Summary: Immunotherapy is a promising treatment for cancer, but its application is limited due to the suppression of tumor microenvironment and immune-related adverse events. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has been shown to effectively activate antitumor immunity and kill tumor cells. Various SDT therapies alone or in combination with other treatments have been developed to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) and enhance immunotherapy. This paper provides an overview of the research progress in SDT and nanotechnology, discusses the strategies involving SDT alone, SDT-based synergistic induction of antitumor immunity, and SDT-based immunotherapy for multimodal immunotherapy. The prospects and challenges of SDT-based therapies in cancer immunotherapy are also discussed.

Summary: Research aims to improve the immune response of radiation therapy (RT) by reshaping the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. A nanocomposite called UMP, constructed with core-shell UiO@Mn3O4, is used to reshape the TME and enhance immunogenic RT, inducing strong immunogenic cell death. This study is significant for TME reshaping and the development of cancer nanomedicine.

Summary: This study reports the fabrication of two-dimensional (2D) nanosonosensitizers/nanocatalysts for in situ generation of nanosonosensitizers, which respond to the tumor microenvironment. The nanosonosensitizers showed enhanced sonodynamic therapy (SDT) efficacy due to in situ generation of TiO2 nanosonosensitizers and enhanced ROS production. The combination of SDT and chemodynamic therapy demonstrated synergistic therapeutic effects both in vitro and in vivo.

Summary: The construction of a smart therapeutic nanoplatform consisting of TiO2@Pt/GOx (TPG) allows for efficient sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and starvation therapy (ST), which lead to systemic tumor suppression and hypoxia alleviation in the tumor microenvironment. The optimized energy structure of TPG enables rapid generation of singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radicals. The accumulation of reactive oxygen species and glucose depletion facilitated by TPG result in oxidative damage and energy exhaustion of cancer cells, amplified by Pt-catalyzed oxygen self-supply. The combinatorial therapy also triggers immunogenetic cell death and subsequent suppression of distant tumors and metastasis through antitumor immunity.

Summary: The clinical success of immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of metastatic cancer has been limited in pretreated metastatic breast cancer due to low immunogenicity and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. In this study, nanoliposomes were synthesized to deliver diclofenac and Mn (5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)porphyrin) Cl to overcome these challenges. The results showed that this approach improved the antitumor effect of anti-PD1-based immunotherapy by activating T cells, inactivating regulatory T cells, and regulating immune cytokine levels.
