Abstract

Pharmaceutical compositions having antineoplastic activity comprise as the active ingredient component a) which is at least one polyfluoroalcohol of formula I: CHF2-(CF2)n-CH2OH (I> wherein n is 3, 5, 7 or 9; and optionally component b) cholesterol. Preferably the compositions containing two and still better at least three polyfluoroalcohols. A lipophilic solvent may be present, for instance sesame oil. [GB2121280A]

Description

5513? The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions having antineoplastic activity which contain as the active components a) at least one polyfluorinated alcohol of formula 1: CHF2-(CH2)n - CHgOH (I) 5 in which n is the number 3, 5, 7 or 9 and optionally b) cholestrol, together with a lipophilic physiologically acceptable carrier.
Preferably, the compositions according to the invention contain at least two polyfluorinated alcohols of formula I and cholesterol.
It is even more advantageous to use a composiiton containing a) three polyfluorinated alcohols of formula I and in addition component b) cholestrol. The relative proportions, of the three polyfluorinated alcohols in the preferred compositions according to the invention may vary within wide limits, for example, each one constituting from 1 to 12 parts in a 15 total of 14 parts by weight, for instance between 12 parts of dodeca- fluoreheptanol, compound I in which n = 5, one part of octafluoropentanol, that is compound I in which n = 3, and one part of hexadecaflourononanol, compound I in which n = 7, up to one part of dodecafluoroheptanol plus one part of octafluoropentanol plus 12 parts hexadecafluorononanol.
The relative; proportions between component a) and b) may vary between 10: 1 and 1:10 by weight.
As stated, the composition according to the invention further contain a lipophilic carrier, for example a lipophilic solvent such as sesame oil or similar substances. All the components of the -2- 55137 pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention are well known and are commercially available. The following examples are given by way of Illustration of the compositions according to the invention.
Example 1 5 In 150 g of sesame oil are dissolved 3 g of octafluoropentanol, 5 g of dodecafluoroheptanol and 7.5 g hexadecafluorononanol. To the solution are added 2.5 g of cholesterol, while wanning for a short period of time at 35°- 40°C.
Example 2 10 To 100 g of sesame oil are added 2.5 g of dodecafluoroheptanol, 2.5 g of hexadecafluorononanol and 5 g of octafluoropentanol and 4 g of cholestrol while stirring up to complete dissolution.
Example 3 To 174 g of sesame oil are added the following components 15 while stirring up to complete dissolution. dodecafluoroheptanol (I, n = 5 ) 12g hexadecafluorononanol (I, n = 7) 4g octafluoronentanol (I, n = 3) 4g cholestrol 6g 20 The solution so obtained is distributed In 0.2 cc phials, 0.3 cc phials and 0.5 cc phials. The phials are sterilized by heating. Example 4 The composition is prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 adding 2 g of eicosafluoroundecanol (I, n = 9).
Example 5 The preparation is carried out in the same manner as in Example 1 substituting hexadecafluorononanol with equal amount of -3- 55137 octafluoropentanol , Example 6 The composition is prepared in the same manner as in Example 3, but the addition of cholesterol is omitted.
The composition according to Example 3 has been studied for acute toxicity, subacute toxicity and chronic toxicity.
Acute Toxicity - The subcutaneous Injection of doses higher than 0.5 cc in mice weighing 30 g causes, as the only symptom, sleep from which the animals wake up after a few hours without any abnormal manifestations.
The same phenomenon occurs in the case of rats in a dose higher than 1.5 cc per 100 g.
Subacute Toxicity - The administration by the subcutaneous route in the amount of 0.3 cc per day for a period of five days in one week, for three consecutive weeks, to mice weighing 30 g, causes no toxic symptoms 15 nor ϊί any pathological change noted in the animals after they have been killed.
Chronic Toxicity - Mice weighing 30g are subjected to subcutaneous injection of 0.2 cc per day, three times a week for three consecutive months. The animals did not exhibit any abnormal reactions with respect 20 to the controls nor was any pathological change noted in the animals after they were killed.
Equal results were obtained by administration of 0.4 cc per 100 g to rats. No toxic phenomena was noted by administering the composition to mice and rats by the oral route by means of a catheter 25 in the amount of 0.2 cc per day or 0,4 cc per 100 g per day in the case of rats for prolonged periods of time. No toxic symptom was noted also when 1% of the composition was added to the feed of the same animals although the animals manifested a certain reluctance to eat the feed -4- 55137 which contained this additive.
On the basis of the foregoing it is manifested that the compounds according to the invention are practically f*ee from toxicity. Pharmacology -The concept of anabolic/catabolic dualism and related 5 definitions as discussed hereinbelow are widely illustrated also from an experimental point of view both in animals and humans in E. Revici, Research in Physiopathology , Van Nostrand ed, Priceton, 1961. However, the novelty of the invention does not depend upon the correctness of the theories discussed in this treatise. The composition according to 10 the invention and particularly the composition according to Example 3 exhibit a very favorable effect on lesions thus exhibiting a catabolic effect. This effect is clearly shown by the healing of the wounds and bums. In the case of experimental cancer, a clear difference in effect has been noted depending whether the tumours are of anabolic or catabolic 15 character. If fact, in the first case the compositions according to the invention slow up only the death of the animals but the same compositions exert a substantial beneficial effect on the tumours which have a catabolic character, with necrosis, accumulation of fluid and cells in pyknosis.
Clinical Study - also 1n the treatment of patients affected by catabolic tumours, the composition according to the invention, administered by intramuscular injection in the dose of 2-3 cc develop a clearly favourable action eliminating or reducing the suffering for several hours.
