Mild photothermal therapy potentiates anti-PD-L1 treatment for immunologically cold tumors via an all-in-one and all-in-control strategy

Mild photothermal therapy can be used to induce a favourable immunological response. In this study, the authors combine a photothermal therapy sensitizer and anti-PD-L1 into a lipid gel and find that, on controlled delivery to tumours, it potentiates anti-PD therapy and boosts anticancer efficacy.
