Journal Article
Muresan, P., McCrorie, P., Smith, F., Vasey, C., Taresco, V., Scurr, D. J., …Marlow, M. (2023). Development of nanoparticle loaded microneedles for drug delivery to a brain tumour resection site. European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, 182, 53-61. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejpb.2022.11.016

Systemic drug delivery to the central nervous system (CNS) has been historically impeded by the presence of the blood brain barrier rendering many therapies inefficacious to any cancer cells residing within the brain. Therefore, local drug delivery s... Read More about Development of nanoparticle loaded microneedles for drug delivery to a brain tumour resection site.

Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery (2019)
Journal Article
Breen, A. F., Scurr, D., Cassioli, M. L., Wells, G., Thomas, N. R., Zhang, J., …Bradshaw, T. D. (2019). Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery. International Journal of Nanomedicine, 14, 9525-9534. https://doi.org/10.2147/IJN.S226293

Introduction: Advancment of novel anticancer drugs into clinic is frequently halted by their lack of solubility, reduced stability under physiological conditions, and non-specific uptake by normal tissues, causing systemic toxicity. Their progress to... Read More about Protein Encapsulation of Experimental Anticancer Agents 5F 203 and Phortress: Towards Precision Drug Delivery.

Controlling the release of indomethacin from glass solutions layered with a rate controlling membrane using fluid-bed processing. Part 1: Surface and cross-sectional chemical analysis (2017)
Journal Article
Dereymaker, A., Scurr, D. J., Steer, E. D., Roberts, C. J., & Van den Mooter, G. (2017). Controlling the release of indomethacin from glass solutions layered with a rate controlling membrane using fluid-bed processing. Part 1: Surface and cross-sectional chemical analysis. Molecular Pharmaceutics, 14(4), 959-973. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.6b01023

Fluid bed coating has been shown to be a suitable manufacturing technique to formulate poorly soluble drugs in glass solutions. Layering inert carriers with a drug–polymer mixture enables these beads to be immediately filled into capsules, thus avoid...
