  • Patent number: 9212131
    Abstract: Novel polyamine transport inhibitors have been synthesized and demonstrated to block the uptake of native polyamines into human cancer cells. A combination therapy of the transport inhibitor and DFMO (a drug which blocks polyamine biosynthesis) provided synergistic activity against a metastatic human colon cancer cell line. The strategy uses polyamine depletion and polyamine metabolism to generate reactive oxygen species within cells as a novel way to treat cancers. This approach may be implemented for widespread use in the treatment of diseases which rely upon polyamine transport activity for proliferation.

  • Patent number: 9212176
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a polyketal adduct obtained by forming an ester between a hydrocarbon polyol and a ketocarboxylic acid to produce an intermediate polyketocarboxylic ester. The intermediate polyketocarboxylic ester can be purified via crystallization to achieve purities of greater than 99.0% and then ketalized to produce the polyketal adduct, which can be used in polymer compositions. The polyketal adduct I is obtained at high purity and at high yield.
