Despite considerable progress in patient care, the global incidence of various cancer types continues to rise. Developing safer and more efficient anti-cancer treatment approaches are great interest. In recent decades, nanotechnology has emerged as a promising innovative medical approach for diagnosis treatment. However, nanomedicine advances, it is important understand address challenges. Herein, we identify gaps current understanding effectiveness on clinical outcomes provide an outlook improved application medicine. We discuss use different nanoparticles therapy impact efficiency existing treatments, such chemotherapeutic, anti-angiogenic, immunotherapeutic drugs, radiotherapy. Additionally, update status trials nanoparticle-based treatments provided.
