Abstract
The aim of the present study was mainly to assess the advantage of docetaxel-loaded PEG-albumin nanoparticles (PEG-DANPs) against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) compared with the commercial product of docetaxel (Aisu®) and docetaxel-albumin nanoparticles (DANPs). We made systematic assessments on these three drugs against NSCLC both in vitro and in vivo. Based on our experiments, PEG-DANPs showed a dose- and time-dependent efficacy in the in vitro cytotoxicity studies; the tumors growth and the metastases in the livers of NSCLC-bearing nude mice in vivo were reduced dmarkedly by PEG-DANPs, and the PEG-DANP-treated mice had a minimum of weight loss; furthermore, the mice which were treated with PEG-DANPs can survive longer than the other groups. In conclusion, the PEG-DANPs have the lowest side-effects, and the highest antitumor and metastases activity of the three drugs, and it may provide an alternative to patients with NSCLC.
