Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides compositions comprising decontaminating compounds, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and methods of treating or preventing a contamination in a mammal, in particular, the composition can include a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone, a coblock polymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, a polyvinyl alcohol, or combinations thereof, and an aqueous suspending agent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A topical composition consisting essentially of: from about 5% to about 20% weight percentage of a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of poloxamer 407 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 10% to about 25% weight percent of Fuller's earth or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 10% weight percent of a phyllosilicate or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 20% to about 50% weight percent of ethanol as part of the total weight of the composition; and from about 10% to about 50% weight percent of water as part of the total weight of the composition. 2. The topical composition of claim 1 , further comprising one or more different types of nanoparticles. 3. A kit comprising the topical composition of claim 1 and an applicator. 4. A method of decontaminating a subject in need thereof comprising: contacting one or more compositions to the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to an agent comprising a radioactive isotope; wherein the composition consisting essentially of: from about 5% to about 20% weight percentage of a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of poloxamer 407 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 10% to about 25% weight percent of Fuller's earth or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 10% weight percent of a phyllosilicate or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 20% to about 50% weight percent of ethanol as part of the total weight of the composition; and from about 10% to about 50% weight percent of water as part of the total weight of the composition. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the step of contacting is performed no less than about 10, 20 or 30 minutes after the subject is exposed to the radioactive isotope. 6. The method of claim 4 further comprising massaging the one or more compositions into the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to the radioactive isotope for about 2 minutes after contacting the composition to the skin of the subject. 7. A method of preventing death of a subject exposed to a radioactive isotope comprising contacting one or more compositions to the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to the radioactive isotope, wherein the composition consisting essentially of: from about 5% to about 20% weight percentage of a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of poloxamer 407 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 10% to about 25% weight percent of Fuller's earth or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 10% weight percent of a phyllosilicate or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 20% to about 50% weight percent of ethanol as part of the total weight of the composition; and from about 10% to about 50% weight percent of water as part of the total weight of the composition. 8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the step of contacting is performed no less than about 10, 20 or 30 minutes after the subject is exposed to the radioactive isotope. 9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the step of contacting is performed no less than about 5 hours after the subject is exposed to the radioactive isotope. 10. A method of decreasing the amount of exposure of a radioactive isotope to the stratum corneum of a subject exposed to the radioactive isotope comprising contacting any one or more compositions to the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to the radioactive isotope, wherein the composition consisting essentially of: from about 5% to about 20% weight percentage of a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of poloxamer 407 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 10% to about 25% weight percent of Fuller's earth or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 10% weight percent of a phyllosilicate or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 20% to about 50% weight percent of ethanol as part of the total weight of the composition; and from about 10% to about 50% weight percent of water as part of the total weight of the composition. 11. A method of treating a subject exposed to one or a plurality of radioactive substances, the method comprising contacting a therapeutically effective dose of one or more compositions to the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to the radioactive substances, wherein the composition consists essentially of: from about 5% to about 20% weight percentage of a mixture of polyvinyl acetate and povidone or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of poloxamer 407 or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 5% weight percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 10% to about 25% weight percent of Fuller's earth or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 1% to about 10% weight percent of a phyllosilicate or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as part of the total weight of the composition; from about 20% to about 50% weight percent of ethanol as part of the total weight of the composition; and from about 10% to about 50% weight percent of water as part of the total weight of the composition. 12. The method of claim 11 , wherein contacting any one or more compositions to the skin of the subject at a location of the subject's body where the skin has been exposed to the radioactive substance occurs no less than about 10 minutes prior to
