The present study aims to design, develop and characterize kNGR (Asn-Gly-Arg) peptide-conjugated lipid–polymer-based nanoparticles for the target-specific delivery of anticancer bioactive(s), i.e., Paclitaxel (PTX). The kNGR-PEG-DSPE conjugate was synthesized and characterized by using spectral analysis. The dual-targeted PLGA–lecithin–PEG core-shell nanoparticles (PLNs-kNGR-NPs) were synthesized using a modified nanoprecipitation process, and their physiological properties were determined. The results support that, compared to other NPs, PLNs-kNGR-NPs are highly cytotoxic, owing to higher apoptosis and intracellular uptake. The significance of rational nanoparticle design for synergistic treatment is shown by the higher tumor volume inhibition percentage rate (59.7%), compared to other designed formulations in Balb/c mice in the HT-1080 tumor-induced model. The overall results indicate that the PLNs-kNGR-NPs-based hybrid lipid–polymer nanoparticles present the highest therapeutic efficacy against solid tumor overexpressing the CD13 receptors.
