Ultrasound-enhanced delivery of drugs and nanomedicines for improved treatment of cancer and brain disease

Cancer treatment with chemotherapy is limited by inadequate delivery to the tumor and severe side-effects due to accumulation in healthy tissues. Encapsulation of drugs in nanoparticles can enable a more targeted delivery, improved efficacy and reduced toxicity. However, delivery of nanoparticles is often insufficient due to various biological barriers in the tumor. Ultrasound in combination with microbubbles has emerged as a promising method to enhance delivery of nanomedicines by sonopermeation. The biomechanical effects from the oscillating microbubbles enhance permeability of the vascular wall, and improve extravasation and distribution of the nanoparticles in the tumor, resulting in enhanced therapeutic efficacy. The same technique can also be used to open the blood-brain barrier in a non-invasive, localized and reversible manner to deliver various drugs to the brain. To be able to take sonopermeation into clinical practice, it is crucial to understand the underlying mechanisms. The overall aim of the project I am currently working on is to apply innovative tools to obtain novel insights in the mechanisms of ultrasound-mediated drug delivery, which will enable us to further optimize the technology for improved cancer therapy.
