This is precisely what I want to do with lomustina. Considering that the usual doses are 110-130 mg x m2. In my mother's case it would be a 143/169 mg dose of lomustine. Using the dose that I have thought of 60 mg (30mg + 30mg) dissolved in empty liposomes with a small mini-mixer.
I trust my friend Pedro González's liposomes for encapsulation and on the other hand I could also use chloroquine to "saturate macrophages".
The efficacy should be greatly amplified with far fewer side effects. I will use as a prevention a dose of antiemetic like ondansetron.
I would appreciate any opinion on my ideas as well as any important information that I am missing.
Kind regards
Looks good, Manuel!
