An Efficient Fabrication Approach for Multi-Cancer Responsive Chemoimmuno Co-Delivery Nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death, with breast, liver, and pancreatic cancers significantly contributing to this burden. Traditional treatments face issues including dose-limiting toxicity, drug resistance, and limited efficacy. Combining therapeutic agents can enhance effectiveness and reduce toxicity, but separate administration often leads to inefficiencies due to differing pharmacokinetics and biodistribution. Co-formulating hydrophobic chemotherapeutics such as paclitaxel (PTX) and hydrophilic immunologic agents such as polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (Poly IC) is particularly challenging due to their distinct physicochemical properties. This study presents a novel and efficient approach for the co-delivery of PTX and Poly IC using chitosa
