In vitro experiments towards a mathematical model of solid tumour treatment by thermosensitive liposomes

Abstract:

Thermosensitive Liposomes (TSLs) are at a crossroads as a delivery platform. Recent attempts at clinical translation have had mixed outcomes. The HEAT and OPTIMA trials, using TSL doxorubicin and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) as a heating modality did not demonstrate improved outcomes compared to RFA alone. In contrast, the TARDOX trial demonstrated for the first time that the delivery of TSL doxorubicin with localised ultrasound-mediated mild hyperthermia of a deep-seated tumour was safe ...
