This book focuses on the emerging research in the field of treatment of solid tumors or cancer with new drug delivery systems using nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has given us a good scope for development of new innovative drug delivery strategies to increase the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs with reduced off-target side effects. Cancer is one of the main causes of death worldwide due to the limitations of classical therapies such as low solubility of active drugs, toxic side effects on healthy cells and resistance of tumor cells.

This book focuses on the emerging research in the field of treatment of solid tumors or cancer with new drug delivery systems using nanotechnology. Nanotechnology has given us a good scope for development of new innovative drug delivery strategies to increase the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs with reduced off-target side effects. Cancer is one of the main causes of death worldwide due to the limitations of classical therapies such as low solubility of active drugs, toxic side effects on healthy cells and resistance of tumor cells. These issues are partly solved by the recent development of polymeric nanoparticles, which improve drug absorption and the therapeutic index, while reducing side effects. Drug carriers must be biocompatible, biodegradable and non-immunogenic. Coupled to a ligand that has affinity for that particular cell, polymeric nanoparticles are used to target specifically malignant cells or tissues and, in turn, improve drug stability. This book presentsthe latest advances in the application of polymeric particles for cancer treatment, with focus on the tumor microenvironment, synthesis, active and passive targeting, patents, targeting over-expressed receptors, tumor-targeting ligands, theranostics, glioblastoma tumors, lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and pH-responsive nanoparticles

¿Dr. Santwana Padhi did her PhD from Department of Pharmaceutics, Jamia Hamdard with a core expertise in cancer nanotherapeutics. Her research interest focuses on pre-clinical and clinical studies related to the drug entrapped targeted nanosystems for amelioration of solid tumors, design and evaluation of antibiotic loaded microparticles embedded polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering and formulation, optimization of different process variables for loading different drugs in biodegradable nanomatrices for enhancing the entrapment efficiency. Prior to her doctoral degree, she worked as a research assistant at National Institute of Immunology (NII). She worked as a MSL in Biocon in oncology and dermatology domain. Presently she is working as a Scientific Officer at KIIT TBI and freelance editor in Manuscript Edit. She was granted senior research fellowship (SRF) from ICMR, junior research fellowship (JRF) from DBT and Award of Excellence for scientific contribution from Jamia Hamdard University for two consecutive years. She has more than 4 years of research experience, mentored more than 5 postgraduate and 10 undergraduate students and has published research articles and review articles in peer reviewed journals. Dr. Anindita Behera is Associate Professor, Department of Pharmaceutical Analaysis, Siksha O Anusandhan Deemed to be Universtity.
