� Develop activity that will lead to the formationof long term research collaboration withindustry (e.g. initiation by STREP and IP in the7th Framework Program of EC followed byindustry supported research)
� Form an expertise reference point forindustry, research institutes and society
Strategic Goals

Scientific General Goals (1)
Development of new multifunctional targeted drugdelivery systems:
� Develop innovative nanoparticles and nanocapsules asdrug carrier systems for new drugs
� Examine novel approaches for enhancing the ability topass the cell/tissue barriers (mucosal lining, air-bloodbarrier of the human lung, blood-brain barrier)
� Explore novel targeting strategies (ppreferablycombined with bioimaging capacity of the targetedareas)

Scientific General Goals (2)
� Investigate ways for enhanced uptake of carriersfor intracellular targets.
� Development and validation of in-vitro modelsmimicking the in-vivo characteristics of human
tissues and organs for the examination of druguptake and toxicity aiming to limit in-vivo animaltesting.
� Theranostics (diagnostics & therapeutics) ²Integration of fast diagnostic devices and drugtherapy involving a feedback loop to monitor andimprove drug efficiency and to minimize sideeffects (individual therapy).

Advantages of nanoparticles as drug carriers
Large surface-to-volume ratio resultingenhanced interaction sites
Surface functionalization for targeting
Suitable encapsulation
Release drugs in controlled manner
More efficient uptake by cells

Drug delivery by implantable nano/microdevices (semi implantable)
Development of 'smart' systems for the release oftherapeutic agents by devices placed at appropriatesites:
Concentration of therapeutic action exclusively orpredominantly at a desired target site (targeting)
Avoidance of barriers to the penetration therebyincrease the efficacy of the therapeutic action

Advantages of local drug release strategies
over systhemic drug therapy
� Lower doses required
� Greater control over toxicity and bioavailability of
dose� Extended duration of release
� Possibilities to combine local and systemic drugswith different kinetics
� Controlled release directly to site� Avoidance of systemic drug exposure

Limitations� Fully implantable devices are restricted in the
amount of drug to be released
� The requirement of surgical procedure forimplantation
� Biofouling/biocompatibility

Intersection ProjectsDuring the last annual meeting of N2L in Sitges (Barcellona)March 2006, the intersection on implantable drug deliverysystems was discussed. The need of targeting on specificclinically oriented goals was discussed in a forum consistingof about 20 participants. In view of this discussion andtaking into consideration the priorities of research in the
area of drug delivery in the field of nanomedicine it hasbeen decided to concentrate at present on two specificclinically oriented intersection topics:
Diabetes
Cancer therapy
More details on these two intersection projects are availableon the conference website.
