Abstract
Cancer drug delivery remains a critical challenge with systemic toxicity, poor drug bioavailability, and a lack of effective targeting. Overcoming these barriers is essential for improving treatment efficacy and patient outcomes. This review discusses current drug delivery techniques that reshape cancer therapy by offering precise, controlled-release tailored to tumor-specific features. Innovations in nanotechnology, immunotherapy, and gene therapy enable interventions at molecular and cellular levels. Radiomics and pathomics integrate high-dimensional data to optimize diagnostics and treatment planning. Combination therapy addresses the complexities of tumor heterogeneity by synergizing multiple agents within…
