In-situ cryo-immune engineering of tumor microenvironment with cold-responsive nanotechnology for cancer immunotherapy

Abstract

Cryosurgery can represent a therapeutic option for breast cancer treatment. Here the authors report a strategy combining cryosurgery with cold-responsive nanoparticles loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug irinotecan and PD-L1-targeting siRNA, inducing anti-tumor immune responses in preclinical breast cancer models.
