Abstract: Long chain N-alkyl amino and imino compounds, oxa-substituted derivatives thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions including such compounds are described. The long chain N-alkyl group is a C8-C16 alkyl group. The long chain N-alkyl compounds and oxa-substituted derivatives thereof can be used in the treatment of viral infections, in particular hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus, in a cell or an individual. For example, the long chain N-alkyl compounds or oxa-substituted derivatives thereof can be derived from piperidines, pyrrolidines, phenylamines, pyridines, pyrroles, or amino acids.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent and an effective amount of an azaspirane derivative, a method of treating an animal in need of immunomodulation which comprises administering to such animal an effective amount of an azaspirane derivative, and certain azaspirane derivatives.

Abstract: Platinum co-ordination compounds comprising at least one amine ligand and a functional group remotely bonded to the amine ligand, which functional group may be linkable to a monoclonal antibody to provide a moiety which stabilizes the antibody against in vivo hydrolysis.

Abstract: A platinum co-ordination compound linkable to a monoclonal antibody by a functional group which forms part of a moiety which stabilizes the antibody against in vivo hydrolysis. Also the use of such compounds in the treatment of cancer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of potentiating radiation therapy using Co(III) complexes of water soluble, synthetic meso-substituted porphyrins. The method results in the sensitization of both well oxygenated (oxic) and oxygen deficient (hypoxic) tumor cells.

Abstract: A composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable polysaccharide carrier which has been chemically activated and then linked to platinum in either a +2 or +4 oxidation state through a bidentate oxygen-containing ligand including an amine group coupled to the activated polysaccharide. The composition may be used to link platinum metal remotely to a monoclonal antibody via the oxygen-containing ligand and the polysaccharide carrier such as dextran. The composition is optionally radiolabeled.

Abstract: A catalyst composition comprising a PGM complex bound to a carboxylated polymer containing not more than 5 mol equivalents of carboxylate groups per gram of polymer.

Abstract: Coordination compounds for use in therapy, the compounds having the general empirical formula[Rh.sup.m X.sub.x Y.sub.y ].sup.ain which m is the oxidation state of Rh, X is at least one anionic ligand, Y is at least one neutral ligand, with the proviso that at least one of X and Y is a nitrogen donor ligand, x is an integer from 1 to 6, y is an integer from 1 to 5 or may be equal to zero, and a is a positive or negative integer from -3 to +3 or may be equal to zero.Such compounds are useful inter alia as radiosensitizers in the treatment of cancer. A preferred compound is [RhenCl.sub.4 ][enH.sub.2 ].
