Pharmaceutical compositions comprising 3-aminoisoxazolopyridine compounds of the Formula I having IDO1 and/or TDO inhibitory activity are described, where W is CR1, N or N-oxide; X is CR2, N or N-oxide; Y is CR3, N or N-oxide; Z is CR4, N or N-oxide; and at least one of W, X, Y, and Z is N or N-oxide; and R9 and R10 are as defined. Also described are methods of using such compounds in the treatment of various conditions, such as cancer. 

Inhibitors of tryptophan dioxygenases (IDO1 and TDO) and their use in therapy

The present invention relates to the use of compounds such as compounds of the xanthenone acetic acid class such as 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) for the treatment of cancer, wherein the compounds are administered gastrointestinally, preferably orally. More particularly, the invention is concerned with the use of such compounds, wherein the compound is delivered to the site of action in the patient to be treated in two or more doses.

Anti-cancer composition comprising DMXAA or related compound

Methods and compositions are provided for treating cancer, the methods including the step administering, either sequentially or simultaneously, (i) a compound of the xanthenone acetic acid group of compounds, and (ii) at least one compound selected from compounds which modulate TNF production and compounds which act on biochemical pathways leading to TNF synthesis. Compositions include a combination of (i) and (ii) above, together with acceptable pharmaceutical carriers and/or vehicles.

Cancer treatment by combination therapy

The present invention relates to synergistic combinations of the compounds of formula I such as compounds of the xanthenone acetic acid class such as 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) and NSAIDs, in particular diclofenac, which have anti-tumor activity. More particularly, the invention is concerned with the use of such combinations in the treatment of cancer and pharmaceutical compositions containing said combinations.
