         2 .- 4 . (canceled) 
     
     
         5 . The inclusion compound of  claim 1  characterized in that said fumagillol derivative salt is selected from a group consisting of salts of fumagillol derivative with hydrochloric acid, bromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, oxalic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid or para-toluenesulfonic acid. 
     
     
         6 . The inclusion compound in  claim 1  characterized in preparing by dissolving hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in distilled water, and adding fumagillol derivative or its salt under stirring. 
     
     
         7 . The inclusion compound in  claim 1  characterized in that the inclusion compound is prepared by dissolving hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in distilled water, and adding fumagillol derivative or its salt under stirring after adjusting the solution pH in a range of 6-8 with dilute hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution. 
     
     
         8 . The inclusion compound in  claim 1  characterized in that the inclusion compound is prepared by dissolving hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in buffer solution which pH was pre-adjusted in a range of 6-8 with phosphate, and adding fumagillol derivative or its salt under stirring. 
     
     
         9 . The inclusion compound of  claim 6  characterized in that the inclusion compound is obtained by further lyophilization step for the final solution obtained after stirring. 
     
     
         10 . The inclusion compound of  claim 6  characterized in that molar ratio of fumagillol derivative or its salt to hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin is 1:1 to 1:10. 
     
     
         11 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising the inclusion compound in  claim 1  and pharmaceutically acceptable additives. 
     
     
         12 . The pharmaceutical composition in  claim 11  characterized in that the pharmaceutically acceptable additive is at least one selected from a group consisting of pharmaceutically acceptable diluents, buffers, flavors, binders, thickening agent, lubricants and preservatives.
