Popis: | Purpose. Implantation of biodegradable polymers provides a powerfulmethod to deliver high, sustained concentrations of chemotherapeuticsto brain tumors. The present studies examined the ability of injectablepolymeric microspheres, formulated to release carboplatin or BCNUfor 2–3 weeks, to enhance survival in a rodent model ofsurgically-resected glioma. |
