Multipoint Costriking Nanodevice Eliminates Primary Tumor Cells and Associated-Circulating Tumor Cells for Enhancing Metastasis Inhibition and Therapeutic Effect on HCC.

Eliminating primary tumor ("roots") and inhibiting associated-circulating tumor cells (associated-CTCs, "seeds") are vital issues that need to be urgently addressed in cancer therapy. Associated-CTCs, which include single CTCs, CTC clusters, and CTC-neutrophil clusters, are essential executors in metastasis and the cause of metastasis-related death in cancer patients. Herein, a "roots and seeds" multipoint costriking nanodevice (GV-Lipo/sorafenib (SF)/digitoxin (DT)) is developed to eliminate primary tumors and inhibit the spread of associated-CTCs for enhancing metastasis inhibition and the therapeutic effect on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Charge and Size Dual Switchable Nanocage for Novel Triple-Interlocked Combination Therapy Pattern.

Combination therapy is a current hot topic in cancer treatment. Multiple synergistic effects elicited by combined drugs are essential in improving antitumor activity. Herein, a pH-triggered charge and size dual switchable nanocage co-loaded with abemaciclib and IMD-0354 (PA/PI-ND) is reported, exhibiting a novel triple-interlocked combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and chemoimmunotherapy.

Simple weak-acid derivatives of paclitaxel for remote loading into liposomes and improved therapeutic effects.

Liposomes are among the most successful nanocarriers; several products have been marketed, all of which were prepared by active loading methods. However, poorly water-soluble drugs without ionizable groups are usually incorporated into the lipid bi-layer of liposomes by passive loading methods, with serious drug leakage during blood circulation. Furthermore, there have been few improvements in their anti-cancer activity and safety.

A novel approach using Neuron 6F guiding catheter for the embolization of intracranial aneurysm with coiling of the parent internal carotid artery.

To describe our initial experience and early outcomes with distal placement of the Neuron 6F guiding catheter through coiled ICA for aneurysmal EVT. We examined the utility of the Neuronf 70 6F guiding catheter for the embolization procedure in such cases, fourteen cases of aneurysm with coiling of the parent ICA are presented via traditional guiding catheters. With the support of 8F ENVOY guiding catheter as a shuttle sheath, the Neuron(TM) 70 6F guiding catheter was successfully placed through coiled extracranial ICA, so the mirocatheter could be delivered to a more strategic position for embolization of the aneurysm.
