## Abstract Despite advances in controlled drug delivery, reliable methods for activatable, high‐resolution control of drug release are needed. The hypothesis that the photothermal effect mediated by a near‐infrared (NIR) laser and hollow gold nanospheres (HAuNSs) could modulate the release of anti
