Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to methods and compositions for treating pancreatic cancer (e.g., islet cell tumors). In some aspects, adeno-associated virus (AAV) may be used to deliver an interfering RNA that targets thymidylate synthase (TS).

Abstract: The invention pertains to compositions comprising inhibitors of PI3K, AKT and/or mTOR, one or more 4-quinolinemethanols and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. These compositions can contain subtherapeutic amounts of each active ingredient (PI3K, AKT, mTOR, one or more 4-quinolinemethanols and various combinations thereof). The invention also provides a method of treating various forms of cancer, such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, multiple myeloma, hepatocyte carcinoma, brain cancer, lung cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma, colorectal cancer, melanoma and/or pancreatic cancer.

Abstract: The current invention is directed to a class of compounds that inhibit the function of Thymidylate synthase. Thymidylate synthase inhibition was noted to result in inhibition of tumor cell grow and killing of tumor cells. Thymidylate synthase inhibition is, thus, useful for treatment of various types of cancers, including but not limited to, acute lymphoblatic leukemia (ALL), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), acute promyelocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), acute monocytic leukemia (AMOL), hairy cell leukemia, large cell immunoblastic lymphoma, plasmacytoma, multiple myeloma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, leukemia, brain cancer, lung cancer, central nervous system (CNS) cancer, melanoma, renal cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer and breast cancer. The compounds disclosed herein can be used alone or in combination with other cancer treatment regimens (e.g.
