Nanohybrids based on titanate nanotubes (TiONts) were developed to fight prostate cancer by intratumoral (IT) injection, and particular attention was paid to their step-by-step synthesis. TiONts were synthesized by a hydrothermal process. To develop the custom-engineered nanohybrids, the surface of TiONts was coated beforehand with a siloxane (APTES), and coupled with both dithiolated diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-modified gold nanoparticles (Au@DTDTPA NPs) and a heterobifunctional polymer (PEG3000) to significantly improve suspension stability and biocompatibility of TiONts for targeted biomedical applications. The pre-functionalized surface of this scaffold had reactive sites to graft therapeutic agents, such as docetaxel (DTX). This novel combination, aimed at retaining the AuNPs inside the tumor via TiONts, was able to enhance the radiation effect. Nanohybrids have been extensively characterized and were detectable by SPECT/CT imaging through grafted Au@DTDTPA NPs, radiolabeled with 111In. In vitro results showed that TiONts-AuNPs-PEG3000-DTX had a substantial cytotoxic activity on human PC-3 prostate adenocarcinoma cells, unlike initial nanohybrids without DTX (Au@DTDTPA NPs and TiONts-AuNPs-PEG3000). Biodistribution studies demonstrated that these novel nanocarriers, consisting of AuNP- and DTX-grafted TiONts, were retained within the tumor for at least 20 days on mice PC-3 xenografted tumors after IT injection, delaying tumor growth upon irradiation.
