The combination of various therapeutic modalities has received considerable attention for improving antitumor performance. Herein, an innovative nanohybrid, namely CaO 2 @FePt-DOX@PDA@CM (CFDPM), was developed for synergistic chemotherapy/chemodynamic therapy/Ca 2+ overloading-mediated amplification of tumor oxidative stress and photothermal enhanced cancer therapy. Camouflage of the 4T1 cell membrane enabled CFDPM to escape the immune surveillance and accumulate in the tumor tissue. Ca 2+ , released from CaO 2 , could lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and facilitate the production of reactive oxygen species to amplify intracellular oxidative stress. Meanwhile, the increase of H 2 O 2 concentration could enhance the efficiency of the chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, the hypoxic condition could be alleviated remarkably, which is attributed to the sufficient O 2 supply by CaO 2 , resulting in the suppression of drug resistance and promotion of the chemotherapeutic effect. The nanohybrids involving Ca 2+ overloading/CDT/chemotherapy could synergistically amplify the tumor oxidative stresses and remarkably aggravate the death of cancer cells. Significantly, the excellent photothermal conversion performance of CFDPM could further promote the tumoricidal effect. The in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that CFDPM could effectively advance the therapeutic efficiency via the cooperation of various therapeutic modalities to optimize their individual virtue, which would open a valuable avenue for effective cancer treatment.
