Novel fluorine-containing bisphosphonic acid derivative and use thereof

Abstract

A series of fluorine-containing bisphosphonic acids in which an alkylamine side chain is added, a series of fluorine-containing bisphosphonic acids in which an amino group substituted by a heterocyclic group or a heterocyclic group containing a nitrogen atom is added, to the carbon atom of P—C(F)—P, and a series of fluorine-containing bisphosphonate derivatives in which the acid moiety thereof is esterified by an alkoxymethyl group such as POM group, n-butanoyloxymethyl (BuOM) group and the like, that is, the fluorine-containing bisphosphonic acid and fluorine-containing bisphosphonate derivative represented by the following formula (I): wherein each symbol is as defined in the DESCRIPTION, can efficiently induce proliferation of peripheral blood γδ T cells that express Vγ2Vδ2 T cell receptor having superior cytotoxicity against tumor cells and virus infected cells, immunize tumor cells and virus infected cells, and can induce cytotoxicity by γδ T cells.
