Patent Title: Nanoparticle-based Therapeutic Compositions and Methods for Treating Cancer

Patent Number: 8129385 Filing Date: August 4, 2008 Grants Date: March 6, 2012 Assignee: The Pennsylvania State University

Background: The patent in question, which is a continuation of US patent application US 2007/0161912 A1, focuses on nanoparticle-based compositions used for cancer treatment. These composite materials were developed by researchers from the Department of Chemistry and the Eberly College of Science at The Pennsylvania State University.

Claims and Scope: The patent's primary focus is on novel therapeutic compositions comprising two distinct components: a therapeutic agent (i.e., a cancer-fighting drug or toxin) and a nanoparticle-based delivery system. The delivery system primarily consists of liposomes, which are spherical particles comprising a shell of lipids or biocompatible lipophilic excipients surrounding a core of drug.

Key Innovations:

  1. Nanoparticle-based Cancer Therapeutic Compositions: The compositions of the claimed invention integrate choline-based lipids and other membrane-stabilizing surfactants to maintain liposome stability.
  2. Methods of Preparing Nanoparticle-based Cancer Therapeutic Compositions: The methods described involve conjugating a therapeutic agent or drug to the nanoparticle's surface to create a controlled release mechanism for the therapeutic agent.
  3. Compositions Comprising Platinum Compounds and Nanoparticles: The claimed invention provides nanoliposome comprising a non-limiting platinum compound in combination with nanoparticles to enhance the efficacy of platinum compounds against specific cancer types.

Therapeutic Applications: The claimed invention presents potential applications in treating cancer and reducing the undesirable side effects associated with chemotherapy. The compositions work by allowing the therapeutic agent to accumulate within cancer cells while mitigating damage to healthy cells.

Comparative Data: Research presented in the patent supports the effectiveness of the claimed compositions against solid tumor models. The research demonstrates improved intracellular uptake of therapeutic agents and reduced systemic toxicity in relation to free drug administered without the claimed nanoparticle-based delivery system.

Future Work: Further development of these compositions could involve studying their pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety profiles for particular cancer types. Additionally, potential applications of the claimed invention in imaging and diagnostic modalities may also provide a promising area of research and development.

Limitations and Potential Challenges: The nanoparticle-based composition requires efficient design to ensure optimal drug loading and release mechanisms to ensure effective therapeutic action against cancer cells. Furthermore, scalability of production is a key challenge, as large-scale production of such materials can be labor-intensive and costly.

Given the complex nature of these nanocomposites and various applications and challenges, optimization may require sophisticated high-throughput screening methods to predict biodistribution, efficacy, and toxicity.
