Bisphosphonate-Prostatic Acid Phosphatase Inhibitor Conjugates To Treat Prostate Cancer Bone Metastasis

摘要

The present invention concerns conjugate compounds comprising a bisphosphonate covalently bonded to a prostatic acid phosphatase inhibitor and compositions comprising such conjugates. Methods for treating and inhibiting prostate cancer bone metastases, and determining whether a conjugate is useful for such treatment are also provided. In some instances, the bisphosphonate is alendronate, and it is covalently bonded to either tartaric acid or glyceric acid.
