Development of a red-shifted photosensitizer for near-infrared photoimmunotherapy of cancer

Near-infrared photoimmunotherapy (NIR-PIT) is a recently described method for cancer treatment that utilizes an antibody-conjugated phthalocyanine photosensitizer and NIR light. In NIR-PIT, light of 690 nm wavelength is used to activate a photosensitizer, IR700, while longer-wavelength light penetra...
