Description
Magnetic targeting was used for melanoma treatment with magnetofullerenosomes. After their intravenous administration, a permanent magnet was attached to the surface of B16 tumors in C57 mice for 24 h, followed by irradiation with an infrared laser pulse and subsequent illumination with a 776 nm diode laser for conventional photodynamic treatment. Tumor response was substantially better than that obtained with either treatment alone
