Description:
This application is a continuation-in-part of Ser. No. 074,825, filed July 17, 1987, now abandoned. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Platinum anti-cancer agents are known in the literature. One of the most well publicized of the platinum anti-cancer agents is cis-diammine-dichloroplatinum (II), also known as cis-DDP and cisplatin. A discussion of cisplatin and its usefulness in the treatment of various types of cancer, such as testicular carcinoma, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer, and head and neck cancer can be found in Zwelling, Cancer Chemotherapy, pp. 105-122 (1985). 
     Problems arise when such platinum agents are used in cancer treatment however. The toxicity of platinum to the bone marrow and kidneys precludes large sized dosages which can, in effect, render such treatment ineffective. Also, the overall desirability of and confidence in chemotherapy based upon known platinum active ingredients is decreased due to the drastic consequences to bone marrow and kidneys of the use of toxic levels of platinum. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention is directed toward platinum anti-cancer agents having increased water solubility. Such an increase in water solubility aids the body in passing the platinum out of the system, thus preserving healthy bone marrow and kidneys. The water solubility of the platinum anti-cancer agents is enhanced by the presence of a mono or disaccharide group on the platinum active ingredient compound. 
     Pharmaceutical compositions containing the active ingredient and methods of treating carcinoma by administering said compositions to patients suffering from carcinoma are also discussed.

     The cyclohexane-1,2-diammine-platinum(II) salt of 2-(acetylamino)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxyglucopyranosyl-amino-thioxomethyl-imino diacetic acid and cisplatin were tested against murine P388 leukemia. The murine P388 leukemia system is known to be sensitive to cisplatin. The leukemia was maintained intraperitoneally in female DBA/2 mice. 
     Prior to administration, cisplatin was dissolved in ethanol. The solution was then adjusted to 5% ethanol, 95% sterile water. The cyclohexane-1,2-diammine-platinum(II) salt of 2-(acetylamino)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxyglucopyranosylamino-thioxomethyl-imino diacetic acid was dissolved in sterile water at 4 degrees celsius immediately prior to administration. 
     Each compound was administered intraperitoneally to groups of CD2F 1  male mice on day 1 after intraperitoneal implantation of 1×10 6  P388 leukemia cells. P388 antileukemic activity for each compound was assessed by mean survival days and percentage increased life span (% ILS). 
     ILS is calculated as follows: 
     
         % ILS=(T-C)/C×100 
    
     wherein T is the mean survival days of the treated mice and C is the mean survival days of the untreated mice. The results of the experimentation are shown in the following table.
