摘要:
The invention provides a method for treating cancer in a human comprising (a) administering to the human a dose of a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and (ii) an adenoviral vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a human TNF-α and operably linked to a promoter, wherein the dose comprises about 4×107 to about 4×1012 particle units (pu) of adenoviral vector, at least once in a therapeutic period comprising up to about 10 weeks, (b) administering a dose of ionizing radiation to the human over the duration of the therapeutic period, and (c) administering a dose of one or more chemotherapeutics to the human over the duration of the therapeutic period, whereby the cancer in the human is treated.
摘要:
The invention provides a method for treating cancer in a human comprising administering to the human a dose of a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and (ii) an adenoviral vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding TNF-α operably linked to a promoter, wherein the dose comprises about 1×107 to about 4×1012 particle units (pu) of replication-deficient adenoviral vector, at least once in a therapeutic period comprising up to 10 weeks, whereby the cancer in human is treated. The invention further provides a method of treating a human for multiple tumors, wherein the method comprises contacting a first tumor with a dose of the pharmaceutical composition at least once in a therapeutic period comprising up to about 10 weeks, whereby the human is treated for the first tumor and one or more additional tumors.
摘要:
Methods and structures are provided for conformal lining of dual damascene structures in semiconductor devices that contain porous or low k dielectrics. Features, such as trenches and contact vias are formed in the dielectrics. The features are subjected to low-power plasma predeposition treatment to irregularities on the porous surfaces and/or reactively form an permeation barrier before a diffusion barrier material is deposited on the feature. The diffusion barrier may, for example, be deposited by CVD using metalorganic vapor reagents. The feature is then filled with copper metal and further processed to complete a dual damascene interconnect. The plasma predeposition treatment advantageously reduces the amount of permeation of the metalorganic reagent into the interlayer dielectric.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method to improve adhesion of barrier, metal, dielectric interfaces. In the process flow, a first barrier material is formed on a dielectric layer and bombarded with a plasma to effectively push the barrier material into the dielectric interface while leaving a portion of the barrier material over the dielectric. A second barrier material, which may or may not be the same as the first barrier material, is then formed on the remaining first barrier material. Advantageously, the method of the present invention allows the barrier material to be pushed into the dielectric to insure excellent adhesion, which prevents chemical mechanical polishing delamination. Furthermore, the presence of the first barrier material on the sidewalls of via apertures through the dielectric can prevent Cu poisoning from sputtered Cu or CxOy.
