The present disclosure provides a dry powder composition of treprostinil prodrugs and a method of treating pulmonary hypertension (e.g., pulmonary arterial hypertension), portopulmonary hypertension, or pulmonary fibrosis in a patient in need thereof. The dry powder composition includes (a) from about 0.1 wt % to about 3 wt % of a compound of Formula (I): or an enantiomer, diastereomer, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, (b) from about 0.01 wt % to about 3 wt % of DSPE-PEG2000, (c) from about 10 wt % to about 50 wt % of leucine, and the balance being (d) a sugar selected from the group consisting of trehalose and mannitol. The entirety of (a), (b), (c), and (d) is 100 wt %, and Ris tetradecyl, pentadecyl, hexadecyl, heptadecyl, or octadecyl. The method includes administering an effective amount of the dry powder composition to the lungs of the patient by inhalation via a dry powder inhaler. In certain compositions and methods provided herein, Ris hexadecyl, e.g., linear hexadecyl.

Dry powder compositions of treprostinil prodrugs and methods of use thereof

The present invention provides certain lipo-glycopeptide cleavable derivatives and methods for using the same for the treatment of bacterial infections, for example, pulmonary bacterial infections. The LGPC derivatives include a cleavable moiety that in certain embodiments, is designed to allow for cellular uptake and/or a more rapid clearance of the glycopeptide metabolite (i.e., the cleaved glycopeptide) from the site of administration (e.g., the lung) as compared to the uncleaved LGPC.

Lipo-glycopeptide cleavable derivatives and uses thereof

Prostacyclin compounds and compositions comprising the same are provided herein. Specifically, prostacyclin compounds comprising treprostinil covalently linked to a linear C-Calkyl, branched C-Calkyl, linear C-Calkenyl, branched C-Calkenyl, aryl, aryl-C-Calkyl or an amino acid or a peptide (e.g., dipeptide, tripeptide, tetrapeptide) are described. The linkage, in one embodiment, is via a carbamate, amide or ester bond. Prostacyclin compounds provided herein can also include at least one hydrogen atom substituted with at least one deuterium atom. Methods for treating pulmonary hypertension (e.g., pulmonary arterial hypertension) and portopulmonary hypertension are also provided.

Prostacyclin compounds, compositions and methods of use thereof

Methods for making prodrugs of treprostinil and treprostinil derivatives are provided. Specifically, methods are provided herein for producing prostacyclin compounds comprising treprostinil covalently linked to a linear C-Calkyl, branched C-Calkyl, linear C-Calkenyl, branched C-Calkenyl, aryl, aryl-C-Calkyl or an amino acid or a peptide (e.g., dipeptide, tripeptide, tetrapeptide). The linkage, in one embodiment, is via an amide or ester bond. Prostacyclin compounds provided herein can also include at least one hydrogen atom substituted with at least one deuterium atom. The compounds provided herein can be used to treat pulmonary hypertension (e.g., pulmonary arterial hypertension) and portopulmonary hypertension.

Methods of manufacturing treprostinil and treprostinil derivative prodrugs

In one aspect, the invention provides a stabilized lipid-based glycopeptide antibiotic composition and a process for producing the same. In another aspect, the invention provides methods for treating a bacterial pulmonary infection by administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of the stabilized lipid-based glycopeptide antibiotic composition.

Stabilized vancomycin formulations

Methods for making prodrugs of trepreostinil and treprostinil derivatives are provided. Specifically, methods are provided herein for producing prostacyclin compounds comprising treprostinil covalently linked to a linear C-Calkyl, branched C-Calkyl, linear C-Calkenyl, branched C-Calkenyl, aryl, aryl-C-Calkyl or an amino acid or a peptide (e.g., dipeptide, tripeptide, tetrapeptide). The linkage, in one embodiment, is via an amide or ester bond. Prostacyclin compounds provided herein can also include at least one hydrogen atom substituted with at least one deuterium atom. The compounds provided herein can be used to treat pulmonary hypertension (e.g., pulmonary arterial hypertension) and portopulmonary hypertension.

The present invention relates, in part, to a composition comprising a multicationic drug and an organic multianion. In some embodiments, the multicationic drug is enclosed within a carrier. In some embodiments, the carrier is a liposome. In some embodiments, the multicationic drug and organic multianion are enclosed within a carrier, while in other embodiments, the multicationic drug is enclosed within the carrier and the organic multianion is outside the carrier. The present invention also relates, in part, to a method of treating a subject for pulmonary distress comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the aforementioned composition.

Compositions of multicationic drugs for reducing interactions with polyanionic biomolecules and methods of use thereof

Provided are lipid antiinfective formulations substantially free of anionic lipids with a lipid to antiinfective ratio is about 1:1 to about 4:1, and a mean average diameter of less than about 1 &#x3bc;m. Also provided is a method of preparing a lipid antiinfective formulation comprising an infusion process. Also provided are lipid antiinfective formulations wherein the lipid to drug ratio is about 1:1 or less, about 0.75:1 or less, or about 0.50:1 or less prepared by an in line fusion process. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a patient with a pulmonary infection comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a lipid antiinfective formulation of the present invention. The present invention also relates to a method of treating a patient for cystic fibrosis comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a lipid antiinfective formulation of the present invention.
