Abstract
Lipid-based carriers are provided herein that have a lamellar lipid component composed of an etherlipid and a complementarily shaped lipid. This novel combination of lipids allows for the incorporation of etherlipids in the carriers at higher concentrations than would otherwise be possible. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the carriers can be used therapeutically, for example, in the treatment of cancers.
