US Patent:

20200170946, Jun 4, 2020

Filed:

May 24, 2018

Appl. No.:

16/615260

Inventors:

- Evanston IL, US
Vikas Nandwana - Evanston IL, US

International Classification:

A61K 9/107
A61K 49/18
A61K 41/00
A61K 31/337
A61K 33/243

Abstract:

Provided herein are nanoparticle-lipid composite carriers as theranostic agents, particularly for diagnosis and/or treatment of cancers and related diseases and conditions. In particular embodiments, the carrier composites comprise a lipid core and an outer shell of functionalized nanoparticles (fNPs).
