The present invention relates to a polymer composite for ultrasound-based cancer immunotherapy, which comprises an peroxalate derivatives, and a preparation method thereof. The polymer composite according to the present invention is a structure in which the peroxalate derivatives are encapsulated in an amphipathic polymer compound in which a biocompatible polymer and a sonosensitizer are combined. The peroxalate derivatives produce free electrons and carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) by reaction with a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H.sub.2O.sub.2) in cancer tissue, the generated electrons raise the energy level of the sonosensitizer in the polymer composite to increase the amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, thereby exhibiting an effect of increasing the death rate of cancer cells. In addition, by ultrasound treatment, immunogenic cell death (ICD) is induced due to the cavitation effect of the produced CO.sub.2, so molecules capable of activating immune cells in cancer cells are released without damage to induce an immune response to cancer. Therefore, the polymer composite according to the present invention is expected to be effectively used as an ultrasound-based cancer immunotherapeutic agent.
