Disclosed herein are methods of treating conditions of the eye comprising delivering an effective amount of a composition comprising tobramycin or a tobramycin derivative exhibiting similar properties complexed to an agent which facilitates improved permeation of corneal cells, retention in corneal cells, or both. In aspects, such compositions further comprise, or such methods further comprise associated administration of (e.g., as a combined product or via co-administration), one or more additional active agents capable of supporting the treatment of the indication for which the compounds of the invention are directed, such as additional antibacterial compounds, anti-inflammatory agents (e.g., steroids), and the like.

Methods of treating eye disease with tobramycin-related compositions

Provided here are new ophthalmological methods for the treatment or prophylaxis of ocular bacterial infections and related conditions comprising delivering an effective amount of an ophthalmologically suitable composition comprising an effective amount of a moxifloxacin compound and an effective amount of a triamcinolone compound. In aspects, methods comprise delivery of the composition by injection. In aspects, the delivered compositions are stable suspensions, which maintain physical stability and chemical stability for extended periods of time (e.g., exhibiting no sustained flocculation, coagulation, or clumping after several months of storage under typical storage conditions). In aspects, compositions are suspensions that include a suspension component comprising one or more suspension agents. In aspects, the suspension component includes an ionic suspension and may also or alternatively comprises a non-ionic surfactant, non-ionic suspension agent, or both, or, an agent that provides both functions. In aspects, such compositions further comprise an effective amount of a chelating agent.

Trimcinolone and moxifloxacin methods

Disclosed herein are compositions comprising tobramycin or a tobramycin derivative that exhibit improvements in permeation of corneal cells, retention in corneal cells, or both. Such compositions can comprise tobramycin or tobramycin derivative(s) complexed to an agent which facilitates improved permeation of corneal cells, retention in corneal cells, or both. The invention also relates to a process of preparing such compositions.

Tobramycin compound conjugate formulations

Tobramycin compound-copolymer conjugates and derivative compositions

Disclosed herein are new compositions comprising (1) an antibacterial component comprising (a) a complex comprising (i) an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) wherein the active pharmaceutical ingredient is tobramycin, a similar compound, or a derivative of either thereof and (ii) a complexing agent, or (b) a derivative of tobramycin or a similar compound comprising one or more conjugates/derivatizing groups, wherein the complexing agent or conjugate(s) cause a detectable increase in API permeation of corneal cells, retention in corneal cells, or both, as compared to the non-complexed or non-derivatized API, and (2) an effective amount of an anti-inflammatory agent, such as dexamethasone or another dexamethasone compound. This disclosure also describes new methods of using such compositions, producing such compositions, and the like.
