Photosensitizers in prostate cancer therapy

Abstract: The search for new therapeutics for the treatment of prostate cancer is ongoing with a focus on the balance between the harms and benefits of treatment. New therapies are being constantly developed to offer treatments similar to radical therapies, with limited side effects. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising strategy in delivering focal treatment in primary as well as post radiotherapy prostate cancer. PDT involves activation of a photosensitizer (PS) by appropriate wavelength of light, generating trans… Show more

“…67 To evaluate the efficacy of PS-PhMV compared to free PS, we incubated the cells with each reagent for 8 h, with concentrations of PS ranging from 0.01–5.0 μ M. Treatment was induced by exposing the cells to white light, whereas controls were kept in the dark. Unloaded VLPs were used as additional controls, at the same protein concentration as the highest dose of drug-loaded particles.…”

“…Conventional therapies may lead to recurrence and progression of disease, being necessary the development of new approaches. Among these, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising strategy in delivering focal treatment in PCa . PDT involves the use of a photosensitizer, quite harmless in the dark, that generates cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon visible light irradiation.…”

“…Одна из наиболее сложных проблем -реабилитация онкологических больных после проведенного радикального лечения. В настоящее время среди возможных вариантов лечения локализованного рака предстательной железы все большее значение приобретают малоинвазивные методики локальной терапии, такие как ультразвуковая и радиочастотная аблация, брахитерапия, криотерапия и фотодинамическая терапия (ФДТ) [7][8][9]. В последние десятилетия ФДТ показала свою перспективность при лечении опухолей различных локализаций, в том числе РПЖ.…”

“…Фотодинамическая терапия может применяться как малоинвазивная терапия при лечении РПЖ с использованием различных ФС, находящихся на разных стадиях клинических испытаний: «Фоскан» (mTHPC) с длиной волны возбуждения 652 нм, TOOKAD (WST09 и WST11) -763 нм, MOTEXAFIN LUTETIUM (MLu) -732 нм, аминолевулиновая кислота (5-ALA) (как пролекарство -предшествен-ник протопорфирина IX) и «Фотофрин» -630 нм, Визудин (Вертепорфин) -689 нм, производные фталоцианина -670-690 нм [9,13,14].…”
