Camptothecin (CPT) is a distinguished anticancer drug that effectively works on various cancers particularly colon cancer. Camptothecin is naturally occurring alkaloid that has significant amount of anti-tumor activity. However, poor solubility and instability of CPT has greatly restricted its chemotherapeutic value. Thus, various nanocarriers are continuously being formulated and designed to enhance the delivery, solubility, stability and bioavailability of CPT. As such, in the present study, we studied and determined the fabrication of novel magnetic nanocarrier by the combination of ß-Cyclodextrin-EDTA-Fe3O4 magnet ic nanoparticle(CEF) conjugated with CPT. This nanocompound CPT-CEF were synthesized with the objective to enhance CPT’s stability, bioavailability and subsequently improve its therapeutic value through the use of nanocarrier (CEF).Both β-Cyclodextrin and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticle are increasingly utilized in pharmaceutical application due to its promising therapeutic value. In this study, this hybrid nanocarrier was comprehensively characterized by NMR spectrometers and scanning electron microscopy. Particle size analysis, zeta potential measurements, drug loading efficiency and in-vitro drug release study was also performed to characterize CPT-CEF. The magnetic nanocarrier exhibited decent improvement in the stability of CPT encapsulated nanocarrier. Additionally in vitro drug release study exhibited the ability of CPT-CEF to solubilize in both acidic and neutral environment. The ability of CPT-CEF to reflect on the anticancer activity of encapsulated CPT through the induction of apoptosis in HT29 colon cancer cells was also evaluated.
