Cancer, as a serious threat to human health, is one of the major killers. The treatment of cancer has attracted more and more attention. Currently, the means of treating cancer is also increasing, but there is no emergence of a fully satisfactory treatment. A combination of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), named sono-photodynamic therapy (S-PDT), is a new composite cancer therapy. Because the therapy can significantly improve the tumor curing effect, it has good application prospects in cancer prevention and treatment. The present article reviewed the progress of the anti-tumor mechanisms and influencing factors of S-PDT.
