However, traditional PDT faces limitations in treating deep-seated tumors, such as HCC. Copper cysteamine (Cu-Cy) serves as a novel photosensitizer that can be activated directly by X-ray irradiation. Our initial studies have demonstrated that Cu-Cy can be activated by the gamma-ray emitted by the Gamma Knife, making it effective for PDT. Subsequent results showed that combining the Gamma Knife with Cu-Cy-mediated PDT can not only effectively suppress the proliferation and migration of HCC cells but also inhibit tumor growth without obvious side effects. This study substantiates the efficacy and safety of combining Gamma Knife treatment with Cu-Cy-mediated PDT for the management of HCC, while also introducing innovative theories and strategies in therapeutic approaches.
