Radiotherapy (RT) induced abscopal effect has garnered substantial attention, nevertheless, it is rarely observed in clinics, due to the tumor hypoxia-related radioresistance, inadequate immune stimulation, and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Herein, we construct a radiotherapy-immunomodulated nanoplatform (THUNDER), which synergizes with RT and greatly triggers the generation of both hypoxic and normoxic tumor cells-derived tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), resulting in robust abscopal effect and sustained immune memory. THUNDER exhibits prolonged blood circulation and high tumor retention capacity.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a noninvasive cancer treatment modality that involves the administration of photosensitizers and light irradiation. Previously, we established a polycation-containing hematoporphyrin (aHP) formulation that demonstrated superior antitumor efficacy , than the original hematoporphyrin (HP). In this study, we investigated underlining mechanisms of the high antitumor effect of aHP using cell experiments.

Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is an emerging strategy for precise regulation and highly spatiotemporal selectivity. However, this approach faces a significant challenge due to the off-target effect and the immunosuppressive microenvironment.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), especially anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies, have emerged as promising therapeutic options for cervical cancer. However, the efficacy of anti-PD-1 antibody monotherapy is limited. Cryoablation could elicit an anti-tumor immune response, thereby presenting itself as a potential approach to augment the response of ICIs.

Strategies to enhance the anti-tumor immune response of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) at primary tumors and abscopal sites are under intensive investigation. Here we report a metabolizable binary supracluster (BSC) that combines gold nanoclusters as radiosensitizing adjuvants with small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting the immunosuppressive mediator galectin-1 (Gal-1). BSC comprises reversibly crosslinked cationic gold nanoclusters and siRNA complexes in a polymer matrix that biodegrades over weeks, facilitating clearance (90.
