Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Nanoparticles have shown great potential in revolutionizing drug delivery systems for cancer treatment. This thesis aims to explore the use of nanoparticles as a targeted drug delivery approach to enhance the efficacy and reduce the side effects of cancer treatments. The research involves a comprehensive review of relevant literature on nanoparticles, cancer treatment, and drug delivery systems. Various nanoparticles, including liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, and inorganic nanoparticles, will be examined for their suitability in delivering anticancer drugs. The study will begin by introducing the background of using nanoparticles in drug delivery, followed by a detailed problem statement discussing the challenges in conventional cancer treatments and the potential benefits of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems. The objectives of the study include evaluating the effectiveness of different types of nanoparticles in delivering anticancer drugs and assessing their impact on cancer cell growth inhibition. The methodology chapter will outline the research design, materials, and methods used to synthesize and characterize nanoparticles, as well as the techniques employed to evaluate drug release profiles and cytotoxicity against cancer cells. The discussion of findings will present the results of in vitro and in vivo experiments, highlighting the efficacy of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems in suppressing tumor growth and improving therapeutic outcomes. The conclusion will summarize the key findings of the study, emphasizing the significance of using nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery in cancer treatment. The implications of this research include the potential for developing more effective and personalized cancer therapies that minimize adverse effects on healthy tissues. Overall, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems and their impact on improving cancer treatment strategies.
