Systems, kits and methods for preparing an injection system and/or treating target lesions with a selective internal radiation therapy which includes a double-barrel syringe loaded with a two-component tissue glue and radioisotope loaded microspheres. The microspheres are loaded into the syringe based on the size of the target location and are administered with a needle or dual-lumen catheter. Dosing regimens for treating breast cancer lesions or surgical beds up to 130 mm in diameter and hepatocellular carcinoma lesions up to 50 mm are included.

The present disclosure provides bioorthogonal compositions for delivering agents in a subject. The disclosure also provides methods of producing the compositions, as well as methods of using the same.

The present invention provides a method for selective delivery of a therapeutic or diagnostic agent to a targeted organ or tissue by implanting a biocompatible solid support in the patient being linked to a first binding agent, and administering a second binding agent to the patient linked to the therapeutic or diagnostic agent, such that the therapeutic or diagnostic agent accumulates at the targeted organ or tissue.

Provided herein are in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulations forming a biocompatible retinal patch comprising at least one nucleophilic compound or monomer unit, at least one electrophilic compound or monomer unit, and optionally a therapeutic agent and/or viscosity enhancer. In some embodiments, the retinal patch at least partially adheres to the site of a retinal tear. Also provided herein are methods of treating retinal detachment by delivering an in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulation to the site of a retinal tear in human eye, wherein the in vivo gelling ophthalmic pre-formulation forms a retinal patch.

The present invention provides peptide hydrogelators capable of forming hydrogels as carriers of active ingredients and acting as sustained or controlled release drug delivery systems.

An injectable depot formulation includes a biocompatible polymer, an organic solvent combined with the biocompatible polymer to form a viscous gel, and a small molecule drug incorporated in the viscous gel such that the formulation exhibits an in vivo release profile having a C.sub.max to C.sub.min ratio of less than 200 and a lag time less than 0.2.

Radioactive hydrogels for the delivery of localized radiotherapy, methods of making the radioactive hydrogels, and methods of using the radioactive hydrogels are disclosed. A radioisotope may be conjugated to a high molecular weight molecule, which may be encapsulated in a microparticle, where the microparticle is then dispersed within a hydrogel. The radioactive hydrogel may prevent leakage of the radioisotope to provide radiotherapy to a surgical margin while minimizing damage to surrounding normal tissue.

The invention relates generally to methods of using a thiol-Michael addition hydrogel for providing intracavitary brachytherapy and/or displacing tissue and organs. The thiol-Michael addition hydrogel may be used as a packing material and an attenuation material for intracavitary brachytherapy applications. The invention also relates generally to a brachytherapy applicator, which may be used in conjunction with the thiol-Michael addition hydrogel and methods thereof. The invention also relates to a kit comprising at least one container containing the precursor materials of the thiol-Michael addition hydrogel.
