  • Patent number: 6673787
    Abstract: The present invention creates a novel antiangiogenic agent and provides an antitumor agent which shows high safety as compared with conventional antitumor agents, has a sure effect and is able to be administered for a long period. That is, it provides an indole compound represented by the following formula (I), its pharmacologically acceptable salt or hydrates thereof. In the formula, R1 represents hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or cyano group; R2 and R3 are the same as or different from and each represents hydrogen atom, a C1-C4 lower alkyl group or a halogen atom; R4 represents hydrogen atom or a C1-C4 lower alkyl group; and the ring A represents cyanophenyl group, aminosulfonylphenyl group, aminopyridyl group, aminopyrimidyl group, a halopyridyl group or cyanothiophenyl group, provided that the case where all of R1, R2 and R3 are hydrogen atoms, where both R2 and R3 are hydrogen atoms or where the ring A is aminosulfonyl group and both R1 and R2 are halogen atoms is excluded.

  • Patent number: 6645996
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel bioactive substance having an antiangiogenic effect. The chemical compound represented by the formula (1) (wherein, R1 represents hydrogen atom, aldehyde group or a lower acyl group, R2 and R3 are the same as or different from each other and represent hydrogen atom or a lower alkoxy group or are combined to represent oxygen atom, R4 represents a lower alkyl group and R5 represents hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, provided that compounds in which R1 is aldehyde group, R2 and R3are different from each other and are hydrogen atom or methoxy group, R4 is ethyl group and R5 is hydrogen atom are excluded), a salt thereof or a hydrate thereof was isolated from the culture broth of genus Streptomyces and the structure thereof was analyzed.
