Nanocarriers, such as liposomes, have favorable advantages with the potential to further improve cancer immunotherapy and even stronger immune responses by improving cell type-specific delivery and enhancing drug efficacy. Liposomes can offer solutions to common problems faced by several cancer immunotherapies, including the following: (1) Vaccination: Liposomes can improve the delivery of antigens and other stimulatory molecules to antigen-presenting cells or T cells; (2) Tumor normalization: Liposomes can deliver drugs selectively to the tumor microenvironment to overcome the immune-suppressive state; (3) Rewiring of tumor signaling: Liposomes can be used for the delivery of specific drugs to specific cell types to correct or modulate pathways to facilitate better anti-tumor immune responses; (4) Combinational therapy: Liposomes are ideal vehicles for the simultaneous delivery of drugs to be combined with other therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and phototherapy. In this review, different liposomal systems specifically developed for immunomodulation in cancer are summarized and discussed. Keywords: liposome; drug delivery; cancer immunotherapy; immunomodulation 1. The Potential of Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Cancer Cancer immunotherapy has been widely explored because of its durable and robust effects [1].

  • Ambisome® (Amphotericin B) Liposome for Injection
    AmBisome® (amphotericin B) liposome for injection DESCRIPTION AmBisome® for Injection is a sterile, non-pyrogenic lyophilized product for intravenous infusion. Each vial contains 50 mg of amphotericin B, USP, intercalated into a liposomal membrane consisting of approximately 0.64 mg alpha tocopherol, USP; 52 mg cholesterol, NF; 84 mg distearoyl phosphatidylglycerol, sodium salt; 213 mg hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine. In addition, 27 mg disodium succinate hexahydrate and 900 mg sucrose, NF are used as a buffer. AmBisome may contain hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide as pH adjusters. Following reconstitution with Sterile Water for Injection, USP, the resulting pH of the suspension is between 5-6. AmBisome is a true single bilayer liposomal drug delivery system. Liposomes are closed, spherical vesicles created by mixing specific proportions of amphophilic substances such as phospholipids and cholesterol so that they arrange themselves into multiple concentric bilayer membranes when hydrated in aqueous solutions. Single bilayer liposomes are then formed by microemulsification of multilamellar vesicles using a homogenizer. AmBisome consists of these unilamellar bilayer liposomes with amphotericin B intercalated within the membrane. Due to the nature and quantity of amphophilic substances used, and the lipophilic moiety in the amphotericin B molecule, the drug is an integral part of the overall structure of the AmBisome liposomes. AmBisome contains true liposomes that are less than 100 nm in diameter. A schematic depiction of the liposome is presented below. Note: Liposomal encapsulation or incorporation into a lipid complex can substantially affect a drug’s functional properties relative to those of the unencapsulated drug or non-lipid associated drug. In addition, different liposomal or lipid-complex products with a common active ingredient may vary from one another in the chemical composition and physical form of the lipid component.

  • Development of Cationic Liposome Formulations for Intratracheal Gene Therapy of Early Lung Cancer
    © 2000 Nature America, Inc. 0929-1903/00/$15.00/ϩ0 www.nature.com/cgt Development of cationic liposome formulations for intratracheal gene therapy of early lung cancer Yiyu Zou,1 Gang Zong,1 Yi-He Ling,2 and Roman Perez-Soler2 1Department of Cancer Biology, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas 77030; and 2New York University, Rita J. & Stanley Kaplan Comprehensive Cancer Center, New York, New York 10016. Regional (intratracheal or aerosol) delivery of cationic liposome-DNA complexes for gene therapy of lung disease offers distinct advantages over systemic (intravenous) administration. However, optimal formulations for early lung cancer treatment have not been established. Therefore, we investigated Ͼ50 different liposome and micelle formulations for factors that may affect their transcription efficiency and tested the ideal formulations in an in vivo mouse model. Our data showed that cationic liposomes were generally more effective at transfecting genes than were micelles of the same lipid composition, thus suggesting a role for the bilayer structure in facilitating transfection. In addition, the transfection efficiency of liposome-delivered genes was highly dependent upon the lipid composition, lipid/DNA ratio, particle size of the liposome-DNA complex, and cell lines used. By optimizing these factors in vitro and in vivo, we developed a novel liposome formulation (DP3) suitable for intratracheal administration. Using G67 liposome as control, we found that DP3 was more effective than G67 in vitro and as effective as G67 at both preventing lung tumor growth and prolonging survival in our lung cancer mouse model. We observed a positive correlation between the in vitro p53 function and the in vivo antitumoral activities of liposome-p53 formulations, which had not been reported previously in studies of an intravenous liposome gene delivery system.

