METHOD OF TREATING CANCER COMPRISING INTRODUCTION OF HEAT AND DELIVERY OF LIPOSOME CONTAINING AN ACTIVE AGENT OR THERMO-ACTIVATED DRUG, GENE OR VIRUS TO TISSUE

摘要

A method of treating cancer by introducing heat into cancerous tissue and delivering a liposome containing an active agent or a thermo-activated drug, gene or virus to said tissue. The heat delivered is sufficient to release the active agent or activate the thermo-activated drug, gene or virus. The cancer can be esophageal cancer. The liposome containing an active agent or a thermo-activated drug, gene or virus can be a thermosensitive liposome. The active agent can be an anti-neoplastic agent, for example doxorubicin.
