Abstract: Cancer patients nowadays suffer from serious side effects and unpleasant experiences when treated with anti-cancer drugs. Conventional drug delivery methods including drug pills/capsules, topical drug gels/drops and drug injections are too simple, incapable of providing controllable and efficient tumour drug delivery in cancer treatment. Implantable drug delivery devices open a new horizon for drug treatment. Through device implantation locally onto disease site, high efficiency drug delivery can be achieved. Utilizing techniques from microfluidics, precise manipulation of drug fluids by these devices offer great advances for treatment. In our study, an electrochemical actuated microfluidic drug delivery device was fabricated and studied in vitro and in vivo. Cultured pancreatic cancer cell colonies were successfully inhibited by programmable Doxorubicin treatments controlled by devices. Further, 12 devices were implanted into 12 Kunming mice for evaluation of biocompatibility and dr ug delivery performance. Tissue biopsy and blood sample analyses indicated all 12 mice remaining healthy after devices implantation. Adrenaline was delivered to the abdominal cavity of the mice by using the implanted device and compared with conventional injection as a positive control. Both approaches have shown that they are able to precisely control and manipulate the increment rate of blood pressure in the small animals. (More)
