This report describes local administration of submicron particle paclitaxel (SPP) (NanoPac®: ~ 800-nm-sized particles with high relative surface area with each particle containing ~ 2 billion molecules of paclitaxel) in preclinical models and clinical trials evaluating treatment of carcinomas. Paclitaxel is active in the treatment of epithelial solid tumors including ovarian, peritoneal, pancreatic, breast, esophageal, prostate, and non-small cell lung cancer. SPP has been delivered directly to solid tumors, where the particles are retained and continuously release the drug, exposing primary tumors to high, therapeutic levels of paclitaxel for several weeks. As a result, tumor cell death shifts from primarily apoptosis to both apoptosis and necroptosis. Direct local tumoricidal effects of paclitaxel, as well as stimulation of innate and adaptive immune responses, contribute to antineoplastic effects. Local administration of SPP may facilitate tumor response to systemically administered chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy without contributing to systemic toxicity. Results of preclinical and clinical investigations described here suggest that local administration of SPP achieves clinical benefit with negligible toxicity and may complement standard treatments for metastatic disease.
