| 20090263372 | PHARMACEUTICAL PREPARATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF THE SYMPTOMS OF ADDICTION AND METHOD OF DIAGNOSING SAME - A therapeutic agent for the treatment of the symptoms of addiction and the method for preparing the therapeutic agent is disclosed. The therapeutic agent is a stable pharmaceutical preparation containing, but not limited to, digestive/pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic agent may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic agent may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using of a biomarker, the presence of chymotrypsin in the gastrointestinal tract to determine the presence of symptoms of addiction, and the likelihood of relapsing into addiction is disclosed. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20090285790 | METHODS OF TREATING AND DIAGNOSING PARKINSONS DISEASE AND RELATED DYSAUTONOMIC DISORDERS - A method for treating a Parkinson's patient with digestive/pancreatic enzymes involves administering an effective amount of digestive/pancreatic enzymes to an individual having the disorder in order to improve a symptom of the disorder. In addition, a method is provided for determining whether an individual has, or may develop, Parkinson's disease or related dysautonomic disorders and for determining whether an individual will benefit from the administration of pancreatic/digestive enzymes to treat the dysautonomic disorder. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20090286270 | METHOD FOR TREATING PERVASIVE DEVELOPMENT DISORDERS - A method of utilizing the chymotrypsin level of an individual as a measure of the success of secretin, other neuropeptides, and peptides or digestive enzyme administration to such individuals, and in particular, as a prognosticative of potential secretin, other neuropeptides, peptides, and digestive enzyme administration for persons having ADD, ADHD, Autism and other PDD related disorders. In one aspect, a method for determining the efficacy of secretin, other neuropeptides, peptides, or digestive enzymes for the treatment of an individual diagnosed with a pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) comprises obtaining a sample of feces from an individual, determining a quantitative level of chymotrypsin present in the sample, and correlating the quantitative level of chymotrypsin determined to be present in the sample with the PDD to determine the efficacy of treating the individual with secretin, other neuropeptides, peptides, or digestive enzyme administration. In another aspect, a therapeutic method for treating an individual diagnosed with a PDD pervasive developmental disorder comprises determining the efficacy of secretin, other neuropeptides, peptides, and digestive enzyme administration for the treatment of the individual based on a measure of the individual's chymotrypsin level, and administering secretin, other neuropeptides, peptides, or digestive enzymes to the individual based on the determination of the measure of the individual's chymotrypsin level. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20090324572 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF SYMPTOMS OF WILLIAMS SYNDROME - A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of Williams Syndrome and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic composition is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive and/or pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic composition may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic composition may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as a biomarker for the presence of Williams Syndrome, or the likelihood of an individual to develop Williams Syndrome is disclosed. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20090324730 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF SYMPTOMS OF COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME - A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of complex regional pain syndrome and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic composition is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive and/or pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic composition may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic composition may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as a biomarker for the presence of complex regional pain syndrome, or the likelihood of an individual to develop complex regional pain syndrome is disclosed. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100092447 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF SYMPTOMS OF PRION DISEASES - A therapeutic composition for the treatment of the symptoms of prion diseases and the method for preparing the therapeutic agents is disclosed. The therapeutic composition is a stable pharmaceutical composition comprising one or more digestive and/or pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic composition may be manufactured by a variety of encapsulation technologies. Delivery of the therapeutic composition may be made orally, through injection, by adherence of a medicated patch or other method. Further, a method of using fecal chymotrypsin level as a biomarker for the presence of a prion disease, or the likelihood of an individual to develop a prion disease is disclosed. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20100169409 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS EMPLOYING REMOTE DATA GATHERING AND MONITORING FOR DIAGNOSING, STAGING, AND TREATMENT OF PARKINSONS DISEASE, MOVEMENT AND NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS, AND CHRONIC PAIN - This disclosure relates to early diagnosis and assessment tools for Parkinson's disease, movement disorder, neurological disease, and/or chronic pain, designed to drive innovation and to accelerate best Parkinson's disease, movement disorders, neurological disease, and chronic pain research. The present disclosure facilitates improved access to | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100233218 | COMBINATION ENZYME FOR CYSTIC FIBROSIS - A stable preparation of digestive/pancreatic enzymes which can be readily formed into a dosage formulation is provided as a treatment of pancreatic insufficiency in persons having cystic fibrosis. The dosage formulation can be administered either by an oral preparation including, but not limited to, a microcapsule, mini-capsule, time released capsule, sprinkle or other methodology. A further object of this invention is to provide a stabilized preparation of a combination medicant which resists degradation by light, heat, humidity or association with commonly used excipients. | 09-16-2010 |
