A compound of general formula (1) ##STR00001## [wherein: R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which are the same or different, each represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower cycloalkyl group, a lower alkanoyl group, a halogen substituted lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a halogen substituted lower alkoxy group, a cyano group, a cross-linked methylenedioxy group, an ethylenedioxy group, a propylenedioxy group, a lower alkylthio group, a lower alkylsulfonyl group, a carboxyl group, a lower alkoxycarbonyl group, a lower alkylamide group, a lower alkylamino alkylene amide group, an amino group, an alkylamino group, a hydroxy group, a functional group represented by general formula (2), or a functional group represented by general formula (3)
—CONH(CH.sub.2).sub.p—R.sub.3  (2) [wherein R.sub.3 represents a di-lower alkylamino group, a morpholino group, a piperidino group, a 2-methyl-piperidino group, or a 2-oxo-pyrrolidinyl group; p represents an integer from 2 to 6]; ##STR00002## [wherein, R.sub.4 represents a lower alkyl group]; m and n each represent an integer from 0 to 3; the term lower represents a carbon number of 1 to 6; and the halogen atom represents a fluorine, chlorine or bromine atom] can inhibit endoplasmic reticulum stress to a greater extent as compared to known chemical chaperones. The compound thus can be used suitably as an agent for preventing, ameliorating or treating various diseases that are caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress.

The present invention relates to therapeutic combinations and methods for treating cancers using combination therapy.

The invention relates to selective small molecule human constitutive androstane receptor (hCAR) activators of Formula (I) or (II), pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and use thereof for the treatment of hematologic malignancies and other cancers. The small molecule hCAR activator in combination with CPA based chemotherapy regimen provides a synergistic effect to help promote cytoxicity of the cyclophosphamide (CPA) based anticancer treatments including CHOP regimen (CPA, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) by preferential induction of CYP2B6 over CYP3A4 and promoting the formation of therapeutically active CPA metabolite 4-OH-CPA.
