Description

DELTOIN COMPOUND FOR USE AS ANTICANCER AGENT
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the use of deltoin drug substances obtained from natural sources as anticancer agents in cancer treatment and pharmaceutical compositions containing this agent.
State of the Art (Background)
The present invention relates to the field of cancer treatment, as mentioned. More specifically, it relates to the use of naturally derived chemotherapy agents for cancer treatment.
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. These cells can invade and damage nearby tissues and can also spread to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or lymphatic system. There are many different types of cancer, and they can occur almost anywhere in the body.
Chemotherapy is a widely preferred treatment option for cancer and involves the use of medications to terminate cancer cells. Chemotherapy is an effective way to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors, but it also damages normal cells, leading to side effects such as nausea, vomiting, hair loss, and increased risk of infection. In addition, many cancer cells may become resistant to chemotherapy drugs during the treatment process, making it difficult to treat cancer effectively.
One way to improve my chemotherapy agents is to make them more selective so that they only target cancer cells and maintain normal cells as much as possible. Chemotherapy agents obtained from natural sources may have the potential to be more selective than synthetic chemotherapy drugs. These agents are derived from plants, animals, or other natural sources rather than being synthesized in a laboratory. Examples of chemotherapy agents obtained from natural sources include docetaxel, paclitaxel, vincristine, vinblastine, and semi-synthetic derivatives derived from the compounds isolated from Catharanthus roseus (rosette) and Taxus baccata yew tree) plants such as 10-deacetylbaccatin III.
The use of chemotherapy agents obtained from natural sources for cancer treatment may offer several potential benefits compared to synthetic chemotherapy drugs. For example, these agents may be less toxic to normal cells and have other beneficial effects on the body. More research is needed to fully understand the potential of naturally obtained chemotherapy agents and identify the most effective ways to use them in cancer treatment.
Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for treating cancer using naturally derived chemotherapy agents. Another object of the present invention is to provide an agent suitable for use in cancer treatment.
Brief Description of the Invention
The inventors have developed pharmaceutical compositions comprising deltoin drug substance and optionally at least one pharmaceutically usable excipient for use as an anticancer agent in the treatment of cancer disease, considering the problems in state of the art described above.
Detailed Description of the Invention
The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising deltoin as the drug substance and optionally at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient for use as a medicament in the treatment of cancer disease.
Deltoin drug substance (Formula I) is provided from plants belonging to the Apiaceae family.
Formula I In their studies, the inventors have observed that the deltoin molecule has a toxic effect on various cancer cells. It has been determined by the studies conducted by the inventors that the toxic effect of the compound is extremely strong, especially in brain cancer cells, and that it has a close and selective effect on the effect of cisplatin used as a chemotherapy agent in the known state of the art. Although the deltoin molecule of the invention has a toxic effect as good as cisplatin on cancer cells, it surprisingly shows approximately 12 times less toxic effect than cisplatin on healthy cells. This shows that the deltoin molecule is effective on cancer and offers a much safer and more selective chemotherapy possibility compared to cisplatin, a known chemotherapy agent.
The fact that the deltoin molecule is a compound with a structure different from the classes of molecules used in cancer treatment so far, that it has a selective effect on various types of cancer such as brain cancer, that it has low toxicity on healthy cells and that it has a very high cytotoxic effect on cancer cells, for example at the micromolar dose level, distinguishes it from other chemotherapy agents existing in state of the art and makes it superior.
