摘要:
Methods and pharmaceutical compositions for administering protein or gene therapy to tissues or organs having an epithelial cell layer are provided. A protein or nucleic acid encoding the protein is administered to the target tissue or organ in combination with treatment with a delivery enhancing agent which increases the delivery of the interferon or nucleic acid to the cells of the target tissues or organs. The methods and combinations are particularly useful in the treatment of cancers and other conditions responsive to interferon therapy. An exemplary method comprises the transurethral intravesical administration to the bladder of a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising an alpha-interferon or a gene delivery system encoding the interferon and SYN3 or a SYN3 homolog or analog. In the urinary bladder, as much as a 10 to 1000 fold increased in interferon levels and activity may be observed with the use of a SYN3 formulation as opposed to a PBS formulation of the same interferon protein or interferon gene delivery system.

摘要:
A method and pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of cancer using a gene delivery system, such as a viral vector delivery system, comprising a therapeutic gene such as p53 or a retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene wherein the gene delivery system is formulated in a buffer comprising a delivery-enhancing agent such as ethanol or a detergent.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to compositions and methods of treating cancer by gene therapy using a therapeutic gene formulated in a buffer comprising a delivery-enhancing agent. The delivery-enhancing agents of the invention can be used to formulate therapeutic or diagnostic agents, such as proteins, nucleic acids, antisense RNA, small molecules, etc., for administration to any tissue or organ having an epithelial membrane. The delivery-enhancing agents include detergents, alcohols, surfactants and other molecules.
摘要:
Pharmaceutical preparations having an antiphlogistic action are described. The preparations contain, as active ingredient, a benzazole derivative corresponding to the general tautomeric formulae I ##STR1## wherein X represents a sulphur or oxygen atom and R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom and R.sup.2 a hydroxymethyl, formyl, lower carbalkoxy or lower acyl group or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together represent the group ##STR2## wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 denote, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl group, or they contain a physiologically acceptable salt thereof. These pharmaceutical preparations are suitable in particular for the treatment of inflammatory conditions and for inhibiting the lipoxygenase and/or cyclooxygenase route of arachidonic acid metabolism.
