      Towards Optimal Design of Cancer Nanomedicines: Multi-stage Nanoparticles for the Treatment of Solid Tumors 

      Stylianopoulos, T.; Economides, E. A.; Baish, J. W.; Fukumura, D.; Jain, R. K. (2015)
      Conventional drug delivery systems for solid tumors are composed of a nano-carrier that releases its therapeutic load. These two-stage nanoparticles utilize the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect to enable ...
