摘要：
There is provided a composition comprising microspheres which comprise a water-insoluble, water-swellable polymer and associated with the polymer, in releasable form, a chemotherapeutic agent, for use in the treatment of a pancreatic tumour or cyst, wherein the microspheres, when equilibrated in water at 37°C, comprise at least 40 wt% water based on weight of polymer plus water, wherein the polymer is anionically charged at pH7 and the chemotherapeutic agent is cationically charged and electrostatically associated with the polymer. Also provided are methods of treating pancreatic tumours or cysts using this composition.
