  • Method and non-gelling composition for inhibiting post-surgical adhesions
    Publication number: 20030129240
    Abstract: Non-gelling polyoxyalkylene compositions, and methods of their use for inhibiting surgical adhesion formation/reformation in mammals are disclosed. The useful non-gelling compositions preferably comprise polyoxyalkylene block copolymer at desired concentrations with or without a therapeutic agent. When used with an incorporated drug, the non-gelling compositions serve as a carrier providing sustained or prolonged release of the therapeutic agent.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 12, 2002
    Publication date: July 10, 2003
    Inventors: Lorraine E. Reeve, Stephen G. Flore, Frederick J. Foley, Raymond L. Henry
  • Methods and compositions for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents and/or the prevention of adhesions
    Publication number: 20030108610
    Abstract: The present invention provides a composition comprising one or more constitutive polymers and modifier polymers and/or hydrophilic co-surfactants useful for reducing adhesions or delivering bioactive agents. Methods for preventing and/or reducing post-surgical adhesions or delivering bioactive agents are also provided.
