Two in one : A novel strategy for efficiently coencapsulating both arsenic‐ and platinum‐based drugs into 100 nm‐scale liposomes (NBs) relies on the formation of Pt II –As III adducts. This co‐loaded system presents a robust platform for further modification with targeting ligands and affords a method of improving the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer agents.
