1. Biopharmaceutical Evaluation of Intra-arterial Drug-Delivery Systems for Liver Cancer : Investigations in healthy pigs and liver cancer patients
Sammanfattning : There are currently two types of intra-arterial drug-delivery system (DDS) in clinical use in the palliative treatment of primary liver cancer. The chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) can be formulated into a drug-in-lipiodol emulsion (LIPDOX) or a microparticulate drug-eluting bead system (DEBDOX). LÄS MER
2. Transarterial chemoembolization in primary liver and kidney malignancies
Sammanfattning : Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer, and the most current treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma is transarterial chemoembolization using drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE). The concept of TACE might also technically be applicable to other types of hypervascular cancers such as renal cell carcinoma (RCC). LÄS MER
3. Biopharmaceutical investigations of doxorubicin formulations used in liver cancer treatment : Studies in healthy pigs and liver cancer patients, combined with pharmacokinetic and biopharmaceutical modelling
Sammanfattning : There are currently two types of drug formulation in clinical use in the locoregional treatment of intermediate hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the emulsion LIPDOX, the cytostatic agent doxorubicin (DOX) is dissolved in the aqueous phase, which is emulsified with the oily contrast agent Lipiodol® (LIP). LÄS MER
