Abstract

Methods to inhibit tumor growth and to radiosensitize hypoxic cells and pharmaceutical compositions therefor are disclosed. These methods and compositions use compounds of the formula EQU PtX.sub.n (NR.sub.2 H) (L) (1) PA0 wherein n is 1 or 2, and PA0 wherein when n is 2, X is a monovalent biologically acceptable anion, and when n is 1, X is a divalent biologically acceptable anion; PA0 each R is independently H or alkyl, or both Rs together are a piperidino or morpholino residue; and PA0 L is a radiosensitizing ligand selected from a mononitro-substituted imidazole, a mononitro-substituted pyrazole, a mononitro-substituted thiazole and a mononitro-substituted isothiazole.
