Abstract:
Compositions which comprise a liposomal water-soluble camptothecin and optionally a liposomal fluoropyrimidine in combination with a vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor such as cetuximab or an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor such as bevacizumab are useful in achieving enhanced therapeutic effects for the treatment of cancer.
Abstract:
Compositions which comprise liposomes having controlled release of a platinum agent are useful in achieving enhanced therapeutic effects particularly when these drugs are administered in combination with other therapeutic agents.
Abstract:
Provided herein are liposomal compositions comprising a therapeutic agent having a protonatable amino group and a secondary or tertiary amine, and methods for encapsulating such therapeutic agents. In one aspect, the present invention relates to liposomal formulations comprising irinotecan in a triethanolamine solution, and optionally comprising copper gluconate, and methods for preparing the same.
Abstract:
Compositions which comprise delivery vehicles having stably associated therewith a cytidine analog and a platinum agent are useful in achieving enhanced therapeutic effects when combinations of these drugs are administered.
Abstract:
Particulate constructs stabilized by amphiphilic copolymers and comprising at least one active coupled to a hydrophobic moiety provide sustained release of the active in both in vitro and in vivo environments.
Abstract:
Particulate constructs stabilized by amphiphilic copolymers and comprising at least one active coupled to a hydrophobic moiety provide sustained release of the active in both in vitro and in vivo environments.
Abstract:
Liposomes that contain at least 10 mol % of a negatively charged lipid coupled to an non-zwitterionic moiety are stable in the blood. Liposomes containing at least 1 mol % of such lipids may be frozen safely.
Abstract:
Provided herein are methods for treating cancer by administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a fixed, non-antagonistic molar ratio of cytarabine and an anthracycline. Such methods are particularly useful in the treatment of patients with advanced hematologic cancers or proliferative disorders.
Abstract:
Implants comprising controlled delivery matrices, associated with, or including medical devices, having stably and releasably associated therewith predetermined non- antagonistic combinations of two or more therapeutic agents provide control of the ratio of these agents at a localized site. Methods of identifying such combinations are also disclosed.
