Cancer Chemotherapy Options
The current two leading targets for silicasome-encapsulated cancer therapeutic molecules are:
- Pancreatic Cancer
- Colon Cancer
As seen in the images, Irinotecan carried by Silicasomes™ (Ir-LB-MSNP) reduced tumor metastasis significantly compared to administering the drug by itself (Free IRIN), and compared to the drug delivered in liposomes (Ir-liposome) in an animal model.
Silicasome Drug Encapsulation Techniques
Shown below are a few techniques in which we can use Silicasomes for encapsulated delivery therapy.
