PEG-b-PLA is less toxic than Cremophor EL, enabling a doubling of paclitaxel dose in clinical trials. We show that PEG-b-PLA micelles act as a 3-in-1 nanocontainer for paclitaxel, 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), and rapamycin for multiple drug solubilization. 3-in-1 PEG-b-PLA micelles were ca. 40 nm in diameter; dissolved paclitaxel, 17-AAG, and rapamycin in water at 9.0 mg/mL; and were stable for 24 h at 25 °C. The half-life for in vitro drug release (t(1/2)) for 3-in-1 PEG-b-PLA micelles was 1-15 h under sink conditions and increased in the order of 17-AAG, paclitaxel, and rapamycin. The t(1/2) values correlated with log P(o/w) values, implicating a diffusion-controlled mechanism for drug release. The IC(50) value of 3-in-1 PEG-b-PLA micelles for MCF-7 and 4T1 breast cancer cell lines was 114 ± 10 and 25 ± 1 nM, respectively; combination index (CI) analysis showed that 3-in-1 PEG-b-PLA micelles exert strong synergy in MCF-7 and 4T1 breast cancer cell lines. Notably, concurrent intravenous (iv) injection of paclitaxel, 17-AAG, and rapamycin using 3-in-1 PEG-b-PLA micelles was well-tolerated by FVB albino mice.
