Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a cancer metastasis inhibitor having an inhibitory action against the adhesion of cancer cells to vascular basement membrane components, etc., and thereby effective for inhibiting the metastasis of the cancer, by containing a specific compound or a salt thereof. CONSTITUTION:A cancer metastasis inhibitor contains glucopiericidin A of the formula or a salt thereof. The compound of the formula is obtained by the culture of microorganisms. When used as the cancer metastasis inhibitor, the compound of the formula is usually orally or parenterally administered in a dose of approximately 20-300mg per day for an adult approximately once a day depending upon the kind of the cancer and the degree of the symptom of a patient. The compound of the formula is administered in the shapes of abstracts, fine particles, granules, tablets, etc. The compound of the formula is not only administered as the remedy for cancer patients but also used for preventing the cancer metastasis of patients having been treated by chemotherapy, endocrinotherapy, etc.

Metastasis is a complex phenomenon that involves the process of cancer cell release from the primary site, migration through blood vessels, adhesion to organ vessels, invasion, and further proliferation, and is a unique and important feature of cancer. be. Although cancer metastasis is an important factor governing patient prognosis, research on it has been delayed considerably due to the lack of suitable experimental systems. That is, the mechanism of metastasis has not been fully elucidated, and therefore, there are currently no therapeutic measures available.
