Abstract: Communication techniques enable efficient communication to an UE (User Equipment) that is subject to a dominant interference signal that is transmitted by a different base station. Disclosed interference cancellation techniques, both UE-centric and network-centric, are suitable to this situation. These techniques are particularly advantageous when undesirable or difficult to introduce changes in the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers at the existing base stations. UE-centric framework refers to an approach largely implemented by UEs to include pico or femto cells. Network-centric framework closed-loop coordination between base stations and UEs mitigate interference thereby improving network performance. In particular, an interfering base-station can help a "victim" UE by adjusting downlink pilot and control power and to adjust traffic data rates responsive to information that the "victim" UEs provide, including information about the interfering link and performance of the cancellation itself sent over the air or using the backhaul.

Abstract: There is described a method of reducing drug liking a subject comprising the step of administering to the subject an oral pharmaceutical composition comprising: (i) hydromorphone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (ii) naloxone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the oral pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) and (ii) in a weight ratio equal to or less than about 4:1. There is also described use of an oral pharmaceutical composition comprising: (i) hydromorphone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (ii) naloxone or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the oral pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) and (ii) in a weight ratio equal to or less than about 4 : 1 , for reducing drug liking in a subject. The present inventors have conducted clinical studies from which it can be concluded that that drug liking in opioid abusers can be reduced when the weight ratio of (i) and (ii) in an intravenous composition is equal to or less than about 4:1. Based on the these clinical studies, the present inventors have established a reasonable inference that similar results would be obtained in the case of oral pharmaceutical compositions having a corresponding weight ratio of (i) and (ii) ~ i.e., if such an oral composition were to be abused by extraction of (i) and (ii) therefrom, the resulting extraction composition would behave in a similar manner as the intravenous compositions used in the clinical studies reported herein.
