Abstract
Talidox (TLD) is an innovative liposomal doxorubicin formulation designed to enhance drug delivery efficiency and reduce systemic toxicity over existing liposomal doxorubicin formulations. This publication consolidates 10 years of preclinical research on TLD, integrating physicochemical characterization, and in vitro and in vivo efficacy. TLD has a reduced particle size and optimized drug-to-lipid ratio compared to Caelyx, aiming to improve tumor penetration and uptake and therefore therapeutic efficacy. The preclinical studies in breast cancer and soft tissue sarcoma models highlight the improved efficacy of TLD over free doxorubicin combined with a very good safety profile. This is complemented by the already published favorable risk-benefit ratio of TLD found in clinical trials.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes research articles, review articles and scientific commentaries on all aspects of the pharmaceutical sciences with emphasis on conceptual novelty and scientific quality. The Editors welcome articles in this multidisciplinary field, with a focus on topics relevant for drug discovery and development.
More specifically, the Journal publishes reports on medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, drug absorption and metabolism, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, drug delivery (including gene delivery), drug targeting, pharmaceutical technology, pharmaceutical biotechnology and clinical drug evaluation. The journal will typically not give priority to manuscripts focusing primarily on organic synthesis, natural products, adaptation of analytical approaches, or discussions pertaining to drug policy making.
Scientific commentaries and review articles are generally by invitation only or by consent of the Editors. Proceedings of scientific meetings may be published as special issues or supplements to the Journal.
