Abstract: | Imaging‐guided therapy systems (IGTSs) are revolutionary techniques used in cancer treatment due to their safety and efficiency. IGTSs should have tunable compositions for bioimaging, a suitable size and shape for biotransfer, sufficient channels and/or pores for drug loading, and intrinsic biocompatibility. Here, a biocompatible nanoscale zirconium‐porphyrin metal–organic framework (NPMOF)‐based IGTS that is prepared using a microemulsion strategy and carefully tuned reaction conditions is reported. A high content of porphyrin (59.8%) allows the achievement of efficient fluorescent imaging and photodynamic therapy (PDT). The 1D channel of the Kagome topology of NPMOFs provides a 109% doxorubicin loading and pH‐response smart release for chemotherapy. The fluorescence guiding of the chemotherapy‐and‐PDT dual system is confirmed by the concentration of NPMOFs at cancer sites after irradiation with a laser and doxorubicin release, while low toxicity is observed in normal tissues. NPMOFs are established as a promising platform for the early diagnosis of cancer and initial therapy. |
