Stimulus-responsive nanosystem is a powerful method to improve the bioavailability and reduce the side effects of anticancer agents. In the present study, a customized dual pH-responsive micellar nanoplatform (DOX+LAP-M) based on polycarbonate-doxorubicin conjugate micelles was prepared to co-deliver the chemotherapeutic agent lapatinib for inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis. DOX+LAP-M micelles with spherical morphology had a size of ~112 nm and had an initial negative surface charge, which are favorable characteristics for long-term circulation in the blood. Once the micelles accumulated in tumor tissues, the intrinsic tumor extracellular acidity triggered the charge switch of DOX+LAP-M micelles from -1 to 9 mV, thereby facilitating cell internalization and tumor penetration. Subsequently, the pH-sensitive micellar core accelerated the release of doxorubicin and lapatinib in the acidic intracellular environment. DOX+LAP-M micelles effectively inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of 4T1 cells in vitro; furthermore, the administration of DOX+LAP-M micelles in 4T1 xenograft-bearing mice suppressed solid tumor growth with an inhibitory rate of 90.2% and significantly decreased pulmonary metastatic nodules, without significant systemic toxicity. This multifunctional micellar system has high potential for clinical cancer therapy. Copyright © 2020. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
