Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of Anti-Angiogenic Drugs and Drugs Treating Diseases of the Blood

摘要

A method for modulating at least one pharmacokinetic property of an anti-angiogenic or blood disease or steroid therapeutic and efficacy upon administration to a host is provided. One administers to the host an effective amount of a bifunctional compound of less than about 5000 Daltons comprising the anti-angiogenic or blood disease or steroid therapeutic or an active derivative thereof and a pharmacokinetic modulating moiety. The pharmacokinetic modulating moiety binds to at least one intracellular protein. The bifunctional compound has at least one modulated pharmacokinetic property upon administration to the host as compared to a free drug control that comprises the anticancer therapeutic as well as enhanced efficacy not due to compound degradation. It is preferred that the pharmacokinetic modulating moiety has a mass of less than 1100 Daltons.
