13 . The formulation of claim 1 , comprising about 5 mg/ml to about 120 mg/mL of bendamustine, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
14 . The formulation of claim 1 , comprising at least about 5 mg/mL of bendamustine, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
15 . The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 5° C. for about 30 days to about 365 days.
16 . The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation is stable at about 5° C. for at least about 180 days.
17 . The formulation of claim 1 , wherein analysis of the formulation indicates that the formulation contains no less than about 90% of the amount of bendamustine present prior to exposure to storage conditions.
18 . The formulation of claim 1 , wherein analysis of the formulation indicates that the formulation contains no less than about 95% of the amount of bendamustine present prior to exposure to storage conditions.
19 . The formulation of claim 17 where the storage conditions are about 5° C. for about 30 days to about 365 days.
20 . The formulation of claim 17 where the storage conditions are about 5° C. for at least about 30 days.
21 . The formulation of claim 17 where the storage conditions are about 5° C. for at least about 90 days.
22 . The formulation of claim 17 , where the storage conditions are about 5° C. for at least about 180 days.
23 . The formulation of claim 1 , further comprising at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
24 . The formulation of claim 3 , further comprising at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
25 . The formulation of claim 1 , further comprising an antioxidant, a surfactant, a lipid, a filler, an organic acid, a hydrophilic polymer, a complexing agent, a preservative, or a combination thereof.
26 . The formulation of claim 3 , further comprising an antioxidant, a surfactant, a lipid, a filler, an organic acid, a hydrophilic polymer, a complexing agent, a preservative, or a combination thereof.
27 . The formulation of claim 1 , further comprising at least one anti-neoplastic agent.
28 . The formulation of claim 3 , further comprising at least one anti-neoplastic agent.
29 . The formulation of claim 3 , wherein the formulation comprises 10 moles per liter, or less, of the non-aqueous polar protic solvent.
30 . The formulation of claim 3 , wherein the formulation comprises between about 4 to about 9.5 moles per liter of the non-aqueous polar protic solvent.
