2021 – A new radio-enhancer, PEP503 (NBTXR3), in combination with concurrent chemoradiation in locally advanced or unresectable rectal cancer: The dose-finding part of a phase I/II trial

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, NO-RIGHTS, Rectum

PEP503 (as known as NBTXR3) is a novel radio-enhancer composed of functionalized hafnium oxide nanoparticles for a higher energy deposit by radiotherapy comparing to radiotherapy alone without it. A prior phase 3 study for soft tissue sarcoma has demonstrated the clinical benefit. […]

2019 – ASTRO – NBTXR3 for the treatment of solid tumors

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Rectum, STM, Tête & Cou

Local interventional treatments of cancers include interventional radiology and radiotherapy (RT). NBTXR3, hafnium oxide nanoparticles, is deeply associated to both. Given as a single local administration it increases energy dose deposit inside tumor cells only when activated by ionizing radiation. Various interventional treatments have been used to treat cancers such as liver, lung, bone. Because entirely new therapies such as NBTXR3 are being introduced, implementation of interventional approaches is continuously growing. […]

2018 – ASTRO – NBTXR3 in solid tumors

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Rectum, STM, Tête & Cou

To improve radiotherapy (RT) in terms of tumor response and to reduce irradiation of healthy tissues, innovative therapeutic approaches are needed. In response, NBTXR3, injectable hafnium oxide nanoparticles, was developed for the treatment of solid tumors. Once injected intratumorally, NBTXR3 can deposit high energy within tumors only when activated by an ionizing radiation source, like current standard RTs. […]

2017 – Abstract – 13th Journées cancéropole GSO – HfO2 nanoparticles in solid tumors

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Rectum, STM, Tête & Cou

The enclosed abstract was presented at the 13th Journées cancéropole Grand Sud-Ouest at Poitiers. The abstract Hafnium oxide nanoparticles as an emergent promising treatment for solid tumors describes how hafnium oxide nanoparticles were designed at the nanoscale in the form of crystalline 50nm-particles to efficiently absorb ionizing radiation and increase the radiation dose deposited – “hot spots” of energy deposit – from within the tumor cells for efficient cell killing.

2018 – ESTRO – Hafnium Oxide Nanoparticles and Radiotherapy: A Promising New Treatment Strategy

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Rectum, STM, Tête & Cou

With recent advances in radiation delivery techniques, an increasing number of cancer patients undergo radiotherapy. However, due to the non-targeted nature of radiotherapy, doses are limited by potential toxicity to surrounding normal tissue. Thus, a major challenge remains to develop new strategies to improve the tumor selectivity of radiation therapy. […]
