Abstract

The development of boron agents with integrated functionality, including biocompatibility, high boron content, and cancer cell targeting, is desired to exploit the therapeutic efficacy of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). Here, we report the therapeutic efficacy of BNCT using a HER-2-targeted antibody-conjugated boron nitride nanotube/β-1,3-glucan complex. The anticancer effect of BNCT using our system was 30-fold that of the clinically available boron agent l-BPA/fructose complex.
