Engineering Technologies and Clinical Translation: Volume 3 – A Comprehensive Guide to Cancer Immunotherapy

Authored by Mansoor M. Amiji, this book delves into the challenges of delivering immuno-oncology therapies, focusing on the development of solutions for drug delivery and its clinical outcomes. Immuno-oncology (IO) is a rapidly evolving field of medicine that combines immunology and cancer biology, leading to the development of novel therapeutic approaches such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) and immune checkpoint blockade antibodies.

While currently approved IO approaches have shown significant promise for select types of cancers, the broad application of IO strategies could further improve clinical success, particularly for diseases such as pancreatic cancer and brain tumors, where the success of IO has been limited so far. This volume of Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy discusses various technologies including biomaterial, microfluidic, and biodegradable devices, engineered microbes, personalized medicine, clinical approval process, and many other IO technologies.

Engineering Technologies and Clinical Translation: Volume 3 – Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy creates a comprehensive treaty that engages the scientific and medical community who are involved in the challenges of immunology, cancer biology, and therapeutics with possible solutions from the nanotechnology and drug delivery side. It explores engineering technologies and their clinical translation in a comprehensive way, presents forecasting on the future of nanotechnology and drug delivery for IO, and engages the scientific and medical community who are involved in the challenges of immunology, cancer biology, and therapeutics with possible solutions from the nanotechnology and drug delivery side.
