International Classification:
A61K 38/23 A61K 9/52
US Classification:
4241981, 424489
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of treating heart failure and improving renal function, and/or preventing the advancement of heart failure into advanced stages, and methods of counteracting ischemia due to a myocardial infarction by providing improved methods of administering a therapeutically effective amount CGRP as a controlled release formulation. The therapies can be administered on an outpatient or inpatient basis and can further be used as maintenance therapies.

International Classification:
A61K 38/16 A61P 9/00
US Classification:
514 12
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of treating and preventing mortality associated with heart failure and renal insufficiency in a Stage B, C, or D heart failure patient, and for improving quality of life by providing improved methods of administering a therapeutically effective amount CGRP. One method comprise administering between about 50 and about 500 ng/min of CGRP for a time between 30 minutes and 8 hours per day for as many days as needed to provide symptomatic relief, prevent exacerbation of symptoms, and/or prevent and/or delay progression of the disease state of heart failure in said patient. The therapies can be administered on an outpatient or inpatient basis.
Sequence modified calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) compounds are useful for treating heart failure, stroke, hemorrhagic shock, or migraine, improving renal function, preventing or delaying the advancement of heart failure into advanced stages, treating angina, controlling pulmonary hypertension, counteracting ischemia due to a myocardial infarction, preventing vasospasms during angioplasty, preventing reocclusion of blood vessels during and/or after angioplasty, stent insertion, or the implantation of a vascular grafts, and for treating male impotence and female sexual arousal disorder.

Assignee:
Atrix Laboratories, Inc. - Fort Collins CO
International Classification:
A61F 200
US Classification:
424426
Abstract:
Methods are described for assisting the restoration of periodontal tissue in a periodontal pocket and for retarding migration of epithelial cells along the root surface of a tooth. The methods involve placement of an in-situ forming biodegradable barrier adjacent the surface of a tooth. The barrier is microporous and includes pores of defined size. The barrier can include a biologically active agent.
