<p>A first aspect of the invention relates to a combination comprising 2′-cyano-2′-deoxy-N4-palmitoyl-1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-cytosine, or a metabolite thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a cytotoxic agent selected from: (a) a HDAC inhibitor; and (b) a topoisomerase inhibitor selected from etoposide, topotecan and SN-38, or a prodrug thereof. A second aspect relates to a pharmaceutical product comprising (i) 2′-cyano-2′-deoxy-N4-palmitoyl-1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-cytosine, or a metabolite thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (ii) a cytotoxic agent selected from: (a) a HDAC inhibitor; and (b) a topoisomerase inhibitor selected from etoposide, topotecan and SN-38, or a prodrug thereof, as a combined preparation for simultaneous, sequential or separate use in therapy. A third aspect relates to a method of treating a proliferative disorder, said method comprising simultaneously, separately or sequentially administering to a subject 2′-cyano-2′-deoxy-N4-palmitoyl-1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-cytosine, or a metabolite thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a cytotoxic agent selected from: (a) a HDAC inhibitor; and (b) a topoisomerase inhibitor selected from etoposide, topotecan and SN-38, or a prodrug thereof. A fourth aspect of the invention relates to the use of a subject 2′-cyano-2′-deoxy-N4-palmitoyl-1-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-cytosine, or a metabolite thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in the preparation of a medicament for treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).</p> |
