Compsn. for treating CNS tumours - contains active cpd. conjugated to saponin, flavone or saccharide, to allow binding to lipid bi-layer of tumour cells

摘要

A prepn. for splitting tissues from malign proliferations by biochemical action on the membranes of the malign cells contains, as active component, a non-toxic organic substance which has 3 bonding positions, two of which are 6.48 Angstroms apart and the third of which is chemically attached to a biological carrier. The prepn. also contains a complex of non-haemolysing saponins, flavones and glycides. USE/ADVANTAGE - Avoids the negative side effects associated with the treatment of cancer using chemotherapeutics (e.g. negative effect on blood formation and metabolism). Prepn. has no negative side effects. The active ingredients have been recovered exclusively from plants, are non-toxic and can penetrate the biochemical barriers in the brain and spinal cord.
