Promotion of triple negative breast cancer immunotherapy by combining bioactive radicals with immune checkpoint blockade

-001@lipo nano-system triggered by irradiation potently improves the efficacy of immunotherapy by introducing strong cytotoxic RNS, which not only enriches the toolbox of ICD inducer but also provides a strategy of treatment for immune deficient tumor. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study introduces a nano-system that leverages ozone and RRx-001 in the presence of X-ray irradiation to generate reactive nitrogen species, enhancing immunogenic cell death and promoting T-lymphocyte infiltration in triple-negative breast cancer, addressing a significant unmet need in the field. The scientific contribution is the development of a clinically translatable nano-system that not only induces ICD but also reshapes the tumor microenvironment, which is expected to have a profound impact on the readership in pharmaceutics, material science, and nano-bio interaction, particularly for those interested in advanced immune therapy approaches.
