Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Concerning the transformative potential of nanotechnology in revolutionizing cancer treatment, the convergence of nanomedicine, radiotherapy, and theragnostics is at the forefront of this revolution, offering unprecedented improvements in therapeutic efficacy and patient outcomes. Key topics include the development of targeted therapies using antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) and innovative drug delivery systems. Nanoparticle–biomolecule conjugates, such as gold nanoparticles, are highlighted for their role in enhancing the precision of radiopharmaceuticals and improving the targeting of cancer cells. Integrating nanotechnology with traditional cancer treatments aims to provide real-time imaging and theragnostic capabilities, allowing for more accurate monitoring and adjustment of therapies. The issue also investigates the latest advancements in nanomedicine, focusing on how these technologies address unmet medical needs by offering more effective and less invasive treatment options. The combined use of radiotherapy and nanotechnology examines the potential for significantly improving the quality of life of cancer patients, showcasing how these innovative approaches can lead to better outcomes and more personalized treatment plans. This Special Issue provides a comprehensive overview of how innovative nanotechnology is shaping the future of cancer therapy, highlighting the critical advancements and their implications for clinical practice.
