    摘要: A method of treating a mammalian subject having hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: (A) administering to such a mammalian subject a therapeutically effective amount of a halogenated xanthene, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a C1-C4 alkyl ester thereof as a first cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous medium. The mammalian subject is maintained for a period of time sufficient to induce death of hematologic, non-tumorous cancer cells. A contemplated administration is typically repeated. A contemplated treatment method can also be carried out in conjunction with administration to said mammalian subject of a second therapeutically effective amount of a second, differently-acting cancer cytotoxic agent dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable medium. The second cancer cytotoxic agent can be a small molecule or an intact antibody or paratope-containing portion thereof.

    摘要: A method of inducing a Type I interferon response in a mammalian subject that presents with a microbial infection, cancerous tumor or hematological malignancy that comprises administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene as discussed above, effective to induce the Type I interferon response. A method of enhancing a mammalian immunogen-specific immune response that comprises contacting mammalian cells, in vivo or present in a mammalian cell growth supporting medium, with an adjuvant-effective amount of a halogenated xanthene, and an immunogen to which that response is to be enhanced. A mammalian HX compound-adjuvanted vaccine composition that contains an immunogen present in a vaccine-effective amount along with an adjuvant-effective amount of a halogenated xanthene (HX) compound and one or more excipients present at about 0.001% by weight to 10% by weight of the vaccine composition dissolved or dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent.

    摘要: A method for treating a viral infection of a mammalian subject that comprises administering a virus-inhibiting amount of a halogenated xanthene, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, an alkyl ester or amide or aromatic ester or amide derivative thereof as disclosed within, to that mammalian subject. A method of inducing a type I interferon response in a mammalian subject that presents with a microbial infection, cancerous tumor or hematological malignancy that comprises administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene as discussed above, effective to induce the type I interferon response. A method of enhancing a mammalian immunogen-specific immune response that comprises contacting mammalian cells, in vivo or present in a mammalian cell growth supporting medium, with an adjuvant-effective amount of a halogenated xanthene as discussed above, and an immunogen to which that response is to be enhanced.

    摘要: A method of treating a pediatric cancerous solid tumor in a mammalian subject is disclosed that comprises intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor. Another contemplated method comprises the steps of intralesionally administering an amount of a halogenated xanthene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, preferably Rose Bengal disodium, that elicits ablation of tumor cells of the administered tumor and systemically administering a tumor-inhibiting effective amount of a systemic anti-cancer medication that provides synergistic cytotoxicity with the halogenated xanthene. The two administrations can occur concurrently, or one prior to the other.
