Use of FC101 as an angiogenesis inhibitor for the treatment of cancer and other angiogenic diseases

摘要

The present invention provides a treatment for angiogenic diseases, including solid tumors. The treatment consists of administering therapeutically active dosages of FC101, resulting in a reduction in endothelial cell proliferation and inhibition of new blood vessel formation. FC101 can also be used as a lead compound to develop other pharmacologically-active compounds, by adding or substituting different functional groups for those already present on the FC101 molecule.
