Nanocapsules for local brain chemotherapy
- Nanocapsules are made as a core-shell structure
- Shell: biocompatible and biodegradable
- Core: chemotherapeutic antitumor agent
- Delivery medium: gel solution
- Treatment process: during surgery after tumor removal, nanocapsules are injected directly into the unremoved part of the tumor or the perifocal zone of the tumor
- Therapeutic effect: the biodegradable shell is dissolved over time and chemotherapy agent is released and acts locally
