A process is provided for preparing 4-alkyl- or 4-aryl-oxycarbonyl paclitaxel analogs which includes the steps of converting paclitaxel into a C-7 acylprotected paclitaxel employing an electrophilic protecting group, such as benzoyloxycarbonyl, and converting the C-7 protected analog into the 4-alkyloxycarbonyl or 4-aryloxycarbonyl paclitaxel analog. Novel intermediates produced in the process are also provided.

The present invention relates to methods of using the expression of ILTL3 ligand or ILT3 on certain types of cancer cells as a diagnostic tool. Methods are provided for treating ILT3-ligand expressing cancers, such as T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia), for example by administering ILT3, the extracellular domain of ILT3 or ILT3Fc conjugated to a cytotoxic agent to kill the targeted cancer cell. Other methods are provided for treating cancers that express ILT3 on their surface, such as monocytic forms of AML, for example by administering anti-ILT3 antibodies conjugated to a cytotoxic agent.
This report describes the synthesis of four novel paclitaxel based prodrugs with glycan conjugation (1-4). Glycans were conjugated using an ester or ether bond as the linker between 2'-paclitaxel and the 2'-glucose or glucuronic acid moiety. These prodrugs showed good water solubility and selective cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines, but showed reduced toxicity toward normal cell lines and cancer cell lines with low expression levels of GLUTs. The ester conjugated prodrug 1 showed the most cytotoxicity among the prodrugs examined and could be transported into cells via GLUTs. Fluorescent and confocal microscopy demonstrated that targeted cells exhibited morphological changes in tubulin and chromosomal alterations that were similar to those observed with paclitaxel treatment. Therefore, these glycan-based prodrugs may be good drug candidates for cancer therapy, and the glycan conjugation approach is an alternative method to enhance the targeted delivery of other drugs to cancer cells that overexpress GLUTs.
