| 20080207729 | Indole Derivatives Having Antitumor Activity - Indole derivatives of Formula (I+A) having antitumour and chemosensitizing activity are described. Also described are pharmaceutical compositions containing the above-mentioned compounds, for the treatment of tumours. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080312265 | Treatment of Drug-Resistant Tumors - A subclass of camptothecin derivatives is disclosed to be useful for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of drug-resistant tumors and/or for the administration to patients who show polymorphisms in the gene coding for DNA topoisomerase I. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20080319082 | Biphenyl and Naphthyl-Phenyl Hydroxamic Acid Derivatives - Biphenyl and phenyl-naphthyl compounds bearing a hydroxamic group, which are endowed with antitumour, and anti-angiogenic activity These compounds are therefore particularly useful for the treatment of drug-resistant tumours. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090137619 | Method for preventing and/or treating peripheral neuropathies induced by the administration of an anticancer agent - A method for preventing and/or treating peripheral neuropathies induced by the administration of an anticancer agent of the family of platin compounds, taxanes, epothilone class, vinca alkaloids, said method comprising the administration in a co-ordinated manner to a subject suffering from said peripheral neuropathies, or expected to suffer from said peripheral neuropathies, an effective amount of acetyl L-carnitine or of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In case of prevention, acetyl L-carnitine is administered to a subject, in view of the need of a treatment with an anticancer agent, immediately before or immediately after surgical removal of the tumor, but in any case before the administration of the anticancer agent. Acetyl L-carnitine can enhance the supportive effect of physiological NGF during chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, thus avoiding the problem of the local and general side effects of the exogenous administration of NGF which are a major problem of this neuroprotective strategy. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090143464 | Method for preventing and/or treating peripheral Neuropathies induced by the administration of an anticancer agent - A method for preventing and/or treating peripheral neuropathies induced by the administration of an anticancer agent of the family of platin compounds, taxanes, epothilone class, vinca alkaloids, said method comprising the administration in a co-ordinated manner to a subject suffering from said peripheral neuropathies, or expected to suffer from said peripheral neuropathies, an effective amount of acetyl L-carnitine or of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In case of prevention, acetyl L-carnitine is administered to a subject, in view of the need of a treatment with an anticancer agent, immediately before or immediately after surgical removal of the tumor, but in any case before the administration of the anticancer agent. Acetyl L-carnitine can enhance the supportive effect of physiological NGF during chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, thus avoiding the problem of the local and general side effects of the exogenous administration of NGF which are a major problem of this neuroprotective strategy. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20100048603 | BROAD-SPECTRUM ANTI-CANCER TREATMENT BASED ON IMINOCAMPTOTHECIN DERIVATIVES - A subclass of camptothecin derivatives is disclosed to be useful for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a cancer or tumor pathology selected from the group consisting of head and neck carcinoma, pancreas carcinoma, melanoma, bladder carcinoma, mesothelioma and epidermoid skin carcinoma. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20100197718 | TREATMENT OF PEDIATRIC TUMORS - A subclass of camptothecin derivatives is disclosed to be useful for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of pediatric tumors such as for examplerhabdomyosarcoma, primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNET) and neuroblastoma. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110160147 | NOVEL DUAL TARGETING ANTITUMORAL CONJUGATES - The present invention relates to dual-targeting cytotoxic compounds of formula (I) and to their preparation. The described compounds are endowed with tumour specific action, incorporating three functional units: a tumour recognition moiety and a tumour selective enzymatic substrate sequence connected together by means of a spacer. These conjugates are designed to guarantee serum stability and, at the same time, the desired action inside the tumour cells as a result of enzymatic cleavability. [(L-D) | 06-30-2011 |
