  • Patent number: 7749991
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to metal-phthalocyanines of general formula (I) to the corresponding conjugates, the processes for their preparation and use in the photodynamic therapy of microbial infections (viral, bacterial and mycotic), tumor, pre-cancerous and proliferative pathologies and/or in the diagnosis, as well as for blood and blood derivatives sterilization.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 16, 2006
    Date of Patent: July 6, 2010
    Assignee: L. Molteni & C. Dei Fratelli Alitti-Societa di Esercizio S.p.A.
    Inventors: Gabrio Roncucci, Lia Fantetti, Maria Paola De Filippis, Donata Dei, Giulio Jori
  • Patent number: 7265100
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a process for the separation of regioisomeric mixtures of metal phthalocyanines of formula (I), to the regioisomers obtained by this process, and their use as phototherapeutic and photodiagnostic agents
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2002
    Date of Patent: September 4, 2007
    Assignee: L. Molteni & C. Dei Fratelli Alitti Societa' di Esercizio S.p.A.

  • Patent number: 7153841
    Abstract: Phthalocyanine analogues having an active group able to link the phthalocyanine t carriers molecules and phthalocyanine to carriers molecules and phthalocyanine analogues as phthalocyanine-carrier conjugates showing enhanced photodynamic properties, red shifted absorption characteristic, all useful for photodynamic therapy, are described. Photosensitizers themselves or the photosensitizers-carriers conjugates are useful compounds either for treatment of various infectious diseases, the in vivo eradication of micro-organisms as well as diseases characterized by cellular hyperproliferation, in particular tumours psoriasis, actinic keratosis, atheromas, endoarterial hyperplasia and prostate hyperplasia. The above compounds can be also useful for blood and blood derivatives sterilization and in vivo/vitro diagnostics.
