Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0245720A1] This invention provides a method for treating a cancer subject comprising administering to the subject a combination of ATP-depleting agents at concentrations which deplete the ATP level to at least 15 % of normal in cancer cells, a pyrimidine antagonist, and an anticancer agent to which the treated cancer is sensitive. This invention also provides a composition comprising a combination of ATP-depleting agents at concentrations which deplete the ATP level to at least 15 % of normal in cancer cells, a pyrimidine antagonist, and an anticancer agent to which the treated cancer is sensitive. Finally this invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising the above composition or a combination thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
