Drug Delivery Landscape in Cancer Research examines the combined impact of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. With a strong focus on the status, challenges, and prospects of cancer drug delivery technology, the book examines clinical translation-related knowledge and the development of different organ related cancers. In 22 chapters, it describes current and new drug delivery systems in twenty different cancers and gives insights into drug delivery strategies and tumor microenvironment management in oral and ocular cancers. This book is a timely and valuable resource for health professionals, scientists, researchers, health practitioners, students, and anyone who wants to broaden their knowledge.
