  • Treatment of infection by enveloped virus with calix(N)arene compounds
    Patent number: 5441983
    Abstract: A method for inhibiting cell infection by an enveloped virus, by administering to an infection site, a therapeutically effective amount of a calix(n)arene compound derivatized, at its ring positions meta to the bridge attachements to the ring, with polar substitutent having a terminal carboxylate, phosphate, or sulfonate groups, including esters and amides which are cleavable in vivo. The compound may be administered orally, or topically, e.g., for treatment of herpes virus.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 6, 1992
    Date of Patent: August 15, 1995

  • Antithrombotic treatment with calix(n)arene compounds
    Patent number: 5409959
    Abstract: A method of inhibiting thrombus formation in a mammalian subject. The method involves administering to the subject a therapeutically effective dose of a calix(n)arene compound derivatized, at its ring positions meta to the bridge attachments to the ring, with polar substituents having terminal sulfonate groups, including esters and amides which are cleavable in vivo.
