Abstract:
In order to enhance antineoplastic agents efficiency new therapy methods were developed one of which being magnetic targeted chemotherapy (MTC). MTC method consists in a permanent or reversible selective binding of highly magnetic particles (carriers) with drugs, antibodies et. al., followed by targeting or adhesion of these complexes to the tumor using an external magnetic field. At this early stage of targeting tumors with magnetic particles, there are reasons to be optimistic.
