Megestrol acetate in cachexia and anorexia
The aim is to review major clinical trials that have used megestrol acetate (MA) in the treatment of cachexia across several disease states. A review of general usage and potential side-effects are discussed. A theory that the newly approved nanocrystal formation of MA can better deliver this potent medication for treatment will also be reviewed.
متن کاملNanographene-oxide mediated hyperthermia for cancer treatment
One of the new trends of nanomedicine is the application of nanoparticles for targeting tumors to achieve localized tumor cell destruction while producing minimal side effects on healthy cells, but their application will not be feasible without a previous understanding of vectorcell/tissue interactions, possible toxicity and accumulation risks. [1] The enhanced permeability and retention effect...
متن کاملNew Biopolymer Nanoparticles Improve the Solubility of Lipophilic Megestrol Acetate.
As many substances are poorly soluble in water and thus possess decreased bioavailability, creating orally administered forms of these substances is a challenge. The objective of this study was to determine whether the solubility of megestrol acetate, a Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS) class II drug, can be improved by using a newly-synthesized surfactant (Rofam 70: a rapeseed meth...
متن کاملMegestrol acetate for the treatment of anorexia-cachexia syndrome.
BACKGROUND Megestrol acetate (MA) is currently used to improve appetite and to increase weight in cancer-associated anorexia. In 1993 MA was approved by the USA's Federal Drug Administration for the treatment of anorexia, cachexia, or unexplained weight loss in patients with AIDS. The mechanism by which MA increases appetite is unknown, and its effectiveness for anorexia and cachexia in neoplas...
متن کاملTransferrin-functionalized nanographene oxide for delivery of platinum complexes to enhance cancer-cell selectivity and apoptosis-inducing efficacy
Rational design and construction of delivery nanosystems for anticancer metal complexes is a crucial strategy to improve solubility under physiological conditions and permeability and retention behavior in tumor cells. Therefore, in this study, we designed and synthesize a transferrin (Tf)-conjugated nanographene oxide (NGO) nanosystem as a cancer-targeted nanocarrier of Pt complexes (Tf-NGO@Pt...
