A New Method to Enhance Lung Cancer Treatment
Invention Summary:
Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. Small molecule Tyrosine Kinase (TK) Inhibitors acting on the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors (EGFRs) are standard therapies for patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR-TK inhibitor-sensitizing mutations. However, fewer than 10 % of patients with NSCLC benefit...

Nanotechnology Approach for Inhalation Treatment
of Pulmonary (Lung) Fibrosis
Inhalation Treatment
Invention Summary:
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), the spontaneous development of scar tissue within the lungs, is a progressive fibrotic disease that impairs the lung’s ability to get oxygen. To date, its pathogenesis remains elusive and the survival time of patients is between three and five years. Pirfenidone, an...
