Method For Reducing Toxicity Of A Cytotoxic Agent

US Patent:
2002002, Mar 7, 2002
Filed:
Apr 20, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/839918
Inventors:
Gail Colbern - Pacifica CA, US
Karen Steinmetz - San Mateo CA, US
Peter Working - Burlingame CA, US
Alberto Gabizon - Jerusalem, IL
International Classification:
A61K009/127, A61K031/7068, A61K031/704, A61K031/513, A61K031/48
US Classification:
424/450000, 514/034000, 514/050000, 514/269000, 514/288000
Abstract:
Methods for reducing the incidence and occurrence of dermal lesions in mammals, particularly human patients, who receive chemotherapy treatment and in the course of such treatment are administered liposomal formulations of cytotoxic agents are provided. Cytotoxic agents typically include doxorubicin, cytarabine, epirubicin, daunorubicin, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and vinorelbine. Reduction in the incidence and occurrence of dermal lesions in a patient is achieved by administration of a cytoprotective agent.

Liposome-Entrapped Topoisomerase Inhibitors

US Patent:
6355268, Mar 12, 2002
Filed:
Oct 15, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/419189
Inventors:
James L. Slater - Palo Alto CA
Gail T. Colbern - Pacifica CA
Peter K. Working - Burlingame CA
Assignee:
Alza Corporation - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
A61K 9127
US Classification:
424450
Abstract:
A composition for administration of a therapeutically effective dose of a topoisomerase inhibitor I or topoisomerase I/II inhibitor is described. The composition includes liposomes having an outer surface and an inner surface defining an aqueous liposome compartment, and being composed of a vesicle-forming lipid and of a vesicle-forming lipid derivatized with a hydrophilic polymer to form a coating of hydrophilic polymer chains on both the inner and outer surfaces of the liposomes. Entrapped in the liposomes is the topoisomerase inhibitor at a concentration of at least about 0. 10 mole drug per mole lipid.

Method For Potentiating Activity Of A Chemotherapeutic Drug

US Patent:
2005008, Apr 21, 2005
Filed:
Oct 12, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/964059
Inventors:
Francis Martin - San Francisco CA, US
Gail Colbern - Pacifica CA, US
Peter Working - Burlingame CA, US
International Classification:
A61K039/395, A61K033/24, A61K009/127, A61K031/704
US Classification:
424450000, 424649000, 514034000, 424143100
Abstract:
A method for potentiating the activity of a chemotherapeutic drug administered in combination with a biological agent is described. The method includes entrapping the chemotherapeutic drug in a liposome and administering the liposome-entrapped drug in combination with the biological agent. The method is particularly useful for treatment of cancer which over-express tyrosine kinase receptor and for B-cell lymphomas, where, for example, anti-HER2 antibodies or anti-CD19 antibodies are administered in combination with the cytotoxic drug.
