Compounds that inhibit HIF-2α, and compositions containing the compound(s) and methods for synthesizing the compounds, are described herein. Also described are the use of such compounds and compositions for the treatment of a diverse array of diseases, disorders, and conditions, including cancer- and immune-related disorders that are mediated, at least in part, by HIF-2α.

The present invention discloses, in one embodiment, a method of using human induced pluripotent stem cells to generate three-dimensional human organ tissue for therapeutic drug toxicity and discovery⋅. In one embodiment, a high throughput microtiter plate is loaded with both wild type and Rett disease 3D spheroids and exposed to a drug library, and activity is measured and analyzed for disease rescue to wild type cell behavior.

A negatively charged glycosaminoglycan is provided for use as a medicament for the treatment of cancer. A combined administration of a negatively charged glycosaminoglycan is provided in which the glycosaminoglycan is characterised by the absence of the terminal pentasaccharide of Heparin, and an inhibitor of the MAPK/ERK pathway. A combined administration of a glycosaminoglycan and a MAPK/ERK pathway inhibitor is provided as a medicament for the treatment of cancer types that exhibit a resistance towards a single MAPK/ERK pathway inhibitor treatment.
