Development of nanoparticle loaded microneedles for drug delivery to a brain tumour resection site (2022)
Journal Article

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.

Histopathological impact of Redox-responsive methacrylamide based micellar nanoparticles on Orthotopic Models of Triple Negative Breast Cancers (2022)
Journal Article

The therapeutic efficacy of anticancer nanocarriers ishighly dependent on their size, shape, targeting ability, and stimuli-responsiveness. Herein, we studied the in vivo therapeutic efficacy ofDoxorubicin (Dox) loaded redox responsive micellar-like...

Electric field responsive nanotransducers for glioblastoma (2022)
Journal Article

Background Electric field therapies such as Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) have emerged as a bioelectronic treatment for isocitrate dehydrogenase wild-type and IDH mutant grade 4 astrocytoma Glioblastoma (GBM). TTFields rely on alternating curre... Read More about Electric field responsive nanotransducers for glioblastoma.

Lipoprotein Deprivation Reveals a Cholesterol-Dependent Therapeutic Vulnerability in Diffuse Glioma Metabolism (2022)
Journal Article

Poor outcomes associated with diffuse high-grade gliomas occur in both adults and children, despite substantial progress made in the molecular characterisation of the disease. Targeting the metabolic requirements of cancer cells represents an alterna...

Metabolic modeling-based drug repurposing in Glioblastoma (2022)
Journal Article

The manifestation of intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity hinders the development of ubiquitous cancer treatments, thus requiring a tailored therapy for each cancer type. Specifically, the reprogramming of cellular metabolism has been identified as a... Read More about Metabolic modeling-based drug repurposing in Glioblastoma.

EPCT-03. Working together to accelerate the preclinical to clinical translation of drug delivery systems for children’s brain tumours (2022)
Journal Article

Children's brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer in children and young adults. Several techniques, such as intra-cerebrospinal fluid chemotherapy, ultrasound-mediated blood-brain barrier disruption, convection enhanced delivery, polymer deliver... Read More about EPCT-03. Working together to accelerate the preclinical to clinical translation of drug delivery systems for children’s brain tumours.

Detection of Label-Free Drugs within Brain Tissue Using Orbitrap Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry as a Complement to Neuro-Oncological Drug Delivery (2022)
Journal Article

Historically, pre-clinical neuro-oncological drug delivery studies have exhaustively relied upon overall animal survival as an exclusive measure of efficacy. However, with no adopted methodology to both image and quantitate brain parenchyma penetrati...

Genome-Wide Expression and Anti-Proliferative Effects of Electric Field Therapy on Pediatric and Adult Brain Tumors (2022)
Journal Article

The lack of treatment options for high-grade brain tumors has led to searches for alternative therapeutic modalities. Electrical field therapy is one such area. The Optune™ system is an FDA-approved novel device that delivers continuous alternating e...
