The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of an amphiphilic system comprising chitosan-grafted polylactide and carboxyl-functionalized polylactide acid as a carrier for the controlled release and co-release of two DNA alkylating drugs: doxorubicin and temozolomide. Polylactide and carboxyl-functionalized polylactide acid were obtained through direct melt polycondensation reaction, using methanesulfonic acid as a non-toxic initiator, and subsequently these were grafted to the chitosan backbone through a coupling reaction, utilizing 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide as a condensing agent. ATR-FTIR analysis and conductometric titration confirmed that a reaction between CS and PLA, PLACA2% and PLACA5% occurred. Chitosan-grafted-polylactide and polylactide-citric acid nanoparticles were prepared via the polyelectrolyte complex technique, applying dextran sulphate as a polyanion, and loaded with doxorubicin and temozolomide. The diameter of particles, ζ-potential and their relationship to temperature and pH were analysed in all formulations. Encapsulation, co-encapsulation efficiency and release studies were conducted in different physiological simulated environments and human serum. Results showed the continuous release of drugs without an initial burst in different physiological media.
