Combinational drug-loaded lipid nanocapsules for the treatment of cancer.
International journal of pharmaceutics(2019)
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of an intravenously administered combinational therapy using lipid nanocapsules (LNCs) as a drug delivery carrier for the treatment of different cancers. Therefore, we encapsulated 6 anticancer drugs within LNCs. Their size was approximately 50 nm. Except for oxaliplatin, their encapsulation efficiency, which was measured by different analytical methods, varied between 75% for SN38 to 100% for regorafenib. The in vitro studies showed a nonsignificant difference between the cytotoxicity of free and encapsulated drugs and a significant decrease in haemolysis by encapsulation in LNCs. Finally, the in vivo experiment showed that a combinational regimen of SN38-LNCs and regorafenib-LNCs abates CT26 murine colorectal cancer growth and increases median survival time.
