To address this, we developed a TME-responsive polymeric micelle co-delivering alpelisib (a pan-PI3K inhibitor) and cobomarsen (a miR-155-5p inhibitor) for targeted therapy. This dual-targeting strategy effectively suppressed PIK3CA-mutated tumor growth and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. These findings reveal the role of MDSC-driven metastatic potential via the exosomal miR-155-5p/SIRT1 axis in HR + breast cancer and present a novel nanotherapeutic approach for precision intervention.
Considering clinical trials targeting PGE2 production largely have focused on the inhibition of Cox1 or Cox2 that showed cardiac toxicity, our data suggest an alternative way for suppressing PGE2 production via the inhibition of miR-155. As the antagomiR of miR-155 (MRG-106) underwent a phase-1 clinical trial, its effect should be considered and analyzed in prostaglandin metabolism in tumor.
