  • Method of identifying improved conjugates of biologically active compounds
    Patent number: 8357506
    Abstract: This invention features a method of identifying a compound useful for enhancing efficacy of a therapeutic agent. The method includes incubating a compound in blood cells; separating immune cells from erythrocytic cells; and determining the ratio of the concentration of the compound in the immune cells to the concentration of the compound in the erythrocytic cells; wherein the compound comprises a transportophore and a therapeutic agent, in which the transportophore is covalently bonded to the therapeutic agent via a bond or a linker.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 12, 2008
    Date of Patent: January 22, 2013
    Inventors: Michael Burnet, Jan-Hinrich Guse, Gene Kim, Albert Beck, Georgia Tsotsou, Irina Droste-Borel, Laurence Barker, Michael Wolff, Hans-Jurgen Gutke
  • Conjugates of biologically active compounds, methods for their preparation and use, formulation and pharmaceutical applications thereof
    Patent number: 7579324
    Abstract: This invention features a compound of the following formula: T-(-L-C)m, T is a transportophore, L is a bond or a linker having a molecular weight up to 240 dalton, C is a non-antibiotic therapeutic agent, and m is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8, in which the transportophore has an immune selectivity ratio of at least 2, the transportophore is covalently bonded to the non-antibiotic therapeutic agent via the bond or the linker, and the compound has an immune selectivity ratio of at least 2.
