Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with conventional treatments often causing detrimental side effects due to non-specific targeting of cancer cells. The development of a novel drug delivery system for targeted cancer therapy presents a promising solution to enhance treatment efficacy while minimizing adverse effects. This thesis focuses on the design, development, and evaluation of a sophisticated drug delivery system tailored for precise targeting of cancer cells. The system incorporates advanced technologies to improve drug delivery efficiency, enhance therapeutic outcomes, and reduce systemic toxicity. Chapter 1 provides a comprehensive introduction to the research study, offering insights into the background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of terms. The chapter sets the foundation for understanding the rationale behind developing a novel drug delivery system for targeted cancer therapy. Chapter 2 delves into a detailed literature review encompassing ten critical aspects related to drug delivery systems, cancer therapy, targeted drug delivery, nanotechnology, and current advancements in the field. This chapter synthesizes existing knowledge and identifies gaps that warrant further investigation. Chapter 3 outlines the research methodology employed in designing and evaluating the novel drug delivery system. It encompasses various components such as formulation development, characterization techniques, in vitro and in vivo studies, pharmacokinetic assessments, and safety evaluations. The methodology elucidates the systematic approach adopted to achieve the research objectives. Chapter 4 presents an in-depth discussion of the findings derived from the experimental investigations conducted on the novel drug delivery system. The chapter evaluates the efficacy, specificity, and safety of the system in targeting cancer cells, highlighting key outcomes, challenges encountered, and potential areas for improvement. Chapter 5 concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications of the research outcomes, and offering recommendations for future research directions. The conclusion underscores the significance of developing targeted drug delivery systems in revolutionizing cancer therapy and improving patient outcomes. Overall, this thesis contributes to the advancement of cancer treatment through the development of a novel drug delivery system that holds immense potential for targeted therapy. By combining cutting-edge technologies with a focus on precision targeting, the research aims to address the limitations of current cancer treatments and pave the way for more effective and personalized cancer therapies.
