Patent number: 11963942Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition comprises a taxane (e.g., paclitaxel, docetaxel, cabazitaxel, larotaxel, ortataxel, and/or tesetaxel) in a mixture of first and second surfactants. The absorption of the taxane is increased from the pharmaceutical composition is greater than the sum of the absorption of docetaxel from either the first or the second surfactant. The increase in absorption is especially enhanced when the ratio of the first surfactant to the second surfactant in the pharmaceutical composition is between 60:40 and 85:15 by weight, and the total surfactant weight does not exceed 98% of the total weight. Polysorbate 80, polysorbate 20, and caprylocaproyl polyoxylglycerides serve as suitable first surfactants, and polysorbate 80 or polyethyoxylated castor oil serve as suitable second surfactants. The stability of the pharmaceutical composition may be enhanced by further including a stabilizer (e.g., citric acid and/or ascorbic acid).Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2020Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Health Hope Pharma LtdInventors: Denise S. B. Chan, Ming Tsung Lee, Weng Li Yoon, Johnson Yiu-Nam Lau

Publication number: 20080242198Abstract: A multi-step planarizing and polishing method includes performing a first and a second polishing steps, wherein one of the two polishing steps is performed using a silica abrasive based slurry, while the other one of the two polishing steps is performed using a CeO2 abrasive based slurry. A third polishing step is further performed using a fixed abrasive pad. Further, the thickness deviation of wafers entering the third polishing step is controlled.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2007Publication date: October 2, 2008Applicant: UNITED MICROELECTRONICS CORP.Inventors: Lee-Lee Lau, Chin-Kun Lin, Boon-Tiong Neo, Ching-Wen Teng

Patent number: 7004820Abstract: A method for chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) includes a rinsing process performed to clean an orifice of a slurry supplier and other elements of a CMP device. The CMP device includes least one nozzle disposed in the periphery of a base. The function of the nozzle is to spray DI water to the orifice of the slurry supplier so as to prevent slurry residue and clogging.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2005Date of Patent: February 28, 2006Assignee: United Microelectronics Corp.Inventors: Ching-Wen Teng, Ming-Hsing Kao, Chin-Kun Lin, Er-Yang Chua, Lee-Lee Lau

Patent number: 6038520Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing specific assembled circuits begins by configuring a plurality of applications specific testing entities to test assembled circuits, where the configuring is based on the types of assembled circuits being tested. Next, a specific assembled circuit testing program is provided to the corresponding application specific testing entity based on the type of assembled circuits it is testing. In addition to providing the testing programs to the testing entities, programming instructions are provided to a programmable handler to pick and place the appropriate assembled circuits with the corresponding applications specific testing entities. When the testing of a particular assembled circuit is complete, a test complete indication is provided.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 1998Date of Patent: March 14, 2000Assignee: ATI Technologies, IncInventors: Roy Schoonover, Albert Man, Sam Ho, Lee Lau
