Comprehensive Summary The development of photodynamic therapy (PDT), from its initial discovery effects to current use in various medical conditions, is a testament therapeutic potential. Recent breakthroughs nanotechnology have significantly enhanced the effectiveness PDT. Typical nanomaterials (NMs), including metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic (COFs), and nanozymes been introduced enhance efficacy because they can delivery PSs, effectively overcome insufficient targeting specificity, limited tissue penetration depth, hypoxic microenvironments, thereby amplifying efficacy. However, clinical application these NMs PDT faces several challenges, concerns regarding biocompatibility, long‐term biosafety, economic feasibility. To further advance PDT, researchers should focus on designing improve outcomes, exploring combination therapies with conducting translational trials validate safety novel approaches. This review summarizes recent progress based NMs, especially MOFs, COFs their disease treatment. We aim provide guidance for future research practice advancing NMs‐enhanced paving way more effective strategies. Key Scientists

Abstract Despite improvements in cancer survival rates, metastatic and surgery‐resistant cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, remain challenging, with poor prognoses limited treatment options. Enhancing drug bioavailability tumors, while minimizing off‐target effects, is crucial. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged promising delivery vehicles owing to their high loading capacity, biocompatibility, functional tunability. However, the vast chemical diversity of MOFs complicates rational design biocompatible materials. This study employed machine learning molecular simulations identify suitable for encapsulating gemcitabine, paclitaxel, SN‐38, identified PCN‐222 an optimal candidate. Following loading, MOF formulations are improved colloidal stability biocompatibility. In vitro studies on cell lines shown cellular internalization, delayed release. Long‐term tests demonstrated a consistent performance over 12 months. vivo tumor‐bearing mice revealed that paclitaxel‐loaded PCN‐222, particularly hydrogel local administration, significantly reduced spread tumor growth compared free drug. These findings underscore potential effective system hard‐to‐treat cancers.
