The present invention relates to a method for the treatment of patients suffering from certain neoplastic disease states which comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein m is an integer 6 to 9, Z is a saturated (C.sub.2 -C.sub.6) alkylene moiety, each R group independently is hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, or n-propyl except that both R groups cannot be hydrogen when Z is a straight chain; or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof. Said treatment can optionally comprise conjunctive therapy with a polyamine oxidase inhibitor. The invention also relates to certain novel polyamine derivatives.
本发明涉及一种治疗某些肿瘤疾病的患者的方法,其包括给予化合物的治疗有效量,该化合物的
化学式为:##STR1## 其中m是6到9的整数,Z是饱和的(C.sub.2-C.sub.6)烷基亚基,每个R基独立地是氢、甲基、乙基或正丙基,但当Z是直链时,两个R基不能同时为氢;或其药学可接受的酸加盐。该治疗可选择性地与
多胺氧化酶
抑制剂联合治疗。本发明还涉及某些新型
