Masitinib, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, for use in the treatment of progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) in a patient who has a time from diagnosis to treatment initiation with masitinib, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, greater than 2 years and/or has a time from onset to treatment initiation with masitinib, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, greater than 5 years. In particular, masitinib, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, is for use in the treatment of primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) or non-active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (non-active SPMS) in a patient who has a time from diagnosis to treatment initiation with masitinib, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, greater than 2 years and/or has a time from onset to treatment initiation with masitinib, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, greater than 5 years.

Polymeric reagents are provided comprising a moiety of atoms arranged in a specific order, wherein the moiety is positioned between a water-soluble polymer and a reactive group. The polymeric reagents are useful for, among other things, forming polymer-active agent conjugates. Related methods, compositions, preparations, and so forth are also provided.

The present invention relates to a composition for treating or sensitizing interferon beta resistant cancer disease comprising cFLIP siRNA, and, more specifically, to a pharmaceutical composition for treating interferon beta resistant cancer disease, comprising, as an active ingredient: (a) an siRNA complementarily binding to mRNA of a cFLIP gene; and (b) a human interferon beta variant which comprises glycine-asparagine-isoleucine-treonine-valine sequence (GNITV) at C-terminus in a human natural interferon beta amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, or has replaced the 27.sup.th arginine amino acid with threonine or serine, and to a composition for sensitizing interferon beta resistant cancer cells comprising cFLIP siRNA as an active ingredient. The composition of the present invention can be effectively used to develop an anticancer agent or anticancer adjuvant having a new mechanism to promote apoptosis and effectively sensitize cells for treatment, by lowering an expression level of cFLIP proteins in a cancer showing resistance to interferon beta or a cancer becoming resistant to interferon beta.
