Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis investigates the exploration of novel drug delivery systems to enhance the therapeutic efficacy in cancer treatment. Cancer remains a significant challenge in healthcare due to its complexity and resistance to traditional treatment methods. Novel drug delivery systems offer promising strategies to overcome these challenges and improve the outcomes for cancer patients. This research aims to evaluate various innovative drug delivery approaches and their potential applications in cancer therapy. The introduction provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of cancer treatment, highlighting the limitations of existing therapies and the need for novel drug delivery systems. The background of the study delves into the mechanisms of cancer progression, drug resistance, and the importance of targeted drug delivery to improve treatment outcomes. The problem statement identifies the gaps in current cancer treatment approaches and emphasizes the urgency for innovative solutions. The objectives of the study focus on evaluating the efficacy of different drug delivery systems, including nanoparticles, liposomes, and targeted drug conjugates, in delivering anticancer agents to tumor sites. The limitations of the study are discussed to provide transparency and acknowledge potential constraints in the research methodology and data interpretation. The scope of the study delineates the specific focus areas and methodologies employed to achieve the research objectives. The significance of the study lies in its potential to advance the field of cancer treatment by introducing cutting-edge drug delivery systems that can improve drug bioavailability, target specificity, and reduce systemic toxicity. The structure of the thesis outlines the organization of chapters and sub-sections to guide readers through the research findings and analysis. Definitions of key terms are provided to clarify terminology used throughout the thesis. The literature review chapter critically examines existing research on novel drug delivery systems in cancer treatment, highlighting their advantages, challenges, and potential for clinical translation.
