Figure 6.
Release profile of OP (•) and GEM (■) from inner/outer OPin/GEMout (A) and GEMin/OPout (B) double-layered PLGA cylinders in comparison to the projected theoretical release of OP (- - -) and GEM (—), which assumes a constant release rate over 30 days.
Notes: The projected theoretical release rate was calculated from injected treatment doses of the two drugs shown effective in either the stagnation or reduction of tumor volume in a heterotopic xenograft model of human pancreatic cancer in mice (unpublished data, Szewczuk’s lab, August 2016).
Abbreviations: GEM, gemcitabine; OP, oseltamivir phosphate.
