The present invention is directed to low toxicity boronated compounds and methods for their use in the treatment, visualization, and diagnosis of tumors. More specifically, the present invention is directed to low toxicity glycosylated carborane-containing 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin compounds and methods for their use particularly in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of tumors of the brain, and head and neck. The invention is also directed to using these glycosylated carborane-containing tetraphenylporphyrin compounds in methods of tumor imaging and/or diagnosis such as MRI, SPECT, or PET.
本发明涉及低毒性硼化合物及其在肿瘤治疗、可视化和诊断中的使用方法。更具体地说,本发明涉及低毒性糖基化的含有5,10,15,20-四苯基卟啉的碳硼烷化合物及其在硼中子俘获治疗(BNCT)和光动力疗法(PDT)中的使用方法,特别用于治疗脑部、头颈部肿瘤。该发明还涉及使用这些糖基化的碳硼烷化合物在肿瘤成像和/或诊断方法中的应用,如MRI、SPECT或PET。
