Abstract

Anthracycline glycoside antibiotics are complexed with cardiolipin and then encapsulated in liposomes to reduce mammalian cardiac tissue uptake of the anthracycline glycoside and to thereby reduce the deleterious effect of such cardiac tissue uptake. The invention is directed to the composition, preparation and use of the encapsulated complex of anthracycline glycoside.
