Systemic Drug Delivery Strategies: 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 various technologies of effective drug delivery strategies. Immuno-oncology (IO) is a rapidly evolving field 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, which are clinically approved for cancer treatment.

Although IO approaches have shown significant promise for certain types of cancers, broader application of IO strategies could further enhance clinical success, particularly for diseases like pancreatic cancer and brain tumors, where IO has had limited success so far. This volume of Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy discusses methods of targeting tumors, CRISPR technology, and vaccine delivery, among other delivery strategies.

Systemic Drug Delivery Strategies: Delivery Strategies and Engineering Technologies in Cancer Immunotherapy, Volume 2 serves as a comprehensive treaty that engages the scientific and medical community involved in the challenges of immunology, cancer biology, and therapeutics with possible solutions from the nanotechnology and drug delivery side.

This book provides a thorough exploration of all aspects of immuno-oncology, including novel strategies for delivery of IO therapeutics and vaccines, and forecasts the future of nanotechnology and drug delivery for IO.

Key Features:

• Comprehensive treaty covering all aspects of immuno-oncology (IO)
• Novel strategies for delivery of IO therapeutics and vaccines
• Forecasting on the future of nanotechnology and drug delivery for IO
