  • Patent number: 10912836
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds which function as antibody mimetic compounds. These compounds are bifunctional/multifunctional compounds which contain at least one cancer cell binding moiety which selectively binds to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and a FC receptor binding moiety which modulates an FC immune receptor, preferably a Fc?RI receptor. Compounds according to the present invention bind selectively to cancer cells which upregulate PSMA and through that interaction, place the Fc receptor binding moiety of the compound in proximity to a Fc receptor, preferably a Fc?RI receptor, which can modulate (preferably, upregulate) a humoral response in a patient to cancer cells. Through this biological action of the compounds according to the present invention, cancer cells, including metastatic cancer cells, especially prostate cancer cells can be immune regulated, resulting in the favorable therapy of cancer in a patient.

  • Patent number: 10913726
    Abstract: In alternative embodiments, the invention provides nucleophilic hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamine antidotes that cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to catalyze the hydrolysis of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) in the central nerve system (CNS). The hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamines of the invention are designed to fit within AChE active center gorge dimensions, bind with reasonable affinity, and react with the conjugated phosphate atom in the gorge. The hydroxyimino-acetamido alkylamines of the invention are also designed to possess ionization states that govern affinity and reactivity for the two linked hAChE re-activation steps.
