Brigham and Women's Hospital Researchers Demonstrate a More Direct Delivery of Cancer Drugs to Tumors
An interdisciplinary team of researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital () (BWH) and the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology has demonstrated a better way to deliver cancer drugs directly to tumors by using specially engineered nanoparticles that can inhibit a signaling pathway and deliver a higher concentration of medication to the specific area. Details of their work appear on April 20, in an early online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
