Methods for reducing radiation therapy induced toxicity, e.g., mucositis, in a subject are provided. Aspects of the methods include administering an effective amount of a radiation toxicity-reducing adjuvant to the subject. In certain embodiments, the radiation toxicity-reducing adjuvant is a 2,2'-anhydropyrimidine, or a derivative thereof. Also provided are compositions for use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and compositions find use in a variety of different applications, including the treatment of a variety of different disease conditions.

Methods and compositions for reducing radiation induced toxicity

RAS modulating compounds and methods of using the same are provided. The compounds find use in modulating the activity of a target RAS in a sample. The target RAS can be a mutant RAS that is implicated in a disease of interest. In some cases, the subject compounds can inhibit the growth of cancer cells whose progression is driven by kRAS or a mutated kRAS. Methods of treating a subject for a RAS driven disease including administering a therapeutically effective amount of the subject compound are provided. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions and kits which include the subject compounds.

Modulators of RAS GTPase

Methods for improving the therapeutic effectiveness of uridine administered to prevent and/or reduce various maladies including adverse event from drugs are provided. Aspects of the methods include administering an effective amount of a uridine maximizing adjuvant, e.g., a 2,2'-anhydropyrimidine, or a derivative thereof, to the subject. Also provided are compositions for use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and compositions find use in a variety of different applications, including the treatment of a variety of different disease conditions.

Methods and compositions for maximizing the prevention and/or reduction of various maladies and drug side-effects using uridine

The present invention relates to compositions, formulations, and methods for treating pulmonary disorders having fibrosis as part of the underlying pathology, such as IPF and ARDS, by administration of a UPase inhibitor, with or without supplemental UR, a UR prodrug, or a UR mimetic to a subject in need thereof.

Uridine phosphorylase inhibitors to treat or prevent pulmonary disease

Methods for treating a subject for mucositis are provided. Aspects of the methods include administering an effective amount of a cancer therapy toxicity-reducing adjuvant in combination with uridine or a prodrug thereof to the subject. In certain embodiments, the cancer therapy toxicity-reducing adjuvant is a 2,2'-anhydropyrimidine, or a derivative thereof. Also provided are compositions for use in practicing the subject methods. The subject methods and compositions find use in a variety of different cancer therapy applications.

Methods of treating a subject for a liver condition, e.g., NAFLD, NASH, and/or DILI, are provided. Aspects of the methods include administering to the subject an effective amount of a UPase inhibitor, optionally in combination with a uridine active agent (e.g., uridine (UR), a UR pro-drug or a UR mimetic), such as supplemental uridine, to treat the subject for the liver condition. Also provided are compositions for use in practicing the subject methods.

Uridine phosphorylase (UPase) inhibitors for treatment of liver conditions

Methods are provided for using methotrexate (MTX) active agents in which reduced host toxicity is observed. Aspects of the methods include administering to a subject an effective amount of an MTX active agent in conjunction with a MTX toxicity-reducing adjuvant, such as a 2,2'-anhydropyrimidine, a derivative thereof or a uridine phosphorylase inhibitor. Also provided are compositions and kits that find use in practicing embodiments of the invention. The methods and compositions find use in a variety of applications, including the treatment of a variety of different disease conditions.

Methotrexate adjuvants to reduce toxicity and methods for using the same

Methods are provided for using doxorubicin active agents in which reduced host toxicity is observed. Aspects of the methods including administering to a subject an effective amount of a doxorubicin active agent in conjunction with a doxorubicin toxicity-reducing adjuvant, e.g., a nitrone compound, or a nitrone compound in combination with a bisdioxopiperazine compound. Also provided are compositions for use in practicing the subject methods. The methods and compositions find use in a variety of different applications, including in the treatment of a variety of different disease conditions.
