Long-Lasting Proteinaceous Nanoformulation for Tumor Imaging and Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Nanodrugs have attracted increasing interest in drug delivery and disease treatment. However, the cumbersome preparation process and the poor biocompatibility of nanodrugs obstruct their clinical translation. In this study, we utilized a self-assembly strategy to develop a low-toxicity, long-lasting nanodrug for the effective treatment and real-time monitoring of bladder tumors. The accurate self-assembly of compatible raw materials allowed for an encapsulation rate of 43.7% for insoluble erdafitinib. Interestingly, robust therapeutic effects and reduced side effects could be realized simultaneously using this nanodrug, enabling broader scenarios for the clinical application of erdafitinib. Furthermore, the nanodrug exhibited a significantly prolonged in vivo half-life (14.4 h) and
