Description

This application was filed under 35 U.S.C. .sctn.371 as a request for U.S. examination of International application No. PCT/JP95/0075 filed on Apr. 10, 1995.
1. Technical Field
The present invention relates to a novel platinum(II) complex and to an agent for treating malignant tumors which contains it as effective component.
2. Background Art
A number of platinum(II) complexes with antitumor activity have been reported, including cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) complex (cisplatin) (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication Nos. 1-311089 and 2-45494).
However, although cisplatin and carboplatin have been known to be very effective against testicular carcinoma and the like, there have been problems of resistance to and thus lowered potency of cisplatin and carboplatin when they are readministered to recurrent patients.
In addition, most of the hitherto known complexes have had disadvantages such as low solubility, either making it impossible to employ intravenous administration which is the method of administration for platinum complexes (for example, cyclobutane-1,1-dicarboxylate, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 60-10952), or giving them poor stability in aqueous solutions (for example, trimellitic acid, J. P. Andrelius et al., Proceedings of the Fifth International Symposium on Other Metal Compounds in Cancer Chemotherapy, 450 (1987)). The platinum complex described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 5-178873 is soluble enough for intravenous administration, but when the hydrophobicity of its substituents increases, the water-solubility of the platinum complex is reduced.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art by providing an agent for treating malignant tumors which is based on the discovery of a complex with antitumor activity which has an effect against cisplatin-resistant carcinoma, which is soluble enough for intravenous administration, and which is stable in aqueous solution.

EXAMPLE 14
This example illustrates the antitumor activity of compounds of the present invention.
A portion of 1.times.10.sup.5 mouse leukemia L1210 cells subcultured in DBA/2 mice were transplanted in the abdominal cavities of CDF.sub.1 mice (male, 6 weeks old, 6-10 animals/group). Each of the test compounds was intraperitoneally administered to the mice on the 1st, th and 9th days after the day of transplantation. Each of the preparations was used after being dissolved in distilled water.
The antitumor activity of the platinum complexes against the L1210 cell-planted mice was evaluated based on the T/C value determined by the following equation. ##EQU1##

EXAMPLE 15
A test of the in vitro cytotoxic effect of compound 15 and cisplatin on cisplatin-resistant mouse leukemia L1210 cells was conducted in the following manner.
1.times.10.sup.5 cisplatin-resistant L1210 cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at 100 .mu.l per well. About 100 .mu.l of the drugs at graded dilutions was added to each well. Culturing was then performed at 37.degree. C. for 5 days, and the cells were counted by the XTT colorimetric method. The 50% cell growth inhibition concentration (IC.sub.50) was calculated to determine the drug's effect.
