A Review on Nanocarriers for Cancer Targeted Drug Delivery

Nanoparticles in the drugs are useful for the treatment of cancer due to their unique properties and can act as drug carriers in different ways. Unlike the traditional chemotherapy, the entrance of nanotechnology enabled wide applications in treatment of cancer. Although nanoparticles provides safe and effective drug delivery systems but the factor of toxicity still limits the utilisation of several nanoparticles. The properties of nanodrug carriers are controllable by various factors. The use of nanoparticles in cancer therapy by drug delivery and their advantages as been reviewed.
