Nanomedicines for drug delivery and imaging-guided cancer therapy is a rapidly growing research area. The unique properties of nanomedicines have massive potential in solving longstanding challenges existing drugs, such as poor localization at the tumor site, high doses toxicity, recurrence, immune response. However, inadequate biocompatibility restricts their clinical translation. Therefore, advanced nanomaterials with enhanced therapeutic efficiency are highly desired to fast-track translation nanomedicines.

Abstract Radiotherapy, although clinically effective in immunoactivation, still cannot radio‐functionalize tumor as a potent immunogenetic center. Given that newly found pyroptosis efficiently releases immunogenic damage‐associated molecular patterns, initiating radiotherapeutic may turn vision of radiotherapy‐induced immunity into reality. However, precondition is the absent gasdermin E (GSDME), which essentiates caspase‐3‐mediated pyroptosis, can be well translated cancer cells. Here, an epigenetic strategy to launch radiotherapy introduced. The nanocoordinator (PWE) constructed via metal–phenolic coordination between polyphenolic DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate, EGCG), high‐Z radiosensitizer (W 6+ ), and polyphenol‐modified block copolymer. While recovering GSDME expression by EGCG, PWE cleaves fragmented N‐terminal (pyroptotic key protein) caspase‐3. To examine anti‐tumor immune activities, amplifies immunological effects traditional decreases radiotherapy‐upregulated regulatory T cells, providing new insight radiotherapy.
