Abstract

Abstract Pharmaceutical preparations containing compounds of the formula ##STR1## where R is alkyl of 1 to 11 carbons. The preparations are useful in inhibiting adenosine deaminase in mammals thereby providing a method for prolonging the effectiveness of pharamaceutical agents which are biologically degraded by adenosine deaminase and thus converted into other compounds.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
The method of preventing rapid degradation of 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a mammal undergoing systemic treatment with 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof by inhibiting the conversion of 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof comprising administering to said mammal an effective degradation inhibition amount of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 58 words
The method of preventing rapid degradation of 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a mammal undergoing systemic treatment with 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof by inhibiting the conversion of 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof comprising administering to said mammal an effective degradation inhibition amount of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method of claim 1 in which the mammal is administered the 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof by oral or parenteral administration and said erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is administered orally or parenterally.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method of claim 2 in which said erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt is administered in a tablet, in a capsule or in an injectable solution.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 2 in which 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyladenine is being administered to the mammal.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 2 in which the hydrochloride salt of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine is administered.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 4 in which the hydrochloride salt of erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine is administered.
