Estramustine phosphate is an anti-mitotic chemotherapeutic drug with proven efficacy against cancer. The invention describes methods which potentiate the therapeutic benefit of intravenous estramustine phosphate. The invention provides for intravenous estramustine phosphate to be administered at a high dosage exceeding 1300 mg as a single dose. Efficacious enhancement of estramustine phosphate pharmacokinetics is thereby achieved. Further provided, estramustine phosphate may be intravenously administered for use in combinational regimens with other chemotherapeutic agent. The therapeutic advantages achieved using the intravenous estramustine phosphate formulation are applicable to treatment of a variety of cancers including prostate cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, melanoma, and other cancers.
Estramustine phosphate是一种抗有丝分裂的化疗药物,已被证明对癌症具有疗效。本发明描述了增强静脉注射Estramustine phosphate治疗效果的方法。本发明提供了将静脉注射Estramustine phosphate作为单剂量高剂量超过1300毫克的方法。因此,实现了Estramustine phosphate药代动力学的有效增强。此外,Estramustine phosphate可以通过静脉注射用于与其他化疗药物的联合方案。使用静脉注射Estramustine phosphate制剂实现的治疗优势适用于治疗多种癌症,包括前列腺癌、乳腺癌、肺癌、结直肠癌、胰腺癌、卵巢癌、黑色素瘤和其他癌症。
