Abstract
The present invention relates to novel therapeutic and diagnostic arrays. More particularly, the present invention is directed to dendrimer based multifunctional compositions and systems for use in disease diagnosis and therapy (e.g., cancer diagnosis and therapy). The compositions and systems generally comprise two or more separate components for targeting, imaging, sensing, and/or triggering release of a therapeutic or diagnostic material and monitoring the response to therapy of a cell or tissue (e.g., a tumor).
Claims25
A composition comprising a dendrimer complex, said dendrimer complex comprising first and second dendrimers, said first dendrimer comprising a first agent and a first linker and said second dendrimer comprising a second agent and a second linker, wherein said first agent is different than said second agent and wherein said first and second linkers comprise nucleic acid, wherein said first linker is hybridized to said second linker.
