Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) benefiting from its intrinsic merits, such as noninvasiveness and deep tissue penetrability, is receiving increasing considerable attention in reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based tumor treatment. However, current sonosensitizers usually suffer from low tumor lesion accumulation, insufficient ROS generation efficiency under ultrasound, and non-biodegradability, which seriously impede the therapeutic outcomes. Additionally, it is difficult that SDT alone can completely eradicate tumors because of the complex and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, we simultaneously employ sonosensitive porphyrin building blocks and glutathione (GSH)-responsive disulfide bonds to construct a novel degradable multifunctional porphyrin-based hollow porous organic polymer (POP) nanosonosensitizer (H-Pys-HA@M/R), which combine SDT, "on-demand" chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Taking the unique advantages of POPs with designable structures and high specific surface area, this H-Pys-HA@M/R nanosonosensitizer can achieve tumor target accumulation, GSH-triggered drug release, and low-frequency ultrasound-activating ROS generation with encouraging results. Furthermore, this multifunctional nanosonosensitizer can effectively evoke immunogenic cell death (ICD) response through the combination of SDT and chemotherapy for both primary and distal tumor growth suppression. Meanwhile, H-Pys-HA@M/R exhibits favorable biodegradation and biosafety. Therefore, this study provides a new strategy for reasonably designing and constructing POP-related sonosensitizers combining SDT/chemotherapy/immunotherapy triple treatment modalities to eradicate malignant tumors.
