Pharmacokinetics

Combination therapies simultaneously inhibiting different therapeutic targets in cancer is challenged by individual pharmacokinetic profiles. Here, the authors generate an orally provided multi-targeted kinase inhibitor that is lymphatic absorbed and increases survival in a murine model of myelofibrosis.

It is currently difficult to synthesise NIR-II probes with good quantum yields, biocompatibility and pharmacokinetics. Here the authors report a strategy to alter these properties by modifying the protein coatings with biofunctional molecules, and generate long-wavelength fluorophores for in vivo imaging.
