The study investigated HSP90-targeted PDT for minimally invasive treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), benign breast cancer condition that has potential to progress into breast cancer. PDT with ML8500 combined to ML7710 resulted in effective in vitro cytotoxicity and with ML7710 in vivo, which was further potentiated with PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors.
