Abstract: The present invention includes composition and methods for treating a patient with a known or suspected viral-induced infection, respiratory disorder or exacerbation thereof, or preventing the same, the method comprising: administering to the patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an agent, wherein the agent comprises at least one of: (a) an activatable pro-IFN-Fc antibody, (b) an anti-viral-associated antibody or anti-epithelial-associated antibody (aVab/aEab)-IFN-Fc fusion protein, wherein the aVab/aEab is an anti-PD-L1, anti-VEGF, or anti-EGFR antibody variable domain, an activatable pro-aVab/aEab-IFN-Fc, an activatable aVab/aEab-pro-IFN-Fc, or pro-aVab/aEab-pro-IFN-Fc; wherein the fusion antibody prodrugs are activatable by proteases upregulated in upper and lower respiratory tracts during viral infection; wherein the preferred route of administration is via nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal airways, and wherein the administration results in suppression of viral replication causing a

Abstract: A medical device for implantation into vessels or luminal structures within the body is provided, which stimulates positive blood vessel remodeling. The medical device, such as a stent and a synthetic graft, is coated with a pharmaceutical composition consisting of a controlled-release matrix and one or more pharmaceutical substances for direct delivery of drugs to surrounding tissues. The coating on the medical device further comprises a ligand such as a peptide, an antibody or a small molecule for capturing progenitor endothelial cells in the blood contacting surface of the device for restoring an endothelium at the site of injury. In particular, the drug-coated stents are for use, for example, in balloon angioplasty procedures for preventing or inhibiting restenosis.
