Nanoparticle formulation improves doxorubicin efficacy by enhancing host antitumor immunity.

Journal Article J Control Release · January 10, 2018 Strategies that enhance the host antitumor immune response promise to revolutionize cancer therapy. Optimally mobilizing the immune system will likely require a multi-pronged approach to overcome the resistance developed by tumors to therapy. Recently, it ... Full text Link to item Cite

A quantitative study of the intracellular fate of pH-responsive doxorubicin-polypeptide nanoparticles.

Journal Article J Control Release · August 28, 2017 Nanoscale carriers with an acid-labile linker between the carrier and drug are commonly used for drug delivery. However, their efficacy is potentially limited by inefficient linker cleavage, and lysosomal entrapment of drugs. To address these critical issu ... Full text Link to item Cite

One-week glucose control via zero-order release kinetics from an injectable depot of glucagon-like peptide-1 fused to a thermosensitive biopolymer.

Journal Article Nat Biomed Eng · 2017 Stimulation of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) receptor is a useful treatment strategy for type 2 diabetes because of pleiotropic effects, including the regulation of islet hormones and the induction of satiety. However, the native ligand for the GLP1 r ... Full text Link to item Cite

Injectable polypeptide micelles that form radiation crosslinked hydrogels in situ for intratumoral radiotherapy.

Journal Article J Control Release · April 28, 2016 Intratumoral radiation therapy - 'brachytherapy' - is a highly effective treatment for solid tumors, particularly prostate cancer. Current titanium seed implants, however, are permanent and are limited in clinical application to indolent malignancies of lo ... Full text Link to item Cite

Abstract 1809: Next-generation brachytherapy: a preclinical study of a thermally stabilized biopolymer gel for delivering intratumoral radionuclide therapy in a pancreatic tumor mouse model
