Anticancer activity and embolization evaluation of open porous PBVHx embolic microspheres loaded with triptolide

Key Points

• The study reveals significant anticancer activity of open porous microspheres loaded with triptolide, enhancing tumor targeting.
• In vitro tests indicated a 75% reduction in tumor cell viability following treatment with triptolide-loaded microspheres.
• Assessment involved the evaluation of embolization effectiveness through various drug delivery techniques across cell models.
• This work suggests further clinical evaluation to confirm efficacy; results are preliminary with in vitro evidence.
