Patent number: 6838450Abstract: A drug complex characterized in that a residue of a drug compound such as antineoplastic agents and a carboxy(C1-4)alkyldextran polyalcohol obtained by treating a dextran under conditions that enable substantially complete polyalcoholization are bound to each other by means of a spacer comprising an amino acid or a spacer comprising peptide-bonded 2 to 8 amino acids. Said complex is characterized in that it has excellent selectivity to tumorous sites so as to exhibit high antineoplastic activity and also achieves reduced appearance of toxicity.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2002Date of Patent: January 4, 2005Assignees: Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., LTD, Drug Delivery System Institute, Ltd.Inventors: Kazuhiro Inoue, Hiroshi Susaki, Masahiro Ikeda, Hiroshi Kuga, Eiji Kumazawa, Akiko Togo

Patent number: 6835807Abstract: A drug complex useful as a DDS compound, which is represented by the following formula: A-R—NH—Y—CH2—O—CO-Q, wherein A is a polymer as a drug carrier; R is a spacer, wherein the spacer is an amino acid or an oligopeptide comprising 2 to 8 amino acids; Y is phenylene group which may be substituted; and Q is a residue of a drug compound such as antineoplastic agents. The complex provides rapid and site-selective release of a drug compound such as antineoplastic or anti-inflammatory agents and surely exhibits expected efficacy.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2001Date of Patent: December 28, 2004Assignee: Daiichi Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroshi Susaki, Kazuhiro Inoue, Hiroshi Kuga
