  • a "gel” is a composition that is substantially free of oil (and hence, is not a cream or a lotion).
  • gels of the present invention have a viscosity of at least 1000 Centipoise (cps) at room temperature (i.e., about 25°C).
  • gels of the present invention have a viscosity of no greater than 50,000 cps, and more preferably no greater than 30,000 cps.
  • Aqueous gels are not easily formed using certain IRMs due to the low intrinsic aqueous solubility of the free base (typically, less than 500 ⁇ g at 25°C).
  • a cosolvent is typically used or a salt of the IRM is prepared in situ. This can result in the need for negatively charged thickeners, particularly two negatively charged thickeners, to provide the desirable viscosity.

  • the use of a combination of negatively charged thickeners i.e., at least two is desirable when higher levels of cosolvents are used due to the low solubility of the drug (whether in free base or salt form) in water.

This screening test has been widely adopted in industrialized countries and has had a profound impact on mortality associated with cervical cancers. An abnormal Pap smear prompts close observation for disease progression with the potential for the therapeutic interventions of destruction or excision of cancerous or pre-cancerous tissues. These excisional treatments are expensive, uncomfortable and associated with failure rates that range from 2% to 23% and with higher failure rates reported for the more advanced lesions. Failure rates have recently been documented to approximate 10% following laser treatment.

  • HPV transformation of the normal cell to a dysplastic cell is associated with the HPV encoded oncoproteins (E6 and E7) from the high risk genotypes binding the cell's tumor suppressor gene products p53 and Rb resulting in disruption of the cell cycle control mechanism in which p53 and Rb play an important role.
