Methods for treating proliferative disorders, by administering reovirus to a ral-mediated proliferative disorder, are disclosed. The reovirus is administered so that it ultimately directly contacts target cancer cells. Proliferative disorders include but are not limited to neoplasms. Human reovirus, non-human mammalian reovirus, and / or avian reovirus can be used. If the reovirus is human reovirus, serotype 1 (e.g., strain Lang), serotype 2 (e.g., strain Jones), serotype 3 (e.g., strain Dearing or strain Abney), other serotypes or strains of reovirus, and recombinant reovirus can be used. Combinations of more than one type and / or strain of reovirus can be used, as can reovirus from different species of animal. Either solid neoplasms or hematopoietic neoplasms can be treated.

A liposome composition for localizing an anti-tumor compound to a solid tumor via the bloodstream. The liposomes, which contain the agent in entrapped form, are composed of vesicle-forming lipids and between 1-20 mole percent of a vesicle-forming lipid derivatized with hydrophilic biocompatible polymer, and have sizes in a selected size range between 0.07 and 0.12 microns. After intravenous administration, the liposomes are taken up by the tumor within 24-48 hours, for site-specific release of entrapped compound into the tumor. In one composition for use in treating a solid tumor, the compound is an anthracycline antibiotic drug which is entrapped in the liposomes at a concentration of greater than about 50 mug agent / mumole liposome lipid. The method results in regression of solid colon and breast carcinomas which are refractory to anthracycline antibiotic drugs administered in free form or entrapped in conventional liposomes.

The present invention relates generally to methods for treating cancer. In one respect, the present invention relates to a method of treating a hematological cancer (e.g., multiple myeloma, leukemia, lymphoma) comprising administering to a patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a histone deacetylase inhibitor, for example, a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor as described herein, for example, PXD-101. In another respect, the present invention relates to a method of treating cancer (e.g., solid tumour cancer, e.g., rectal cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, hematological cancer, e.g., multiple myeloma, leukemia, lymphoma) comprising administering to a patient in need thereof, a first amount of a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, for example, a histone deacetylase inhibitor as described herein, for example, PXD-101, and a second amount of another chemotherapeutic agent, for example, another chemotherapeutic agent selected from: an antibody against VEGF, AVASTIN® (bevacizumab), an antibody against CD20, rituximab, bortezomib, thalidomide, dexamethasone, vincristine, doxorubicin, and melphalan, wherein the first and second amounts together comprise a therapeutically effective amount.

The invention discloses an application of a proteasome inhibitor in anti-cancer drugs. The proteasome inhibitor comprises Carfilzomib (carfilzomib), Bortezomib (bortezomib), MLN9708 (ixazomib), MG132and the like. The targeted cancer is a cancer in which macrophage polarization participates, i.e., a tumor in which the macrophage type is mainly M2 type in a tumor microenvironment, including a solidtumor and a hematologic tumor, and also including an in-situ cancer and a transplanted cancer. It is found through a large amount of creative work that the proteasome inhibitor converts M2 type TAM in the tumor immune microenvironment into M1 type TAM, thereby improving the tumor microenvironment, promoting the phagocytic effect of macrophages on tumor cells and increasing infiltration of immunecells on tumors to inhibit tumor growth.
