摘要:
The invention provides a water-soluble prodrug compound comprising a therapeutically effective moiety coupled via a metabolically cleavable bond to a protein binding moiety, wherein said therapeutically effective moiety has an anticancer, antiinflammatory, antiinfective or antipain effect, said protein binding moiety binds non-covalently to blood proteins, and the protein binding of said compound is at least 100% higher than that of the therapeutically effective moiety itself, with the exclusion of (i) the monoester of gemcitabine with azelaic acid, (ii) the monoester of dideoxycytidine with 1,12-dodecanedicarboxylic acid, (iii) 2-amino-1,9-dihydro-9(2′-(1-(10-acetyl-decanoyloxy)ethoxymethyl))-guanine, (iv) 5′-cytarabine monoester with 1,4-phenylene diacetic acid, (v) the monoester of metronidazole with 1,4-butanedicarboxylic acid, and (vi) the monoester of metronidazole with 1,6-phenylene diacetic acid; and pre-prodrugs metabolizable thereto.
摘要:
The abuse potential of a bioavailable drug such as an opiate analgesic agent is reduced and its duration of action is extended by converting it to a poorly absorbed ester prodrug or other prodrug derivative prior to formulation. Unlike many existing sustained release formulations of active pharmaceutical agents wherein an active pharmaceutical agent can be released by chewing, crushing, or otherwise breaking tablets or capsule beads containing the active pharmaceutical agent, such mechanical processing of tablets or capsule beads containing a prodrug of this invention neither releases the active drug nor compromises the controlled conversion of prodrug to drug. Moreover, tablets and capsule beads containing prodrugs of this invention or other drugs can be formulated with a sufficient amount of a thickening agent such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose or carboxymethylcellulose to impede inappropriate intravenous and nasal administration of formulations that are not indicated for these modes of administration.

摘要:
A host cell stably transformed or transfected by a vector including a DNA sequence encoding for mutant purine nucleoside cleavage enzymes is provided. The transformed or transfected host cell can be used in combination with a purine substrate to treat tumour cells and/or virally infected cells. A nucleotide sequence encoding mutant E. coli derived purine nucleoside phosphorylase proteins which can be used in conjunction with an appropriate substrate to produce toxins which impair abnormal cell growth is also provided. A method is detailed for the delivery of toxin by generation withing target cells or by administration and delivery to the cells from without. Novel purine nucleosides are detailed that yield a cytotoxic purine upn enzymatic cleavage. A synthetic process for nucleosides is also detailed.
摘要:
Shown and described are the synthesis of more potent forms of C-Mel, a prodrug used in Antibody-Directed Enzyme Prodrug Therapy, that releases the clinically used anticancer alkylating agent melphalan extracellularly. Shown and described are the synthesis of a variety of melphalan analogues with the intention to promote facile intracellular drug access. Esters, amides, and peptides of melphalan are shown. Cephalosporin prodrugs of the most interesting melphalan derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for potency, toxicity, therapeutic window, plasma stability, and solubility.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of controlled release of saccharides and oligosaccharides in human and animal. Polysaccharides are digested in a manner to provide oligomers having desired numbers of units of saccharides or monosaccharides, most particularly glucosamine and N-acetyl-glucosamine and derivatives thereof. The rate of release of monosaccharides is proportional to the length of the oligomers administered to an organism, and has targeted physiological effects depending on the length of the oligomers used.
