Disclosed herein are methods of treating moderate to severe eosinophilic asthma in a patient comprising administering a therapeutically effective dose of reslizumab to a patient whose symptoms are inadequately controlled with a current asthma therapeutic and wherein the patient's blood eosinophil levels are equal to or greater than 400/μL.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a preferably nebulizable pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable protein-based nanocarrier preferably in the size range 150 to 300 nm and a preventative or therapeutic amount of an active agent for use in the prevention and/or treatment of an allergic and/or inflammatory disease of the lower airways in a mammal. Preferably, the active agent is a CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG-ODN), and preferably the composition exhibits a prolonged clinical effect.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a cytokine for use in the treatment and/or control of dependent and/or addictive behavior, in particular addiction and/or dependency to nicotine, food addiction, alcohol addiction and/or sex addiction. The present invention also relates to treatment and/or control of withdrawal and/or symptoms of withdrawal from an addiction, in particular nicotine addiction, food addiction, alcohol addiction and/or sex addiction. The present invention further relates to the induction of loss of interest or aversion to the addictive substance or behavior, such as nicotine, over-indulgence in high-calorie, high-fat foods, and to other behaviors or addictions that are hazardous to the health.
摘要:
Articles of manufacturing (such as tobacco products), methods, devices and compositions for preventing or reducing tobacco-associated damage and/or disorders associated with oxidative stress in a subject, and which utilize a TSPO receptor ligand (such as diazepam), are disclosed.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for multicomponent surface modified aerosol particle production suitable for, for instance, therapeutic, cosmetic or diagnostic use in which an aerosol containing an active agent is introduced in an aerosol reactor together with a surface agent or surface agent source and/or precursor and wherein the surface agent and/or surface agent precursor is volatilizable. The surface agent vapor saturation ratio is elevated so to cause it to nucleate from the gas phase. Reactor conditions are maintaining such that the active agent remains in the condensed phase and provides a surface for the surface agent to deposit on the active agent containing aerosol particle thus producing surface modified aerosol particles. The method can be used for batch or continuous production. Particles made according to the method and powders and dispersions containing the particles are also described.
摘要:
The present invention relates to new medicament combinations which contain in addition to one or more, preferably one compound of general formula 1 wherein A, B, R1, X, n and m may have the meanings given in the claims and in the specification, at least one other active substance 2, processes for preparing them and their use as pharmaceutical compositions.
摘要:
Provided are azeotrope-like compositions comprising difluoromethane and trifluoroiodomethane and uses thereof, including use in refrigerant compositions, refrigeration systems, blowing agent compositions, and aerosol propellants.
摘要:
This invention relates generally to a method to provide habitual tobacco users with products, methods and apparatus to reduce and eventually terminate their dependence on nicotine containing products. More specifically, the invention relates to a nicotine-based medicament that is formulated in such a way as to effectively reduce or eliminate the sensations of craving associated with addictive nicotine use.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods and compositions for treating premature ejaculation in a male or prolonging intercourse comprising administering to the male an antidepressant via a route selected from the group consisting of mucosal administration (preferably nasal, buccal or rectal), administration to the lungs (preferably by inhalation), local administration to at least a part of the male genitalia (applied to the penis for example, in the form of a gel) and combinations thereof.
摘要:
The invention relates to carrier particles for use in pharmaceutical compositions for the pulmonary administration of medicaments by means of dry powder inhalers. In particular, the invention relates to a novel technological process for obtaining a carrier modified so as to improve the efficiency of redispersion of active particles and hence increase the respirable fraction. After the treatment of the invention, the surface of said modified carrier particles can also be coated with a suitable additive so as to further improve the respirable fraction.
