Rationale for and measurement of liposomal drug delivery with hyperthermia using non-invasive imaging techniques

Abstract: The purpose of this review is to present an overview of the state-of-the-art imaging modalities used to track drug delivery from liposomal formulations into tumors during or after hyperthermia treatment. Liposomes are a drug delivery system comprised of a phospholipid bilayer surrounding an aqueous core and have been shown to accumulate following hyperthermia therapy. Use of contrast-containing liposomes in conjunction with hyperthermia therapy holds great promise to be able to directly measure drug dose conce… Show more

“…These results compare quantitatively well with our model, though we note that uptake in normal liver cells may be considerably different than in cancer cells. New liposomal formulations that include a contrast agent may provide an effective way for more detailed validation, allowing comparison of spatio-temporal release rates during heating [58]. …”

“…The benefits of DTX/heat additive regimen can be leveraged further by encapsulation into low temperature sensitive liposomes (LTSLs) as a means to enhance tumor delivery compared to free drug alone. LTSLs contain a lysolecithin lipid that rapidly melts and allow release of encapsulated doxorubicin upon being heated to mild hyperthermic temperatures (40-42°C) (9,10). This approach has been shown to result in significant reduction in tumor volume and enhance drug delivery in mouse and rabbit tumor models using water-soluble drugs (e.g., Doxorubicin) compared to conventional free drug or non-thermally sensitive liposome therapy (11)(12)(13)(14)(15).…”

“…Positron emission tomography (PET) is a promising non-invasive imaging method to quantify the pharmacokinetics (PK) of radionuclide-labeled particles and drugs in real-time. Using PET, the time-dependent concentration within the blood pool, liver and tumor interstitium can be estimated and PK parameters can be quantified, enabling comparisons in which each subject can serve as its own control1.…”
