    • Effect of acoustic cluster therapy (ACT®) combined with chemotherapy in a patient-derived xenograft mouse model of pancreatic cancer 

      Ng, Serina; Healey, Andrew J.; Sontum, Per Christian; Kvåle, Svein; Torp, Sverre Helge; Sulheim, Einar; Von Hoff, Daniel; Han, Haiyoung (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas respond poorly to chemotherapy, in part due to the dense tumor stroma that hinders drug delivery. Ultrasound (US) in combination with microbubbles has previously shown promise as a means ...

    • Multi-modal characterization of vasculature and nanoparticle accumulation in five tumor xenograft models 

      Sulheim, Einar; Kim, Jana; van Wamel, Annemieke; Kim, Eugene; Snipstad, Sofie; Vidic, Igor; Grimstad, Ingeborg; Widerøe, Marius; Torp, Sverre Helge; Lundgren, Steinar; Waxman, David J.; Davies, Catharina de Lange (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      Preclinical research has demonstrated that nanoparticles and macromolecules can accumulate in solid tumors due to the enhanced permeability and retention effect. However, drug loaded nanoparticles often fail to show increased ...
    • Targeted siRNA lipid nanoparticles for the treatment of KRAS-mutant tumors 

      Anthiya, Shubaash; Oztürk, Süleyman Can; Yanik, Hamdullah; Tavukcuoglu, Ece; Sahin, Adem; Datta, Dhrubajyoti; Charisse, Klaus; Álvarez, David Moreira; Loza, María Isabel; Calvo, Alfonso; Sulheim, Einar; Loevenich, Simon; Klinkenberg, Geir; Schmid, Ruth Baumberger; Manoharan, Muthiah; Esendağlı, Güneş; Jose Alonso, Maria (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      K-RAS is a highly relevant oncogene that is mutated in approximately 90% of pancreatic cancers and 20–25% of lung adenocarcinomas. The aim of this work was to develop a new anti-KRAS siRNA therapeutic strategy through the ...
