ABSTRACT:
Methods for encapsulating ionizable antineoplastic agents in liposomes using transmembrane potentials are provided. Trapping efficiencies approaching 100% and rapid loading are readily achieved. Dehydration protocols which allow liposomes to be conveniently used in the administration of antineoplastic agents in a clinical setting are also provided. In accordance with other aspects of the invention, transmembrane potentials are used to reduce the rate of release of ionizable drugs from liposomes.
