摘要:
Biocompatible intraocular implants, such as microparticles, include a prostamide component and a biodegradable polymer that is effective in facilitating release of the prostamide component into an eye for an extended period of time. The prostamide component may be associated with a biodegradable polymer matrix, such as a matrix of a two biodegradable polymers. Or, the prostamide component may be encapsulated by the polymeric component. The present implants include oil-in-oil emulsified implants or microparticles. Methods of producing the present implants are also described. The implants may be placed in an eye to treat or reduce a at least one symptom of an ocular condition, such as glaucoma.

This invention relates to the sterilization of polymeric material by irradiation for use in a body of a mammal. We have surprisingly discovered that the sterilization of polymeric materials for use in a mammal by irradiation is improved by reducing the temperature at which the irradiation is carried out. One aspect of this invention relates to a sterilized polymeric material for use in a body of a mammal wherein said polymeric material is sterilized by irradiation at a reduced temperature Another aspect of this invention relates to methods of sustained delivery of a therapeutically active agent to a mammal by using a polymeric material that has been sterilized at a reduced temperature by irradiation.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a carrier in oil-in-water emulsion form, containing a very small amount of a surface-active agent so that the emulsion is stable, well-tolerated, and nonirritating. The present invention also relates to a method for preparing a carrier according to the invention and to the use of such a carrier as a base for compositions to be applied onto sensitive human or animal body tissue, particularly in dermatological or dermocosmetic compositions.

摘要:
An oil-in-water type emulsion contains a very small quantity of surfactant, so that the emulsion is stable, well tolerated and non-irritating.The emulsion is used as the base for compositions intended to be applied to sensitive tissues of the body of a human or animal, in particular in ophthalmic, dermatological and dermocosmetic compositions.
摘要:
The present invention provides a drug-dendrimer conjugate comprising a central core, two or more linear hydrophilic molecules bonded thereto, a secondary core molecule bonded to at least a majority, if not all, of said first linear hydrophilic molecules, a drug or other biologically-active molecule bonded to the remainder of said first linear hydrophilic molecules or bonded to a segment comprising a second secondary core molecule which is bonded to said first secondary core molecule by a linear hydrophilic molecule, and wherein at least some of the bonds between said drug or other biologically active molecule and said first and/or second secondary core molecules are hydrolysable by an endogenous esterase.
摘要:
Biocompatible intraocular implants include a retinoid component and a biodegradable polymer that is effective to facilitate release of the retinoid component into an eye for an extended period of time. The therapeutic agents of the implants may be associated with a biodegradable polymer matrix, such as a matrix that is substantially free of a polyvinyl alcohol. The implants may be placed in an eye to treat or reduce the occurrence of one or more ocular conditions, such as retinal damage, including glaucoma and proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
摘要:
Biocompatible intraocular microspheres include a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a biodegradable polymer that is effective to facilitate release of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor into the vitreous of an eye for an extended period of time. The therapeutic agents of the microspheres can be associated with a biodegradable polymer matrix, such as a matrix that is substantially free of a polyvinyl alcohol. The microspheres can be placed into an eye to treat or reduce the occurrence of one or more ocular conditions.
