Abstract:
The present invention provides for a derivative of monoterpene or sesquiterpene, such as a perillyl alcohol derivative. For example, the perillyl alcohol derivative may be a perillyl alcohol carbamate. The perillyl alcohol derivative may be perillyl alcohol conjugated with a therapeutic agent such as a chemotherapeutic agent. The present invention also provides for a method of treating a disease such as cancer, comprising the step of delivering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of a derivative of monoterpene (or sesquiterpene). The route of administration may vary, and can include, inhalation, intranasal, oral, transdermal, intravenous, subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for purifying a monoterpene or sesquiterpene having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The process comprises the steps of derivatizing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) to produce a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, separating the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, and releasing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) from the derivative. Also encompassed by the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The purified monoterpene can be used to treat a disease such as cancer. The present monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) may be administered alone, or may be co-administered with radiation or other therapeutic agents, such as chemotherapeutic agents.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition is provided which includes perillyl alcohol conjugated with a therapeutic agent and further includes and a hydrolyzable acylated aliphatic tail. A method of using the pharmaceutical composition is also provided for treating a condition or disease of a patient, e.g., cancer.
Abstract:
The present invention, provides for a deuterium-enriched monoterpene or sesquiterpene such as perillyl alcohol, or a deuterium-enriched isomer or analog of monoterpenes or sesquiterpenes, such as isoperillyl alcohol. The present invention also provides for a deuterium-enriched derivative of a monoterpene or sesquiterpene, such as a perillyl alcohol carbamate or a deuterium-enriched derivative of an isomer or analog of a monoterpene or sesquiterpene, such as an isoperillyl alcohol carbamate. The deuterium-enriched derivative may be perillyl alcohol or isoperillyl alcohol conjugated with a therapeutic agent such as a chemotherapeutic agent. The present invention also provides for a method of treating a disease such as cancer, comprising the step of delivering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of a deuterium-enriched compound.
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a perillyl alcohol (POH) carbamate, such as POH-Rolipram. The present invention also provides for a method of treating a disease such as cancer, by delivering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of POH-Rolipram.
