Paclitaxel-Eluting Polymer Film Reduces Locoregional Recurrence and Improves Survival in a Recurrent Sarcoma Model: A Novel Investigational Therapy

Abstract: Tumor bed implantation of Pax-films after R0/R1 resection is superior to Pax IV as evidenced by reduced locoregional recurrence and improved OS in a murine recurrent sarcoma model. Continuous local drug exposure via polymer films represents a potentially novel approach for treatment of locally aggressive sarcomas.

“…Over the last decade, emerging thermosensitive hydrogels have been reported as sustainable DDSs; however, hydrogels have a relatively fast degradation speed. Polymeric films have effectively prevented cancer relapse in the resection site of primary cancers (Liu et al, 2010(Liu et al, , 2012. In agreement with the polymer films, the PDLLA nanofibers used in our study exhibited outstanding biocompatibility and biodegradability, as well as a consistent drug-release rate.…”

“…21,22 Therefore, since 1970s fundamental explorations on effective drug delivery systems have aimed to optimize the anti-tumor activity of parent drugs/radioactive particles, diminish non-selective toxicity and improve quality of life for cancer patients. 8,23,24 Several novel DDSs including expansile nanoparticles, 25 polymeric platforms 11,26 and chitosan hydrogel, 27,28 have been applied to retard or postpone tumor relapse in animal models. Despite plenty of advantages in local therapy, some of the referring DDSs have confronted certain barriers to maintain sustained local drug concentration in satisfactory ways.…”

“…They are mainly biodegradable polymer based platforms in order to avoid repeated removal surgery. 2224 Alt hough the nanoscale two-dimensional (2D) mesh reported recently can be effectively internalized by the cells after localized injection, it may also possibly to migrate away from the tumor site due to its low dimension in an in vivo environment. 25 Recently, a series of implantable electrospun nanofibrous LDDSs have shown superior therapeutic performance in cancer treatment due to their unique strength in ensuring therapeutic dosage levels at the tumor site for extended period while maintaining low systematic drug exposure.…”
