Development and characterization of a theranostic micelles system using TPGS with docetaxel and coumarin-6: a dual polymeric nanocarrier system

Theranostic micelles and polymeric nanocarrier-based drug delivery system are well known techniques that involve a diagnostic agent in polymeric micelles for a combination of therapy by using a co-delivery approach which can help in detection of a cancer cell in an early stage, increase killing effe...

The aim of this study is to develop a dual modality micellar system using D-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) as a nanocarrier for co-delivery of docetaxel as a model chemotherapeutic drug and coumarin-6 as a model fluorescence imaging agent for simultaneous cancer imaging and therapy in an early stage.
