For enhanced anti-cancer treatment, mTOR-targeting strategy can be combined with DNA/RNA-targeting anti-cancer therapies (A), mTOR partner inhibition (B), TME-targeting immunotherapy (C), anti-tumor immunity activation through M1 macrophage polarization or T cell activation (D), and advanced drug delivery system using virus, nanoparticles, or nanovesicles (E).
