Inventor: FARAM MICHAEL GUY
IPC: E03F5/10
Filed: 2008-07-25
Abstract: A vortex flow control device is manufactured by forming a template unit (2) having end walls (4, 6), of which the wall (4) has an outlet opening (5), and a partial outer wall (8). The partial outer wall (8) has an opening (16). A plate (26) is subsequently secured to the template unit (2) to partially close the opening (16), to leave an inlet (30) (Figure 2). The size of the plate (26) is selected so as to result in an inlet (30) sized to achieve required flow characteristics for the finished device. The plate (26) is inclined to a planar portion (14) on the opposite side of the inlet (30) at an angle in the range 85° to 95°, so as to induce turbulence in the region of the inlet (30).

Abstract: A unique class of N-acyl O-amino phenol prodrugs of CBI-TMI and CBI-indole2 were synthesized and shown to be prodrugs, subject to reductive activation by nucleophilic cleavage of a weak N-O bond, effectively releasing the free drug in functional cellular assays for cytotoxic activity approaching or matching the activity of the free drug, yet remain essentially stable to ex vivo DNA  alkylation conditions. Most impressively, assessment of the in vivo antitumor activity of a representative O- (acylamino) prodrug, 8, indicate that they approach the potency and exceed the efficacy of the free drug itself (CBI-indole2), indicating that the inactive prodrugs not only effectively release the free drug in vivo, but that they offer additional advantages related to a controlled or targeted release in vivo.
