The present review focuses on the "drug targeting and delivery" approach of the selective transportation of cisplatin to bone tumors and bone metastases. This aim is realized by binding cisplatin to (bis)phosphonate ligands or their derivatives. Geminal bisphosphonates are in

The sole agents pemetrexed (PEM), docetaxel and anti-EGFR agents are approved second-line therapies for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after failure with cisplatin-based doublets. The potential usefulness of platinum-based doublets as rechallenge for second-line chemotherapy has not yet been established.

An efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) offers the potential for clean energy generation in low-temperature, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells running on hydrogen fuel and air. In the past several years, researchers have developed high-performance electrocatalysts for the ORR to address
Archivos espanoles de urologia, 66(5), 524-535 (2013-06-26)
Cisplatin has been the cornerstone of germ cell testicular tumors therapy since its introduction more tan 30 years ago, and a basic part of the schemes given to multiple ovarian, lung, head and neck, and bladder tumors among others. Some
