Abstract
To overcome the hypoxia barrier in tumor therapy, a hypoxia-activated prodrug of docetaxel (DTX-PNB) was synthesized and self-assembled with indocyanine green (ICG), forming a combination nanomedicine ISDNN. With the guidance of molecular dynamic simulation, the ISDNN construction could be accurately controlled, achieving uniform size distribution and high drug loading up to 90%. Within the hypoxic tumor environment, ISDNN exerted ICG-mediated photodynamic therapy and aggravated hypoxia to boost DTX-PNB activation for chemotherapy, enabling enhanced antitumor efficacy.
