Pharmaceutical preparations and methods for inhibiting tumors
View Patent ↗The invention provides pharmaceutical compositions and method for inhibiting growth of prostatic adenocarcinoma, stomach cancer, breast cancer, endometrial, ovarian or other cancers of epithelial secretion, or benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) In one embodiment the pharmaceutical composition includes human rHuPSP94, antigenic portions thereof, and functionally equivalent polypeptides thereof. In another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition includes a mixture of human rHuPSP94, antigenic portions thereof, and functionally equivalent polypeptides thereof and an anticancer drug which may be administered in an appropriate dosage form, dosage quantity and dosage regimen to a patient suffering from, for example of prostatic adenocarcinoma, stomach cancer, breast cancer, endometrial, ovarian or other cancers of epithelial secretion, benign prostate hyperplasia, or (BPH) gastrointestinal cancer. The anticancer drug of the latter mixture may be one selected from the group of drugs including mitomycin, idarubicin, cisplatin, 5-fluoro-uracil, methotrexate, adriamycin, daunomycin, taxol, taxol derivative, and mixtures thereof.
1. An isolated polypeptide which inhibits the growth of prostatic adenocarcinoma, wherein said polypeptide consists of SEQ ID NO.:4.
2. A pharmaceutical composition comprising:
a) the isolated polypeptide of claim 1 ; and
b) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
3. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 2 , further comprising an anticancer drug.
4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 3 , wherein said anticancer drug is selected from the group consisting of mitomycin, idarubicin, cisplatin, 5-fluoro-uracil, methotrexate, adriamycin, daunomycin, taxol, taxotere, taxane, and mixtures thereof.
5. A method of treating a patient having a tumor or having prostatic adenocarcinoma, the method comprising administering to the patient the pharmaceutical composition of claim 2 .
