Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Cancer remains a significant health challenge worldwide, necessitating the continuous exploration of innovative treatment strategies. This thesis focuses on the development of novel drug delivery systems for targeted cancer therapy, aiming to enhance treatment efficacy while minimizing adverse effects on healthy tissues. The research encompasses a comprehensive literature review, research methodology, discussion of findings, and conclusion. The introduction provides a background of the study, highlighting the increasing prevalence of cancer and the limitations of current treatment modalities. The problem statement underscores the urgent need for targeted therapies to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. The objectives of the study include designing and optimizing drug delivery systems for specific cancer types, evaluating their efficacy in preclinical models, and assessing their potential clinical translation. The literature review delves into ten key aspects, including the challenges of conventional cancer treatments, the principles of targeted drug delivery, the role of nanotechnology in cancer therapy, and recent advancements in the field. Through this review, the thesis builds a theoretical framework for the development of novel drug delivery systems tailored to cancer-specific molecular targets. The research methodology outlines the experimental approach, including the synthesis and characterization of drug carriers, in vitro and in vivo evaluation of drug release kinetics and targeting efficiency, and the assessment of therapeutic outcomes in relevant cancer models. Key components of the methodology include the selection of appropriate cell lines, animal models, and analytical techniques to validate the efficacy and safety of the developed drug delivery systems. In the discussion of findings, the thesis presents and interprets the experimental results, emphasizing the optimization of drug carrier properties for enhanced tumor accumulation, controlled drug release, and targeted cellular uptake. The implications of these findings for improving cancer treatment outcomes and reducing systemic toxicity are discussed in detail, highlighting the potential clinical impact of the developed drug delivery systems. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the field of cancer therapy by proposing innovative strategies for targeted drug delivery that have the potential to revolutionize treatment paradigms. The summary encapsulates the key findings, implications, and future directions for research and development in the field of novel drug delivery systems for targeted cancer therapy. In summary, this thesis elucidates the importance of developing novel drug delivery systems for targeted cancer therapy and provides valuable insights into the design, optimization, and evaluation of such systems. The findings of this research have the potential to significantly impact cancer treatment strategies and improve patient outcomes, paving the way for personalized and effective therapies in the fight against cancer.
