The present invention relates to compositions and methods for cancer treatment comprising compounds of Formulae I, II, and III. In some aspects, the invention relates to the treatment of B-cell Lymphoma or other hematopoietic cancers. In other aspects, the invention provides methods for treating particular types of hematopoietic cancers, such as, for example, B-cell lymphoma, using a combination of one or more compounds of Formulae I, II, and III. Combination therapy with, for example, 26S proteasome inhibitors, such as, for example, Bortezomib, are also included. In another aspect the present invention relates to autoimmune treatment with compounds of Formulae I, II, and III. In another aspect, this invention relates to methods for identifying compounds, for example, compounds of the BH3 mimic class, that have in vitro properties that predict in vivo efficacy against B-cell lymphoma tumors and other cancers as well as autoimmune disease. |
