  • Publication number: 20170340740
    Abstract: Compositions comprised of olanzapine and a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist and a polyorthoester polymer are provided to provide extended release of the active agents. Also described are compositions comprising olanzapine and a polyorthoester. The compositions are effective for the prophylactic treatment or treatment of subjects at risk of or suffering from nausea and/or vomiting. The compositions are particularly useful for the prevention or treatment of acute, delayed, breakthrough or refractory chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The CINV may result from, e.g., highly or moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. The compositions are suitable for delivery via, e.g., intramuscular injection, intradermal injection, and subcutaneous injection.

  • Patent number: 9801945
    Abstract: Compositions comprised of a delivery vehicle or delivery system and an active agent dispersed within the delivery vehicle or system, wherein the delivery vehicle or system contains a polyorthoester polymer and a polar aprotic solvent. Also disclosed are low viscosity delivery systems for administration of active agents. The low viscosity delivery systems have a polyorthoester polymer, a polar aprotic solvent and a solvent containing a triglyceride viscosity reducing agent. Compositions described include an amide- or anilide-type local anesthetic of the “caine” classification, and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), along with related methods, e.g., for treatment of post-operative pain or for prophylactic treatment of pain. The compositions are suitable for delivery via, e.g., direct application and instillation, intradermal injection, subcutaneous injection, and nerve block (perineural).

  • Patent number: 9744163
    Abstract: Delivery systems and compositions comprised of a biodegradable polyorthoester polymer, an aprotic solvent, and a drug are described. The solvent is selected to modulate release of drug from the composition, where, in some embodiments, the solvent is rapidly released after administration and provides a corresponding rapid rate of drug release. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the solvent is slowly released from the composition after its administration, and provides a correspondingly slow rate of drug release.

  • Publication number: 20170232107
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for sustained release pharmaceutical formulations which can deliver both a 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5HT3) receptor antagonist and a neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist to a subject in need thereof. Formulations described herein are suitable for subcutaneous administration. Also described are methods of treatment of various disorders, including chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). The disclosed compositions and methods provide for less frequent dosing of the therapeutic agents, thereby increasing subject comfort and compliance.

  • Publication number: 20160324798
    Abstract: The present application is directed to poly(orthoester)-based formulations that are effective for the sustained delivery of one or more therapeutic proteins. The formulations additionally maintain the stability and bioactivity (i.e., significantly minimize the degradation and/or aggregation) of the protein contained in the poly(orthoester) matrix during preparation, storage and release.
