Nanoformulation Strategies for Cancer Treatment provides an up-to-date review on current developments and regulatory and clinical challenges in the field of nanopharmaceuticals and the effective treatment of diverse varieties of cancer. This important reference source is ideal for biomaterials scientists and pharmaceutical scientists working in the area of cancer diagnosis and therapy. Due to the high cost of traditional cancer treatment types, researchers have increasingly looked for new ways to augment the therapeutic performance of existing drug candidates. The use of nanotechnology-based approaches have gained significant momentum, thus leading to the launch of a series of new drug products. As nanopharmaceuticals improve the therapeutic performance of cancer therapy drugs, but also provide opportunities for site-specific drug targeting in tumors, this work is a welcomed resource on the topics discussed. - Highlights the application of nanoformulations, including liposomes, nanoparticles and nanobiomaterials for targeted drug delivery to cancer cells - Explores recent advances made using novel nanoformulations containing herbal drugs and biotechnology based therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment - Assesses the regulatory hurdles that are necessary for the successful clinical translation of nanomedicines from the laboratory into the market
