(p)-boronophenylalanine complexes with fructose and related carbohydrates and polyols

摘要

The present invention is directed to salt-free and essentially salt-free p-boronophenylalanine-carbohydrate or p-boronophenylalanine-polyol complexes, as well as methods for making such compounds. In addition, the present invention provides methods for substantially solubilizing freeze-dried p-boronophenylalanine-carbohydrate and p-boronophenylalanine-polyol complexes. The present invention further provides compositions and methods for enhancing the solubility of boronophenylalanine.
