Specific drug delivery to tumor cells without affecting normal cells is a major challenge in cancer treatment. The present invention incorporates embedding nonionic surfactant vesicles (niosomes) containing an anti-cancer therapeutic agent with chlorotoxin into a thermosensitive chitosan hydrogel network. Chitosan has mucoadhesive property which can be used in the targeting of the tumor cells with the mucin over expression. Chlorotoxin is a 36 amino acid peptide obtained from Leiurus quinquestriatus scorpion venom which binds preferentially to tumor cells of neuroectodermal origin but not to normal cells. The incorporation of chlorotoxin along with niosomes in the chitosan hydrogel is used as the second targeting strategy to further improve the specific delivery of drugs to tumor cells such as glioma.

The present invention is directed to recombinant human antibodies specific for Cn2 toxin from C. noxius scorpion venom. The antibodies are able to recognize the toxin and preferably neutralize it as well as the whole venom of C. noxius scorpion. This invention is also directed to a human non-immune phage display library. One clone that specifically binds the Cn2 toxin was affinity matured by directed evolution. Three cycles of maturation were performed and several scFv clones were isolated which specifically recognize toxin Cn2 with increased K_d of 446 fold. All variants were monomeric and only variants 6009F, 6105F and 6103E showed to be capable of neutralizing toxin Cn2 and the whole venom. Variant 6009F recognizes a different epitope than that of BCF2, a murine monoclonal antibody raised against scorpion toxin Cn2 which is also capable of neutralizing both Cn2 toxin and the whole venom when tested in mice, as well as that of commercially available polyclonal antibody fragments antivenom from horse. The scFv 6009F is the first reported recombinant human antibody fragment capable of neutralizing a scorpion venom. These results pave the way for the generation of safer autologous recombinant neutralizing antivenom against scorpion stings. The antibodies of the present invention can be used as part of a composition to treat those in need of treatment including those already stung by one or more scorpions, particularly C. noxius scorpions.
