Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most common and malignant brain tumors, with a high prevalence in elderly population. Most chemotherapeutic agents fail to reach the tumor site due to various challenges. However, smart nanocarriers have demonstrated excellent drug-loading capabilities, enabling them to cross the blood brain tumor barrier for the GBM treatment. Surface modification of nanocarriers has significantly enhanced their potential for targeting therapeutics. Moreover, recent innovations in drug therapies, such as the incorporation of theranostic agents in nanocarriers and antibody-drug conjugates, have offered newer insights for both diagnosis and treatment. This review focuses on recent advances in new therapeutic interventions for GBM, with an emphasis on the nanotheranostics systems to maximize therapeutic and diagnostic outcomes.
期刊介绍：
Delivering therapeutics in a way that is right for the patient - safe, painless, reliable, targeted, efficient and cost effective - is the fundamental aim of scientists working in this area. Correspondingly, this evolving field has already yielded a diversity of delivery methods, including injectors, controlled release formulations, drug eluting implants and transdermal patches. Rapid technological advances and the desire to improve the efficacy and safety profile of existing medications by specific targeting to the site of action, combined with the drive to improve patient compliance, continue to fuel rapid research progress. Furthermore, the emergence of cell-based therapeutics and biopharmaceuticals such as proteins, peptides and nucleotides presents scientists with new and exciting challenges for the application of therapeutic delivery science and technology. Successful delivery strategies increasingly rely upon collaboration across a diversity of fields, including biology, chemistry, pharmacology, nanotechnology, physiology, materials science and engineering. Therapeutic Delivery recognizes the importance of this diverse research platform and encourages the publication of articles that reflect the highly interdisciplinary nature of the field. In a highly competitive industry, Therapeutic Delivery provides the busy researcher with a forum for the rapid publication of original research and critical reviews of all the latest relevant and significant developments, and focuses on how the technological, pharmacological, clinical and physiological aspects come together to successfully deliver modern therapeutics to patients. The journal delivers this essential information in concise, at-a-glance article formats that are readily accessible to the full spectrum of therapeutic delivery researchers.
