Drug-delivery systems of phytochemicals as therapeutic strategies in cancer therapy

Phytochemicals and derivatives have become promising alternatives to increase treatment potential in cancer patients with minimal side effects. Drug-delivery Systems of Phytochemicals as Therapeutic Strategies in Cancer Therapy elucidates the importance of various phytochemicals in cancer therapy and explains various routes/methods to deliver phytochemicals for overcoming the problems associated with delivery system in cancer treatment. Several nanotechnological methods are followed to enhance drug solubility, sustainability, bioavailability and gastrointestinal permeability of these phytochemicals. The advanced field of drug-delivery systems explains that combination therapy for cancer treatment has important benefits over mono-delivery therapeutics. Natural compounds, because of their biobased origin, have drawn higher attention than synthetic drugs. Synthesis of nano-phytomedicines has impacted the bioavailability of phytochemicals. Novel formulations have been synthesized loaded with phytochemicals and have revealed extraordinary results in treatment of various cancers. Current understanding of the relevant information presented in Drug-delivery systems of phytochemicals as therapeutic strategies in cancer therapy fulfils the requirements of oncologists, molecular biologists, pharmacologist and related researchers, who want to work in the areas of drug development targeting phytochemicals for cancer therapy- Explains the significance of phytochemicals in cancer therapy, along with their pharmacologic action- Elucidates the importance of various phytochemicals in cancer therapy- Explains the emerging need of drug-delivery system for plant metabolites- Deciphers the various drug-delivery systems for phytomedicines involved in cancer treatments- Describes the crucial role of nanotechnology in the development of drug-delivery systems for anticancer phytochemicals- Explores the challenges associated with developing drug-delivery systems for phytochemicals to cure cancer
