Clinically, multimodal therapies are adopted worldwide for the management of cancer, which continues to be a leading cause death. In recent years, immunotherapy has firmly established itself as new paradigm in cancer care that activates body's immune defense cope with cancer. Immunotherapy resulted significant breakthroughs treatment stubborn tumors, dramatically improving clinical outcome patients. Multiple forms immunotherapy, including checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), adoptive cell therapy and vaccines, have become widely available. However, effectiveness these immunotherapies is not much satisfying. Many patients do respond disease recurrence appears unavoidable because rapidly evolving resistance. Moreover, can give rise severe off-target immune-related adverse events. Strategies remove hindrances mainly focus on development combinatorial or exploitation novel immunotherapeutic mediations. Nanomaterials carrying anticancer agents target site considered practical approaches treatment. Nanomedicine combined offers possibility potentiate systemic antitumor immunity facilitate selective cytotoxicity against cells an effective safe manner. A myriad nano-enabled currently under investigation. Owing gaps between preclinical studies, nano-immunotherapy faces multiple challenges, biosafety nanomaterials trial design. this review, we provide overview summarize evidence indicating how nanomedicine-based increase efficacy immunotherapies.

Over the past decades, lipid-based nanoparticle drug delivery systems (DDS) have caught attention of researchers worldwide, encouraging field to rapidly develop improved ways for effective delivery. One most prominent examples is liposomes, which are spherical shaped artificial vesicles composed lipid bilayers and able encapsulate both hydrophilic hydrophobic materials. At same time, biological nanoparticles naturally secreted by cells, called extracellular (EVs), emerged as promising more complex biocompatible DDS. In this review paper, differences similarities in composition evaluated, critical mediators that affect their pharmacokinetics elucidate. Different strategies been assessed tweak liposomes EVs explored, detailing effects on circulation targeting capacity, cytoplasmic therapeutic cargo. Finally, whether a hybrid system, consisting combination only constituents vesicles, could offer best worlds discussed. Through these topics, novel leads further research provided and, importantly, gain insight what liposome EV can learn from each other.

RNA interference (RNAi) uses small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to mediate gene-silencing in cells and represents an emerging strategy for cancer therapy. Successful RNAi-mediated gene silencing requires overcoming multiple physiological barriers achieve efficient delivery of siRNAs into vivo, including tumor and/or host the micro-environment (TME). Consequently, lipid polymer-based nanoparticle siRNA systems have been developed surmount these barriers.
