Liposomes are a novel drug delivery system. They are bimolecular vesicle structures that form spontaneously when phospholipids are dispersed in water. At Alfa Cytology, we have established a proprietary liposome platform to accommodate the increasing demand of novel liposome preparations.
Bladder cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor affecting the urinary system, and it poses significant challenges in terms of therapeutic development and management. Intravesical chemotherapy, which involves delivering anticancer drugs directly into the bladder, is a common adjuvant therapy following transurethral resection of bladder tumors. However, traditional intravesical chemotherapy approaches suffer from limitations such as low drug penetration rate, short residence time, and unsustainable drug action. To overcome these challenges and enhance the effectiveness of bladder cancer therapy, the development of innovative drug delivery systems is crucial.

One promising approach is the utilization of liposomal drug delivery systems. Liposomes are lipid-based vesicular structures with a lipophilic bilayer surrounded by hydrophilic layers. They offer several advantages, including biodegradability, biocompatibility, high encapsulation efficiency, and the ability to modify their surface properties. Liposomes can be tailored to achieve targeted drug delivery, controlled release, and improved drug penetration into cancer cells. The development of liposomal drug delivery systems holds great promise in revolutionizing bladder cancer therapy.
