Abstract

Abstract The invention concerns a method for suppressing bone marrow which comprises administering to a mammal at least one bone marrow suppressing complex of a radionuclide selected from the group consisting of Samarium-153, Gadolinium-159, and Holmium-166 and 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecanetetramethylenephosphonic acid a physiologically acceptable salt thereof. Suitable compositions for use in this method are also provided.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 32
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
A method for suppressing bone marrow which comprises administering to a mammal in need of such treatment a bone marrow suppressing amount of at least one bone marrow suppressing composition comprising at least one radionuclide selected from the group consisting of Samarium-153, Gadolinium-159, and Holmium-166 complexed with 1,4,7, 10-tetraazacyclododecanetetramethylenephosphonic acid or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 56 words
A method for suppressing bone marrow which comprises administering to a mammal in need of such treatment a bone marrow suppressing amount of at least one bone marrow suppressing composition comprising at least one radionuclide selected from the group consisting of Samarium-153, Gadolinium-159, and Holmium-166 complexed with 1,4,7, 10-tetraazacyclododecanetetramethylenephosphonic acid or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the radionuclide is Samarium-153.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the radionuclide is Gadolinium-159.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the radionuclide is Holmium-166.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 43 words
The method of claim 1 used in conjunction with an additional treatment regimen using at least one of (a) one or more bone marrow suppressing agents, and/or (b) one or more chemotherapeutic agents, and/or (c) one or more radiotherapeutic agents or radiotherapeutic methods.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1 used in conjunction with total body irradiation or targeted external irradiation.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 1 including the additional step of bone marrow transplantation after sufficient bone marrow suppression is achieved.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method of claim 1 used in conjunction with one or more therapeutic regimens for the treatment of leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma or Hodgkin's disease.
Claim 10
