Liposomes can be designed to release an entrapped drug preferentially at temperatures attainable by mild local hyperthermia. In a test system in vitro, protein synthesis by Escherichia coli is inhibited and killing of the cells is enhanced by heating neomycin-containing liposomes to their phase transition temperature to maximize drug release. In the presence of serum the ratio of release at 44.degree. C to that at 37.degree. C can be made greater than 100:1, suggesting possible applications in the treatment of tumors or local infection.
