7 Examples for drug delivery by Polycefin variants Primary breast cancer Brain metastases Primary HER2-Positive Breast ancer Metastatic HER2-Positive Breast ancer 47% survival rate improvement 100 Survival % Primary Triple Negative Breast ancer 100 Metastatic Triple Negative Breast ancer 79% survival rate improvement Survival % Days

8 Replacement of antibody by affinity peptide: Pro and ontra Pro Multiple peptides per conjugate Robust structure Smallsize for slender shape of polymeric nanoconjugate Increased diffusibility Deep tissue penetration Reduced immunogenicity Humanization not required Possibility of multivalency hemical fabrication ontra Less affinity to bind to target Absence of Fc and biological activity Less passive tissue targeting (EPR) Low Stability/reduced longevity in plasma Possibility of unscheduled side reactions Tendency for aggregation Easy packaging and delivery. Decreased overall MW of nanodrugandless injectable drug volumen

11 Fluorescence Imaging of Glioblastoma-Nude Mouse Model Tumor PMLSA-Angiopep-2: P/PEG2000-Angiopep(2%)/AlexaFluor680

12 Specific problem with affinity peptides: Self-association and aggregation because of: Electrostatic complementation Lipophilic amino acids
