    Abstract: A dosing regimen for formulations that contain a therapeutic dosage of a site 1 sodium channel blocker, where the dosing regimen provides a prolonged nerve block and is in an effective amount to delay the onset of neuropathic pain, such as hyperalgesia and/or allodynia, for at least one week, and preferably longer at the site, and preferably the region (e.g. entire limb), where the nerve block was applied. The site 1 sodium channel blocker is preferably saxitoxin (STX), preferably in combination with a corticosteroid, preferably dexamethasone. In a preferred embodiment, liposomes are included in the formulation as a controlled release system, producing prolonged duration of block without systemic toxicity. As demonstrated by the examples, encapsulating STX in a controlled release system, such as liposomes, preferably also including a corticosteroid, and administering in suitable dosing regimen to achieve a prolonged nerve block without systemic toxicity, delays the onset of hyperalgesia.

  • Patent number: 8975268
    Abstract: Since each of the site I sodium channel blockers have a unique activity and cannot be used to extrapolate the same effective dosage for another site I sodium channel blocker, studies were conducted to identify dosages of neosaxitoxin (“NeoSTX”) and bupivacaine, alone or in combination with epinephrine, to provide two to three days of pain relief in humans. Bupivacaine-NeoSTX combinations produce more reliable blockade and longer duration blockade compared to NeoSTX alone. The three-way combination of NeoSTX-bupivacaine-epinephrine produces more prolonged local anesthesia than the two-way combination of NeoSTX-bupivacaine. Addition of epinephrine to this NeoSTX-bupivacaine combination dramatically prolongs the duration of complete blockade to a mechanical stimulus. These results led to development of specific combination dosage formulations.

  • Patent number: 8975269
    Abstract: The present invention provides a catalyst complex or ligand, and compositions thereof, for use in a variety of organic reactions having high reactivity and enantioselectivity. The catalyst is a N-heterocyclic carbene having three fused rings with first and second rings being six-membered rings and the third being a five-membered ring. The first ring is fused to the second and has four substituents. The second ring has two nitrogens flanking a carbene atom with one nitrogen bound to a substituent. The carbene atom may optionally be bonded to a metal. The third ring is fused to the second ring and contains two nitrogens. The third ring of the catalyst has a double bond and two substituents on adjacent non-fused carbons. A non-fused nitrogen of the third ring is partially bonded to another substituent. Methods for the synthesis and use of the catalyst embodiments of the present invention are also provided.
