Abstract:
Nanoparticulate formulations for delivery of taxane conjugate prodrug formed from a taxane coupled to a hydrophobic moiety through a glycolate linker are described.
Abstract:
Nanopaiticle compositions described herein comprise combinations of prodrugs of therapeutic agents that achieve enhanced therapeutic effects as compared to those observed when combinations of free forms of these therapeutic agents are administered.
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:
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:
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:
Provided herein are methods for treating cancer by administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a fixed, non-antagonistic molar ratio of irinotecan and floxuridine. Such methods are particularly useful in the treatment of cancer patients with advanced solid tumors.
Abstract:
Diagnostic methods for identifying cancer bearing subjects appropriate for treatment with CPX-351 include genetic and ex vivo testing of cells from a candidate subject. Combination treatment with CPX-351 and FLT-3 inhibitors improve CPX-351 uptake and toxicity.
Abstract:
Lyophilized liposomal formulations with two or more encapsulated drugs are disclosed. These formulations display superior drug retention profiles and also maintain size distribution following lyophilization and reconstitution.
