Abstract: Compounds of Formula (I) are described: in which the R1 group is as defined in the specification and includes the condensation of 7-t-butoxyiminomethylcamptothecin in position 20 with a cyclopeptide containing the RGD sequence. Said compounds are endowed both with high affinity for integrin receptors ?v?3 and ?v?5 and with selective cytotoxic activity on human tumour cell lines at micromolar concentrations.

Abstract: The present invention is related to new derivatives of Combretastatin, of Formula obtained by total synthesis. The strategy developed for each of the compounds is to i) replace a halogen (i.e. fluorine atom) to hydrogen on olefinic bound; ii) replace an aromatic ring in a natural product with an amino-aromatic ring. Said compounds recognize and bind the tubulin site: are useful for treating pathological states which arise from or are exacerbated by cell proliferation—as anticancer and/or antiangiogenic activity, in a mammal—to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds.

Abstract: Biphenyl and phenyl-naphthyl compounds bearing a hydroxamic group, which are endowed with antitumour, and anti-angiogenic activity These compounds are therefore particularly useful for the treatment of drug-resistant tumours.

Abstract: Described and claimed are compounds of Formula (I) in which R, R?, R?, A, and D have the meanings described in the text, as useful agents in the cure of pathologies characterized by altered angiogenesis and as antitumorals.

Abstract: Indole derivatives of Formula (I+A) having antitumour and chemosensitizing activity are described. Also described are pharmaceutical compositions containing the above-mentioned compounds, for the treatment of tumours.

Abstract: Cinnamic and phenylpropiolic acid derivatives of formula (I) having antitumour and chemo sensitizing activity are described. Also described are pharmaceutical compositions containing the above-mentioned compounds, for the treatment of tumours.

Abstract: Partially desulphated glycosaminoglycan derivatives are described, particularly heparin, and more particularly a compound of formula (I) where the U, R and R1 groups have the meanings indicated in the description. These glycosaminoglycan derivatives have antiangiogenic and heparanase-inhibiting activity and are devoid of anticoagulant activity.

Abstract: Formula (I) compounds are described c(R1-Arg-Gly-Asp-R2) where the meanings of the various groups are as described here below, which are integrin inhibitors, and particularly inhibitors of integrins of the ?,?3 and ?,?5 family, and therefore are useful as medicaments, particularly for the treatment of the diseases underlying abnormal angiogenesis, such as retinopathy, acute renal failure, osteoporosis and metastases. The compounds described herein, when suitably labelled, are also useful as diagnostic agents, especially for the detection of small tumour masses and arterial occlusion events, and as targeted drug vectors.

Abstract: A memory, particularly but not limitatively a flash memory, comprises at least one data storage area comprising a plurality of data storage locations, and an access circuitry for accessing the data storage locations for either retrieving or altering a data content thereof, depending for example on a memory user request. The memory includes at least one first user-configurable flag element and a second user-configurable flag element. Both the at least one first and the second flag elements are used by a user to set a protected state of the respective data storage area against alteration of the content of the data storage locations thereof. The protected state defined by setting the first flag element is user-removable, i.e., it can be removed by request from the user, so as to enable again the alteration of the content of the data storage area.

Abstract: Compounds are disclosed with the general formula in which the groups are as defined in the description here below and characterized by the presence of polyamine substituents on the imine/oxime residue, such amine groups being in turn protected by suitable protective groups. Said compounds are endowed with potent topoisomerase I inhibiting activity and therefore are useful as medicaments for the treatment of tumours and viral and parasite infections.

Abstract: Bis-heterocyclic compounds of general formula (I) are described which are useful as antitumour and chemosensitising agents.

Abstract: Compounds of formula (I) cyclo [NX1-R1-CO—NX2-R2-CO—NX3-R3-CO—NX4-CO—NX5-R5-CO], wherein at least one x-fluoroalkylated amino acid is present, are inhibitors of integrins, particularly those belonging to the alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 family, and thus are useful as medicaments, particularly for the treatment of the underlying diseases responsible for abnormal angiogenesis, such as retinopathy, acute kidney failure, osteoporosis and metastases. The compounds described herein are also useful as diagnostic agents, when appropriately labelled, especially for the detection and location of small tumour masses and arterial occlusion events.
