Nanomedicines have shown great promise in increasing the efficacy and preventing adverse effects of drugs for bladder cancer. Here we sought to examine the effect of chemo-photothermal therapy on an orthotopic mouse model of superficial bladder cancer. Doxorubicin (DOX) was encapsulated in CS/PNIPAAm@SWCNTs nanoparticles. The biodistribution and antitumor effects of DOX-loaded nanoparticles were analyzed. DOX-loaded nanoparticles were accumulated in tumor cells upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation and exhibited strong antitumor activity in mice bearing orthotopic bladder tumors. In addition, NIR-induced hyperthermia enhanced the permeability of tumor blood vessels, which presumably accounted for specific targeting of the nano medicines to tumors. These results suggest that NIR-guided thermal responsive nanomedicines are potentially applicable for chemo-photothermal therapy against orthotopic bladder tumors.
