Cancer, the second major cause of death after cardiovascular disease has been reported to have resulted in over 10 million deaths worldwide per year, on average. Resistance therapeutic interventions is a definitive characteristic cancer, where acquired resistance become challenge that significantly reduced anti-tumor efficiency cancer therapy. The tumor microenvironment (TME) heavily responsible for these cell-targeted drug delivery system challenges due its abundant physiological and pathological barriers impair tumoral penetration distribution nanotherapeutics. However, unique TME characteristics also make an attractive target focus intense research development antitumor nanomedicine strategies can directly or modulate it.

Abstract In situ vaccination is a desirable strategy for cancer immunotherapy due to its convenience and capacity target tumor antigens. Here, an in nanovaccine based on cationic peptide with cholesterol‐modified, DP7‐C, rationally designed, developed that easy preparate. The includes cocktail small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) immunologic adjuvant CpG ODNs, has synergistic effect the treatment. This can induce cell death, promote antigen presentation relieve immune suppression microenvironment (TME). Moreover, this administered CT26 (hot) B16F10 (cold) model mice, which it targeted primary tumors induced systemic antitumor immunity inhibit metastasis. It validated convert cold into hot tumors. Furthermore, increased response anti‐PD‐1 therapy by modulating TME both CT26‐ B16F10‐tumor‐bearing mice. siRNA cocktail/CpG ODN/self‐assembling simple universal tool effectively generate specific antigens be combined immuno‐oncology agents enhance activity. versatile methodology provides alternative approach developing nanovaccines.

Autoimmune diseases and malignant tumors are the two hotspots difficulties that currently being studied concerned by medical field. The use of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors improves prognosis advanced tumors, but excessive immune responses can also induce immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Due to this concern, many clinical trials exclude cancer patients with preexisting autoimmune disease (AID). This review outlines possible mechanisms irAE, discusses safety efficacy in AID, emphasizes importance early recognition, continuous monitoring, multidisciplinary cooperation prevention management AID.

The emergence of cancer immunotherapies, notably immune checkpoint inhibitors, has revolutionized anti-cancer treatments. These treatments, however, have been reported to be effective in a limited range cancers and cause immune-related adverse effects. Thus, for broader applicability enhanced responsiveness solid tumor immunotherapy, immunomodulation the microenvironment is crucial. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) implicated reducing immunotherapy by promoting M2-type differentiation macrophages facilitating cell metastasis. In this study, we developed macrophage membrane-coated nanoparticles loaded with TGF-βR1 kinase inhibitor, SD-208 (M[Formula: see text]-SDNP).
