Photodynamic therapy of cancer‐associated infections

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 833-845, July/August 2025.
Pathogens can be involved in tumor initiation, promotion and progression through different mechanisms, and their treatment can prevent new cancer cases, improve outcomes, and revert poor‐prognostic phenotypes. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) successfully treats different types of cancers and infections, and, therefore, has a unique potential to address ...
