This invention pertains to certain 4-(1-(sulfonyl)-1H-indol-2-yl)-4-(hydroxy)-cyclohexa-2,5-dienone compounds, and analogs thereof, including compounds of the following formula, which are, inter alia, antiproliferative agents, anticancer agents, and/or thioredoxin/thioredoxin reductase inhibitors: formula (I) wherein: Ar is a 1-(sulfonyl)-1H-indol-2-yl group; the bond marked α is independently: (a) a single bond; or: (b) a double bond; the bond marked β is independently: (a) a single bond; or: (b) a double bond; the group —OR
O
is independently: (a) —OH; (b) an ether group (e.g., —OMe); or: (c) an acyloxy (i.e., reverse ester) group (e.g., —OC(═O)Me); each of R
