Methods for improving the efficiency of electroporation protocols as well as methods to enhance the permeabilized state, in order to improve the intracellular delivery of therapeutic substances, involve the use of at least one agent which is capable of prolonging the permeability of the cell membranes in the tissue exposed to an electroporation-inducing electrical field.

Methods for prolonging cell membrane permeability

Electrodes and electrode array apparatus and systems for in vivo delivery of electrical waveforms rendering therapeutic benefit to the patient by utilizing an electrode array having at least three electrodes disposed so as to form an isosceles triangle in a plane intersecting the electrodes and electrical signal generating means operatively connected to the electrodes for delivering electrical waveforms to said electrodes and generating electroporation-inducing electrical fields between the electrodes

Electrodes and electrode arrays for generating electroporation inducing electrical fields

A method for delivering a therapeutic agent to a predetermined location in a host is disclosed, wherein a liposome-encapsulated therapeutic agent is administered to the host, and an electrical field which encompasses a predetermined region within the host is established, such that as the liposome-encapsulated agent is exposed to the electrical field the release of the agent from the liposome to the predetermined region is enhanced.

Drug delivery system and method

Electrodes and electrode array apparatus and systems for in vivo delivery of electrical waveforms rendering therapeutic benefit to the patient by utilizing an electrode array having at least three individually addressable electrodes disposed so as to form a triangle in a plane intersecting the electrodes and an electrical signal generating device operatively connected to the electrodes for delivering electrical waveforms to said electrodes and generating electroporation-inducing electrical fields between the electrodes.
