Nanopaclitaxel
The unique nanoparticulate formulation of the most widely
used anticancer drug, Paclitaxel is under development. Nanopaclitaxel
was formulated to eliminate the safety issues associated with
other approved Paclitaxel preparations, such as Taxol, which
uses various detergents to help the Paclitaxel molecule dissolve
in water. Solubility in water is essential for administering
drugs into the bloodstream. Unfortunately, the detergents
used in other Paclitaxel formulations can be toxic, requiring
patients to receive additional medications to counteract those
toxicities. Nanopaclitaxel overcomes this solubility issue
with unique nanoparticulate drug release- and -delivery system.
Nanopaclitaxel is safer than Taxol, as well as more effective
in treating oncology patients as patients can take larger
doses of Paclitaxel. This is due to the lack of detergents
in the nanoparticulate formulation.
ALL-3
A number of research studies have discovered that epithelial
growth factor receptor Her-2 gene (EGFR Her-2) is not only
a growth factor receptor, but also a networking receptor.
It plays a key role in malignant tumor cell transformation.
ALL-3 is a new chemical entity of EGFR Her-2 inhibitor, selectively
inhibiting Her-2 receptor for the treatment of oncology patients.
