The method comprises the steps of treating the patient with seven or more daily doses of mifepristone over a period of seven or more days; testing the serum levels of the patient to determine whether the blood levels of mifepristone are greater than 1631 ng/mL; and adjusting the daily dose of the patient to achieve mifepristone blood levels greater than 1631 ng/mL.

  • Publication number: 20200261472
    Abstract: The invention provides liquid formulation compositions and medicament delivery devices, and methods for preparing and using the same. For example, the liquid formulation composition is an emulsion including a solvent and liquid particles, which includes surfactants and are dispersed in the solvent. The volume average particle size of the liquid particles is less than about 100 ?m; the surface tension of the liquid formulation composition is less than about 60 mN/m; and the absolute value of zeta potential is greater than about 15 mV. The containment vessel may be a sprayer or a dropping device. The invention also provides methods for preparation of the liquid formulation compositions and medicament delivery devices as well as methods for using the same in treatment of various diseases and condition, for example, otitis media, otitis externa, rhinitis, sinusitis, lower respiratory tract inflammation, xerostomia (dry mouth), xerophthalmia (dry eyes) and xeromycteria (dry nose).

  • Publication number: 20200261477
    Abstract: The present discovery pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds. More specifically the present discovery pertains to a particular 1-di-alkyl-phosphinoyl-alkane, 1-(Diisopropyl-phosphinoyl)-nonane, referred to herein as “DIPA-1-9”. DIPA-1-9, is able to selectively treat (e.g., suppress) sensory discomfort arising from the airways without side effects. Compared to structurally similar compounds, DIPA-1-9 did not have the problems of excessive cold, stinging, or irritancy, or of adverse taste. To deliver the DIPA-1-9 to the upper airway it is formulated as a solution of DIPA-1-9 in water, a water-based solution, or syrup, at a concentration of 2 to 10 mg/mL and a delivery volume of less than 0.5 mL per unit dose. The drops of DIPA-1-9 are administered into the nasal cavity or onto the base of the tongue, next to the pillars of fauces. The DIPA-1-9 then reaches the nerve endings at the base of the epithelia and transduces signals of coolness and cold.

  • Publication number: 20200261478
    Abstract: The field of the present invention is that of fosfomycin formulations for parenteral administration, in particular for intravenous administration. Formulations of the prior art provide fosfomycin as a powder to be diluted directly prior to the administration. The aim of the invention is to provide a fosfomycin formulation for parenteral administration which is easier to produce and administer or which lowers the risk of puncture injuries for healthcare professionals and the health risks for the patients (for example due to contamination or incorrect dosages) by preventing additional processing steps. During the course of the invention, it was surprisingly shown that fosfomycin is much more stable in an aqueous solution than what is commonly assumed.
