摘要:
Conformationally restricted polyamine compounds useful in treatment of cancer and other diseases marked by abnormal cell proliferation are disclosed. Improved methods of synthesizing such compounds are also disclosed. In one method of the invention, a carbene-bearing or carbene equivalent-bearing compound is reacted with the double bond of an alkene compound to form a cyclopropyl ring as the first step in the synthesis.

摘要:
Oligoamine compounds with anti-cancer and anti-proliferative activity are provided, as well as methods for making and using the compounds. The compounds are shown to be active against prostate cancer cell lines and against prostate cancer tumors in mice. The compounds are also useful in treatment of breast cancer and other cancers.
摘要:
Novel conformationally restricted polyamine analogs are provided, as well as compositions comprising these novel polyamine analogs. Methods of using the novel polyamine analogs in treatment of diseases such as cancer are also provided. Also provided is a method of delivering these analogs specifically to tumor cells by covalently attaching polyamine analogs to porphyrin compounds, along with novel polyamine-porphyrin covalent conjugates.
摘要:
Porphyrin-polyamine conjugate compounds are disclosed which have anticancer and antitumor effects. The porphyrin moiety selectively localizes in tumors, while the polyamine moiety serves as a cytotoxic agent. Methods of making and using the porphyrin-polyamine conjugate compounds are also disclosed.
摘要:
Novel quinones are provided, as well as compositions comprising these novel quinones. Methods of using the novel quinones in treatment of various indications including cancer are also provided.
摘要:
Peptide conjugates in which cytocidal and cytostatic agents, such as polyamine analogs or naphthoquinones, are conjugated to a polypeptide recognized and cleaved by enzymes such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and cathepsin B are provided, as well as compositions comprising these conjugates. Methods of using these conjugates in the treatment of prostate diseases are also provided.
摘要:
Combination methods for treatment of cancer and of blood disorders, using PG-11047 ((2Z)-N1,N4-bis[3-(ethy-lammo) propyl]-2-butene-1,4-diamine) and PG-11048 ((2E)-N1,N4-bis[3-(ethylamino)propyl]-2-butene-1,4-diamine) in combination with DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, or both DNA methyltransferase inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors, are disclosed. Hematopoietic cancers, lung cancers, mesothelioma, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), multiple myeloma, solid tumors, and blood disorders such as myelodysplastic syndromes can be treated using the methods of the invention.
摘要:
This disclosure relates to methods of inhibiting vascular hyperplasia using polyamines, polyamine analogs, and conformationally restricted polyamine analogs, or a conjugate of a polyamine, polyamine analog, or conformationally restricted polyamine analog. Polyamines, polyamine analogs, conformationally restricted polyamine analogs, and conjugates thereof are useful in reducing stenosis and restenosis of blood vessels and grafts.
摘要:
This disclosure relates to methods of treating ocular diseases using polyamine analogs, particularly conformationally restricted polyamine analogs. The ocular diseases to be treated include a variety of ophthalmic disorders characterized by angiogenesis and/or neovascularization, including macular degeneration. Both wet macular degeneration and dry macular degeneration can be treated using the methods of the invention. The invention also provides ophthalmic formulations, including sustained release formulations and sustained release devices.
