Abstrakt: | A recent study conducted by Purdue University Northwest explores the use of photodynamic chemotherapy as a potential treatment option for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). TNBC is a particularly aggressive form of breast cancer that lacks certain receptors for targeted treatments. The study found that a combination of a synthesized photosensitizer called chlorin-vitamin conjugate and the chemotherapeutic agent taxol, when used in conjunction with light treatment, exhibited a strong synergistic effect against TNBC cells. The researchers suggest that this combination therapy could improve clinical outcomes and quality of life for TNBC patients. [Extracted from the article] |
