Supramolecular hydrogels enable co-delivery of chemotherapeutics with synergistic efficacy against patient-derived glioblastoma cells and spheroids (2024)
Journal Article
Cavanagh, R. J., Baquain, S., Alexander, C., Scherman, O. A., & Rahman, R. (2024). Supramolecular hydrogels enable co-delivery of chemotherapeutics with synergistic efficacy against patient-derived glioblastoma cells and spheroids. RSC Advances, https://doi.org/10.1039/D4PM00177J

Drug combinations have been shown to be highly effective in many cancer therapies but the ratios of the individual drugs must be adjusted carefully and formulated appropriately to ensure synergistic action. Here we assessed combinations of doxorubici...
