Cytarabine nanotherapeutics with increased stability and enhanced lymphoma uptake for tailored highly effective therapy of mantle cell lymphoma

Robert Pola et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that HPMA-based araC co-polymers show significant anti-lymphoma efficacy in chronically relapsing MCL patients, with long-term disappearance of lymphomas even in cases of patients who relapsed after high-dose araC treatments. This provides a strong preclinical rationale for the use of HPMA-based araC co-polymers in induction, salvage or palliative therapy for MCL patients.

HPMA-Based Copolymers Carrying STAT3 Inhibitor Cucurbitacin-D as Stimulus-Sensitive Nanomedicines for Oncotherapy

Marina R. Tavares et al.

Summary: The study synthesized polymer therapeutics based on HPMA copolymers and demonstrated their cytostatic/cytotoxic activity against various cancer cell lines in vitro, as well as anti-cancer effects against breast cancer in a murine model. The conjugates have the potential to become a component in immuno-oncotherapy schemes.

HPMA-Based Polymer Conjugates for Repurposed Drug Mebendazole and Other Imidazole-Based Therapeutics

Martin Studenovsky et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the design, synthesis, and physico-chemical properties of polymer-mebendazole nanomedicines for repurposing in cancer therapy, aiming to enhance their bioavailability. Multiple low-molecular-weight mebendazole derivatives and polymer conjugates were successfully synthesized, with potential applications beyond mebendazole to other benzimidazole-based anthelmintics. The methodology described in this study may also be applicable for conjugation of other biologically active compounds containing a heterocyclic N-H group in their molecules.
