Intravesical p21 mRNA-LNP Therapy in Bladder Cancer
2026-08-12
The reference study developed a nonviral tumor suppressor replacement strategy in which chemically modified CDKN1A/p21 mRNA was packaged in lipid nanoparticles for intravesical delivery. Across molecular, cellular, biodistribution, and orthotopic mouse experiments, the approach restored nuclear p21 expression, inhibited bladder tumor growth, and limited systemic exposure, while remaining subject to important preclinical and formulation-specific limitations.
