A pH‐responsive dendrimer templated polymer‐calcium phosphate core shell nanostructure is developed. Upon exposure to cellular lysosomal pH, a guest anticancer drug is released from the nanocapsule by dissolution of the CaP shell. Such a stimuli responsive carrier enables on‐demand controlled release of drugs in acidic organelles.
