Index of Slides : Graphic Version 800x600
- Nanoparticle albumin bound (nab) technology :
A nanotechnology platform for biologically interactive drug delivery and targeting
- Nanoparticle Albumin-bound (nab) platform technology
- Abraxane (nab-paclitaxel) is a solvent-free ‘nano’ version of Taxol (cremophor-based paclitaxel)
- Abraxane approved by FDA with about twice the response rate of Taxol in metastatic breast cancer
- A key aspect of nanoparticle stability of nab-paclitaxel is size and zeta potential
- Nanoparticle Release of nab-paclitaxel in simulated plasma measured by Laser Light Scattering
- Nab-platform utilizes endogenous albumin pathways of endothelial transcytosis (gp60) and intratumoral binding of SPARC
- Rapid Tumor Accumulation of nab-paclitaxel in tumor
- Comparing ‘nano’ paclitaxel vs standard paclitaxel
- Definitions of Nanotechnology adopted by FDA
- Nanotechnology / drug-delivery literature review: Is the 100 nm cutoff appropriate? Search: Pubmed/Internet [keywords: nanoparticle AND size AND drug AND delivery]
- Meeting current definitions of Nanotechnology :
Other nab products in development
- Recommendations for revising current definitions of size range/function for nanotechnology drug products
