Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a particulate anticancer agent, an anticancer composition including the particulate (nanoparticle) and to provide a method for using the particulate. SOLUTION: The invention provides dispersible particulates consisting substantially of a crystalline anticancer agent having a surface modifier adsorbed on the surface thereof in an amount sufficient for maintaining an effective mean particle size of less than about 1,000 nm. The anticancer composition comprising the particulates exhibits reduced toxicity and/or enhanced efficacy and can be administered by injection. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
