These macromolecular imaging agents have clearance properties that mimic the pharmacokinetic properties of coadministrated drugs, so as to be useful in quantifying the range and dosage level of therapeutic drugs using MR imaging. E–206–2000 ‘‘Method for increasing the distribution of therapeutic agents:’’ ‘‘Method for increasing the distribution of nucleic acids.’’ The invention pertains to the reliance of therapies on the local parenchymal delivery of macromolecules or nucleic acids for success. However, the volume of distribution of many of these potential therapeutic agents is restricted by their interactions with the extracellular matrix and cellular receptors. Heparinsulfate proteoglycans are cell surface components which bind to an array of molecules such as growth factors, cytokines and chemokines and viruses such as cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus and HIV. The invention provides a method of dramatically increasing the volume of distribution and effectiveness of certain therapeutic agents after local delivery by the use of facilitating agents as described in Neuroreport. 2001 Jul 3;12(9):1961–4 entitled ‘‘Convection enhanced delivery of AAV–2 combined with heparin increases TK gene transfer in the rat brain’’ and in Exp Neurol. 2001 Mar;168(1):155–61 entitled ‘‘Heparin coinfusion during convection-enhanced delivery (CED) increases the distribution of the glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) ligand family in rat striatum and enhances the pharmacological activity of neurturin.’’ These methods are especially useful when used in conjunction with technology described and claimed in the convection enhanced delivery technology claimed in U.S. patent 5,720,720 The prospective exclusive license will be royalty bearing and will comply with the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7.
