2018 – ECHNO 2018 – NBTXR3 for elderly and frail HNSCC patients

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, Head & Neck

NBTXR3 administered as a single intratumoral injection and activated by radiotherapy, is currently evaluated in a phase I clinical trial for head and neck cancer. At the 2018 Multidisciplinary Head and Neck Cancers Symposium in Scottsdale Arizona, preliminary results were presented by prof. C. Le Tourneau. […]

2018 – ASCO GI – A phase I/II trial of NBTXR3 nanoparticles activated by SBRT in the treatment of liver cancers

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, Liver

The physical mode of action of NBTXR3 may represent a breakthrough approach for the local treatment of liver cancers, as it does not engage liver and renal functions, i.e. nanoparticles are not metabolized and not excreted by kidney. A phase I/II trial has been implemented for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and liver metastasis. […]

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

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, Head & Neck, Liver, Rectum, STS

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. […]

2018 – Multidisciplinary H&N – NBTXR3 for Head and Neck Cancer

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, Head & Neck

2017 – Abstract – THNO – NBTXR3 in combination with IMRT in patients with locally advanced HNSCC

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, Head & Neck

At the 2017 THNO in Nice, France, prof. C. Le Tourneau presented preliminary results of NBTXR3 in patients suffering from HNSCC. The treatment was associated with a positive safety profile, and preliminary effiacy evaluation, the local Complete Response rate is 83 % (dose level15% and 22%), with a duration of response of 22 months. […]

2017 – Abstract – CTOS – NBTXR3 induces antitumoral immune response in human STS

Clinical Data NBTXR3, Congress Abstracts, STS

The enclosed abstract was presented at the “2017 Connective Tissue Oncology Society Annual Meeting (CTOS), Maui, Hawaii”. The abstract “NBTXR3 Treatment Induces Antitumoral Immune Response in Human Soft Tissue Sarcoma” describes how NBTXR3 activated by RT triggers an enhanced adaptive immune response and contributes to transform “cold” tumor into “hot” tumor.

2017 – Abstract – 35th CFS – Hafnium Oxide Nanoparticles: An Emergent Promising Treatment for Solid Tumors

Congress Abstracts, In Vitro, In Vitro in Vivo NBTXR3

Hafnium oxide nanoparticles: an emergent promising treatment for solid tumors To improve tumor response, radiotherapy (RT) has been combined with chemical agents, radiosensitizers and monoclonal antibodies. However, the complexity of these associations in terms of pharmacology, local control, clinical outcome benefits or patient quality of life underlines the need for the development of new therapeutic approaches. […]

2014 – NBTXR3 concept and dose enhancement – Marill et al.

In Vitro, In Vitro in Vivo NBTXR3, NO-RIGHTS, Publications

Hafnium oxide, NBTXR3 nanoparticles were designed for high dose energy deposition within cancer cells when exposed to ionizing radiation. The purpose of this study was to assess the possibility of predicting the in vitro the biological effect of NBTXR3 nanoparticles when exposed to ionizing radiation. Cellular uptake of NBTXR3 nanoparticles was assessed in a panel of human cancer cell lines (radioresistant and radiosensitive) by transmission electron microscopy. The radioenhancement of NBTXR3 nanoparticles was measured by the clonogenic survival assay.
