To reduce the systemic toxicity and prolong the systemic presence of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea (CCNU), a lipid-based drug carrier was designed and characterized.
Lipid association increases the potency against primary medulloblastoma cells and systemic exposure of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea (CCNU) in rats.
