Description
FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

The present disclosure is directed to compositions and methods for personalized and targeted therapeutic treatments, particularly the treatment of pain, inflammation, and infectious diseases in a subject. The present disclosure is also related to combination therapies that including one or more natural cannabinoid compounds and at least one active pharmaceutical ingredient. The present disclosure is also related to labeled natural cannabinoid therapeutic compositions that include a conjugate of a natural cannabinoid compound, a chelator, and a label, that when coupled with imaging may be used to determine in real time optimal dosing and targeting of particular pathways and tissues to provide personalized therapies.


BACKGROUND

Cannabinoids represent a wide range of natural and synthetic compounds whose full-range of therapeutic effects are only beginning to be elucidated. Over 140 different cannabinoids have been isolated from cannabis, each exhibiting various effects. The development of synthetic cannabinoids offers additional therapeutics options for investigation. While there are two known subtypes of cannabinoid receptors, termed CB1 and CB2, there is evidence that additional cannabinoid receptors, e.g., non-CB1 and non-CB2 receptors, may also be present in animals. Further, cannabinoids have also been observed to bind to the G protein-coupled receptor GPR55 in the brain. CB1 receptors are found primarily in the brain, particularly in the basal ganglia and in the limbic system including the hippocampus and the striatum. CB2 receptors are predominantly found in the immune system and the peripheral nervous system. As a result of the differential expression of CB1 and CB2 receptors, and because cannabinoid agonists and antagonists have various binding affinities and selectivities for CB1 and CB2, cannabinoids produce an array of potential therapeutic effects that may be investigated for the treatment of disorders and diseases. There is a need for cannabinoid combination therapy compositions and methods that provide one or more advantages in the treatment of a disease or disorder. Additionally, targeted therapies are needed that target particular pathways and or tissues affected by a disease or disorder.


The diagnosis and treatment of many infectious diseases continues to be poorly understood. In particular, since the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a public health emergency of international concern by the World Health Organization (WHO) on Jan. 30, 2020, the progression of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) virus has reminded us of the critical role of an effective host immune response as well as the devastating effect of immune dysregulation. Accordingly, there is a critical need for an efficient approach for both the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. However, inconsistencies in the diagnosis and stage identification of infectious diseases and their progression persist making identification of appropriate and efficient treatment protocols challenging. In particular, the diagnosis and prognosis of Cytokine Storm and Cytokine Release Syndrome associated with infectious disease progression has proved difficult. Cytokine Storm and Cytokine Release Syndrome are life-threatening systemic inflammatory syndromes involving elevated levels of circulating cytokines and immune-cell hyperactivation that can be triggered by various therapies, pathogens, autoimmune conditions, and monogenic disorders. Furthermore, effective approaches to tailored or targeted treatment of infectious diseases has also been challenging, including attempts at developing vaccines. Accordingly, there is a need for improved approaches for the treatment of infectious diseases as well was as other diseases and disorders. In particular, there is a need for personalized therapies that are responsive to the genetic, epigenetic, or allelic variations in patients or subjects receiving the therapy. There is also a need for therapies that target particular biological pathways and tissues as well as the monitoring of the targeted delivery of therapeutics in real time in order to provide personalized dosage optimization and treatment decisions.
