Patent number: 11311529Abstract: Disclosed herein are topical compositions of 5-? reductase inhibitors, such as dutasteride or finasteride, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, or derivative thereof and the use of the compositions for the treatment of hair loss secondary to endocrine therapy in patients with breast cancer (Endocrine Therapy-Induced Alopecia or ETIA), androgenetic alopecia (AGA), alopecia areata, and hirsutism. The topical composition is advantageous over the existing oral compositions of 5-? reductase inhibitors because the topical composition is safer and more effective. The topical formulation may allow for a slow release of the active ingredient dutasteride, better penetration at the therapeutically effective amount of dutasteride with an improved safety profile because it does not need to travel through the bloodstream to be efficacious, thereby minimizing the risk of systemic side effects.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2019Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Varsona Therapeutics, Inc.Inventors: Vinay K.

Patent number: 7846248Abstract: The present invention relates to a paint particularly for plastic materials, comprising one or more acrylic-based resins that can undergo cross linking by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, one or more photo-initiators to induce cross-linking of said acrylic resin (or more resins) in the presence of UV radiation, and one or more fillers. The invention further relates to a method for painting a substrate, such as the housings of cellphones, in which said paint is applied on the material and is made to undergo cross-linking by means of exposure to ultraviolet radiation.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2003Date of Patent: December 7, 2010Assignee: Plastlac S.r.l.Inventors: Gianni Mirone, Giovanni Martini

Publication number: 20100215956Abstract: The invention relates to the use of wax dispersions containing oily waxes as hydrophobizing agent in the production of timber products. In particular, the invention relates to the production of hydrophobized timber products using wax dispersions of paraffinic soft waxes as are either produced directly in the process of mineral oil refining, or are formed in the course of degreasing waxes, and to the timber products thus produced.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2007Publication date: August 26, 2010Inventor: Thomas Buchholz
