Core Tip |
Polymeric micelle-based drug delivery has demonstrated promising therapeutic outcomes against colorectal cancer. These safe nanocarriers exhibit high encapsulation efficiency of chemotherapeutic drugs, improve their water solubility and enhance the stability of nucleic acid-based therapeutics. They also accumulate preferentially at colorectal cancer sites, increase the anticancer effect of the delivered therapeutics and reduce their side effects. Incorporating stimuli-responsive and tumor targeting moieties to their structure further enhances their targeting and therapeutic efficacy. This platform also provides an opportunity to simultaneously deliver different chemotherapeutic drugs or nucleic acid-based therapeutics with chemotherapeutic drugs to the colorectal tumor to achieve an enhanced anticancer response. |
