Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of treating a proliferative disease, such as cancer, with bis(thio-hydrazide amides) or a tautomer, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, clathrate, or prodrug thereof, in combination with hyperthermia treatment. Also disclosed are methods of treating a proliferative disease, such as cancer, with bis(thio-hydrazide amides) or a tautomer, pharmaceutically acceptable salt, solvate, clathrate, or prodrug thereof, in combination with radiotherapy.

Abstract: Disclosed are antibodies and antigen-binding fragments that bind to a complementary peptide having an amino acid sequence that is encoded by the complement of a nucleotide sequence encoding thrombin or a portion thereof. Such antibodies and antigen-binding fragments can be agonists or antagonists of thrombin receptor-mediated events. Also disclosed are methods of using the agonist antibodies and antigen-binding fragments of the invention to activate the non-proteolytically activated thrombin receptor (NPAR) in a subject in need of such treatment. In addition, methods of using the antagonist antibodies and antigen-binding fragments of the invention to inhibit activation of the NPAR in a subject in need of such treatment are disclosed.

Abstract: This invention relates the use of glucagon-like peptides such as GLP-1, a GLP-1 analog, or a GLP-1 derivative in methods and compositions for reducing body weight.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel complexes consisting of certain GLP-1 molecules associated with a divalent metal cation that is capable of co-precipitating with a GLP-1 molecule. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using such complexes for enhancing the expression of insulin in B-type islet cells is claimed, as is a method for treating maturity onset diabetes mellitus in mammals, particularly humans.
