Photoimmunotherapy employs antibody-photosensitizer constructs (photoimmunoconjugates) for targeted cancer ablation through the generation of reactive oxygen species. While this approach enhances cancer cell specificity, it sacrifices cellular uptake. This study addresses this limitation through two strategies with an emphasis on anti-cancer immunogenicity: 1) utilizing fluid shear stress to mediate delivery, and 2) leveraging nanoengineering approaches to maximize photoimmunoconjugate payload. Results reveal that fluid shear stress promotes photosensitizer delivery and anti-tumor immune response while modulating subcellular localization. By shedding light on improved delivery strategies and formulations, this study generates important implications for the clinical implementation of photoimmunotherapy.
