For example, therapeutics that include an active drug and that are capable of locating in a particular tissue or cell type e.g., a specific diseased tissue, may reduce the amount of the drug in tissues of the body that do not require treatment. This is particularly important when treating a condition such as cancer where it is desirable that a cytotoxic dose of the 10 drug is delivered to cancer cells without killing the surrounding non-cancerous tissue. Further, such therapeutics may reduce the undesirable and sometimes life threatening side effects common in anticancer therapy. For example, nano- particle therapeutics may, due the small size, evade recognition within the body allowing for targeted and controlled delivery while e.g., remaining stable for an effective amount of time. [0002] Therapeutics that offer such therapy and/or controlled release and/or targeted therapy also must be able to 15 deliver an effective amount of drug. It can be a challenge to prepare nanoparticle systems that have an appropriate amount of drug associated with each nanoparticle, while keeping the size of the nanoparticles small enough to have advantageous delivery properties. For example, while it is desirable to load a nanoparticle with a high quantity of ther- apeutic agent, nanoparticle preparations that use a drug load that is too high will result in nanoparticles that are too large for practical therapeutic use. Further, it may be desirable for therapeutic nanoparticles to remain stable so as to e.g. 20 substantially limit rapid or immediate release of the therapeutic agent. [0003] Accordingly, a need exists for new nanoparticle formulations and methods of making such nanoparticles and compositions, that can deliver therapeutic levels of drugs to treat diseases such as cancer, while also reducing patient side effects. [0004] WO-2010/005725 discloses therapeutic polymeric nanoparticles comprising vinca alkaloids. 25 [0005] WO-2011/072218 discloses lyophilised pharmaceutical compositions comprising polymeric nanoparticles which, upon reconstitution, have low levels of particles over 10 microns in size. [0006] US-2006/034925 and WO-2004/089291 both disclose a composition for delivering a tumor therapeutic agent to a patient which includes a fast-release formulation of a tumor apoptosis inducing agent, a slow-release formulation of a tumor therapeutic agent and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 30 [0007] WO-2011/084521 discloses therapeutic nanoparticles comprising epothilone and a biocompatible polymer. SUMMARY [0008] Provided herein is a method for screening nanoparticle suspensions to identify a suspension having a specific 35 drug release rate, comprising: (a) separately preparing a plurality of suspensions having nanoparticles comprising a therapeutic agent, and 10 to 99 weight percent of one or more a block copolymers having at least one hydrophobic portion selected from poly(D,L- lactic) acid or poly(lactic) acid-co-poly(glycolic) acid and at least one hydrophilic portion which is a poly(ethylene)gly- 40 col, and optionally 0 to 75 weight percent of a homopolymer selected from poly(D,L-lactic) acid; wherein each suspension is in a separate compartment, each suspension comprises nanoparticles having a pre-determined mo- lecular weight of the block copolymer and if present, a pre-determined molecular weight of the homopolymer; (b) determining the glass transition temperature of the drug loaded nanoparticles in each of the suspensions; and (c) identifying the suspension having drug-loaded nanoparticles with a pre-determined glass transition temperature 45 of between 37°C to 39.5°C, 39.5°C to 41°C or 42°C to 50°C, thereby identifying a suspension with the specific drug release rate.

It has historically been explored in cutaneous lesions due to the possibility of focal/specific effects and minimization of adverse events. Advances in drug delivery have mostly been based on biomaterials, such as liposomal and hybrid lipoidal vesicles, nanoemulsions, microneedling, and laser-assisted photosensitizer delivery systems. This review summarizes the most promising approaches to enhancing the photosensitizers’ transdermal delivery efficacy for the photodynamic treatment for cutaneous pre-cancerous lesions and skin cancers. Additionally, discussions on strategies and advantages in these approaches, as well as summarized challenges, perspectives, and translational potential for future applications, will be discussed.

The present clinical case illustrates a successful treatment option and is the first to describe the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Redaporfin, followed by immune checkpoint inhibition with an anti-PD1 antibody. This patient presented an extensive tumor in the mouth pavement progressing after surgery, radiotherapy, and multiple lines of systemic treatment. PDT with Redaporfin achieved the destruction of all visible tumor, and the sequential use of an immune checkpoint inhibitor allowed a sustained complete response. This case is an example of the effect of this therapeutic combination and may provide the basis for a new treatment modality. © 2018 The Author(s) Published by S.
