SYNERGISTIC LIPOSOMAL FORMULATION FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER

摘要

The present disclosure relates to the synergistic liposomal formulation comprising, phophatidylcholine, stearylamine and anticancer drugs for the treatment of cancer. The PC:SA cationic liposome encapsulated camptothecin (CPT) and doxorubicin (DOX) formulations show enhanced synergistic anti-cancer effect and provide improved therapeutic index as compared to either the liposome or drug alone. The present disclosure also relates to the use of Cationic liposomal preparation of phosphatidylcholine:stearylamine (PC:SA) showing anticancer effect. The SA-bearing liposome and drug entrapped in the liposome are effective against cancer both in vitro and in vivo, without causing any adverse effect on host.
