Abstract: A container for a vial of radiopharmaceutical, made of polymethyl methacrylate consists of a receptacle, with a cavity capable of containing the vial of radiopharmaceutical, and of a lid screwed onto the receptacle for closing the container, said lid presenting a central through-hole. A set, in combination with this container with the vial of radiopharmaceutical, consisting of a bottle of saline solution and two infusion catheters, enhances the radioprotection during the infusion of a radiopharmaceutical in an infusion operation.
Abstract: The present invention relates to novel amide compounds of formula I, and their use as anti-tumoral and pro-apoptotic agents. The invention includes the use of such compounds in medicine, in relation to cancer disease as well as other diseases where an inhibition of HDAC6 is responsive, and the pharmaceutical composition containing such compounds.
Abstract: The present invention relates to combinations between artemisinin-based potent anti-malarial agents, selected from the group consisting of ART, DHA and ARM, and a further chemotherapeutic drug selected from the group consisting of a camptothecin derivative, or a PARP-1 inhibitor, or an intercalating DNA agent, or an alkylating agent. Such combinations, showed medium to strong synergism in various models of cancer, in particular in NSCL.
Abstract: The present invention relates to new carbamate derivatives of formula I, processes for their preparation, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them for the treatment of neurological disorders, such as neuropathic pain and anxiety.
Abstract: This invention relates to a process for preparing a crystalline form of (4S)-11(dimethoxymethyl)-4-ethyl-4-hydroxy-1H-pyrano[3?4?:6,7]indolizino[1,2-b]quinoline-3,14(4H,12H)-dione, also named 7-(dimethoxy-methyl)camptothecin). With the provision of a particular crystallization step, in appropriate way, a new crystalline form of the above compound is obtained. The process for the preparation of the polymorph Form II comprises transforming camptothecin to the corresponding 7-(dimethoxy-methyl)-camptothecin, and crystallizing from methanol.
Abstract: It is described the use of the long pentraxin PTX3 (PTX3) or one of its functional derivatives, for the preparation of a medicament for the prevention or treatment of viral diseases and/or for inhibiting virus activation.
Abstract: Dietary supplements—providing energy and strengthening skeletal muscles and facilitating skeletal muscles ability to sustain prolonged periods of physical activity—containing propionyl-L-carnitine or one of its salts, coenzyme Q10, nicotinamide, riboflavin, pantothenic acid and optionally other components such as amino acids and creatines.
Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of acetyl L-carnitine for the preparation of a medicament for the prevention and/or treatment of cancer. Methods of preventing and/or treatment of cancer by administering an effective amount of acetyl L-carnitine to subject in need thereof are also disclosed.

Abstract: Partially desulfated glycosaminoglycan derivatives are described, particularly heparin, and more particularly formula (I) compounds where the U, R and R1 groups have the meanings indicated in the description. These glycosaminoglycan derivatives exhibit antiangiogenic activity and are devoid of anticoagulant activity.
Abstract: A food supplement with a “slimming” effect is disclosed which strengthens the skeletal muscle, protecting the cardio-vascular apparatus of the user, and has as its characterising components propionyl L-carnitine, coenzyme Q10 nicotinamide, riboflavin and pantothenic acid.
Abstract: A composition is disclosed suitable for the prevention and/or treatment of disorders due to abnormal lipid metabolism, such as hypercholesterolaemia, atherosclerosis, hyperlipidaemia and obesity, and which can therefore take the form of a dietary supplement or of an actual medicine, comprising as characterizing active ingredients: (a) propionyl L-carnitine or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, and (b) chitosan or its derivatives and congeners.
Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an alkanoyl L-carnitine selected from the group consisting of acetyl, propionyl, valeryl, isovaleryl and butirryl L-carnitine; in combination with one or more chemotherapeutic agent selected from the group consisting of: a camptothecin derivative; an alkylating agent; an anti-neoplastic anti-metabolite; a platin compound; a topoisomerase inhibitor; a VEGF inhibitor; a tyrosine kinase inhibitor; an EGFR kinase inhibitor; an mTOR kinase inhibitor; an insulin-like growth factor I inhibitor; a Raf kinase inhibitor; a monoclonal antibody; a proteasome inhibitor; a HDAC inhibitor; toxins; and imides; for the treatment of neoplasms.
Abstract: Use of L-carnitine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for the preparation of an ophthalmic physiological supplement or medicament in the form of eye-drops, for the treatment of corneal oedema.
Abstract: A stereoselective process for preparing 7-[(E)-t-butyloxyiminomethyl]-camptothecin (also known as gimatecan) is herein disclosed. With the addition of further dissolution and precipitation steps carried out in appropriate different solvent mixtures, four new crystalline forms of gimatecan are also obtainable by using the same stereoselective process.
