Dual drug loaded polypeptide delivery systems for cancer therapy

The present study was aimed to prepare and examine in vitro novel dual-drug loaded delivery systems. Biodegradable nanoparticles based on poly(L-glutamic acid-co-D-phenylalanine) were used as nanocarriers for encapsulation of two drugs from the paclitaxel, irinotecan, and doxorubicin series. The developed delivery systems were characterised with hydrodynamic diameters less than 300 nm (PDI < 0.3). High encapsulation efficiencies (≥75%) were achieved for all single- and dual-drug formulations. The release studies showed faster release at acidic pH, with the release rate decreasing over time. The release patterns of the co-encapsulated forms of substances differed from those of the separately encapsulated drugs, suggesting differences in drug-polymer interactions. The joint action of encapsulated drugs was analysed using the colon cancer cells, both for the dual-drug delivery sytems and a mixture of single-drug formulations. The encapsulated forms of the drug combinations demonstrated comparable efficacy to the free forms, with the encapsulation enhancing solubility of the hydrophobic drug paclitaxel.
