DESCRIPTION:Superhigh-Capacity Polymeric Micelles for Chemo/Immunotherapy o
 f Cancer\n\nThe lecture focuses on the use of Poly(2-oxazoline) (POx)-base
 d polymeric micelles (PMs)\, which have the unique ability to carry a high
  load of water-insoluble drugs. This capability enhances the solubility\, 
 stability\, efficacy and safety of these drugs. The shape of the micelle i
 nfluences the drug’s performance. The presentation also will discuss the
  relationship between drug loading\, critical micelle concentration\, the 
 partitioning of micelles and serum proteins\, pharmacokinetic and toxicoki
 netic profiles and efficacy. These innovative approaches hasten the applic
 ation of novel PMs for therapeutic uses in cancer and other diseases. This
  research was funded by NIH grants CA198999 and CA264488. The conflict-of-
 interest statement indicates an affiliation with DelAQUA Pharmaceuticals.\
