  • Publication number: 20130197009
    Abstract: [Problem] An object of the present invention is to provide a novel anticancer drug which is useful for treating prostate cancer accompanying androgen receptor mutation [Means for Solution] The present inventors conducted thorough research on mutant androgen-related diseases for which the traditional anti-androgen drugs become ineffective. As a result, they found that the compound, which is an active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, exhibits an inhibitory action against transcriptional activation in a human mutant androgen receptor (AR), and has an excellent antitumor action in a human prostate cancer-bearing mouse, thereby completing the present invention. Accordingly, the compound, which is an active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, is useful for a series of androgen receptor-related diseases including prostate cancer.

  • Publication number: 20130195988
    Abstract: A vascular embolization gelling agent for sustained release of drugs for treating tumors having a drug and a drug carrier. The drugs are antitumor drugs. The drug carrier includes poloxamer polymer and polyvinylpyrrolidone or gel made of the combination, and may be purified before use. The drug carrier accounts for 5-65% of the gel. The particle size of the gel is in the range of 10 nm-150 ?m. The embolization agent is a liquid gel at normal temperature, to facilitate direct transcatheter injection, and is rapidly solidified to the gel state in body with the increase of the temperature; it is used to encapsulate different drugs on demand, and can achieve dual efficacy of embolization and drug treatment through local sustained release of the drug. The present invention can be used as the embolization agent for endovascular interventional therapy for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization of various benign and malignant tumors.

    Abstract: This application describes a novel technology in drug discovery and drug-based imaging/detection: the wrapping technology. This technology is based on identified singularities in the structure of soluble proteins. In contrast with drug-design approaches based on standard structural considerations, the packing of a protein, or more precisely, its dehydron pattern, may be used as a selectivity filter to design small-molecule inhibitors. The wrapping technology described herein is a novel form of rational drug design for avoiding side effects in drug therapy and sharpening the inhibitory impact of drugs on the oncokinome.
