The subject disclosure relates to compounds and compositions including chemotherapy agents and/or radiation therapy with bipolar trans carotenoids, and the use of such compounds for the treatment of various cancers including pancreatic and brain cancers.

A radiotherapy system according to an embodiment obtains a distribution of a medicament administered to a tumor, obtains a distribution of a radiation dose administered to the tumor, and produces a radiotherapy plan for the tumor with a combined use of the medicament and the radiation dose based on the medicament distribution and the dose distribution.

This invention relates the use of cortisol blockers (glucocorticoid receptor [GR] antagonists) for the treating or preventing treatment resistant prostate cancer, treating or preventing neoplasia, and treating or preventing infection related to acute or chronic injury or disease.

There are provided, inter alia, compositions including a scintillator nanocrystal linked to a chemical agent moiety through a scintillator-activated photocleavable linker, and methods of use thereof.

The present invention relates to the field of human health and more particularly concerns nanoparticles for use as a therapeutic vaccine in the context of radiotherapy in a subject suffering of a cancer, in particular of a metastatic cancer or of a liquid cancer.

Methods for treating tumors by administering FLASH radiation and a therapeutic agent to a patient with cancer are disclosed. The methods provide the dual benefits of anti-tumor efficacy plus normal tissue protection when combining therapeutic agents with FLASH radiation to treat cancer patients. The methods described herein also allow for the classification of patients into groups for receiving optimized radiation treatment in combination with a therapeutic agent based on patient-specific biomarker signatures. Also provided are radiation treatment planning methods and systems incorporating FLASH radiation and therapeutic agents.

A method and a system for producing a change in a medium. The method places in a vicinity of the medium at least one energy modulation agent. The method applies an initiation energy to the medium. The initiation energy interacts with the energy modulation agent to directly or indirectly produce the change in the medium. The system includes an initiation energy source configured to apply an initiation energy to the medium to activate the energy modulation agent.

The present disclosure relates to uses of TG02, for treating a glioma in a pediatric human subject. In certain embodiments, the glioma can be a pediatric high-grade glioma (PHGG), e.g., a diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), and/or a H3.3-mutated glioma (e.g., a H3K27M-mutated glioma). The present disclosure further provides pharmaceutical compositions and kits that include an ERK5 inhibitor.

A method and system for treating a subject with a disorder which provides within the subject at least one photoactivatable drug for treatment of the subject, applies initiation energy from at least one source to generate inside the subject a preferential x-ray flux for generation of Cherenkov radiation (CR) light capable of activating at least one photoactivatable drug, and from the CR light, activating inside the subject the at least one photoactivatable drug to thereby treat the disorder.
