Novel formulations of diruthenium(II,III)-NSAID (NSAID, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) metallodrugs encapsulated into biocompatible terpolymer-lipid nanoparticles (TPLNs) to target glioblastoma cancer were developed. The nanoformulations of Ibuprofenate (RuIbp) and Naproxenate (RuNpx) metallodrugs were synthesized and characterized. The procedure rationally designed to avoid
