Book Nanotheranostics for Cancer Applications

Download or read book Nanotheranostics for Cancer Applications written by Prakash Rai and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to focus specifically on cancer nanotheranostics. Each of the chapters that make up this comprehensive volume is authored by a researcher, clinician, or regulatory agency member known for their expertise in this field. Theranostics, the technology to simultaneously diagnose and treat a disease, is a nascent field that is growing rapidly in this era of personalized medicine. As the need for cost-effective disease diagnosis grows, drug delivery systems that can act as multifunctional carriers for imaging contrast and therapy agents could provide unique breakthroughs in oncology. Nanotechnology has enabled the development of smart theranostic platforms that can concurrently diagnose disease, start primary treatment, monitor response and initiate secondary treatments if required. In oncology, chemotherapeutics have been routinely used. Some drugs have proven effective but all carry risks of adverse side effects. There is growing interest in using remotely triggered drug delivery systems to limit cytotoxicity in the diseased area. This book reviews the use of theranostic nanoparticles for cancer applications over the past decade. First, it briefly discusses the challenges and limitations of conventional cancer treatments, and presents an overview of the use of nanotechnology in treating cancer. These introductory chapters are followed by those exploring cancer diagnosis and a myriad of delivery methods for nanotherapeutics. The book also addresses multifunctional platforms, treatment monitoring, and regulatory considerations. As a whole, the book aims to briefly summarize the development and clinical potential of various nanotheranostics for cancer applications, and to delineate the challenges that must be overcome for successful clinical development and implementation of such cancer theranostics.

Book Engineering of Multifunctional Nanomaterials for Cancer Theranostics

Download or read book Engineering of Multifunctional Nanomaterials for Cancer Theranostics written by Shreya Goel and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development of novel imaging probes for cancer diagnosis is critical for early disease detection and management. The past two decades have witnessed a surge in the development and evolution of radiolabeled nanoparticles as a new frontier in personalized cancer nanomedicine. The dynamic synergism of positron emission tomography (PET) and nanotechnology combines the sensitivity and quantitative nature of PET with the multifunctionality and tunability of nanomaterials, which can help overcome certain key challenges in the field. Silica, "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States, has emerged as one of the leading nanomaterials employed for molecular imaging and therapy of a wide variety of diseases, including cancer. However in vivo biodistribution and active targeting of silica-based nanomaterials has remained a relatively under explored area, based mainly on semi-quantitative techniques such as fluorescence imaging. In this dissertation, I explore the concept of radiolabeled silica nanoparticles for vasculature-targeted imaging of different tumor types. Both chelator-based and chelator-free radiolabeling techniques were employed for accurate and quantitative analysis of the in vivo pharmacokinetics of radiolabeled silica nanomaterials. (Chapters 2 and 3) The large surface area, ease of tunability and facile silica chemistry were employed to create multifunctional silica-based materials to simultaneously seek-and-treat cancers, by incorporating multiple components into a single nanoplatform. Photodynamic agent, porphyrin was loaded into the central cavity of hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and the shell was decorated with photothermal nanoparticles, CuS, yielding a multimodal theranostic nanoplatform which could synergistically annihilate the tumor without relapse. (Chapter 4) A major hurdle in the successful clinical translation of nanomaterials is their rapid sequestration by the organs of the reticuloendothelial system (RES), mainly liver and spleen, and prolonged retention in the body, raising long-term toxicity concerns. To combat this issue, two approaches were employed; (i) Synthesis of biodegradable mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Chapter 5), and (ii) development of ultrasmall nanoparticles including renal clearable Au nanoparticles and hepatically cleared ultrasmall mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Chapter 6); for prolonged blood circulation, enhanced tumor uptake and rapid clearance from the body, enabling unprecedented tumor-to-normal tissue contrast. Overall, the reported studies explore the synergism of molecular imaging and therapy, and nanotechnology. While the application of nanomaterials in the former imparts multifunctionality to the molecular agent, allowing multimodal imaging and synergistic therapeutic regimes to be carried out simultaneously; molecular imaging techniques such as PET, allow accurate measurement of the in vivo pharmacokinetics of the nanomaterials, playing a major role towards their successful clinical translation. Further work will be required to better understand the in vivo biodistribution of both biodegradable and ultrasmall nanomaterials, and further employ them for early and specific detection of cancer, effective treatment and monitoring.

Book Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer using Thermal Therapies

Download or read book Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer using Thermal Therapies written by Citlalli J. Trujillo Romero and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-10-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New research is being conducted in the diagnosis and new treatments of cancer that has high efficacy and are minimally invasiveness. Artificial intelligence, bioimpedance, thermal images and nanomaterials have been used to provide early diagnosis. New treatments based on the generation of microwaves, radiofrequency, or ultrasound have been proposed in the last couple of decades. Although thermotherapies have been shown to be efficient, for them to be considered as a primary treatment, they must overcome some hurdles. One of the main challenges is to ensure applicators that point the electromagnetic or the mechanical waves at a tumor, don't affect the surrounding healthy tissues. In some cases, nanoparticles have also been designed to achieve better focus. The design of new applicators can be made by computational models based on methods such as the finite element. However, to efficiently predict the applicator’s performance, it is important that dielectric, thermal, and acoustic properties (tissue characterization) are included in the models. Not only healthy tissue, but also tumors must be characterized. Patient specific treatment planning, which consists of a 3D patient model based on medical images, can be developed to implement a safety treatment. Moreover, tissue properties as well as the applicator must be defined. Parameters such as temperature increase, and heat pattern must be evaluated to ensure patient safety and treatment success.
