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 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, head, neck, and surrounding tissue. The invention is also directed to using these carborane-containing tetraphenyl porphyrin compounds to 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、可视化和诊断中的应用方法。更具体地说,本发明涉及低毒性的含有碳硼烷的5,10,15,20-四苯基卟啉化合物,以及它们在脑部、头部、颈部和周围组织肿瘤治疗中的应用方法,特别是硼中子俘获疗法(BNCT)和光动力疗法(PDT)。该发明还涉及使用这些含有碳硼烷的四苯基卟啉化合物进行肿瘤成像和/或诊断的方法,例如MRI、SPECT或PET。
