  • Publication number: 20210353607
    Abstract: The development of a new, targeted drug delivery paradigm coupled to improved PI3K inhibitors (e.g., PI3K? inhibitors) represents a significant advance in cancer therapy. Provided herein are compounds, such as compounds of Formula (I) and (II), and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, polymorphs, co-crystals, tautomers, stereoisomers, isotopically labeled derivatives, and prodrugs thereof. The compounds provided herein are PI3K (e.g., PI3K?) inhibitors and are therefore useful for the treatment and/or prevention of various diseases (e.g., proliferative diseases such as cancer). Also provided herein are nanoparticles and nanogels (e.g., P-selectin targeting nanoparticles) comprising PI3K inhibitors, such a compound described herein. In certain embodiments, a nanoparticle or nanogel described herein encapsulates a compound described herein for targeting delivery to cancer cells or tumors.

  • Publication number: 20200237670
    Abstract: Described herein are nanoparticles which are largely made of (e.g., 90 wt. %) hydrophobic drugs and are stabilized by water soluble dyes. The nanoparticles can range in size from 30 nm to 150 nm and have highly negative surface charge (e.g., ?55 mV). These nanoparticles are highly soluble in water, stable for days in PBS buffer and can be easily lyophilzed and reconstituted in water. Using quantitative self-assembly prediction calculations, topochemical molecular descriptors were identified and validated as highly predictive indicators of nano-assembly, nanoparticle size, and drug loading. The resulting nanoparticles selectively targeted kinase inhibitors to caveolin-1expressing human colon cancer and autochthonous liver cancer models to yield striking therapeutic effects while avoiding pERK inhibition in healthy skin. The nanoparticles exhibited remarkable anti-tumor efficacy in vitro and in vivo in models of hepatocellular carcinoma.

  • Patent number: 10478506
    Abstract: Described herein are polymeric drug-carrying nanogels that are capable of targeting to P-selectin for the treatment of cancer and other diseases and conditions associated with P-selectin. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, the nanogels presented here offer a drug release mechanism based on acidic pH in the microenvironment of a tumor, thereby providing improved treatment targeting capability and allowing use of lower drug doses, thereby reducing toxicity.
