Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A formulation, including: (a) a first medicament, wherein the first medicament includes an isothiocyanate functional compound/surfactant; and (b) a second medicament, wherein the second medicament includes an antineoplastic agent, such as a cytotoxic antineoplastic agent and/or a targeted antineoplastic agent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent of the United States is: 1. A medicament formulation, comprising: a first medicament, wherein the first medicament comprises an isothiocyanate functional surfactant; a second medicament, wherein the second medicament comprises an antineoplastic agent; and wherein the weight ratio of the first medicament to the second medicament is in a range of about 1:10 to 10:1. 2. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein the isothiocyanate functional surfactant comprises at least one isothiocyanate functional group associated with an aliphatic and/or aromatic carbon atom of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant. 3. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein the isothiocyanate functional surfactant comprises a lysine derivative, wherein the lysine derivative comprises an α-nitrogen and a ε-nitrogen, and wherein an alkyl and/or alkanoyl substituent comprising at least approximately 8 carbon atoms is associated with the α-nitrogen, and further wherein at least one isothiocyanate functional group is associated with the ε-nitrogen. 4. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant comprises a non-polar moiety (NP) and a polar moiety (P), and wherein at least one isothiocyanate functional group (NCS) is associated with the polar moiety (P), the non-polar moiety (NP), or both the polar moiety (P) and the non-polar moiety (NP). 5. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: wherein R 1 comprises an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 1 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein the carbon atom(s) may be a linking group to, or part of, a halogen, a N, O, and/or S containing moiety, and/or one or more functional groups comprising alcohols, esters, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and combinations thereof; a linkage to a dimer; a linkage to an oligomer; and/or a linkage to a polymer; wherein R 2 comprises NCS; and wherein R 3 -R 5 are the same or different and comprise H; OH; an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 1 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein the carbon atom(s) may be a linking group to, or part of, a halogen, a N, O, and/or S containing moiety, and/or one or more functional groups comprising alcohols, esters, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and combinations thereof; a linkage to a dimer; a linkage to an oligomer; and/or a linkage to a polymer with the proviso that at least one of R 3 -R 5 comprise an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 8 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s). 6. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: wherein R 1 is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group containing 1 to 25 carbon atom(s); wherein R 2 is selected from the group consisting of NCS; and wherein R 3 -R 5 are each independently selected from the group consisting of H; OH; and an alkyl, and alkanoyl group containing 1 to 25 carbon atom(s) with the proviso that at least one of R 3 -R 5 is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl, and alkanoyl, group containing 8 to 25 carbon atoms. 7. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: wherein X comprises an integer ranging from approximately 1 to approximately 25, and wherein Y comprises an integer ranging from approximately 6 to approximately 25. 8. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: 9. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein a protonated form of the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by at least one of the following chemical structures: 10. The medicament formulation according to claim 1 , wherein the isothiocyanate functional surfactant is represented by the following chemical structure: wherein R 1 comprises an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 1 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein the carbon atom(s) may be a linking group to, or part of, a halogen, a N, O, and/or S containing moiety, and/or one or more functional groups comprising alcohols, esters, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and combinations thereof; a linkage to a dimer; a linkage to an oligomer; and/or a linkage to a polymer; wherein R 2 comprises NCS; wherein R 3 -R 5 are the same or different and comprise H; OH; an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 1 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein the carbon atom(s) may be a linking group to, or part of, a halogen, a N, O, and/or S containing moiety, and/or one or more functional groups comprising alcohols, esters, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and combinations thereof; a linkage to a dimer; a linkage to an oligomer; and/or a linkage to a polymer with the proviso that at least one of R 3 -R 5 comprise an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 8 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein X comprises a counter cation such as, but not limited to, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, s-block metals, d-block metals, p-block metals, NZ 4 + , wherein Z comprises, H, R 6 , OR 6 , and wherein R 6 comprises an alkyl, cycloalkyl, polycycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkoxy, alkanoyl, aroyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and/or cyano group containing approximately 1 to approximately 25 carbon atom(s), wherein the carbon atom(s) may be a linking group to, or part of, a halogen, a N, O, and/or S containing moiety, and/or one or more functional groups comprising alcohols, esters, ammonium salts, phosphonium salts, and combinations thereof; a linkage to a dimer; a link
