Abstract: Described are methods and systems for the treatment of individuals having a disorder characterized by complement system dysregulation. The described methods and systems may be used for a variety of purposes, including for example, establishing one or both of a general or personalized dosing schedule for treatment using a complement inhibitor, establishing a dosage schedule sufficient to maintain an effective amount of complement inhibitor, establishing general dosing schedules for novel complement modifying agents and identifying a treatment regimen and/or dose eliminating the possibility of under dosing medication, and treatment regimen and/or dose for reducing or preventing toxicity in a patient.

Abstract: Methods and compositions disclosed herein generally relate to methods of improving clinical and economic outcomes to address adverse effects related to anesthesia, analgesics, opioids, and inadequate pain relief. Embodiments of the invention relate to the association between genes, specific polymorphisms of genes, and non-genetic factors with inadequate pain relief and anesthesia-, analgesic, and/or opioid-related adverse effects. Embodiments of the invention can be used to determine and manage patient risk factors for development of adverse perioperative effects and can allow for personalized anesthesia and pain management for improvement of pain control and reduction of anesthesia-, analgesic-, and opioid-related adverse outcomes. These methods and compositions apply to non-surgical pain management with opioids.

Abstract: The display device includes a display, a resin member, and a transparent layer. The display includes a first surface on which an image is displayed, a second surface located oppositely to the first surface, and a side surface extending from the first surface to reach the second surface. The resin member includes an inner wall surface at least partially opposed to the side surface of the display, a first surface connected to the inner wall surface and located on the same side as the first surface of the display, and a second surface connected to the inner wall surface and located on the same side as the second surface of the display. The transparent layer includes a second surface spreading in contact with the first surface of the display and the first surface of the resin member, and a first surface located oppositely to the second surface.

Abstract: A DDS preparation of a platinum complex, which selectively releases a highly active platinum complex in cells that are under reducing conditions, and exhibits high antitumor activity that is required from a medicine, is still not available, and there is a demand for a novel DDS preparation of a platinum complex that may be used in clinical fields. There is provided a polymer conjugate of a hexa-coordinated platinum complex, the polymer conjugate comprising a block copolymer having a polyethylene glycol structural moiety and a polyaspartic acid moiety or a polyglutamic acid moiety; and a hexa-coordinated platinum complex having a halogen atom and a hydroxyl group at the axial positions, the hexa-coordinated platinum complex being bonded, directly or via a spacer, to a side-chain carboxyl group of the block copolymer.

Abstract: According to the present invention, there is a demand for novel platinum(IV) complex which has sufficient water-solubility, stability, antitumor activity, and the like that are required as a medicine, and may be used clinically. Thus, provided is a platinum(IV) complex represented by the following General Formula (I) [wherein X1 and X2 each represent a halogen atom or are bonded together to form a dicarboxylate selected from the group consisting of oxalate, malonate, succinate, and o-phthalate; and Y represents a halogen atom.

Abstract: Provided is a polymeric micelle type DDS preparation that may efficiently exhibit pharmacological activity effects by enhancing migration characteristics, penetrability, and retention characteristics toward a diseased target tissue such as a tumor tissue or an inflammation-affected tissue, and thereby enhancing the action of a pharmacologically active substance. Disclosed is a block copolymer (A) having a hydrophilic polymer segment linked to a hydrophobic polymer segment, the hydrophilic polymer segment containing a polyethylene glycol chain, and the hydrophobic polymer segment containing a polyamino acid chain having a hydrophobic substituent in a side chain, wherein the hydrophilic polymer segment has a target binding site bonded thereto, and the main chain polymer combining the polyethylene glycol chain and the polyamino acid chain has a molecular weight of not less than 2 kilodaltons and not more than 10 kilodaltons.

Abstract: A DDS preparation of a platinum complex, which exhibits a superior antitumor effect required as a medicine and reduced side effects, that is, a clinically usable DDS preparation of a platinum complex, which is conjugated to a polymer carrier that is different from conventional carriers, is desired. Provided is a polymer conjugate of a platinum(II) complex, the polymer conjugate including: a block copolymer having a polyethylene glycol structural moiety and a polyaspartic acid moiety or a polyglutamic acid moiety; a sulfoxide derivative introduced into a side-chain carboxyl group of the block copolymer; and a platinum(II) complex coordinate-bonded to a sulfoxide group of the sulfoxide derivative.
