| 摘要 |
The present invention is directed to compositions that inhibit glycolysis, perferentially in cancer. Specifically, the anticancer compositions comprise 3-halo-2-oxopropionate and its derivatives, such as ester derivatives. However, in specific embodiments, the anticancer composition is sodium 3-halo-2-oxopropionate, such as sodium 3-bromo-2-oxopropionate and a stabilizing agent, such as carbonic acid. In particular embodiments, the compositions of the present invention further comprise a metabolic intermediate for normal cells to utilize in a pathway for an alternate energy source, thereby providing protection to normal cells. In other embodiments, the 3-halo-2-oxopropionate or its ester derivative is used in combination with an additional cancer therapy, such as radiation and/or a drug.
