Summary:PURPOSE:To obtain a new, lowly toxic and sustainedly releasable adriamycin derivative excellent in carcinostatic activity in a wide dose range by chemically combining adriamycin with cyclodextrin through a dicarboxylate. CONSTITUTION:An adriamycin derivative of formula I (wherein R is a bivalent hydrocarbon group; CD is a cyclodextrin residue; m is 1-8; and n is 0-8), which can be produced, for example, by acylating cyclodextrin, desirably gamma-cyclodextrin with a dicarboxylic acid of formula II or its acyl-forming derivative and reacting the acylated cyclodextrin of formula III (wherein Y is a cation) with 14- halodaunomycin or its salt. When this derivative is used as a carcinostatic agent for the treatment of a cancer, it is orally or parenterally administered in a dose of usually 0.1-20mg/kg/day (in terms of the weight of adriamycin).
