The biopolymeric, biodegradable, injectable liposome-in-gel-paclitaxel (LG-PTX) system was developed for regional delivery of the radiosensitizer paclitaxel (PTX), and its efficacy was evaluated with concurrent fractionated radiation. LG-PTX is composed of nano-sized drug-loaded fluidizing liposomes, which are incorporated into a porous biodegradable gellan hydrogel. This allows enhanced drug permeation while maintaining a localization of the drug depot. LG-PTX had an IC50 of 325±117 nM in B16F10 melanoma cells, and cytotoxicity with concurrent doses of fractionated radiation showed significant increase in apoptotic cells (75%) compared to radiation (39%) or LG-PTX (43%) alone. Peri-tumoral injection in tumor-bearing mice showed PTX localization in the tumor 2 hours after administration, with no drug detected in plasma or other organs. LG-PTX administration with doses of focal radiation (5×3 Gy) significantly reduced tumor volumes compared to control (6.4 times) and radiation alone (1.6 times) and improved animal survival. LG-PTX thus efficiently localizes the drug at the tumor site and synergistically enhances the effect of concurrent radiotherapy. This novel liposome-in-gel system can potentially be used as a platform technology for the delivery of radiosensitizing drugs to enhance the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy.
