Abstract
The size of liposomal drugs has been demonstrated to strongly correlate with their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. While the microfluidic method successfully achieves the production of liposomes with well-controlled sizes across various buffer/lipid flow rate ratio (FRR) settings, any adjustments to the FRR inevitably influence the concentration, encapsulation efficiency (EE), and stability of liposomal drugs. Here we describe a controllable cavitation-on-a-chip (CCC) strategy that facilitates the precise regulation of liposomal drug size at any desired FRR. The CCC-enabled size-specific liposomes exhibited striking differences in uptake and biodistribution behaviors, thereby demonstrating distinct antitumor efficacy in both tumor-bearing animal and melanoma patient-derived organoid (PDO) models. Intriguingly, as the liposome size decreased to approximately 80 nm, the preferential accumulation of liposomal drugs in the liver transitioned to a predominant enrichment in the kidneys. These findings underscore the considerable potential of our CCC approach in influencing the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of liposomal nanomedicines.
