Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 .- 14 . (canceled) 
     
     
         15 . A method of treating cancerous tumors in a mammal, said method comprising administering a composition comprising (a) aprepitant and (b) oxaliplatin or carboplatin, wherein the dose of aprepitant administered is between 5 and 120 mg/kg of weight per day, wherein the cancerous tumors are selected from the list consisting of lung cancer, glioma, fibrosarcoma, lymphoma, melanoma, and neuroblastoma. 
     
     
         16 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the dose of aprepitant administered is between 8 and 100 mg/kg of weight per day. 
     
     
         17 . The method according to  claim 16 , wherein the dose of aprepitant administered is between 10 and 80 mg/kg of weight per day. 
     
     
         18 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the dose of aprepitant administered is between 35 and 120 mg/kg of weight per day. 
     
     
         19 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the composition further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 
     
     
         20 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the cancerous tumors present with alteration of the peritumoral environment. 
     
     
         21 . The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the cancerous tumors that present with peritumoral alteration show an increased synthesis of the markers selected from the group consisting of: NF-kB, EGF, VEGF, TNF-α, TGF-α, TGF-β 1, TGF-β 2, TGF-β 3, SPARC, MMP-3; MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-11, MMP-13, MMP-14, and combinations thereof.
