Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most aggressive malignancy of the biliary tract cancer, and there is a lack of effective treatment. Here, we developed a nanoparticle platform (8P4 NP) that can deliver THZ1, a cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) inhibitor, to treat GBC. Analysis of datasets demonstrated that CDK7 was positively correlated with poor prognosis. CDK7 inhibition suppressed cell proliferation, induced apoptosis, and caused cell cycle block in GBC cells. THZ1 downregulated CDK7-mediated phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), resulting in a significant downregulation of transcriptional programs, with a preferential repression of oncogenic transcription factors. To improve the tumor targeting efficiency of THZ1, 8P4 NPs were prepared and assembled with THZ1 to form THZ1@8P4 NPs. Compared with free THZ1, THZ1@8P4 NPs showed more advantages in prolonging blood circulation, escaping from lysosomes and increasing cellular uptake. Importantly, THZ1@8P4 NPs demonstrated a more significant inhibition effect on GBC cells than free THZ1 . In addition, THZ1@8P4 NPs could efficiently deliver THZ1 to tumor sites in a patient-derived xenograft model of early recurrence, leading to tumor regression and transcriptional inhibition with minimal toxicity. In summary, we conclude that THZ1@8P4 NPs provide a potent therapeutic strategy that targets CDK7-mediated transcriptional addiction in GBC.
