Book Description:

Nanotherapeutics in Cancer Vaccination and Challenges is a comprehensive guide that consolidates the current research on cancer nanomedicine and therapeutic cancer vaccination. This book explores the most effective and promising avenues in the field, covering cancer vaccines before delving into nanotherapeutics, DNA and mRNA vaccines in cancer treatment. It also considers regulatory and industrial perspectives on cancer vaccination and nanotherapeutics.

This resource is particularly useful for pharmaceutical scientists and researchers focused on biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, vaccine development, and cancer immunotherapy, as well as advanced students in these subjects.

About Cancer:

Cancer is arguably the most complex and challenging disease known to mankind. Over the last two decades, significant advancements have been made in new and novel concepts of cancer nanomedicines. Therapeutic cancer vaccines may be utilized to inhibit further growth of advanced cancers and/or relapsed tumors that are refractory to conventional therapies, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.

Key Features:

– Presents the progress made in cancer medicines from conventional to targeted therapy

– Covers the present state-of-the-art of cancer nanomedicines and upcoming therapeutic cancer vaccination

– Contains a focus on advanced nanomaterials that are utilized for encapsulation of nucleic acid, mRNA, DNA, siRNA
