Hypoxia in solid tumors increases their invasiveness and resistance to therapy, presenting a formidable obstacle tumor therapy. The hypoxia prodrug banoxantrone (AQ4N) undergoes conversion into its topoisomerase II inhibitor form AQ4 under hypoxic conditions, which inhibits cells while leaving normal unharmed. Numerous studies have found that AQ4N significantly enhances the effect minimizing toxicity tissues when combined with other drugs or therapeutic approaches. Thus, maximize AQ4N's effectiveness, co-delivery of agents site is paramount, leading development multifunctional multicomponent nanocomposites thereby emerging as promising candidates for combination therapy treatment. However, currently there lack systematic analysis reviews focusing on AQ4N. Herein, this review provides comprehensive retrospect recent advancements nanocomposites. Specifically, we discuss synergistic effects observed chemotherapeutic drugs, radiotherapy, phototherapy, starvation, sonodynamic immunotherapy preclinical models. Moreover, advantages, limitations, future perspectives different are highlighted, providing researchers from diverse fields novel insights

Cancer treatment is challenged by the tumor microenvironment (TME), which promotes drug resistance and cancer cell growth. This review offers a comprehensive innovative perspective on how nanomedicine can modify TME to enhance therapy. Strategies include using nanoparticles improve oxygenation, adjust acidity, alter extracellular matrix, making treatments more effective. Additionally, immune responses activating cells reducing suppression within tumors. By integrating these approaches with existing therapies, such as chemotherapy radiotherapy, show promise in overcoming traditional barriers. The discusses changes effectiveness of itself, creating reciprocal relationship that boosts overall efficacy. We also highlight novel strategies aimed at exploiting TME, leveraging nanoparticle-based for targeted therapy through precise modulation.
