Method for treating skin cancer
A method for treating skin cancer including the steps of applying an isothiocyanate functional surfactant to an area affected by skin cancer, wherein the isothiocyanate functional surfactant comprises at least one isothiocyanate functional group associated with an aliphatic and/or aromatic carbon atom of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant.
1. A method for treating skin cancer, comprising the step(s) of:
applying a lysine derivative to an area affected by skin cancer, wherein the lysine derivative comprises an α-nitrogen and a ε-nitrogen, and wherein an alkyl and/or alkanoyl substituent comprising at least approximately 8 carbon atoms is associated with the α-nitrogen, and further wherein at least one isothiocyanate functional group is associated with the ε-nitrogen.
2. The method for treating skin cancer, according to claim 1 , wherein the skin cancer is selected from one of the groups comprising basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and merkel cell carcinoma.
3. A method for treating skin cancer, comprising the step(s) of:
applying a lysine derivative to an area affected by skin cancer, wherein the lysine derivative includes an α-nitrogen and a ε-nitrogen, and wherein an alkyl and/or alkanoyl substituent comprising at least 8 carbon atoms is associated with the α-nitrogen, and further wherein at least one isothiocyanate functional group is associated with the ε-nitrogen.
4. The method for treating skin cancer, according to claim 3 , wherein the skin cancer is selected from one of the groups comprising basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and merkel cell carcinoma.
5. A method for treating skin cancer, comprising the step(s) of:
applying a lysine derivative to an area affected by skin cancer, wherein the lysine derivative comprises an α-nitrogen and a ε-nitrogen, and wherein an alkyl substituent comprising at least 8 carbon atoms is associated with the α-nitrogen, and further wherein at least one isothiocyanate functional group is associated with the ε-nitrogen.
6. The method for treating skin cancer, according to claim 5 , wherein the skin cancer is selected from one of the groups comprising basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and merkel cell carcinoma.
