This discovery provides a basis for the generation of novel treatments and medicaments, wherein provision of a systemic dosage of anti-pECAM-1 antibody or a proxy that provides the same functional result is administered to a patient suffering from cancer cachexia and/or metastasis associated with end-stage cancer | 03-29-2012 |
20110184009 | CAMPTOTHECIN DERIVATIVES AS CHEMORADIOSENSITIZING AGENTS - Camptothecin-based compounds are useful for treating a neoplasm in mammalian subjects by administering such compound to the subjects in combination with radiotherapy, i.e., the treatment of tumors with radioactive substances or radiation from a source external to the subject. Camptothecin-based compounds are modified by positioning at least one electron-affinic group around the camptothecin structure to enhance their value in combination with radiotherapy. New Camptothecin-based compounds are disclosed that are useful for treating cancer by administering the novel compounds alone or in combination with radiotherapy. | 07-28-2011 |
