  • Patent number: 10080752
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for treating tumors of the brain by administering the compounds of the Formula A and particularly N-(3,4-dichloro-2-fluorophenyl)-7-({[(3aR,6aS)-2-methyloctahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-5-yl]methyl}oxy)-6-(methyloxy)quinazolin-4-amine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a subject in need of such treatment. In the methods of the invention, the compounds disclosed herein were surprisingly found to cross the blood brain barrier. The method of the present invention further relates to the treatment of cancers of any type potentially responding to EGFR, HER2, VEGFR2, or Src family kinase inhibitors and that are found in the brain.

  • Publication number: 20160340429
    Abstract: The invention provides antibodies that specifically bind to PD-L1 and fusion molecules comprising PD-L1 binding proteins constructed with an IL15 receptor-binding domain, nucleic acid molecules encoding the same, and therapeutic compositions thereof. The agents inhibit PD-L1-mediated immunosuppression and enhance cell and cytokine mediated immunity for the treatment of neoplastic and infectious diseases.

  • Publication number: 20140363396
    Abstract: Hepatitis C is treated by administering once daily ribavirin, taribavirin, other derivatives or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Hepatitis C may also be treated by administering any of the foregoing compounds once daily in combination with interferon and/or direct-acting antivirals. Once daily dosage forms administered for treating hepatitis C may comprise between 800 mg and 1400 of ribavirin. Once daily dosage forms administered for treating hepatitis C may also comprise between 800 mg and 4000 mg of taribavirin.

  • Publication number: 20120201817
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of inhibiting receptor tyrosine kinases by utilizing a combination of both an extracellular and an intracellular RTK antagonist. The extracellular RTK antagonist is a biological molecule or a small molecule that inhibits activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase by interacting with the extracellular binding region of the receptor. The intracellular RTK antagonist is a biological molecule or small molecule that inhibits tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor tyrosine kinase by interacting with the receptor's intracellular region bearing a kinase domain or by interacting with an intracellular protein involved in the signaling pathway of the receptor tyrosine kinase. The present invention also provides methods of treating tyrosine kinase-dependent diseases, and compositions for use in such methods thereof, by administering a combination of both an extracellular and an intracellular RTK antagonist.
