Journal ArticleDOI
Current Trends and Challenges in the Clinical Translation of Nanoparticulate Nanomedicines: Pathways for Translational Development and Commercialization
Susan Hua,Maria B.C. de Matos,Josbert M. Metselaar,Josbert M. Metselaar,Gert Storm,Gert Storm,Gert Storm +6 more
TL;DR: Key issues related to the clinical development of NNMs will be covered, including biological challenges, large-scale manufacturing, biocompatibility and safety, intellectual property (IP), government regulations, and overall cost-effectiveness in comparison to current therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete remission of experimental arthritis by joint targeting of glucocorticoids with long-circulating liposomes
Josbert M. Metselaar,Marca H. M. Wauben,Josée P A Wagenaar-Hilbers,Otto C. Boerman,Gert Storm +4 more
TL;DR: Evidence was found that preferential glucocorticoid delivery to the inflamed joint was the key factor explaining the observed strong therapeutic benefit obtained with the liposomal preparation, while other possible mechanisms, such as splenic accumulation or prolonged release of prednisolone in the circulation, were excluded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving solubility and chemical stability of natural compounds for medicinal use by incorporation into liposomes.
Maria Coimbra,Benedetta Isacchi,Louis van Bloois,Javier Sastre Toraño,Aldo Ket,Xiaojie Wu,Femke Broere,Josbert M. Metselaar,Cristianne J.F. Rijcken,Gert Storm,Rita Bilia,Raymond M. Schiffelers +11 more
TL;DR: Despite the instability of liposome-association of 3-oxo-C(12)-homoserine lactone and resveratrol, intravenous administration of these compounds inhibited tumor growth for approximately 70% in a murine tumor model, showing that simple solubilization can have important therapeutic benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drug targeting by long-circulating liposomal glucocorticosteroids increases therapeutic efficacy in a model of multiple sclerosis.
TL;DR: PL is a highly effective drug in treatment of EAE, and is superior to a 5-fold higher dose of free MP, possibly by means of drug targeting, and may have implications for future therapy of autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of complement activation in hypersensitivity reactions to doxil and hynic PEG liposomes: experimental and clinical studies.
Janos Szebeni,Lajos Baranyi,Sandor Savay,Janos Milosevits,Rolf Bünger,Peter Laverman,Josbert M. Metselaar,Gert Storm,A.A. Chanan-Khan,L. Liebes,Franco M. Muggia,Rivka Cohen,Y. Barenholz,Carl R. Alving +13 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that liposome-induced HSRs in susceptible individuals may be due to C activation, which, in turn, is due to the presence of negatively charged PEG-PE in these vesicles.
