Nanoparticles and brain tumor treatment /

Despite progresses in surgery, radiotherapy, and in chemotherapy, an effective curative treatment of gliomas does not yet exist. Mortality is still close to 100% and the average survival of patients with GBM is less than 1 year. The efficacy of current anti-cancer strategies in brain tumors is limit...

520 3 |a Despite progresses in surgery, radiotherapy, and in chemotherapy, an effective curative treatment of gliomas does not yet exist. Mortality is still close to 100% and the average survival of patients with GBM is less than 1 year. The efficacy of current anti-cancer strategies in brain tumors is limited by the lack of specific therapies against malignant cells. Besides, the delivery of the drugs to brain tumors is limited by the presence of the blood brain barrier. The oncogenesis of gliomas is characterized by several biological processes and genetic alterations, involved in the neoplastic transformation. The modulation of gene expression to more levels, such as DNA, mRNA, proteins and transduction signal pathways, may be the most effective modality to down-regulate or silence some specific gene functions. Gliomas are characterized by extensive microvascular proliferation and a higher degree of vasculature. In malignant gliomas targeted therapies efficacy is low. In this complex field, it seems to be very important to improve specific selective drugs delivery systems. Drugs, antisense oligonucleotides, small interference RNAs, engineered monoclonal antibodies and other therapeutic molecules may diffuse into CNS overcoming the BBB. Nanotechnology could be used both to improve the treatment efficacy and to reduce the adverse side effects.
