Abstract
##STR1## 4-Carboxyphthalato(1,2-diaminocyclohexane)platinum(II) (and alkali metal salts thereof) has shown antileukemic activity in mice against murine leukemia L1210. It is effective in dosages of 5-60 mg/kg of body weight and is potentiated in a treatment with cyclophosphamide (CY) (50 mg/kg of body weight) to which may be added 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (75 mg/kg of body weight) or hydroxyurea (HU) (1000 mg/kg of body weight). Some previous platinum chelate compounds show dosage limitation due to renal impairment but the free carboxyl of the present Pt compound offers a possible route of oral administration and absorption by the stomach. The Pt compound may be prepared by reacting the known dichloro(1,2-diaminocyclohexane)platinum(II) (NSC 194814) with silver nitrate to replace chloro with nitro. Subsequently, benzene tricarboxylic acid is added to form an off-white precipitate (2 hrs, dark, 5.degree. C.) of the desired product which is preferably utilized as the alkali metal salt. The 4-carboxyphthalato(1,2-diaminocyclohexane)platinum(II) and alkali metal salts thereof may be combined in multiple drug regimen with substantially improved yield cures over the parent compound. For example, the compound denoted Pt-307 may be combined in a dual regimen with cyclophosphamide (CY) and in a triple drug regimen of Pt-307 plus cyclophosphamide (CY) and either 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or hydroxyurea (HU) as the third component. Additionally, the present compound (NSC 271674) has shown superior results in testing for renal toxicity against the parent compound (NSC 119875, cis-dichlorodiamino platinum II) and further the present compound appears to be active against strains of murine leukemia wherein the same NSC 119875 has exhausted its activity.
