Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compounds that form covalent bonds with Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk). Also described are irreversible inhibitors of Btk. Methods for the preparation of the compounds are disclosed. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include the compounds. Methods of using the Btk inhibitors are disclosed, alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents, for the treatment of autoimmune diseases or conditions, heteroimmune diseases or conditions, cancer, including lymphoma, and inflammatory diseases or conditions.
Abstract:
Described herein are irreversible kinase inhibitor compounds, methods for synthesizing such irreversible inhibitors, and methods for using such irreversible inhibitors in the treatment of diseases. Further described herein are methods, assays and systems for determining an appropriate irreversible inhibitor of a protein, including a kinase.
Abstract:
Dosing regimens, methods of treatment, controlled release formulations, and combination therapies that include an HDAC inhibitor, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are described.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are the methods and compositions for the improved synthesis of texaphyrin metal complexes. The improved synthesis results in high-purity compositions of texaphyrin metal complexes in which more than about 98% of the texaphyrin metal complexes in the composition have the same structure and/or the same molecular weight. Further described herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising such high-purity compositions, and the use of such high-purity compositions in the treatment of cancer and cardiovascular diseases and disorders.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel compositions comprising, (i) at least one of Taxol, Taxotere, bleomycin, carmustine, carboplatin, and doxorubicin; and (ii) MGd, a compound of Formula I. The present invention also relates to and methods of using said compositions to treat Cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for treating disease of a subject in need thereof by sensitizing the effects of a co-therapeutic agent in macrophages. The method comprises administering a texaphyrin and a co-therapeutic agent to the subject. Texaphyrins are provided for enhancing the cytotoxicity of therapeutic agents in macrophage-mediated disease since texaphyrins have been shown to accumulate in macrophage.
Abstract:
The use of texaphyrins for ocular diagnosis and therapy is provided, especially use of photosensitive texaphyrins for photodynamic therapy of conditions of the eye characterized by abnormal vasculature, such as macular degeneration, or pterygium, for example. The photosensitive texaphyrin may be a free-base texaphyrin or may be metallated with a diamagnetic metal. Preferably, the photosensitive texaphyrin is metallated with lutetium. Due to the dual wavelength absorption of texaphyrins, i.e., at 400-500 nm and at 700-800 nm, especially about 732 nm, as compared to porphyrins, texaphyrins are more effective and versatile for use in humans as compared to porphyrins. Texaphyrins serve as effective contrast agents in ocular angiography.
Abstract:
Texaphyrins are selectively retained in diseased tissue cells. When exposed to low level, non-thermal sonodynamic agent such as ultrasound, the texaphyrin-incorporated cells are selectively destroyed. There is provided a method of sonodynamic therapy by administering an effective amount of an intracellular sensitizer to a mammal in need thereof and providing an effective amount of a sonodynamic agent.
