Generic synthesis of small-sized hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles for oxygen-independent X-ray-activated synergistic therapy

A common failure of many cancer treatments is attributed to the resistance imparted by tumour hypoxia. Here, the authors report on the generic synthesis of small-sized hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles which are designed for oxygen-independent X-ray-activated synergistic therapy.
