Synergistic Efficacy of WST11-VTP and P-Selectin-Targeted Nanotherapy in a Preclinical Prostate Cancer Model. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel)) - " SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) mice were engrafted with androgen-sensitive prostate tumor cells (LNCaP-AR) and treated with a combination of VTP and two different drugs linked to fucoidan nanoparticles (Enzalutamide and Paclitaxel). This approach significantly advances beyond existing VTP and nanodrug therapies by improving tumor control, ensuring sustained intra-tumoral drug concentration, and yielding superior oncological outcomes. Our results suggest that this therapy is a potential treatment option for prostate tumors treated with VTP in future clinical trials."

Combination of gemcitabine and local tumor ablation WST-11 vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy displays superior efficacy compared to either monotherapy in a urothelial cancer model (AACR 2025) - P1 | "Assessment of systemic anti-tumor responses using a bilateral tumor model, re-challenge in surviving mice and host immune effect in Rag1-/- (lacking T-cell and B-cell populations) mice bearing MB49 suggests that there is a long-term systemic immune modulation and antitumor activity enforced by the combination of VTP and gemcitabine. Additional analyses by flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry suggests that the combination of gemcitabine and VTP induces both innate and adaptive immune responses."

Selectivity and anti-tumor immune elevation by vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy of mouse orthotopic bladder cancer model. (PubMed, Photochem Photobiol) - "Vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy (VTP) with WST11 is a non-surgical tumor ablation approach that is currently being tested in a phase 3 clinical trial for the treatment of upper tract urothelial cancer...Moreover, VTP therapy prolonged the survival of mice bearing orthotopic tumors compared with the untreated control. These results suggest that VTP can selectively ablate malignant tumors in the bladder and promote a robust anti-tumor response in a mouse model that can further augment the therapeutic outcome."
