Abstract
Photothermal therapy holds great promise for cancer treatment due to its effective tumor ablation and minimal invasiveness. Herein a new class of biodegradable photothermal agents with effective adsorption in both near-infrared-I (NIR-I) and NIR-II windows is reported for deep tumor therapy. As demonstrated in a deep-seated ovarian cancer model, photothermal therapy using 1064 nm irradiation effectively inhibits tumor progression and prolongs survival spans. This work provides a new design of photothermal agents toward a more effective therapy of tumors.
