Psoralen compounds of compounds having formulae 1A-10A, 1B-10B, 1C-10C, 1D-10D, 1E-10E, 1F-10F, 1G-10G, and 1H-5H as shown in FIG. 1, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof; and their use in methods for the treatment of a cell proliferation disorder in a subject, pharmaceutical compositions containing the psoralen derivatives, a kit for performing the method, and a method for causing an autovaccine effect in a subject using the method.

The present disclosure relates to methods of combining chemical enhancement and physical enhancement to produce a combined synergistic total enhancement, and more specifically to methods of irradiating samples containing nanomaterials capable of producing chemical or physical enhancement to produce combined synergistic total enhancement.

The present invention is directed at bouvardin analogs arid related compounds for the treatment of disorders including cancer. Provided herein are bouvardin analogs and related compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and kits comprising at least one bouvardin analog or related compound, and methods for treating disorders including cancer. In some aspects the compounds inhibit translation elongation at the ribosome. The compounds are used in combination with radiation therapy or with known chemotherapeutic compositions.

The use of dianhydrogalactitol provides a novel therapeutic modality for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme and medulloblastoma. Dianhydrogalactitol acts as an alkylating agent on DNA that creates N7 methylation. Dianhydrogalactitol is effective in suppressing the growth of cancer stem cells and is active against tumors that are refractory to temozolomide; the drug acts independently of the MGMT repair mechanism.

Methods and compounds are described for treating solid tumors, and in particular, malignant, neoplastic solid tumors such as glioblastoma and medulloblastoma, by inhibiting protein kinase MRK/ZAK activity. Also provided are pharmaceutical composition containg a MRK/ZAK inhibitor compound and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a method of sensitizing tumor cells to radiation therapy comprising administering an effective amount of the MRK/ZAK inhibitor compound.

Provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions, comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and therapeutically effective amounts of high affinity Natural Killer (haNK) cells and a therapeutic antibody in the form of a combined preparation. Also provided herein are methods for treating cancer by using the pharmaceutical composition comprising the haNK cells and the therapeutic antibody.

A system and method for light stimulation within a medium. Products, compositions, systems, and methods for modifying a target structure which mediates or is associated with a biological activity, including treatment of conditions, disorders, or diseases mediated by or associated with a target structure, such as a virus, cell, subcellular structure or extracellular structure. The methods may be performed in situ in a non-invasive manner by application of an initiation energy to a subject thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure directly or via a modulation agent. The methods may further be performed by application of an initiation energy to a subject in situ to activate a pharmaceutical agent directly or via an energy modulation agent, thus producing an effect on or change to the target structure. Kits containing products or compositions formulated or configured and systems for use in practicing these methods.

Provided are methods of treating a human patient having cancer by administering IPdR to the patient in the form of an oral drug and administering radiation therapy (RT) to the patient. The method can also include administering a chemotherapeutic drug or biologic agent to the patient. Also provided are methods for optimizing IPdR sensitization for radiation therapy for a cancer patient having been administered IPdR.

Provided herein are compositions, systems, kits, and methods for treating cancer in a subject with androgen receptor positive cancer cells by sensitizing such cancer cells with anti-androgen receptor therapy (e.g., Enzalutamide or anti-androgen antibody), and then treating with radiation therapy.

Compositions, kits and methods for treating cancer in a subject in need thereof are disclosed involving one or more genes the suppression of which renders the cancer chemosensitive and/or radiosensitive.
