  • Publication number: 20100317580
    Abstract: The present invention provides conjugates of disorazoles and their derivatives with cell-binding molecules, such as peptides, proteins, hormones, blood proteins and antibodies. The present invention further provides novel disorazole derivatives and processes of manufacturing such conjugates and disorazole derivatives. These compounds can be used as medicaments for the treatment of physiological and/or pathophysiological conditions in mammals, in particular for the treatment of various tumors.

  • Patent number: 7794747
    Abstract: A method for producing a cationic liposomal preparation comprising a lipophilic active compound with physical and chemical stability during manufacturing, storing and reconstituting, and further a cationic liposomal preparation obtainable by this method as well as specific cationic liposomal preparations as well as pharmaceutical compositions are disclosed.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100178243
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of stabilizing a low molecular weight compound in a cationic liposome, wherein said compound has a low solubility in a lipid membrane and/or a low permeability across a lipid membrane. Preferrably, the compound is modified in order to increase lipid membrane solubility and/or lipid membrane permeability. After delivery of the cationic liposome to a target site, particularly a target site in an organism, the modification is reversed and the low molecular weight compound may enact its desired activity.
