Cisplatin or cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) belongs to a family of platinum-containing complexes
that are used clinically to treat cancer. It is regarded as one of the most effective modern cytotoxic agents
and is approved in the treatment of bladder, ovarian, testicular, cervical, head and neck, and nonsmall cell
lung cancer. However, its administration is hindered by its nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity and myelo toxicity.
Remarkable potentials of liposomes have led to attract numerous attentions in cancer therapy and
consequently liposomes were the first nanoparticles to make the transition from laboratory to clinic in
medical applications. The first liposomal formulation of cisplatin, to be evaluated clinically was SPI-077 did
not enhance clinical efficacy, possibly due to limited cisplatin release from the formulation localized within
the tumor. The base formulation of phosphatidylcholine: phosphatidylglycerol: cholesterol was altered in the

phospholipid content to influence membrane fluidity and thereby affecting drug circulation
lifetime and drug retention. Quiet recent liposomal formulation of cisplatin, lipoplatin, tested in full scale of
pre-, clinical trials, as documented in the literature, has proved to be less toxic than cisplatin and that it
produces tumor reduction, because of the negligible toxicity and because it is equal if not superior to
cisplatin with regard to response rate. The aim of the scientific-research work was to reveal and analyze the
possibilities of using liposomal cisplatin in skin cancer treatment. The results showed that lipoplatin induced
apoptosis and the combination of lipoplatin with doxorubicin or abraxane demonstrated a synergistic effect,
whereas the combination of lipoplatin with docetaxel or paclitaxel was less effective or at best additive.
