Abstract: Methods of treating cancer using antisense oligonucleotides directed against DNA double-strand break repair proteins such as BRCA2 or RAD51 are provided. The antisense oligonucleotides can he used alone, in tandem or in combination with other cancer therapies, in particular with therapies that lead to DNA damage, inhibition of DNA repair or inhibition of DNA synthesis, such as radiation, platinum drugs, alkylating agents, PARP inhibitors, or inhibitors of thymidylate synthase.

Abstract: Effective combinations of antisense agents directed against thymidylate synthase mRNA are provided for use in cancer therapies. Combinations of antisense agents have enhanced activity compared to the activity of the individual antisense agents when used alone. The combinations may be used in conjunction with one or more chemotherapeutic agents to enhance the effects of the chemotherapeutic(s). Such antisense agent combinations constitute improved antisense therapies with application to a variety of cancers or proliferative disorders, including drug resistant cancers.
