combination of necrosis inducing substances with substances which are activated by necrosis, for selective therapy of tumors and inflammatory diseases

摘要

The invention relates to a combination of substances (component I) inducing necrosis in tumors or inflamed tissue with other nontoxic substances ("prodrugs", component II). The enzymes set free by necrotic processes then cleave the nontoxic "prodrug" into the toxic "drug", which leads to massive tumor cell death and/or remission of inflammation.
