Abstract

Trigger happy: Trigger-responsive chain-shattering polymeric therapeutics (CSPTs) were prepared by condensation polymerization of a UV- or hydrogen peroxide-responsive domain and a drug as co-monomers. Drug release can be started and stopped by starting and stopping the trigger treatment. Chemotherapeutic-containing CSPTs showed trigger-responsive in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy.
