In 2020, nearly 20 million peoples got cancer and nearly 10 million peoples died of cancer, indicating the current therapies do not meet the cancer treatment and cancer remains a great threat to human health and life. New therapies are still in urgent demand. In a recent study, we developed a new effective cancer therapy, gene-interfered ferroptosis therapy (GIFT), by combining cancer cell-specific knockdown of two iron efflux genes (FPN and LCN2) with iron nanoparticles (FeNPs). GIFT shows wide antitumor activity, high cancer specificity, certain cancer eradication potential, and biosafety. To further improve the therapy, we here develop an updated GIFT named as Ferroptosis ASsassinates Tumor (FAST) by knocking down five additional ferroptosis-resistance genes (FSP1, FTH1, GPX4, SLC7A11, NRF2). As a result, we found that FAST showed more significant antitumor activity than GIFT. Especially, FAST eradicated three different types of tumors (leukemia, colon cancer and lung metastatic melanoma) from over 50 percent of cancer mice, making the mice to survive up to 250 days without tumor relapse. FAST also significantly inhibited and prevented growth of spontaneous breast cancer and improved survival in mice. Additionally, FAST showed high pan-antitumor efficacy, high cancer specificity, and in vivo safety.

Abstract Integration of the unique advantages of the fields of drug discovery and drug delivery is invaluable for the advancement of drug development. Here we propose a self-delivering one-component new-chemical-entity nanomedicine (ONN) strategy to improve cancer therapy through incorporation of the self-assembly principle into drug design. A lysosomotropic detergent (MSDH) and an autophagy inhibitor (Lys05) are hybridised to develop bisaminoquinoline derivatives that can intrinsically form nanoassemblies. The selected BAQ12 and BAQ13 ONNs are highly effective in inducing lysosomal disruption, lysosomal dysfunction and autophagy blockade and exhibit 30-fold higher antiproliferative activity than hydroxychloroquine used in clinical trials. These single-drug nanoparticles demonstrate excellent pharmacokinetic and toxicological profiles and dramatic antitumour efficacy in vivo. In addition, they are able to encapsulate and deliver additional drugs to tumour sites and are thus promising agents for autophagy inhibition-based combination therapy. Given their transdisciplinary advantages, these BAQ ONNs have enormous potential to improve cancer therapy.

We previously reported the synthesis of three DOX conjugates that represented different targeting vehicles and showed them to have antitumor activity bothin vitroandin vivo. However, the relationships between the pharmacokinetics of these DOX conjugates and their chemical structures were not characterized. In the current study, free DOX derived from each of the conjugates was found at low levels in the rat circulatory system, with conjugated DOX being the major form. The two polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugates slowly released DOX, andt1/2βfor total DOX from DOX-LNA, PEG-ami-DOX, and PEG-hyd-DOX was 5.79, 10.22, and 15.18 h, respectively. All three conjugates also deposited less DOX into normal organs than did an equivalent dose of free DOX, and theCmaxvalue of free DOX released by DOX- LNA, PEG-ami-DOX, and PEG-hyd-DOX was 32.5, 9.5, and 4.7 μg/g, respectively. Among the conjugates, the compound with an acid-labile bond between PEG and DOX exhibited the lowest free DOX deposition in healthy tissues, which should decrease the systemic toxicity of free DOX while allowing for tumor targeting by PEG.
