Targeting the tumor vasculature with TEM8-specific T cells
Background T cell immunotherapy with genetically modified T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown promise in preclinical models as well as early clinical studies. However, patients with solid tumors often do not respond as well as patients with hematological malignancies. This lack of efficacy for solid tumors is most likely due to several factors including a) emergence o...
متن کاملMagnetic Graphene Oxide Nanocarrier as a drug delivery vehicle for MRI monitored magnetic targeting of rat brain tumors
Introduction: Glioblastoma multiform is the most common malignant brain tumor, with an invasive nature. Despite the development of conventional therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, because of high recurrence rates, the prognosis remains very poor. Over the last decade, nanotechnology has represented an innovative method as nanoparticle-based drug delivery ...
متن کاملOpen challenges in magnetic drug targeting - onlineLibraryTPS.asp
The principle of magnetic drug targeting, wherein therapy is attached to magnetically responsive carriers and magnetic fields are used to direct that therapy to disease locations, has been around for nearly two decades. Yet our ability to safely and effectively direct therapy to where it needs to go, for instance to deep tissue targets, remains limited. To date, magnetic targeting methods have ...
متن کاملLocoregional cancer treatment with magnetic drug targeting.
The specific delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to their desired targets with a minimum of systemic side effects is an important, ongoing challenge of chemotherapy. One approach, developed in the past to address this problem, is the i.v. injection of magnetic particles [ferrofluids (FFs)] bound to anticancer agents that are then concentrated in the desired area (e.g., the tumor) by an external...
متن کاملOptical coherence tomography of the intracranial vasculature and Wingspan stent in a patient.
A 67-year-old man with medically refractory vertebrobasilar insufficiency and short segment occlusions of the intracranial vertebral arteries was treated with angioplasty and stent placement. Fifteen hours after the procedure the patient developed symptoms of posterior fossa ischemia and repeat angiography showed thrombus formation within the stent which was treated with thrombolytic and aggres...
