Problems solved by technology

Its greater value may be reflected in the inhibition of peripheral primary tumors, reducing or reducing the occurrence of brain metastases; once brain metastases occur, its effect will drop sharply, and in more cases, its effect on intracranial tumors needs to be further confirmed
In addition, these emerging targeted drugs benefit a small group of people, and the cost of treatment is high. For example, the newly developed CAR-T cell therapy by Novartis has a treatment cost of up to 3 million yuan, which is out of reach for most patients

Abstract

The invention provides an application of nifurtimox in the preparation of drugs for treating cancer-derived metastatic encephaloma. The cancer preferably refers tois lung cancer, breast cancer or skincancer. The nifurtimox is an anti-parasitic drug. The metastatic encephaloma of the cancer is a tumor formed by the metastasizing of malignant tumors from other parts of the body to the intracalvarium, and the tumor is serious in consequences and high in a mortality rate. However, few drugs are available for the treatment of metastatic encephaloma, so the invention provides the application of nifurtimox in the preparation of drugs for treating cancer-derived metastatic encephaloma, which greatly solves this technical problem.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application of nifurolimus in the preparation of medicines for treating brain metastases derived from cancer, and belongs to the field of medicines. technical background [0002] Metastatic brain tumors are often the most common feature of cancer, especially lung, breast, or skin cancer. [0003] The proportion of melanoma with brain metastases reaches 40%. Brain metastases are the leading cause of death in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and breast cancer. Current drug options for treating such patients are limited, especially after brain metastases. [0004] Primary lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in my country, and one of the most common distant metastatic sites of lung cancer is the brain. Among all brain metastases, lung cancer ranks first in men, followed by malignant melanoma; in women, lung cancer ranks first, followed by breast cancer. Brain is one of the common ...
