Method for treating cancer with combination therapy
Provided are methods for treating cancer in a patient by administering at least one antibiotic selected from the group consisting of clofazimine, rifabutin and clarithromycin, in combination with an aryladamantane compound. In an embodiment, the aryladamantane compound is [3-(4-chlorophenyl)-adamantane-1-carboxylic acid (pyridin-4-ylmethyl)amide], or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
Methods and compositions for inducing protective immunity against a Marburg virus infection
Compositions, vaccines and methods using adenovirus vectors for priming and boosting vaccinations for inducing protective immunity against a Marburg virus infection are described.
Methods and compounds for stimulating read-through of premature termination codons
The present disclosure provides compositions and methods for treating and/preventing diseases and conditions associated with premature termination mutations.
