Publication number: 20210106519Abstract: The present invention relates to a topical formulation intended to be used for the treatment of androgenic or androgenetic baldness in men and women, with reduced side effects, especially with fewer collateral effects in the female population. The topical formulation comprises 0.01% to 10% by weight of Finasteride and a concentration of 1% to 5% by weight of Minoxidil in its free form or in an inert porous polymer. The combination of Finasteride and Minoxidil provides a synergistic effect against baldness. The formulation also comprises 0.15% by weight of retinol and is suitable for being applied to the scalp of the patient that requires it.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2019Publication date: April 15, 2021Applicant: CENTRO INTERNACIONAL DE COSMIATRÍA, S.A.P.I.

Patent number: 5955109Abstract: Retinoic acid compositions intended for topical application are incorporated in novel formulations in which they are retained as impregnants inside the pores of porous solid particles or microspheres. The pores form a continuous network open to the exterior of the particles, permitting outward diffusion of the retinoic acid impregnant at a controlled rate depending on the pore size. The impregnated particles are prepared by impregnation of preformed particles with the retinoic acid.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 1993Date of Patent: September 21, 1999Assignee: Advanced Polymer Systems, Inc.Inventors: Richard Won, Martin A. Katz, Chung H. Cheng, Sergio Nacht

Patent number: 5871722Abstract: Ionic compositions comprise an active ingredient absorbed within a network of internal pores defined by a plurality of polymeric particles. The particles are preferably crosslinked polymeric beads having a diameter in the range from about 5 to 100 microns and a surface charge density from about 0.1 to 10 meq/qm hydrogen ion capacity. The active ingredients are released from the ionic polymer beads over time when orally administered, applied to a keratinic material, typically human skin or hair or otherwise delivered to a target environment. The use of a cationic charge promotes adhesion of the beads to the keratinic material.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 1995Date of Patent: February 16, 1999Assignee: Advanced Polymer Systems, Inc.Inventors: Sergio Nacht, Richard Won, Martin A. Katz, Tai Cheng, Christine J.Y. Liau, Robert P. Eury, Michael Froix

Patent number: 5458890Abstract: Flavored food and pharmaceutical compositions include one or more flavor additives incorporated within polymeric particles, usually within an internal pore network defined by individual polymeric particles. The polymeric particles are, in turn, dispersed within and/or over a surface of an orally-deliverable matrix material, which is usually a solid or semi-solid substrate. In the case of chewable compositions, the flavor additives will be released into the orally-deliverable matrix material as the composition is chewed and held in the mouth, thus prolonging the flavor of the composition. In the case of dried powders and mixes, the flavor will typically be made available as the product is consumed or be released into the matrix material as the composition is further processed. When two flavors are combined with the polymeric particles, the relative amounts of the additives can be selected to provide simultaneous release and exhaustion of the additives.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1991Date of Patent: October 17, 1995Assignee: Advanced Polymer Systems, Inc.Inventors: John H. Williford, Martin Katz, Sergio Nacht, Chung-Heng Cheng, Rajesh A. Patel, Brian J. Picard

Patent number: 5028435Abstract: Transdermal drug delivery systems comprise a backing or enclosure having a matrix layer which incorporates a drug and a percutaneous enhancer for the drug. The percutaneous enhancer and/or drug will be contained within polymeric particles dispersed through the matrix layer, where the polymeric particles define pore networks which are sized to release the enhancer and/or drug into the matrix layer at rate(s) selected to provide for a desired rate of drug penetration. By isolating the enhancer within the polymeric particles, adverse interactions between the enhancer and the matrix layer and/or the drug can be minimized. Moreover, the release rate of the enhancer into the matrix layer can be carefully controlled, which in turn controls the penetration rate of the drug into the treated host.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 1989Date of Patent: July 2, 1991Assignee: Advanced Polymer Systems, Inc.Inventors: Martin Katz, Sergio Nacht, Jorge Heller

Patent number: 4855144Abstract: Melanin compositions include a melanin pigment incorporated within polymeric particles, usually within an internal pore network defined by a polymeric particle matrix. The melanin compositions may be produced by in situ oxidation of melanin precursors within the pore network, or by absorption of a melanin pigment in a suitable vehicle or carrier. The melanin compositions are found to display enhanced absorbance of ultraviolet radiation and better cosmetic attributes when compared to melanin pigments which are not incorporated in such a polymeric particle matrix.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 1988Date of Patent: August 8, 1989Assignee: Advanced Polymer SystemsInventors: Helen Leong, Martin Katz, Ann Delk, Sergio Nacht, David Berliner
