The present invention provides a process for purifying a monoterpene or sesquiterpene having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The process comprises the steps of derivatizing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) to produce a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, separating the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) derivative, and releasing the monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) from the derivative. Also encompassed by the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) having a purity greater than about 98.5% (w/w). The purified monoterpene can be used to treat a disease such as cancer. The present monoterpene (or sesquiterpene) may be administered alone, or may be co-administered with radiation or other therapeutic agents, such as chemotherapeutic agents.
本发明提供了一种提纯单萜或倍半萜的工艺,其纯度大于约 98.5%(w/w)。该工艺包括以下步骤:将单萜烯(或倍半萜)衍生化,生成单萜烯(或倍半萜)衍生物;分离单萜烯(或倍半萜)衍生物;从衍生物中释放单萜烯(或倍半萜)。本发明的范围还包括一种药物组合物,该组合物包含纯度大于约 98.5%(w/w)的单萜烯(或倍半萜)。纯化的单萜可用于治疗癌症等疾病。本单萜烯(或倍半萜)可单独给药,也可与辐射或其他治疗剂(如化疗剂)共同给药。
