Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a novel pharmaceutical composition having antitumor (anti-cancer) activity without causing pyrexia and anaphylaxis, formed by an amide bonding between an antibody obtained by the purification of the antibody to tumor (cancer) antigen via affinity-chromatography and an antitumor substance (anti-cancer drug).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 87 words
A pharmaceutical composition is dosage unit form for use in the treatment of cancer, which comprises a therapeutically effective amount of a substance bonded by amide bonding an anti-cancer drug having at least one amino group or carboxyl group, selected from the group consisting of antibiotic substances, antimetabolitic substances and alkylating agents with an anti-cancer antibody obtained by purifying immunogloubulin fraction with affinity-chromatography, in the presence of a reagent selected from the group consisting of thionyl chloride, diethyl phosphorocyanidate and a carbodiimide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 87 words
A pharmaceutical composition is dosage unit form for use in the treatment of cancer, which comprises a therapeutically effective amount of a substance bonded by amide bonding an anti-cancer drug having at least one amino group or carboxyl group, selected from the group consisting of antibiotic substances, antimetabolitic substances and alkylating agents with an anti-cancer antibody obtained by purifying immunogloubulin fraction with affinity-chromatography, in the presence of a reagent selected from the group consisting of thionyl chloride, diethyl phosphorocyanidate and a carbodiimide, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein said antibiotic substance is selected from the group consisting of mitomycin C, doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin, daunorubicin, actinomycin D and sarkomycin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein said antimetabolitic substance is selected from the group consisting of cytarabine, 8-azaguanine, 5-fluorouracil, methotrexate and sodium aminopterin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein said alkylating agent is selected from the group consisting of chlorambucil, melphalan, uramustine, ACNU and cyclophosphamide.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein said anti-cancer antibody is an anti-cancer alloantibody purified by affinity-chromatography.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 55 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein the amino group or the carboxyl group of said anti-cancer drug is introduced thereinto by bringing the anti-cancer drug into reaction with a compound having the formula: X(CH.sub.2).sub.n COOH wherein X represents an atom of chlorine or bromine and n denotes an integer of 1 to 3.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 56 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein the amino group or the carboxyl group of said anti-cancer drug is introduced thereinto by bringing the anti-cancer drug into reaction with a compound having the formula: HCl.NH.sub.2 (CH.sub.2).sub.n COX wherein X represents an atom of chlorine or bromine and n denotes an integer of 1 to 3.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 25 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 1, wherein said affinity-chromatography is performed by using a carrier to which molecules of the cancer antigen are bound.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 8, wherein said carrier is packed into a column.
