This project focuses on improving drug delivery for patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei, a rare cancer characterized by excessive mucus production. By utilizing nanobots to transport anti-cancer drugs through mucus barriers, the project aims to enhance treatment efficacy and patient outcomes.
Mucus is a defensive barrier that protects the underlying cells from pathogens and toxic compounds, although it also hinders the delivery of drugs whenever they are administered locally.
There are different types of mucus-secreting tumours, such as pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), that could benefit from more efficient transmucosal delivery of anti-cancer drugs. PMP is a rare disease and the most mucinous tumour type, thus it will be used as a proof of concept for this project.
