A new drug delivery modality was developed based on drug encapsulation in polymeric
micelles followed by a controlled release at the tumor site triggered by ultrasound focused …

The high toxicity of potent chemotherapeutic drugs like Doxorubicin (Dox) limits the
therapeutic window in which they can be applied. This window can be expanded by …

Systemic delivery of anticancer agents is accompanied by many unwanted side effects that
can be mitigated by encapsulation of antineoplastic agents. However, encapsulation …

During the last decade, nanomedicine has emerged as a new field of medicine that utilises
nanoscale materials for delivery of drugs, genes and imaging agents. The efficiency of drug …
