  2. Lymphatic metastases Ran, S., et al., Pathophysiology, 2010; 17(4): 229-251. CAV2012

  3. Cancer treatment of lymph node metastases • Systemic administration causes severe side effects due to cytotoxicity to nomal tissues • Only a small fraction of drugs reach the target tissues CAV2012 Surgical dissection Radiation Chemotherapy Gene therapy

  4. Breast cancer categories Primary tumor Sentinel lymph node LN 1 LN 2 LN 3 … distant organs CAV2012 • TNM staging system • primary tumor size • lymph node involvement • whether the cancer has metastasized LN: lymph node

  5. Drug delivery via the lymphatic vessel Proper axillary lymph node Subiliac lymph node Lymph node (same size as it of human) Visualizing lymph route Develop local administration via lymphatic vessels for Drug Delivery System at T0, T1, T2, N0 stages CAV2012 Mouse model: MXH-10/Mo/lpr/lpr(MXH-10)
