| 20090281023 | Mixtures Of Calcitonin Drug-Oligomer Conjugates And Methods Of Use In Pain Treatment - A mixture of conjugates in which each conjugate in the mixture comprises a calcitonin drug coupled to an oligomer that includes a polyalkylene glycol moiety is disclosed. The mixture may lower serum calcium levels in a subject by 10, 15 or even 20 percent or more. Moreover, the mixture may be more effective at surviving an in vitro model of intestinal digestion than non-conjugated calcitonin. Furthermore, the mixture may exhibit a higher bioavailability than non-conjugated calcitonin. The compositions of this invention are useful in the treatment of various bone disorders and pain. | 11-12-2009 |
