Globally, one in six deaths is reported due to cancer suggesting the critical need for development of advanced treatment regimens. In this study, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) were prepared and appended with polyethylene glycol (PEGylated) galactose and a multikinase inhibitor sorafenib (SRFB) was used as chemotherapeutic drug, for treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The nanoparticles were evaluated for in-vitro and invivo performances to showcase the targeting efficiency and therapeutic benefits of the sorafenib loaded ligand conjugated nanoparticles (GAL-SSLN). When compared with SRFB or Sorafenib loaded SLN, GAL-SSLN showed superior cytotoxicity and apoptosis in HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma cells). In addition, in-vivo pharmacokinetics and real time biodistribution studies in BALB/c mice showed that the surface conjugation of nanoparticles with galactose resulted in better pharmacokinetic performance and targeted delivery of the nanoparticles to liver. Results indicated that GAL-SSLN showed promising attributes in terms of targeting sorafenib to liver and therapeutic efficacy.
