Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A superior antitumor agent is provided. A salt of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)cytosine shows at least one or more of such characteristics as (1) it has superior antitumor activity, (2) it shows superior crystallinity, (3) it shows high water solubility, (4) it does not show deliquescent property, (5) it shows superior flowability, (6) it shows superior tableting property, (7) it can be manufactured with less environmental load, and (8) it can be manufactured in a large scale, and therefore it is useful as a bulk drug for medicaments.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A crystal of methanesulfonate of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)cytosine showing characteristic peaks at diffraction angles (2θ) of 19.8, 21.8, 27.5, 28.4, and 29.9 degrees in powder X-ray diffractometry. 2. A pharmaceutical composition containing the crystal according to claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable additive. 3. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 2 , which is for use in a treatment of a tumor. 4. A method for preparing the crystal according to claim 1 , which comprises the step of converting 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)cytosine into the methanesulfonate thereof and crystallizing said salt. 5. A method for treating a tumor in a subject comprising the step of administering to a subject in need of such treatment the crystal according to claim 1 . 6. A crystal of hydrochloride of 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)cytosine showing characteristic peaks at diffraction angles (2θ) of 9.2, 14.7, 15.7, 22.9, and 27.3 degrees in powder X-ray diffractometry. 7. A pharmaceutical composition containing the crystal according to claim 6 and a pharmaceutically acceptable additive. 8. The pharmaceutical composition according to claim 6 , which is for use in a treatment of a tumor. 9. A method for preparing the crystal according to claim 6 , which comprises the step of converting 1-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-4-thio-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)cytosine into the hydrochloride thereof and crystallizing said salt. 10. A method for treating a tumor in a subject comprising the step of administering to a subject in need of such treatment the crystal according to claim 6 .
