Abstract
Nanotechnological interventions for cancer immunotherapy are a rapidly evolving paradigm with immense potential. Self-assembled nanobiomaterials present safer alternatives to their nondegradable counterparts and pose better functionalities in terms of controlled drug delivery and phototherapy to activate immunogenic cell death. In this Review, we discuss several classes of self-assembled nanobiomaterials based on polymers, lipids, peptides, hydrogel, metal organic frameworks, and covalent-organic frameworks with the ability to activate systemic immune response and convert a "cold" immunosuppressive tumor mass to a "hot" antitumor immune cell rich microenvironment. The unique aspects of these materials are underpinned, and their mechanisms of combinatorial immunotherapeutic action are discussed. Future challenges associated with their clinical translation are also highlighted.
