Journal Article
Štaka, I., Cadete, A., Surikutchi, B. T., Abuzaid, H., Bradshaw, T. D., Alonso, M. J., & Marlow, M. (2019). A novel low molecular weight nanocomposite hydrogel formulation for intra-tumoural delivery of anti-cancer drugs. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 565, 151-161. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.04.070

Herein, an injectable formulation composed of a low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) based hydrogel and drug-loaded polymeric nanocapsules (NCs) is described. The NCs, made of hyaluronic acid and polyglutamic acid and loaded with C14-Gemcitabine (GEM...

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in humans. Topical treatment with imiquimod provides a non-invasive, self-administered treatment with relatively low treatment cost. Despite displaying excellent efficacy, imiquimod is only li... Read More about Insight into imiquimod skin permeation and increased delivery using microneedle pre-treatment.
