• Although nanoparticle‐based drug delivery systems have been widely explored for tumor‐targeted delivery of radioisotope therapy (RIT), the hypoxia zones of tumors on one hand can hardly be reached by nanoparticles with relatively large sizes due to their limited intratumoral diffusion ability, on the other hand often exhibit hypoxia‐associated resistance to radiation‐induced cell damage. To improve RIT treatment of solid tumors, herein, radionuclide 131I labeled human serum albumin (HSA)‐bound manganese dioxide nanoparticles (131I‐HSA‐MnO2) are developed as a novel RIT nanomedicine platform that is responsive to the tumor microenvironment (TME). Such 131I‐HSA‐MnO2 nanoparticles with suitable sizes during blood circulation show rather efficient tumor passive uptake owing to the enhanced permeability and retention effect, as well as little retention in other normal organs to minimize radiotoxicity. The acidic TME can trigger gradual degradation of MnO2 and thus decomposition of 131I‐HSA‐MnO2 nanoparticles into individual 131I‐HSA with sub‐10 nm sizes and greatly improves intratumoral diffusion. Furthermore, oxygen produced by MnO2‐triggered decomposition of tumor endogenous H2O2 would be helpful to relieve hypoxia‐associated RIT resistant for those tumors. As the results, the 131I‐HSA‐MnO2 nanoparticles appear to be a highly effective RIT agent showing great efficacy in tumor treatment upon systemic administration. Radionuclide 131‐I labeled human serum albumin‐bound manganese dioxide nanoparticles are developed as a novel radioisotope therapy nanomedicine platform. Both the gradual degradation of manganese dioxide in acidic tumor microenvironment and manganese dioxide‐triggered decomposition of tumor endogenous hydrogen peroxide to generate oxygen lead to the excellent radio‐therapeutic effect.
