Metronomic photodynamic therapy using an implantable LED device and orally administered 5-aminolevulinic acid

Abstract Metronomic photodynamic therapy (mPDT) is a form of PDT that induces cancer cell death by intermittent continuous irradiation with a relatively weak power of light for a long duration (several days). We previously developed a wirelessly powered, fully implantable LED device and reported a s...
