Protein bound Nano Particles Quantitative bioassays for Total and Unbounded fraction |
---|
Protein-bound paclitaxel (nanoparticle albumin–bound) is an injectable formulation of paclitaxel, which is used to treat breast cancer, lung cancer and pancreatic cancer among others. Paclitaxel destroys cancer cells by preventing the normal breakdown of microtubules during cell division. In this formulation, paclitaxel is bonded to albumin as a delivery vehicle.
|
A new formulation called Abraxane an albumin bounded form of Paclitaxel is introduced by Abraxis Bioscience, Inc is the first successful example of nab technology-based drug delivery, and consists of Paclitaxel protein-bound particles for inject able suspension (albumin bound). Abraxane or nab-Paclitaxel, is a Cremophore-free, albumin-bound 130-nm particle form of Paclitaxel. The formulation is approved by the FDA in January 2005 for the treatment of breast cancer after a failure of combination chemotherapy for metastatic disease.

Abraxane consists of particles of Paclitaxel in the nanometer-size range, stabilized with human albumin. The Paclitaxel and albumin are not covalently linked but rather associated through hydrophobic interactions. The particles of Paclitaxel are in a non-crystalline, amorphous, readily bioavailable state, allowing for rapid drug release from the particles following intravenous administration. Once injected into circulation, Paclitaxel nanoparticle quickly dissolve into smaller albumin-Paclitaxel complexes whose size is virtually identical to that of endogenous albumin molecules in blood. Thus, the albumin-Paclitaxel complexes are fully capable of utilizing the natural albumin pathways | |
