Abstract: Microneedle arrays for introducing an active ingredient through a skin surface of a subject can include a base layer, a plurality of microneedles projecting from the base layer, and an active ingredient. Each of the microneedles comprises an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion, in which the proximal portion is attached to the base layer. Each of the microneedles comprises at least one dissolvable polymer. The active ingredient is incorporated in the elongate body, and the active ingredient is present only in the distal portion and at least internally in the distal portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to injectable formulations of irritant agents, such as calcimimetics, that are pharmaceutically stable and demonstrate a reduced incidence of irritation, pain, phlebitis, precipitation and hemolysis upon injection.

Abstract: The anti-angiogenic drug AMG 706 is provided in the mono-phosphate hydrate form. Also provided is AMG 706 drug substance wherein the AMG 706 is present, in at least a detectable amount, as AMG 706 phosphate dihydrate. Also provided are processes for preparing AMG 706 phosphate dihydrate, AMG 706 drug substance of the invention, and a pharmaceutical composition of the invention. Also provided is a method of treating a medical condition or disorder in a subject where treatment with an anti-angiogenic is indicated, comprising administering, for example orally, a composition of the invention in a therapeutically effective amount.

Abstract: The anti-angiogenic drug AMG 706 is provided in amorphous form. Also provided is AMG 706 drug substance wherein the AMG 706 is present, in at least a detectable amount, as amorphous AMG 706. Also provided is an AMG 706-crystallization inhibitor composite comprising particles of amorphous AMG 706 or a AMG 706 drug substance of the invention in intimate association with one or more crystallization inhibitors, for example polymers. Also provided is a pharmaceutical composition comprising such an AMG 706-crystallization inhibitor composite and one or more excipients. Also provided are processes for preparing amorphous AMG 706, AMG 706 drug substance of the invention, an AMG 706-crystallization inhibitor composite of the invention, and a pharmaceutical composition of the invention.
