Title:
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING THIRAM FOR INHIBITING ANGIOGENESIS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1999034763
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Thiram (tetramethylthiuram disulfide) is shown to inhibit angiogenesis and/or inflammation and to be useful in the treatment of angiogenesis-dependent disorders, including neoplasms, and in the inhibition, treatment and alleviation of inflammation associated with several disorders and diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. Thiram is further useful for prevention of cell hyperproliferation and formation of clots along or around medical devices.
