This animal and in vitro study reports a method to lyse tumor cells mechanically using targeted superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles rotated by a weak alternating magnetic field. Nude mice with head and neck tumors received cetuximab-coated nanoparticles and 4 Hz field exposures for 30 minutes on alternating…
