The invention relates to combinations of metformin or related biguanides such as phenformin, buformin or proguanil, with particular metformin sensitizing compounds that have the capability to sensitize rapidly proliferating cells to metformin or related biguanides in such a way that combinations cause cell lethality at concentrations where neither metformin alone nor such metformin sensitizing compounds alone exert appreciable cell lethality. The invention further relates to the use of such combinations in the treatment of cancer and for achieving immunosuppression.
