaceutically acceptable gallium compounds; the methods provided comprise means of using such formulations in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and closely related disorders.
