Summary
Full Title: NBTXR3 hafnium oxide nanoparticle activated by ionizing radiation demonstrates marked radioenhancement and antitumor effect via high energy deposit in human soft tissue sarcoma
Content: Local and systemic control of Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS) remains a clinical challenge. Radiation therapy is part of the standard of care of STS. The narrowness of its therapeutic window represents the main concern for different clinical settings. Thus, local delivery of radiation doses is critical to ensure optimal benefit-risk ratio. NBTXR3, biocompatible hafnium oxide nanoparticles were designed as therapeutics to be activated by ionizing radiation to achieve tumor control by enhancement of local energy deposition.
