The use of dianhydrogalactitol provides a novel therapeutic modality for the treatment of malignancies of the central nervous system in pediatric patients, including glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) high grade glioma, and medulloblastoma. Dianhydrogalactitol acts as an alkylating agent on DNA that creates N

methylation and that can induce double-stranded breaks in DNA. Dianhydrogalactitol is effective in suppressing the growth of cancer stem cells and is active against tumors that are refractory to temozolomide, cisplatin, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors; the drug acts independently of the MGMT repair mechanism. Dianhydrogalactitol can be used together with other anti-neoplastic agents (e.g. cisplatin) and can possess additive or super-additive effects.

The use of dianhydrogalactitol provides a novel therapeutic modality for the treatment of glioblastoma, non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and ovarian cancer, as well as other types of malignancy, including brain metastases of NSCLC. Dianhydrogalactitol acts as an alkylating agent on DNA that creates N7 methylation and inter-strand crosslinks that can induce double-stranded breaks in DNA. Dianhydrogalactitol is effective in suppressing the growth of cancer stem cells and is active against tumors that are refractory to temozolomide, cisplatin, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors; the drug acts independently of the MGMT repair mechanism. Dianhydrogalactitol can be used together with other anti-neoplastic agents and can possess additive or synergistic effects. Dianhydrogalactitol can be used for treatment of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis.

Quantitative structure-activity relationships of N2-phenylguanines as inhibitors of Herpes simplex virus thymidine kinases
(HSV2) were used to develop equations using hydrophobic (pi), electronic (sigma, R), and group size (MR) parameters. Equations 1 and 2 with correlation coefficients of 0.797 and 0.805, respectively, were obtained for inhibitors of the types 1 and 2 enzymes. Potencies were correlated positively with pi values of meta substituents but negatively with pi values of para substituents in the phenyl ring. Positive
