Recent innovations in nanomedicine and nano-based techniques for the treatment of breast cancer

Abstract

Breast cancer (BC) is a persistent global health challenge, necessitating innovative therapeutic strategies. Recently, nanotechnology has appeared as a transformative methodology to treat BC, suggesting precise targeting, controlled drug delivery, and improved imaging capabilities. This review offers a current overview of the latest innovations around nanotechnology for BC therapy in the field of new nanomedicines and nano-based drug delivery methods by carefully examining the utilization of nanoparticles to enhance the effectiveness of both new and old medications and to enable targeted evaluation using disease markers. Key topics include early detection, targeted drug delivery, multimodal imaging, and combination therapies. The paper underscores the probability of using nanotechnology to reshape BC management landscape and outlines potential future directions.
