ABSTRACT Purpose The goal of this study was to develop chemotherapeutic drug-loaded photoactivable stealth polymer-coated silica based- mesoporous titania nanoplatforms for enhanced antitumor activity. Methods Both in vitro and in vivo models of solvothermal treated photoactivable nanoplatforms were evaluated for efficient chemo-photothermal activity. A versatile nanocomposite that combined silica based- mesoporous titania nanocarriers (SMTN) with the promising photoactivable agent, graphene oxide (G) modified with a stealth polymer (P) was fabricated to deliver chemotherapeutic agent, imatinib (I), (referred as SMTN@IG-P) for near-infrared (NIR)-triggered drug delivery and enhanced chemo-photothermal therapy. Results The fabricated S-MTN@IG-P nanoplatform showed higher drug loading (~20%) and increased drug release (~60%) in response to light in acidic condition (pH 5.0). As prepared nanoplatform significantly converted NIR light into thermal energy (43.2°C) to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The pronounced cytotoxic effect was seen in both colon cancer cells (HCT-116 and HT-29) that was mediated Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (https://doi.org/10.1007/s11095-020-02900-1) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users. * Chul Soon Yong [email protected] * Jong Oh Kim [email protected] 1

through the chemotherapeutic effect of imatinib and the photothermal and ROS generation effects of graphene oxide. In vivo study also showed that S-MTN@IG-P could significantly accumulate into the tumor area and suppress the tumor growth under NIR irradiation without any biocompatibility issues. Conclusion Cumulatively, the above results showed promising effects of S-MTN@IG-P for effective chemophototherapy of colon cancer.

INTRODUCTION Photothermal therapy (PTT) employs near-infrared (NIR) light-absorbing nanomaterials to produce thermal energy from optical energy, which leads to the ablation of cancer cells; it has received considerable attention in nanomedicine (1,2). PTT uses external laser irradiation with a modifiable dosage that permits precise targeting at the tumoral sit
