A method of using 1,2,4-benzotriazine oxides, some of which are novel compounds, as radiosensitizers and selective cytotoxic agents is disclosed. These compounds are shown to specifically radiosensitize hypoxic tumor cells. Some are additionally disclosed to be useful as specific cytotoxic agents for these cells. They also show an unexpected ability to radiosensitize aerobic cells following or preceding a hypoxic incubation of the cells with the drug. This provides a basis for selective radiosensitization of tumors compared to normal cells. A novel method for preparing the 1,2,4-benzotriazine oxides is also disclosed.
本发明揭示了一种使用1,2,4-苯并三氮唑氧化物的方法,其中一些是新型化合物,作为放射增敏剂和选择性细胞毒剂。这些化合物被证明能够特异性地增敏缺氧肿瘤细胞。其中一些还被披露为这些细胞的特异性细胞毒剂。此外,它们还表现出在药物与细胞进行缺氧孵育之前或之后,对有氧细胞具有意外的增敏能力。这为与正常细胞相比选择性增敏肿瘤提供了基础。本发明还揭示了一种制备1,2,4-苯并三氮唑氧化物的新方法。
