Nanogel-Incorporated Injectable Hydrogel for Synergistic Therapy Based on Sequential Local Delivery of Combretastatin-A4 Phosphate (CA4P) and Doxorubicin (DOX)
Drug
combination therapies employing dual-drug delivery systems
offer an effective approach to reduce disadvantages of single-drug
therapy, such as high dose and easy generation of drug resistance.
Herein, a dual-drug delivery system based on nanogel-incorporated
injectable hydrogel (NHG) was designed for sequential local delivery
of combretastatin-A4 phosphate (CA4P) and doxorubicin (DOX) for antiangiogenesis
and anticancer combination therapy. The injectable hydrogel was prepared
for loading and quick release of hydrophilic drug CA4P, while the
pH and redox stimuli-responsive nanohydrogels were incorporated into
the injectable hydrogel by pH-responsive boronate ester bond for sustained
long-term DOX delivery. The dual-drug-loaded NHG system released CA4P
and DOX sequentially and exhibited high inhibitory activities on the
cancer cell proliferation in vitro. It displayed superior therapeutic
efficacy in vivo with only one single injection. Immunohistochemistry
analyses suggested a synergistic therapeutic effect through tumor
vascular collapse caused by CA4P and tumor cell apoptosis induced
by DOX. The combination therapy of antiangiogenic and cytotoxic drugs
using NHG delivery system offers a promising approach for improved
cancer therapeutic efficacy. The nanogel-embedded injectable hydrogel
can be employed as a universal drug carrier for local dual-drug delivery
with sequential release behaviors by simple injection
