Radiation therapy can potentially induce immunogenic cell death, thereby priming anti-tumor adaptive immune responses. However, radiation-induced systemic immune responses are very rare and insufficient to meet clinical needs. Here, we demonstrate a synergetic strategy for boosting radiation-induced immunogenic cell death by constructing gadolinium-hemin based nanoscale coordination polymers to simultaneously perform X-ray deposition and glutathione depletion. Subsequently, immunogenic cell death is induced by sensitized radiation to potentiate checkpoint blockade immunotherapies against primary and metastatic tumors. In conclusion, nanoscale coordination polymers-sensitized radiation therapy exhibits biocompatibility and therapeutic efficacy in preclinical cancer models, and has the potential for further application in cancer radio-immunotherapy.
