Claims
-
A method of treating cancer in a patient, said method comprising administering to said patient:

(ii) BAY-43-9006, in amounts that together are sufficient to treat said patient.
-
A method of treating cancer in a patient, said method comprising administering to said patient:
(i) an antisense IAP nucleobase oligomer comprising 5′-NGCACCCNGGANACCANNN-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 151), wherein “N” is “T” or “U”; and
(ii) BAY-43-9006, in amounts that together are sufficient to treat said patient.

- The method of claim 2, wherein the nucleobase oligomer is an oligonucleotide.
- The method of claim 9, wherein the oligonucleotide comprises at least one modified linkage.
- The method of claim 10, wherein the modified linkage is a phosphorothioate linkage.
- The method of claim 2, wherein the nucleobase oligomer comprises at least one modified sugar moiety.
- The method of claim 12, wherein the modified sugar moiety is a 2′-O-methyl group or a 2′-O-methoxyethyl group.
- The method of claim 2, wherein the nucleobase oligomer comprises at least one modified nucleobase.
- The method of claim 14, wherein the modified nucleobase is 5-methyl cytosine.
- The method of claim 2, wherein the nucleobase oligomer is a chimeric nucleobase oligomer.
- The method of claim 16, wherein the nucleobase oligomer comprises DNA residues linked together by phosphorothioate linkages, the DNA residues flanked on each side by at least one 2′-O-methyl or 2-O-methoxyethyl RNA residue.
- The method of claim 17, wherein the DNA residues are flanked on each side by at least three 2′-O-methyl or 2′-O-methoxyethyl RNA residues.
- The method of claim 18, wherein the DNA residues are flanked on each side by four 2′-O-methyl or 2′-O-methoxyethyl RNA residues.
- The method of claim 17, wherein the RNA residues are linked together by phosphorothioate linkages, and the RNA residues are linked to the DNA residues by phosphorothioate linkages.
- The method of claim 17, wherein the nucleobase oligomer comprises DNA residues linked together by phosphodiester linkages, the DNA residues flanked on each side by at least two 2′-O-methyl or 2′-O-methoxyethyl RNA residues linked together by phosphorothioate linkages.
- The method of claim 21, wherein the DNA residues are flanked on each side by at least three 2′-O-methyl or 2′-O-methoxyethyl RNA residues.
- The method of claim 2, wherein the nucleobase oligomer is a Na19 salt comprising eleven DNA residues flanked on each side by four 2′-O-methyl RNA residues, the nucleobase oligomer consisting of 5′-UGCACCCTGGATACCAUUU-3′ (SEQ ID NO: 151), the residues linked together by phosphorothioate linkages.
- The method of claim 2, further comprising administering to the patient a chemosensitizer.
- The method of claim 2, further comprising administering to the patient a biological response-modifying agent.
- The method of claim 2, comprising administering to the patient a second chemotherapeutic agent.
- A method of enhancing apoptosis of a cell, the method comprising contacting a cell with a composition comprising: (i) an antisense IAP nucleobase oligomer of between eight and thirty nucleobases in length, the nucleobase oligomer consisting of 5′-NGCACCCNGGANACCANNN-3′(SEQ ID NO: 151), wherein “N” is “T” or “U” or at least eight consecutive nucleobases thereof; and (ii) BAY-43-9006, whereby apoptosis is enhanced.
- The method of claim 27, wherein the cell is in vivo.
- The method of claim 27, wherein the cell is ex vivo.
- The method of claim 1, wherein the cancer is hepatoma.
- The method of claim 2, wherein the cancer is hepatoma.
- The method of claim 7, wherein the cancer is hepatoma.
- The method of claim 8, wherein the cancer is hepatoma.
- The method of claim 22, wherein the cancer is hepatoma.
- The method of claim 23, wherein the cancer is hepatoma. said proliferative disease.
