Abstract:
The present invention relates to the paclitaxel mixed composition and water-in-oil type emulsion formulation for chemoembolization and preparation method thereof. The combinatory formulation of anticancer drugs can be easily prepared since the emulsion formulation of the present invention can include other hydrophilic or lipophilic drugs.
Abstract:
Oily paclitaxel composition and formulation for chemoembolization and preparation method thereof solubilizing paclitaxel in an oily contrast medium. The composition of the present invention solubilizes paclitaxel and has an advantage of delivering anticancer drug to the target cells by chemoembolization since it is possible to visualize the blood vessel during the chemoembolization process. The present invention also relates to oily paclitaxel composition and formulation additionally comprising chemicals that prevent paclitaxel precipitation for prolonged preservation and the preparation method thereof. Since the composition of the present invention solubilize paclitaxel effectively and can be visualized during chemoembolization, it can be used for TACE to treat hepatoma and other solid tumors.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an anticancer drug-chitosan complex forming self-aggregates and the preparation method thereof. More precisely, the present invention relates to the anticancer drug-chitosan complex forming self-aggregates in aqueous media composed of a hydrophobic anticancer agent and a hydrophilic chitosan, and the preparation method thereof. The anticancer drug-chitosan complex of the present invention not only works selectively against target tumor tissue but also continues to release the medicine over a long period of time. Besides, the anticancer drug-chitosan complex could have greater amount of drug by adding the anticancer drug into self-aggregates, which is generally limited by chemical bond. Therefore, the anticancer drug-chitosan complex of the present invention can be effectively used for the cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a cholanic acid-chitosan complex forming self-aggregates and a preparation method thereof, and more particularly, a cholanic acid-chitosan complex which is composed of hydrophobic cholanic acid and hydrophilic chitosan and forms self-aggregates in an aquatic environment, and a method of preparing the cholanic acid- chitosan complex. The cholanic acid-chitosan complex forms self -aggregates, which prolong the drug release period, enhance the selectivity of the complex for tumor tissue, and greatly increase drug loading content when a drug is incorporated into the self -aggregates, compared to chemical bonding, which limits drug incorporation. Thus, the cholanic acid-chitosan complex is useful for anticancer chemotherapy.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel mucoadhesive composition for solubilization of insoluble drugs; its formulation including pharmaceutical compounds; and the preparation methods thereof wherein said solubilizing composition comprises 4~90% by weight of at least one selected from the monoglycerides and 0.01~90% by weight of at least one oil. The present invention relates to a novel mucoadhesive composition including pharmaceutical compounds; and the preparation methods thereof wherein said solubilizing composition including emulsifiers is composed of 4~90% by weight of at least one selected from the monoglycerides, 0.01~90% by weight, of at least one oil, and 0.01~90% by weight of at least one selected from the emulsifiers. The compositions of the present invention is suitable as drug delivery systems since they exist as mucoadhesive liquid at physiological temperatures even though they exist as liquid or semi-solid at room temperature.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to oil-in-water lipid emulsions composed of non-triglyceride oils and solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) composed of triglyceride or ethyl stearate used as gene transfection agents and drug delivery systems and method for preparing thereof. The present invention also concerns the method of transferring genes or drugs efficiently into cells by using the lipid emulsions and solid lipid nanoparticles. Also the present invention relates to the method of preparing lipid emulsions containing lipophilic or amphiphilic drugs by using squalene or squalane as the core-oil. The present invention also concerns the method of preparing the solid lipid nanoparticles containing lipophilic or amphiphilic drugs by using ethyl stearate as the core-fat.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a paclitaxel composition and the preparation methods thereof for the treatment of bladder cancer wherein said paclitaxel composition comprises 4~90% by weight of at least one selected from the monoglycerides, 0.01~90% by weight of at least one oil, 0.01~90% by weight of at least one emulsifier and 0.01~20% by weight of paclitaxel. The composition of the present invention can treat bladder cancer effectively since the composition solubilizes paclitaxel, does not form aggregates, adsorbs well on the bladder wall and penetrates into the muscle layer of the bladder.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a new use of octylonium bromide as p-glycoprotein inhibitor to increase cellular uptake of drugs. More particularly, the present invention provides octylonium bromide as a p-glycoprotein inhibitor to increase cellular uptake of drugs such as anticancer drugs by taking octylonium bromide simultaneously with or proceding drug administration.
