Summary for Patent: 9,610,371
Title:Anticancer therapy

In an alternative embodiment, somatostatin analogs, which are radiolabeled are used to treat cancer or precancerous conditions.
Inventor(s): Norenberg; Jeffrey P. (Albuquerque, NM)
Assignee: STC.UNM (Albuquerque, NM)
Application Number:14/669,313
Patent Claims:1. A method of treating a somatostatin receptor expressing cancerous tumor in a patient in need, the method comprising administering to said patient an effective amount of a composition comprising a chelate-linked peptide analog of somatostatin comprising a radionuclide, wherein said peptide analog of somatostatin is Tyr.sup.3-Octreotide, said chelate is 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) and said radionuclide is the .alpha. particle emitter .sup.213Bi (.sup.213Bi-DOTATOC), in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in combination with an additional anti-cancer compound, wherein said additional anti-cancer compound is Aldesleukin; Alemtuzumab; alitretinoin; allopurinol; altretamine; amifostine; anastrozole; arsenic trioxide; Asparaginase; BCG Live; bexarotene capsules; bexarotene gel; bleomycin; busulfan intravenous; busulfan oral; calusterone; capecitabine; carboplatin; carmustine; carmustine with Polifeprosan 20 Implant; celecoxib; chlorambucil; cisplatin; cladribine; cyclophosphamide; cytarabine; cytarabine liposomal; dacarbazine; dactinomycin, actinomycin D; Darbepoetin alfa; daunorubicin liposomal; daunorubicin, daunomycin; Denileukin diftitox, dexrazoxane; docetaxel; doxorubicin; doxorubicin liposomal; Dromostanolone propionate; Elliott's B Solution; epirubicin; Epoetin alfa estramustine; etoposide phosphate; etoposide (VP-16); exemestane; Filgrastim; floxuridine (intraarterial); fludarabine; fluorouracil (5-FU); fulvestrant; gemtuzumab ozogamicin; gleevec (imatinib); goserelin acetate; hydroxyurea; Ibritumomab Tiuxetan; idarubicin; ifosfamide; imatinib mesylate; Interferon alfa-2a; Interferon alfa-2b; irinotecan; letrozole; leucovorin; levamisole; lomustine (CCNU); meclorethamine (nitrogen mustard); megestrol acetate; melphalan (L-PAM); mercaptopurine (6-MP); mesna; methotrexate; methoxsalen; mitomycin C; mitotane; mitoxantrone; nandrolone phenpropionate; Nofetumomab; LOddC; Oprelvekin; oxaliplatin; paclitaxel; pamidronate; pegademase; Pegaspargase; Pegfilgrastim; pentostatin; pipobroman; plicamycin; mithramycin; porfimer sodium; procarbazine; quinacrine; Rasburicase; Rituximab; Sargramostim; streptozocin; surafenib; talbuvidine (LDT); talc; tamoxifen; tarceva (erlotinib); temozolomide; teniposide (VM-26); testolactone; thioguanine (6-TG); thiotepa; topotecan; toremifene; Tositumomab; Trastuzumab; tretinoinjATRA); Uracil Mustard; valrubicin; valtorcitabine (monoval LDC); vinblastine; vinorelbine; zoledronate; or a mixture thereof.

2. The method according to claim 1 wherein said cancerous tumor is a cancer of the breast, pancreas, stomach, prostate, kidney, colon, rectal, thyroid, lung, kidney, liver, brain/central nervous system or lymph (malignant lymphoid cancer).

3. The method according to claim 2 wherein said cancerous tumor is a cancer of the breast, pancreas, prostate or thyroid.

4. The method according to claim 3 wherein said cancerous tumor is a cancer of the pancreas.

5. The method according to claim 2 wherein said brain/central nervous system tumor is a meningioma, astrocytoma or glioma.

6. A method of treating a somatostatin receptor expressing cancerous tumor in a patient in need, the method comprising administering to said patient an effective amount of a composition comprising a chelate-linked peptide analog of somatostatin comprising a radionuclide, wherein said peptide analog of somatostatin is Tyr.sup.3-Octreotide, said chelate is 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) and said radionuclide is the .alpha. particle emitter .sup.213Bi (.sup.213Bi-DOTATOC), in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in combination with an additional anti-cancer compound, wherein said additional anti-cancer compound is gemcitabine, fluorouracil, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, capecitabine or a mixture thereof.
