Abstract:
Intravesical instillation therapy is increasingly recognized as one of the most common clinical treatment strategies for bladder cancer. However, the antitumor efficacy of chemotherapy drugs is still limited due to their rapid clearance by periodic urination. To circumvent this issue, a drug-loaded thin film comprising the self-assembly of tannic acid (TA) and ferric ions (Fe3+) was in situ fabricated on the bladder wall in vivo. As expected, the TA@Fe film with adjustable thickness could effectively prolong the residence time of anticancer drugs in the bladder and realize sustained release of anticancer drugs. Together with the antibacterial properties, the TA@Fe film enabled improved chemotherapeutic efficacy. Moreover, the TA@Fe film caused no adverse effects on bladder function, demonstrating the in vivo biocompatibility. In addition, the T2 contrast effect of Fe3+ was employed to real-time monitor the disassembly of the TA@Fe film and the ensuing drug release process by magnetic resonance imaging. We believe that the TA@Fe-based drug delivery platform with enhanced retention in the bladder would be of great potential for treating various bladder diseases. © 2022 American Chemical Society
