摘要

The present invention includes compositions and methods for treatment of prostate cancer which involve the use of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate combined with a retinoid such as all-trans-retinoic acid or paclitaxol, wherein the drugs are administered together, and further wherein the combined use of these agents results in a synergistic effect on prostate tumor cell growth.
