  • Gallium complexes of 3-hydroxy-4-pyrones to treat cancer
    Patent number: 6087354
    Abstract: Disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that comprise gallium complexes of 3-hydroxy-4-pyrones. These compositions provide enhanced gallium bioavailability particularly when orally administered as compared to the gallium bioavailability achieved by use of pharmaceutical compositions containing gallium salts. Compositions included in this invention are useful in providing gallium to humans and other mammals for a wide variety of medical and veterinary applications, including the treatment, prevention, or diagnosis of hypercalcemia, certain cancers, certain disorders of calcium homeostasis, and certain bone diseases including osteoporosis, osteopenia, and Paget's disease.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 29, 1998
    Date of Patent: July 11, 2000
    Inventor: Lawrence Richard Bernstein
  • Solid pharmaceutical compositions for the oral administration of gallium
    Patent number: 6048851
    Abstract: The subjects of this invention are pharmaceutical compositions that comprise gallium complexes of 3-hydroxy-4-pyrones. The compositions have been developed to provide pharmaceutically acceptable gallium bioavailability together with low toxicity, particularly for oral administration. Compositions included in this invention should be useful in providing gallium to humans and other animals for a wide variety of medical and veterinary applications, including the treatment, prevention, or diagnosis of certain bone diseases, certain cancers, and certain disorders of calcium homeostasis.
