    Abstract: Stable pharmaceutical formulations and methods of making same are provided. In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method of making a stable pharmaceutical formulation comprising adding one or more vitrifying additives to an aqueous pharmaceutical solution to raise the glass transition temperature of the aqueous pharmaceutical solution. The aqueous pharmaceutical solution can be cooled to a temperature of about ?50° C. to about ?10° C. The vitrifying additive enhances the formation of a glass or amorphous solid of the aqueous pharmaceutical solution at cryogenic temperatures (?50 to ?10° C.), and the pharmaceutical formulation can be thawed to liquid form and administered to a mammalian subject.

    Abstract: The present invention is based on the discovery that certain fermentation products of the marine actinomycete strains CNB392 and CNB476 are effective inhibitors of hyperproliferative mammalian cells. The CNB392 and CNB476 strains lie within the family Micromonosporaceae, and the generic epithet Salinospora has been proposed for this obligate marine group. The reaction products produced by this strain are classified as salinosporamides, and are particularly advantageous in treating neoplastic disorders due to their low molecular weight, low IC50 values, high pharmaceutical potency, and selectivity for cancer cells over fungi.
