Combined Photothermal and mTOR‐Targeted Therapy Overcomes Immune Evasion and Enhances Checkpoint Blockade Efficacy in Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science
Triple‐negative breast cancer, a representative immune “cold” tumor, resists immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). A promising strategy to overcome this limitation involves combining photothermal therapy (PTT) with ICB.
