PURPOSE:To provide a carcinostatic agent containing a specific aromatic aldehyde derivative as an active component, active against a cell cancerized by SV40 cancerizing virus and exhibiting high sensitivity. CONSTITUTION:The objective agent contains, as an active component, a compound of formula (phi is benzene nucleus; R is alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkylaminoalkyl, pyridyl, piperidylmethyl, hydroxyphenyl or benzylideneaminoalkyl; R' is H, alkyliminoalkyl, alkylaminoalkyliminoalkyl or hydroxyalkyliminoalkyl; or phi is naphthalene nucleus, R is alkyl or hydroxyalkyl and R' is H) or its acid addition salt, e.g. N-benzylidene-t- butylamine. The ratio of the compound in the carcinostatic composition is preferably 0.3-15.0wt% for oral administration or transmucosal absorption and 0.01-10wt% for parenteral administration. |
