摘要:
Treatment of warm-blooded animals having a tumor or non-malignant hypervascularation, by administering a sufficient amount of a cytotoxic agent formulated into a phosphate prodrug form having substrate specificity for microvessel phosphatases, so that microvessels are destroyed preferentially over other normal tissues, because the less cytotoxic prodrug form is converted to the highly cytotoxic dephosphorylated form.
摘要:
A diverse set of tubulin binding ligands have been discovered which are structurally characterized, in a general sense, by a semi-rigid molecular framework capable of maintaining aryl—aryl, pseudo pi stacking distances appropriate for molecular recognition of tubulin. In phenolic or amino form, these ligands may be further functionalized to prepare phosphate esters, phosphate salts, and phosphoramidates capable of demonstrating selective targeting and destruction of tumor cell vasculature.
摘要:
Methoxy and ethoxy substituted 3-aroyl-2-arylbenzo[b]thiophenes and benzo[b]thiophene analogues are described for use in inhibiting tubulin polymerization. The compounds' use for treating tumor cells is also described. Additional aspects described here are certain diaryl ether benzo[b]thiophene derivatives. Also described are particular analogs derived from dihydronaphthalene which have proven particularly effective. Certain new benzofuran analogs are described, as well as certain sulfur oxide benzo[b]thiophene analogs. Important compounds described herein include the first nitrogen-containing derivatives of combretastatin. These include nitro, amino and azide combrdtastatin derivatives.
摘要:
This invention relates to novel tricyclic quinone and catechol compositions, compositions containing prodrugs of tricyclic quinone and catechol compositions, and methods of use for the treatment of solid tumor cancers and other vascular proliferative disorders. In certain aspects, the compositions of the invention are capable of generating both a vascular targeting effect and tumor cell cytotoxicity (e.g., by oxidative stress) in order to achieve an enhanced anti-tumor response in a patient.

摘要:
Provided herein are compounds and compositions which comprise the formulae as disclosed herein, wherein the compound is an amyloid binding compound. An amyloid binding compound according to the invention may be administered to a patient in amounts suitable for in vivo imaging of amyloid deposits, and distinguish between neurological tissue with amyloid deposits and normal neurological tissue. Amyloid probes of the invention may be used to detect and quantitate amyloid deposits in diseases including, for example, Down's syndrome, familial Alzheimer's Disease. In another embodiment, the compounds may be used in the treatment or prophylaxis of neurodegenerative disorders. Also provided herein are methods of allowing the compound to distribute into the brain tissue, and imaging the brain tissue, wherein an increase in binding of the compound to the brain tissue compared to a normal control level of binding indicates that the mammal is suffering from or is at risk of developing a neurodegenerative disease.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods for treating cancer in a patient in need of such treatment, the method includes prequalifying a patient's therapeutic treatment by performing a molecular imaging procedure to the patient using a labeled biomarker specific for a cancer target at the tumor site; and administering a therapeutic effective amount of a compound comprising a targeting agent linked to a chemotherapeutic or a targeting agent linked to an antibody. Embodiments of the present invention also include compounds and compositions for using such methods.
