Abstract

Certain embodiments are directed to compositions comprising and method for producing alginate microspheres that contain liposomes encapsulating a variety of useful substances. Substances of note that can be encapsulated in liposomes and loaded into alginate microspheres include radiotherapeutics (e.g., rhenium-188), radiolabels (e.g., technetium-99m), chemotherapeutics (doxorubicin), magnetic particles (e.g., 10 m iron nanoparticles), and radio-opaque material (e.g., iodine contrast).

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 851,915, filed May 23, 2019, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [0003] Statement Regarding Federally Funded Research [0004] none. Background technique [0005] Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer. It is the sixth most common type of cancer and the third most common cause of cancer death. HCC is particularly aggressive and has a low survival rate (five-year survival <5%), thus remaining an important public health problem globally (Global Data Intelligence Center-Pharma, URLpharma.globaldata.com / HomePage, 2019). HCC most often occurs in livers showing cirrhosis or scarring of the liver, which can be caused by a variety of factors, including hepatitis B infection, hepatitis C infection, chronic alcohol abuse, and common fungi that can grow on certain crops, such as corn ...
