Title:
USE OF A COMPOUND HAVING TWO GOLD (I) ATOMS EACH COVALENTLY BONDED TO A CARBON ATOM IN A COVALENT LINK CONNECTING THE TWO GOLD (I) ATOMS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005058421
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to the treatment of cancers, in particular, cancers that are resistant to platinum based chemotherapeutic agents. A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of cancer comprising an effective amount of a compound having two gold(I) atoms each covalently bonded to a carbon atom in a covalent link connecting the two gold(I) atoms and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.
