There is a chance for the scientists from Hamburg to receive more effective drug developed against cancer. As per the speech by Dr Ilona Schonn, Director of Cell Culture Research at Indivumed GmbH, there is the development of Pre-Clinical Trial Platform of a certain drug testing to analyze tumor tissue in patient on molecular level of the drug response.

Mostly, there used liver, kidney or lung tissue slices to test metabolism and toxicity of drugs. The new trial is applied on usage of colorectal and lung cancer patients’ tumor tissues.

Nowadays the scientists are dumped with the issue in preclinical trials of patients’ cell models as a extrapolate response. Dr. Schonn explained that about 90% of clinical tests were failed with the reason of toxicity of ineffectiveness of the examined drugs. And the issue is not only in high cost of the research in the drug development but high risk given by toxicity to the patients and even the patients’ time spending for the testing that gave ineffective response.

Noninvasive infrared cancer therapies combine the unique physical and optical properties of nanoshell or nanoparticles with a near infrared laser source to thermally destroy cancer tissue without significant damage to surrounding healthy tissue.  So far, several laboratory studies prove very promising results of 100% complete eradication of tumors without any known side effects, preliminary FDA reports.

The incidence rates of cancer of the liver, pancreas, kidney, esophagus, and thyroid have continued to rise, as have the rates of new cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, myeloma, and childhood cancers. The incidence rates of cancer of the brain and bladder and melanoma of the skin in women, and testicular cancer in men, are rising, reports National Cancer Institute 2010.

The potential benefits of nanoparticle cancer treatment are highly selective and rapid tumor destruction with minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that it is effective and causes no detectable systemic toxicity. Additionally, this therapeutic device may be used in combination with and could increase the effectiveness of standard chemotherapy and radiation.
