Drug‐Loaded Mesoporous Tantalum Oxide Nanoparticles for Enhanced Synergetic Chemoradiotherapy with Reduced Systemic Toxicity

Abstract: Combining chemotherapy and radiotherapy (chemoradiotherapy) has been widely applied in many clinical practices, showing promises in enhancing therapeutic outcomes. Nontoxic nanocarriers that not only are able to deliver chemotherapeutics into tumors, but could also act as radiosensitizers to enhance radiotherapy would thus be of great interest in the development of chemoradiotherapies. To achieve this aim, herein mesoporous tantalum oxide (mTa O ) nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol (PEG) modification are f… Show more

“…[200] Different from mesoporous silica which although is an ideal drug carrier, by itself has minimal radio-sensitization effect, hollow tantalum oxide nanoshells was developed by our recent work for enhanced chemo-radiotherapy. [81] Such mTa 2 O 5 loaded with DOX could offer a strong synergistic therapeutic effect during chemo-radiotherapy and showed remarkably reduced side effects compared to free DOX, which at the same dose during chemo-radiotherapy appeared to be lethal to animals. [80] Moreover, TaOx nanoshells could bind with Fe 3+ and radiolabelled with 99m Tc via a chelator-free manner for dual-modal MR and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging.…”

“…[78] As a high-Z element, Ta possesses a large X-ray attenuation coefficient comparable to that of gold. [79][80][81] Those TaOx nanomaterials possess large X-ray attenuation ability and thus could act as a radio-sensitizer to deposit more radiation energy into cancer cells to enhance RT via Compton scattering and Auger effect.

“…Up to now, various kinds of nanoparticles formulation of radiosensitive drugs for increasing the efficacy of RT have been designed . For example, based on the effective radiosensitization effect of chemodrug CDDP, Fan et al designed rattle‐structured multifunctional upconversion core/porous silica shell nanotheranostics (UCSNs) to deliver CDDP into tumor cells for achieving chemotherapy/RT synergetic treatment .…”

“…and later their full potential in chemo‐radiotherapy was explored by Chen et al. In this later work, mesoporous Ta 2 O 5 nanocarriers were prepared to encapsulate and deliver DOX in synergistic chemo‐radiotherapy . The Ta 2 O 5 ‐PEG/DOX nanocarriers exhibited an improved therapeutic efficacy under X‐ray irradiation, and also possessed lower toxicity compared to free DOX.…”
