The Sacremento Bee: UC Davis scientist wins grant to develop nanoparticles to fight breast cancer
"What we want to put on these nanoparticles is a combination of two drugs," he said.
The first weakens cancer cells and makes them more susceptible to medication, he said. The second is a classic chemotherapy drug called doxorubicin. "Very effective but also very toxic," he said.

My sister has breast cancer. It's in remission but it's a nasty disease. Anything that improves the treatment is a big advance.
This researcher is thinking outside the box. Hopefully he is onto something good.
