The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods of using the same.

Topical compositions and methods of using the same

The invention relates to a novel crystallization process for preparing fluticasone propionate as crystalline form 1 polymorph with controlled particle size and suitable for micronization. Said process comprises the step of dissolving fluticasone propionate in acetone or in a mixture of acetone and water and then adding this solution to water or to a mixture of water 10 and acetone, thereby causing fluticasone propionate to crystallize out of the solution as crystalline form.

Process for the preparation of fluticasone propionate form 1

The present invention relates to novel polymorphic forms of 8-fluoro-2-{4-[(methylamino)methyl]phenyl}-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-azepino[5,4,3-cd]indol-6-one, and to processes for their preparation. Such polymorphic forms may be a component of a pharmaceutical composition and may be used to treat a mammalian disease condition mediated by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity including the disease condition such as cancer.

The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods of using the same. A first aspect of the present invention comprises a composition comprising a first viscosity increasing agent; at least one polyhydric alcohol; at least one buffering agent; at least one preservative; a second viscosity increasing agent; at least one organic solvent; at least one humectant; at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient; and water, wherein the composition is buffered to a pH of about 3 to about 11.

The present invention relates generally to topical compositions and methods of using the same.

Provided according to some embodiments of the invention are methods of manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, such methods include homogenizing at a first excipient composition that includes a viscosity agent and at least one solvent to form a first premix composition; separately homogenizing at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and a second excipient composition to form a second premix composition; and combining the first premix composition and the second premix composition to form the composition. The pre-mixing of constituents may increase the stability of the API and provide uniformity of the dispersion of the constituents throughout the final topical composition.

Methods of manufacturing topical compositions and apparatus for the same

Provided according to some embodiments of the invention are methods of making co-condensed macromolecules that include forming a reaction mixture by combining at least one reactant and at least one reagent at a first temperature at which the at least one reactant is substantially unreactive in the presence of the at least one reagent; raising the temperature of the reaction mixture to a second temperature at which the at least one reactant is reactive in the presence of the at least one reagent, wherein the reaction of the at least one reactant in the presence of the at least one reagent produces co-condensed macromolecules such as co-condensed silica macromolecules.

Temperature controlled sol-gel co-condensation

Provided according to some embodiments of the invention are methods of making co-condensed macromolecules that include forming a reaction mixture by combining at leak one reactant and at least one reagent at a first temperature at which the at least one reactant is substantially unreactive in the presence of the at least one reagent; raising the temperature of the reaction mixture to a second temperature at which the at least one reactant is reactive in the presence of the at least one reagent, wherein the reaction of the at least one reactant in the presence of the at least one reagent produces co-condensed macromolecules such as co-condensed silica macromolecules.
