The controlled release of drugs using nanoparticle-based delivery vehicles is a promising strategy to improve the safety and efficacy of chemotherapy. We have developed a simple, scalable, and reproducible strategy to synthesize a drug delivery system by loading the prodrug 6-maleimidocaproyl-hydrazone doxorubicin (DOX-EMCH) into the empty core of virus-like particles (VLPs) derived from Physalis mottle virus (PhMV) via a combination of chemical conjugation to cysteine residues and π–π stacking interactions with the anchored doxorubicin molecule. The DOX-EMCH prodrug features an acid-sensitive hydrazine linker that triggers the release of doxorubicin in the slightly acidic extracellular tumor microenvironment or acidic endosomal or lysosomal compartments following cellular uptake. The VLP external surface was coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to prevent non-specific uptake and improve biocompatibility. The DOX-PhMV-PEG particles were stable in vitro and showed significantly greater efficacy in vivo compared to free doxorubicin in a breast tumor mouse model (using MDA-MB-231 cells and nude mice): 92% of the tumor-bearing mice treated with DOX-PhMV-PEG were completely cured compared to 27% of those treated with free doxorubicin under the same conditions, representing a 3.4-fold improvement. These results lay a foundation for the further development of our biological drug delivery system for a new generation of chemotherapy products. The authors developed a pH-responsive drug delivery system (DDS) based on virus-like particles derived from Physalis mottle virus (PhMV) loaded with 6-maleimidocaproyl-hydrazone doxorubicin (DOX-PhMV-PEG). The DDS demonstrated significantly greater efficacy in vivo compared to free doxorubicin in a breast tumor mouse model: 92% of the tumor-bearing mice treated with DOX-PhMV-PEG were completely cured compared to 27% of those treated with free doxorubicin under the same conditions, representing a 3.4-fold improvement.
