Mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressors contribute to the development and progression of cancer. The present disclosure describes methods of recovering wild-type function to p53 mutants by treating a cancer with a compound and a second agent. The compounds of the present invention can bind to mutant p53 and restore the ability of the p53 mutant to bind DNA and activate downstream effectors involved in tumor suppression. The disclosed compounds can be used in combination with a secondary agent to reduce the progression of cancers that contain a p53 mutation.

Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is premature delivery prior to 37 weeks of pregnancy and is a leading cause of infant mortality worldwide. sPTB is associated with a unique gene expression profile. Identified herein are numerous safe and proven therapeutic compositions used for unrelated indications that have the biological effect of reversing, in part, the gene expression profile of sPTB and which can be used in preventative or interventional treatments to prevent, delay, or ameliorate sPTB. The repurposed drugs include several Class A and Class B therapeutics that are regarded as safe or low risk in pregnant subjects.
