  • Patent number: 11091780
    Abstract: Described herein are methods and compositions for autocatalytic genome editing and neutralizing autocatalytic genome editing. The autocatalytic genome editing may be based on genomic integration of a construct containing multiple elements or on a trans-complementation approach, in which genetic elements can be propagated separately. The disclosure provides a method for autocatalytic genome editing based on the CRISPR/CAS9 system, and methods of use thereof, in animals, humans, and plants for eliminating pathogens, targeting suppression of crop pests, strategies to combat virus (e.g., HIV) and other diseases (e.g., cancer) caused by retrovirus, as well as to generate homozygous mutations that are transmitted to nearly all offspring.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10537563
    Abstract: The present invention provides in one aspect methods for treating ocular diseases by administering pharmaceutical compositions comprising an inhibitor of colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) receptors. In another aspect, the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions for treating ocular diseases, the compositions comprising at least one inhibitor of CSF-1R. The inhibitor can also be a selective inhibitor of CSF-1R in certain embodiments.

  • Patent number: 10174006
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the provision of a multi-dose topical ophthalmic composition containing a 1H-indole-1-carboxamide and use thereof for treatment of ophthalmic disease. More specifically the present invention is directed to a multi-dose aqueous ophthalmic composition (e.g., a solution, a suspension, an emulsion or the like) containing a 1H-indole-1-carboxamide (e.g., N-(1-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-5-((6-((methylamino)methyl)pyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)-1H-indole-1-carboxamide) and use thereof for treatment of an ophthalmic disease at the back of the eye such as age related macular degeneration (AMD).

  • Publication number: 20170290876
    Abstract: The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery of peptide tags that increase the half-life and/or mean residence time of proteins or nucleic acids in the eye. In certain aspects the invention peptide tags increase the half-life and/or mean residence time of antibodies and antigen binding fragments, therapeutic proteins, protein receptors, DARPins and/or aptamers in the eye.
