Conventional cancer treatments often have complications and serious side effects, with limited improvements in 5-year survival quality of life. Photothermal therapy (PTT) employs materials that convert light to heat when exposed near-infrared raise the temperature tumor site directly ablate cells, induce immunogenic cell death, improve microenvironment. This has several benefits, including minimal invasiveness, high efficacy, reduced robust targeting capabilities. Beyond just photothermal conversion materials, nanoplatforms significantly contribute PTT by supplying effective bolstering amplify anti-tumor effects. However, effects alone are ultimately need be combined other therapies. narrative review describes recent progress chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy, immunotherapy, gene gas chemodynamic photoacoustic imaging, starvation multimodal therapy. Studies shown combining can reduce overcome drug resistance. Despite encouraging results, challenges such as optimizing treatment protocols, addressing heterogeneity, overcoming biological barriers remain. paper highlights potential for personalized, approaches outcomes.
