Abstract 3702: A novel nanoparticle-based theranostic agent targeting low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 enhances the efficacy of neoadjuvant radiotherapy in colorectal cancer

Neoadjuvant radiotherapy is becoming an important therapeutic option for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, although complete tumor response is observed only in 20 to 30% patients. However, precise biologic mechanisms underlying resistance to radiotherapy remain to be elucidated. In this study, we established a radiotherapy-resistant CRC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse model, and we discovered that low-density lipoprotein receptor-related...
