'''METHOD OF TREATMENT OF ONCOLOGICAL PATIENTS'''
FIELD:
Medicine OncologyPat №2071767 RussiaSUBSTANCE: Method involves the use of the following preparations: semicarbazide hydrochloride urea
cadmium halides at
mass number 113 Additionally
stable isotopes of
gadolinium can be used in part its oxides at
mass number 155-157 and addional drugs
The first experimental study in humans were conducted in 1957-1962 in
Russia as an open pilot trials:
Cancer semicarbazide-cadmium therapy and
experimental burn treatment( RESULTS OF THE USE OF SEMICARBAZIDE-CADMIUM THERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH INCURABLE MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS Vopr Onkol 1963;18:92-104 (US National Library of Medicine) "EXPERIENCE IN THE USE OF SEMICARBAZIDE-CADMIUM THERAPY IN PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM MALIGNANT NEOPLASMS IN THE INCURABLE PERIOD" Volokhonskaya ML ; Voronko ND ; Vysheslavtsev SI ; Yaroshevskii FYu

Clinical use of semicarbazide gives the evidence that an inflammatory reaction can be reduced by blocking the enzymatic activity of the Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO)The SSAO activity was found significantly increased in blood and tissues in some pathological conditions The
enzyme activity has been reported to be elevated in diabetes and cancerThe mean specific activity of SSAO was significantly elevated in the group of patients having prostate cancer with skeletal metastases Semicarbazide ( and SSAO blockers ) can reduce inflammatory response can protect against the progressive vascular complications caused by
oxidative stress It also can reduce pain (EUROMEDICAINTERNATIONALER MEDIZINISCHER KONGRESS HANNOVER 2007 GERMANY)
The SSAO-inhibitors also appears able to protect endothelial cells against toxic effects of free radicals Semicarbazides are promising drugs for cancer therapy:
United States Patent 6849631 "Semicarbazides and their uses" : This
invention also provides a novel method of treating cancer or
other proliferative diseases by administering a therapeutically effective amount of one of these compounds or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt form thereof)
