A combination of one or more HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (for example pravastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin, fluvastatin, rivastatin or atorvastatin) with one or more insulin sensitizers (for example troglitazone, pioglitazone, englitazone, BRL-49653, 5-(4-{2-?1-(4-2'-pyridylphenyl)ethylideneaminooxy!-ethoxy}benzyl)thiazolidine-2,4-dione, 5-{4-(5-methoxy-3-methylimidazo?5,4-b!pyridin-2-yl-methoxy)benzyl}thiazolidine-2,4-dione or its hydrochloride, 5-?4-(6-methoxy-l-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethoxy)benzyl!thiazolidine-2,4-dione, 5-?4-(l-methylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethoxy)benzyl!-thiazolidine-2,4-dione and 5-?4-(5-hydroxy-1,4,6,7-tetramethylbenzimidazol-2-ylmethoxy) benzyllthiazolidine-2,4-dione) exhibits a synergistic effect and is significantly better at preventing and/or treating arteriosclerosis and/or xanthoma than is either of the components of the combination alone.

The present invention provides an antiproliferative p-heteroatom-substituted phenol compound having the structure formula STR1 wherein m is 0 to 3, n is 0 to 4 when Het is nitrogen, wherein R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, arylmethyl and acyl; R1 is alkyl; R2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl; R3 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl and acyl when Het is nitrogen, R4 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl; R5 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl; and R6 and R7 are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl and R6 and R7 together may represent oxygen. Also provided are various methods for the treatment of a pathological cell proliferative disease comprising administering to an animal) a pharmacologically and therapeutically effective dose of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a p-heteroatom-substituted phenols or an analog thereof.