  • Liposomal Formulations in Clinical Use: an Updated Review
    pharmaceutics Review Liposomal Formulations in Clinical Use: An Updated Review Upendra Bulbake †, Sindhu Doppalapudi †, Nagavendra Kommineni and Wahid Khan * Department of Pharmaceutics, National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research, Hyderabad 500037, India; [email protected] (U.B.); [email protected] (S.D.); [email protected] (N.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Academic Editor: Murali Mohan Yallapu Received: 16 January 2017; Accepted: 23 March 2017; Published: 27 March 2017 Abstract: Liposomes are the first nano drug delivery systems that have been successfully translated into real-time clinical applications. These closed bilayer phospholipid vesicles have witnessed many technical advances in recent years since their first development in 1965. Delivery of therapeutics by liposomes alters their biodistribution profile, which further enhances the therapeutic index of various drugs. Extensive research is being carried out using these nano drug delivery systems in diverse areas including the delivery of anti-cancer, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory drugs and therapeutic genes. The significant contribution of liposomes as drug delivery systems in the healthcare sector is known by many clinical products, e.g., Doxil®, Ambisome®, DepoDur™, etc. This review provides a detailed update on liposomal technologies e.g., DepoFoam™ Technology, Stealth technology, etc., the formulation aspects of clinically used products and ongoing clinical trials on liposomes. Keywords: liposomes; therapeutics; drug delivery; liposome technology; nanotechnology; clinical trials; marketed products 1. Introduction The concept of liposomal drug delivery system has revolutionised the pharmaceutical field. Alec Bangham, in 1961 [1], first described liposomes. Since then active research in the field of liposomes have been carried out and their applications are now well established in various areas, such as drug, biomolecules and gene delivery [2].

Cardiac monitoring is advised especially in those patients who have received prior anthracyclines or who have pre-existing cardiac disease or who have had prior radiotherapy encompassing the heart. 2. Severe myelosuppression may occur. 3. DaunoXome should be administered only under the supervision of a physician who is experienced in the use of cancer chemotherapeutic agents. 4. Dosage should be reduced in patients with impaired hepatic function. (See DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION) 5. A triad of back pain, flushing, and chest tightness has been reported in 13.8% of the patients (16/116) treated with DaunoXome in the Phase III clinical trial, and in 2.7% of treatment cycles (27/994). This triad generally occurs during the first five minutes of the infusion, subsides with interruption of the infusion, and generally does not recur if the infusion is then resumed at a slower rate. DESCRIPTION DaunoXome (daunorubicin citrate liposome injection) is a sterile, pyrogen-free, preservative-free product in a single use vial for intravenous infusion. DaunoXome contains an aqueous solution of the citrate salt of daunorubicin encapsulated within lipid vesicles (liposomes) composed of a lipid bilayer of distearoylphosphatidylcholine and cholesterol (2:1 molar ratio), with a mean diameter of about 45 nm. The lipid to drug weight ratio is 18.7:1 (total lipid:daunorubicin base), equivalent to a 10:5:1 molar ratio of distearoylphosphatidylcholine:cholesterol:daunorubicin.
