The Photosensitizer Temoporfin (mTHPC) – Chemical, Pre‐clinical and Clinical Developments in the Last Decade^†‡

Photochemistry and Photobiology, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 99(2), С. 356 - 419

Опубликована: Сен. 26, 2022

Abstract This review follows the research, development and clinical applications of photosensitizer 5,10,15,20‐tetra( m ‐hydroxyphenyl)chlorin ( THPC, temoporfin) in photodynamic (cancer) therapy (PDT) other medical applications. Temoporfin is active substance medicinal product Foscan® authorized EU for palliative treatment head neck cancer. Chemistry, biochemistry pharmacology, as well temoporfin are addressed, including extensive work that has been done on formulation liposomal formulations. The literature covered from 2009 to early 2022, thereby connecting it previous this published journal [Senge, M. O. J. C. Brandt (2011) Photochem. Photobiol. 87, 1240–1296] which followed its way initial approval application.

Drug Delivery Systems for Photodynamic Therapy: The Potentiality and Versatility of Electrospun Nanofibers

Macromolecular Bioscience, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 22(5)

Опубликована: Март 5, 2022

Recently, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has become a promising approach for the treatment of broad range diseases, including oncological and infectious diseases. This minimally invasive localized is based on production reactive oxygen species able to destroy cancer cells inactivate pathogens by combining use photosensitizers (PSs), light, molecular oxygen. To overcome drawbacks drug systemic administration, delivery systems (DDS) can be used carrier PSs, allowing higher therapeutic efficacy minimal toxicological effects. Polymeric nanofibers produced electrospinning emerged as powerful platforms applications. Electrospun exhibit outstanding characteristics, such large surface-area-to-volume ratio associated with high loading, porosity, flexibility, ability incorporate release wide variety agents, biocompatibility, biodegradability. Due versatility this technique, fibers different morphologies functionalities, profile produced. The possibility scalability makes even more attractive development DDS. review aims explore show an up date huge potential electrospun DDS PDT applications discuss opportunities challenges in field.
