Nanoparticles of biodegradable polymers for new-concept chemotherapy

Feng, Si-Shen·2004·Expert Review of Medical Devices

Abstract

The current regimen of chemotherapy is far from satisfactory--its efficiency is limited and patients suffer from serious side effects. Various drug delivery devices have been under intensive investigation in the past few decades in attempts to develop controlled and targeted methods of chemotherapy administration. This article reviews the latest developments in nanoparticles of biodegradable polymers for chemotherapy of cancer and other diseases such as cardiovascular restenosis. The preliminary results obtained in the author's laboratory are used to demonstrate the concept. This review is written with the belief that engineering, in particular, chemical engineering principles, can be applied and further developed to solve the problems in the current practice of chemotherapy and promote a new concept of chemotherapy - chemotherapy at home.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
