Application Number:11/880,314
Patent Claims:1. A method of treating a cancer disease in an individual, comprising administering to the individual an effective amount of a composition comprising nanoparticles comprising 17-AAG and an albumin, wherein the nanoparticles comprise 17-AAG coated with the albumin.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the cancer is lung cancer.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the 17-AAG is administered intravenously.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the albumin is human serum albumin.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the average diameter of the nanoparticles in the composition is no greater than 200 nm.

6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the weight ratio of the albumin to 17-AAG in the composition is less than 18:1.

7. The method according to claim 4, wherein the average diameter of the nanoparticles in the composition is no greater than 200 nm.

8. The method according to claim 7, wherein the weight ratio of the albumin to 17-AAG in the composition is less than 18:1.

9. The method according to claim 1, wherein the composition does not induce significant side effects.

10. The method according to claim 5, wherein the average diameter of the nanoparticles in the composition is no greater than 100 nm.

11. The method according to claim 6, wherein the weight ratio of the albumin to 17-AAG in the composition is about 3:1 to about 12:1.
