Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pacritaxel released from honeycomb-patterned film promoted bleb survival and IOP decrease. The lowest dose of pacritaxel (0.5 µg) was effective at preventing bleb avascularity without compromising filtration. Compared with mitomycin C eyes, bleb became flattened in pacritaxel-treated eyes. In addtion, the release profile of pacritaxel in our honeycomb-patterned film carrier may be appropriate to suppress the major proliferative stage of wound healing.
