Famiglia di molecole a base di zuccheri ad uso terapeutico e relativo procedimento di produzione

The present invention concerns a family of sugar-based molecules for therapeutic use, comprising compounds with a structure having at least one sugar molecule with carrier function, bound to arsenic having active principle function, allowing the selective therapeutic treatment of tumoral pathologies, distinguished by a high cellular metabolism and, consequently, by a high glucose consumption. Also a process for the production of synthetic sugar-based compounds is the object of the present invention, as well as a process for the production of extracted sugar-based compounds, produced from natural sources. The compounds have the general formula I.
