Description
Xiaoli Zhang and co-authors test drug-loaded beads in rabbit kidney tumors in a 2024 paper. The beads carry gemcitabine, a cancer drug, and are sent through the artery feeding the tumor. This blocks blood flow while releasing the drug, a method called chemoembolization.
The team built the beads, loaded the drug by ion exchange, and measured size and release. Rabbits with implanted kidney tumors were scanned, treated under X-ray guidance, and scanned again ten or fourteen days later. PET imaging tracked the tumor response. Tissue checks after dissection confirmed the treatment effect.
