Abstract:
The present invention relates to a combination therapy of propane-1-sulfonic acid {3-[5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl]-2,4-difluoro-phenyl}-amide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and an EGFR inhibitor for treating a patient suffering from a proliferative disorder, in particular a solid tumor, for example, colorectal cancer, melanoma, and thyroid cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a combination therapy of propane-1-sulfonic acid{3-[5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl-2,4-difluoro-phenyl]-amide}, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and an interferon for treating a patient suffering from a proliferative disorder, in particular a solid tumor, for example, colorectal cancer, melanoma, and thyroid cancer. In particular, the present invention relates to such a therapy wherein the interferon is peginterferon alfa-2a and the disorder is melanoma containing the V600E b-Raf mutation.

Abstract:
A radio frequency identification device includes an integrated circuit including a receiver, a transmitter, and a microprocessor. The receiver and transmitter together define an active transponder. The integrated circuit is preferably a monolithic single die integrated circuit including the receiver, the transmitter, and the microprocessor. Because the device includes an active transponder, instead of a transponder which relies on magnetic coupling for power, the device has a much greater range.

Systems and methods for reduction of pollutants in combustion processes using combined rotating opposed fired air (ROFA) and fuel injection sorbents (FSI) for increased chemical reactivity.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for treating tumors or tumor metastases in a patient, comprising administering to the patient simultaneously or sequentially a therapeutically effective amount of an EGFR kinase inhibitor and irinotecan combination, with or without additional agents or treatments, such as other anti-cancer drugs or radiation therapy. The invention also encompasses a pharmaceutical composition that is comprised of an EGFR kinase inhibitor and irinotecan combination in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A preferred example of an EGFR kinase inhibitor that can be used in practicing this invention is the compound erlotinib HCl (also known as Tarceva™).
Abstract:
A trolley includes a front wheel assemblie (12) and a rear wheel assembly both assemblies mounted on a trolley frame. The front wheel assembly (12) includes a fixed wheel assembly (24) to aid control of the trolley. In one form the front wheel assembly (12) includes a pair of swivel castors (18) and a fixed wheel assembly (24) disposed between the castors (18). The front wheel assembly (12) is designed so that when the castors (18) swivel from their orientation for forward travel, the fixed wheel assembly (24) is caused to be lifted off the ground. The trolley also includes a camming device which is operative to lift the front wheel assembly (12) off the ground when the trolley is moved into a nested configuration with a like trolley.
Abstract:
A memory device is described which has memory storage cells coupled to data bit lines. Sense amplifier circuits are provided to receive input from the data bit lines and produce an output in response thereto. The memory includes circuitry which shifts the input to the sense amplifiers. Data bit lines from a neighboring sense amplifier is shifted to another sense amplifier such that redundant memory storage cells and data bit lines can be substituted for defective ones.
Abstract:
A semiconductor wafer comprises a plurality of individual dies containing integrated circuits which are substantially isolated from each other. The wafer is severable between the dies to physically singulate the dies from each other. The wafer includes test cycling circuitry for test cycling the individual dies. A Vcc bus and a Vss bus overly a passivation layer and are electrically connected through the passivation layer with Vcc and Vss pads associated with the individual dies.
