Abstract: This document provides methods and materials involved in assessing chemotherapy responsiveness and treating cancer (e.g., breast cancer). For example, methods and materials for determining whether or not a cancer patient (e.g., a breast cancer patient) is likely to respond to chemotherapy (e.g., a taxane therapy) based at least in part on the presence of a variant in the mammal's polycystic kidney disease gene 1 (PKD1) are provided. In addition, methods and materials involved in treating mammals having cancer (e.g., breast cancer) by administering an inhibitor of ubiquitin specific peptidase 2 (USP2) polypeptide activity (e.g., NSC-632839, a 2-cyano-pyrimidine, or a 2-cyano-triazine) in combination with another chemotherapeutic agent such as a taxane therapy are provided.

Abstract: Formulations for oral transmucosal compositions including a synergistic combination of low doses of testosterone with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) that are combined with transmucosal absorption enhancers are disclosed. Oral transmucosal compositions can be for fast release or slow release, and can be administered to increase bloodstream testosterone levels and thereby reduce symptoms of testosterone deficiency. Oral transmucosal compositions include liquid dosage forms, solid dosage forms, and chewing gums. Further dosage forms include mucoadhesive thin strips, thin films, tablets, patches, and tapes, among others. Other dosage forms are: mucoadhesive liquids such as gel-forming liquids; gel-forming semisolids; and gel-forming powders, among other dosage forms that exhibit mucoadhesive properties, and provide oral transmucosal delivery of testosterone and AI.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention is to improve the safety and efficacy of the administration of GHB or a salt thereof to a patient. It has been discovered that the concomitant administration of an MCT inhibitor, such as diclofenac, valproate, or ibuprofen, will affect GHB administration. For example, it has been discovered that diclofenac lowers the effect of GHB in the body, thereby potentially causing an unsafe condition. Furthermore, it has been discovered that valproate increases the effect of GHB on the body, thereby potentially causing an unsafe condition.
