Cancer stem cells (CSCs) possess self-renewal and clonal tumor initiation capacities, which lead to drug resistance and tumor recurrence. In this work, a hypoxia-stimulated strategy based on a smart triblock vector was developed to enhance therapeutic efficacy through the inhibition of cancer stemness. The triblock precursor was designed with a fluorescence chromophore for monitoring hypoxia, a methoxy nitro-unit for biorecognition, and a poly(ethylene glycol)-folate for cancer cell targeting. As the degree of hypoxia increases, the
