##STR00001## wherein R.sub.0, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, and L are defined herein. Also disclosed is a method for treating a neoplastic disease, autoimmune disease, and inflammatory disorder with these compounds.

A method of providing sustained-release topical treatment of a condition affecting an internal body cavity is provided. The method comprises administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a thermoreversible hydrogel and an active pharmaceutical ingredient to an internal body cavity of the urinary tract. After administration, the concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in urothelium of the internal body cavity is increased when compared to the concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in urothelium of the internal body cavity following administration of a control composition comprising the same dose and concentration of active pharmaceutical ingredient in water.
