| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has attracted attention as a potential treatment for malignant brain tumors. Although many kinds of boron-containing compounds have been reported as boron delivery agents (boron carriers) for BNCT, only two compounds are used for the treatment of brain tumors via BNCT. In order to develop the novel boron pharmaceuticals for BNCT, we studied the following three research theme; i) development of novel reaction for dodecaborate, ii) synthesis of novel dodecaborate containing boron pharmaceuticals, iii) evaluation of novel boron pharmaceuticals. In the results of above study, the useful boron compound for BNCT is synthesized by the novel reaction method for dodecaborate.
