Photodynamic therapy enhances liposomal doxorubicin distribution in tumors during isolated perfusion of rodent lungs

Hubert van den Bergh, Elodie Debefve, Yi Wang

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) at low drug-light conditions can enhance the transport of intravenously injected macromolecular therapeutics through the tumor vasculature. Here we determined the impact of PDT on the distribution of liposomal doxorub ...
