Zusammenfassung:A composition is described comprising a vitamin D analog and a retinoid, wherein: (a) the vitamin D analog is capable of binding a vitamin D receptor or being converted in vivo into a compound capable of binding a vitamin D receptor; and (b) the retinoid is selected from the group consisting of a compound capable of binding a retinoic acid receptor, retinol in a concentration of at least about 0.1% and a compound in a concentration of at least about 0.% capable of being converted in vivo into retinol. Further, methods of treating disorders characterized by abnormal cell-proliferation and/or cell-differentiation are also described.
