Abstract: Use of tellurium-containing compounds in a method of conception and/or for maintaining and/or augmenting fertility in female following chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy is disclosed. The tellurium-containing compound is utilized in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation, such that the female treated by the chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation and by the tellurium-containing compound is instructed to refrain from conceptive sex for a pre-determined time period, following the chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, during which conception is undesired. The tellurium-containing compound is utilized in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation, such that the female treated by the chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation and by the tellurium-containing compound is instructed to refrain from sex and/or from reproduction for a pre-determined time period, and is then allowed to practice reproduction.

Abstract: Use of tellurium-containing compounds for maintaining and/or augmenting fertility in a male subject following chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy is disclosed. The tellurium-containing compound is utilized in combination with a chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation, such that the male subject treated by the chemotherapeutic agent and/or radiation and by the tellurium-containing compound is instructed to refrain from conceptive sex for a pre-determined time period, following the chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, during which conception is undesired.

Abstract: The invention relates to an aqueous solution containing at least one species selected from the group consisting of a 1:1 molar complex of TeO2 with a moiety of formula (A) and ammonium salts thereof: HO—X—OH ??(A) where X is an optionally substituted divalent saturated hydrocarbon group containing 2-8 carbon atoms in the chain connecting the two OH groups; and its use for stimulating cells to produce cytokines and for treating mammalian diseases and conditions responsive to increased production of cytokines. The complex may be used also for treating mammalian cancer which is not responsive to increased production of cytokines.
