Here we report the development of an enhanced thermosensitive formulation composed of DPPC and Brij78, loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) using a Cu²⁺ gradient and post-inserted with an additional amount of Brij78. This optimal formulation (HaT-II: Hyperthermia-activated cytoToxic) displayed significantly improved
