The present invention provides a composition and method for preventing the growth of and/or treating cancerous tumors and/or delaying onset of cancer from tumor-initiating cells. The composition includes an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) or Formula (II): ##STR00001##
or any pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The composition is administered alone or in combination with one or more chemotherapeutic agents, biological agents and/or anticancer agents. The method may include administering the composition of the present invention with or without the chemotherapeutic, biological, or other cancer treatment agent to a subject in need thereof intravenously, parenterally, nasally, topically or locally, orally, or by liposome, implant or via vessel-targeted nanosuspension delivery.

The instant application relates to deazapurines, thienopyrimidines and furopyrimidines with zinc-binding moiety based derivatives and their use in the treatment of phosphoinositide 3-kinase related diseases and disorders such as cancer. The instant application further relates to the treatment of histone deacetylase related disorders and diseases related to both histone deacetylase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase.

An object is to provide a therapeutic agent for a malignant mesothelioma and a method for selecting a patient having a malignant mesothelioma having a high expression level of oxytocin receptors. The object can be achieved by a therapeutic agent for a malignant mesothelioma, the therapeutic agent including, as an active ingredient, a compound that targets an oxytocin receptor.

A binding moiety (B) for Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX), the binding moiety comprising:

##STR00001##

The binding moiety is univalent, bivalent, or multivalent. A targeted therapeutic agent may comprise the binding moiety. The invention also includes a method for treating a disease expressing elevated levels of CAIX by administering the targeted therapeutic agent.
