Patent number: 9765103Abstract: The present invention relates to using a versatile synthetic approach to generate a new class of ester, amido, or carbamate prodrugs of highly potent, but systemically too toxic, platinum-acridine anticancer agents. The new hybrids contain a hydroxyl group, which has been masked with a cleavable lipophilic acyl moiety. Both butanoic (butyric) and bulkier 2-propanepentanoic (valproic) esters were introduced to these compounds. The goal of this design was to improve the drug-like properties of the pharmacophore (e. g., log D) without compromising its DNA-mediated cell kill potential. Two distinct pathways by which the target compounds undergo effective ester hydrolysis, the proposed activating step, have been confirmed: platinum-mediated, self-immolative ester cleavage in a low-chloride environment (LC-ESMS, NMR spectroscopy) and enzymatic cleavage by human carboxylesterase-2 (hCES-2) (LC-ESMS).Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2015Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Inventors: Ulrich Bierbach, Song Ding

Patent number: 9603928Abstract: The object of the present invention is to elucidate the resistance mechanism in infections that show resistance to ALA-PDT that uses a single ALA, and to provide a novel treatment method against these infections. The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for promoting protoporphyrin IX production in ALA-PDT for treating infection, characterized in that it comprises a substance that promotes the conversion from coproporphyrinogen III to protoporphyrin IX.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2014Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignees: SBI Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., Osaka City UniversityInventors: Masahiro Ishizuka, Urara Oto, Atsuko Kamiya, Kiwamu Takahashi, Tohru Tanaka, Toshiyuki Ozawa, Kuniyuki Morimoto, Keitaro Watanabe
